AIR 3.9 - mobile app starling, pure as project and interstitial ads forces close

Hi there,
we have a pure as project in which we updatet the air version to 3.9.
The app uses starling and the admob extension - > http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/admob-ane-android.html
If an admob interstitial is shown the app crashes and starts again.
With AIR 3.8 there is no problem with this.
Perhaps it has also something to do with this bug:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3364803
The debugger shows nothing, the app only shows a black screen after closing the interstitial ad and restarts.
We also have interstitial ads in a project that is not pure as and we use AIR 3.9 in this app. No problem here.
We don't use starling in this non pure as project so perhaps the issue has something to do with starling. The strange thing is that it worked nicely with AIR 3.8.
Some ideas?

Hi, are you sure the issue has been resolved?
I am using the Admob from the Alchemy. The thing is, i come across the crash report more and more often from the users, as stated in the thread.
Do you mind sharing some codes how to display admob ads?
Can i just use the code at the beginning of the app, as below?(do i need to stop starling or sth?) Thanks in advance.
var adMobManager:AdMobManager = AdMobManager.manager;
if(adMobManager.isSupported)
          adMobManager.bannersAdMobId = "ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx";
          adMobManager.createBanner(AdMobSize.SMART_BANNER,    AdMobPosition.BOTTOM_CENTER,"BottomBanner",null,true);
          adMobManager.showAllBanner();

Duplicate session error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with CF10

We're getting the "duplicate session" error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with Coldfusion 10 Standard.
faultCode:Server.Processing.DuplicateSessionDetected faultString:'Detected duplicate HTTP-based FlexSessions,
generally due to the remote host disabling session cookies.
Session cookies must be enabled to manage the client connection correctly.' faultDetail:'null'
Have read most of the docs about this error -all to do with LCDS
Notes:
Not using LCDS,
No Remote Calls from loaded Sub-Apps,
No Errors from the Flex Web App which is pretty much identical and calls the same cfcs.
The error does not happen all the time and is hard to reproduce - say 5% of app sessions at a guess.
Could it be a two first time remote calls hitting the server together before a session is set up?
Our remoteObjects are in two places 1) Main Application.mxml and within a class compiled into the main app - can't see how this would be an issue.
I enabled session management for the CFCs in Application.cfc but still occurs. Is this neccessary - it's not in any docs?
Could this be something to do with the app not being shut down - as is typical with mobile users? When they resume use after a day or two surely a new session will be created?
Please advise thank you.

For our profect I think this issue was caused as follows:
Believing that remoting was full asynchronous we fired a 2 or 3 remote calls to the server at the same time ( within the same function ) - usually when the users goes to a new section of the app.
This seemed to trigger the duplicate http session error since according to http://blogs.adobe.com/lin/2011/05/duplication-session-error.html two remote calls arriving before a session is created will cause 2 sessions to be created.
Our current solution ( too early to say it works ) is to daisy chain the multiple calls together .
Also there seemed to be an issue where mobile apps that never quit ( thanks Apple! ) caused the error when activated after a few hours.
I guess the session expires on the server and the error above occurs on activation.
So the mobile apps now ping the server with a remote call when activated after sleeping for more than one hour.
All duplicate http errors are silently caught and reported.
Fingers crossed we won't get any more!

The error is occured that Spooler SubSystem App has encountered a problem and needs to be close.

When, I give the print option in my printer HP Laser Jet 1005, the error is occured that Spooler SubSystem App has encountered a problem and needs to be close. And the Computer is hanged. Kindly give me the suggestion to short out the problem. Kindly give me the reply in my e-mail I.D - {Personal Information Removed}

For those who still have this problem, I found the solution on this forum -thanks MP2000 (see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board/message?board.id=Networking&message.id=839#M839)
Go to the computer that the HP F4280 printer is connected to.
Click on Start --> Printer and Faxes
Right click on HP Deskjet F4280 and select Properties
Click on Advanced tab
Uncheck "Enable advanced printing features"
click OK
And it works!

Hi Darr4425,
That's not good! We definitely want your device to work properly at all times. What email application are you attempting to open? When did the issue start? Do you receive an error message when the application force closes?
Thanks,

Mobile apps in pure AS3

Hi there,
I'm wondering what components (such as list control, buttons, date picker and so on) others are using when they develop pure AS3 mobile apps for IOS. Is there a book that you can suggest for me to help understand how components are built in AS3?
Thanks

If you want performance you'll need to use Stage3D to utilize the GPU. The flash/flex display list will never match the speed of Stage3D. The mx and spark components will never feel as 'native' as coding in objective-c until they literally transcode from AS3(4?) to Obj-c and compile to arm. Spark is more optimized than mx so it does make MXML (Flex) a viable alternative. It certainly does not feel native however.
You should really consider how 'native' you need it to feel. People, I find, are quite tolerant. You may be trying to overachieve in an area that less important than the actual functionality your app provides. Users will use an interface that's not buttery smooth if you actually provide a service they desire.
Pure code is just if you really want to do everything yourself. There's really little out there to help you. The essence of going the "pure AS3" is that you are going to code it all yourself. All my projects aside 2 are pure AS3 and I rely on Starling/FeathersUI heavily to provide the closest to "native like" feel. For the only truely "native like" feel, you'll need to code entirely on the GPU.
There's nothing built-in like Flex shares data view to view. If you go pure as3 and write your app all on your own terms then simply keep that desire in mind from the start and code yout hand made view system to either pass references to the data or make a singleton registry to share data. Overall, in pure as3, be prepared to do it all manually. You have little to none of the automation of Flex.

