Dreamweaver 6/PhoneGap Build Service Android Key Question

I just recently upgraded to CS6 and am excited to use the mobile sutff. I have been a CFer for years and using Jquery for a long time and have been using JQM more and more. Now I want to evolve from a web developer into an app developer. I thought the cool integrations within DW6 would be a good way to start.
So I watched Greg Rewis' intro video to get a flavor of things. I set up my first app site. I then created a simple JQM page to test with. I then downloaded the Android SDK (which is what I am starting with, but plan on branching out to the other OS'). I created an AVD, created a keystore and all that. I then went through the process of attaching my keystore to my PhoneGap Build Service account. That all went well, although it did not ask me to make it the default and I am assuming that is because it is the only key at this point...just a note for copywriters.
I then went back to DW to go through the PhoneGap Build Service panel to create my first app to play with. Here si where I ran into an issue. The PhoneGap Build Service panel asks for a key under the Android section (which I expected), but when I clicked on the drop down where it said none, that is all that was there. The key I uploaded to my PhoneGap Build Service account was not listed. I even logged out and logged back in, shut down DW and reopened it and nothing I did caused it to display. Can someone please point me in the right direction? If I can get this last piece of the puzzle, I can begin cranking through some code.
Thanks in advance,
Clay

As long as you are signing into the same account in DW as you are on the PhoneGap Build website, any keystores you uploaded would be available inside of Dreamweaver.
Highly recommending posting on the PhoneGap Build community site, where you'll get better answers regarding the functionality of the PhoneGap Build website and keystores: http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/products/nitobi_phonegap_build

Phonegap Build service for jquery mobile themed page not showing on mobile

I am trying to use jQuery mobile inside the Adobe Dreamweaver