Possible to pack Air runtime with mobile app?

Many friends told me if my mobile app need something else to be installed to run, they will quit. I think unless most mobiles installed Air runtime in the future. We must make the installation more user-friendly.
Can I pack the runtime together with app? Or is ther another work around?

Flex 4.6 / Air 3.0 introduced Captive Runtime, which is exactly what you are requesting. You choose the version of Flex/Air to be included in your app and it is bundled into the build. This has been the only option for iOS, but is now available for Android as well. When exporting a release build of your project in the newest version of Flash Builder, there is an option in the Deployment tab to "Export application with captive runtime".

How to implement OData based BASIC Authentication using HTML, JavaScript for Mobile Apps using Apache Cordova/PhoneGap and datajs-1.1.1.js library

Hello,
I have an issue with OData based BASIC authentication for iOS App created using HTML, JavaScript, SAP UI5, OData and Apache Cordova/PhoneGap.
Please check the post here http://scn.sap.com/thread/3527245
Request you to kindly reply on the above given link.
Thanks and Regards,
Suraj Kumar

Hello Prathik,
The code which I am using for OData based BASIC Authentication, for my Mobile App is as below.
   var onSuccess = function(data) {
   alert("We are Through"); //Just to check that the OData request was sucessful
   var onError = function(err) {
   switch(err.response.statusCode) {
   case 403 : {
   window.alert("Error Code - 403, Service unreachable ");
   break;
   case 401 : {
   window.alert("The credentials are incorrect or missing!");
   break;
// dataUserName and dataPassword are the two variables, in which I am storing my Username and Password, respectively.
   var connectionRequest = {
   requestUri: "ODATA SERVICE URL GOES HERE/",
   headers: { Authorization : 'Basic ' + Base64.encode(dataUsername + ":" + dataPassword) },
   method: "POST"
   OData.request( connectionRequest, onSuccess, onError);

Why are the creative cloud mobile apps only available for iphone and ipad? I need Android based apps

Where are the android based mobile apps? Why do you people assume everyone uses a ipad or iphone
I want android mobile apps!

this didn't actually answer my question. The feature request link you sent me to didn't have the mobile apps for creative cloud listed Adobe Idea, Adobe Sketch and Ink and Slide they aren't available for android tablets and Android Phones. These aren't even available for Windows tablets. But they aren't available in the feature request section either.

Will there be mobile Apps for windows 8 / 8RT and Android? And if so, when?

Does anybody know, if there are plans to bring the new mobile Apps to windows 8 and Android tablets?
I'm very disappointed of Adobe, that they made them only available for ipad users. A samsung galaxy note or a windows 8 tablet would be much more useful for working with them, because of the pen and the higher computing power.
I won't subscribe to creative cloud, until I can use the mobile Apps on my microsoft surface RT!
This whole, 'only iOS Apps' thing is sooo annoying...

That is a very disappointing answer. So I don't know, if I can use my surface for working, until adobe releases the apps. And if they don't, I suffer.

Can't download new apps and lots of force closes since iOS7. Help!

Since the iOS7 mandatory update I have not been able to download new apps via my iPad mini or by connecting the device to my computer. Apps on my mini also force close frequently, specifically Gmail, Candy Crush, and Facebook. Any advice?

I have long since fixed the problem by resetting my iPad, but I wanted you to know that my question was not vague. I could not download anything directly to my iPad or by syncing it to my computer. No detail required; it just didn't work. This surprised me since everyone raves about how great Apple products are. Might as well have bought a Surface.
Also, force closes continue to be a problem for me. Resetting seems to be the only solution for this, too. I just hold he Home button and the Capture button until the apple appears then it boots up again.

Reduce size of Air runtime for mobile apps

Flash & Air are fantastic for create Android apps
but most of user don't have Air Runtime package on their phones and we must embed this in publish
unfortunately the size of adobe air runtime is about 8 MB ! and with slow internet it take long time to download the apps , and even for getting this apps with Bluetooth
is there any chance to reduce size of Adobe Air Runtime ?
or create various version of Air runtime , for example in most project we don't need play video or sound ...

This has been asked before several times. I doubt you will get a procedure from NI on how to do this since the run-time engine is intended to be a collection of libraries to be used by various types of LabVIEW apps.
That said, it doesn mean that users haven't tried to figure out how to do it. Note: I do not recommend this practice nor can I speak to its effectiveness since I've never tried it.

Need HTTPService and play video in flex 4.6 Air Mobile App

We are porting a flex 3.2 app to mobile app. The 3.2 app uses mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to send XML requests for data and launch video web pages. Will a flex 4.6 Air Mobile app be able to do the same? If so, what replaces mx.rpc.http.HTTPService? I read that mx components will not work in Flex mobile apps.

HI,
Its working fine.And the mxml components which are displayobject should not be used in the mobile application except the chart.
So nothing wrong with using "mx.rpc.http.HTTPService",you can also use <s:HTTPService/>
Also there is a nice way to see which components should be used or which not for the mobile application.
Simply mouse over on the component when you have used it.You can see a message on that if that is not optimized for the mobile application like for the combobox you can see this message:-
"Adobe discourages using ComboBox when targeting profiles: mobileDevice."
While this is not the case with <s:HTTPService/>.

How can I demo my mobile app on a web page? or standalone

Is there a way to show my Flex mobile app in a browser? either on a web page or standalone is ok.
I'm using Flash Builder 4.6 to build a mobile app for iOs (iphone 4) and when I debug it, it shows the program in a window like the phone,
Is there a way to wrap this up and give it to someone to run in a Flash-player-browser-like window?
thanks!
steve

You can do something similar to this by using Export Release Build and instructing FB to Export as "Signed AIR Package for installation on desktop"
This will create a file that can be installed on a computer and behaves much like a debugger execution. A few caveats are that the user will need to resize the window manually to match a "phone size" and mobile features (camera, gps, accelerometer, etc) will either be unavailable or behave very differently than on an actual phone (depending on your code implementation).
Still, for most apps, this will give your audience a good feel of what your app will be like when released on the phone market/store.

Mobile App - CS4

Hi, I am trying to make a mobile phone application with CS4. I have a couple questions:
1. Do I need to install a new framework to get touch events and accelerometer properties working?
2. Do I need to include some sort of flash player 10.1 plug in with my files to make it work properly on mobile phones?
3. Can I simply make a normal as3 project, with a .fla made in Flash CS4, and have mouse events work as finger presses for a touch screen phone?
Thanks

I'm not quite sure it can be done so "simply" as all that-- Adobe had to engineer a special 'app packager' utility for the iPhone in Flash CS5, and I believe (thanks largely to Steve Jobs and his infamous iOS 4 terms of service clause 3.3.1) that they are working on an analogous utility for packaging Android apps now. Since I don't know exactly how these utilities work I can't comment on whether they are absolutely necessary for mobile app creation or merely a convenience, but it seems likely that given the complex and highly disparate architecture of mobile devices these special utilities probably are necessary for creating apps out of AS3 projects (and therefore you'll probably need Flash CS5). It would be quite interesting if my conjecture is wrong and there is a way to package apps for mobile devices without any special utility; I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this thread for Adobe official replies!
<edit>
I just saw this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/696642?tstart=0
It seems from the tutorial vid linked in the last post that you can create apps for Android via Adobe AIR, so perhaps (for Android devices at least) CS4 would suffice... I can't listen to the sound now so for all I know the first words could be 'you need CS5 for this to work' but from the visuals it looks promising. Take a look!

Move Mobile Apps Folder To External Drive?

Hi guys,
I've got a MacBook Pro running Lion with all the latest software / updates. This has become my secondary machine (since buying a lovely 27" iMac), and I'm using iTunes Match to keep both the MacBook Pro and iMac's iTunes libraries in sync.
Now that I sync my iPhone and iPad to the iMac, I don't have much need for the Mobile Apps folder on my MacBook Pro. I have a lot of apps, so my Mobile Apps folder is ~50 gigs, and it's suddenly one of the larger items on the MacBook Pro's drive. Would it be possible to relocate this folder to my external drive for the MacBook Pro? I found an older suggestion (to move the Mobile Apps folder, and create a shortcut in the iTunes folder pointing back to me new location), but this didn't work at all.
Is this do-able? As as alternate, can I just delete all the Apps from my MacBook Pro's iTunes library (from within the app) without screwing up the syncing or (via iTunes Match) inadvertantly deleting them all from the iMac as well?
Thanks!

How to use an SSD with your HDD
If you are going to use an SSD as a boot drive together with your existing HDD as the "data" drive, here's what you can do.
After installing the SSD you will need to partition and format the SSD using Disk Utility. Then, install OS X on the SSD. After OS X has been installed boot from the SSD. Use Startup Disk preferences to set the SSD as the startup volume.
Open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock icon and authenticate. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on your user account listing in the sidebar and select Advanced Options from the context menu.
You will see a field labeled "Home dir:" At the right end you will see a Change button. Click on it. In the file dialog locate the Home folder now located on the HDD (HDD/Users/account_name/.) Select the folder, click on Open button. Restart the computer as directed.
When the computer boots up it will now be using the Home folder located on the HDD.
Another more technical method involving the Terminal and aliases is discussed in depth here: Using OS X with an SSD plus HDD setup - Matt Gemmell. This is my preferred approach because I can select which of the Home's folders I want on the HDD and which I don't want. For example, I like to keep the Documents and Library folders on the SSD because I access their content frequently.
Be sure you retain the fully bootable system on your HDD in case you ever need it.
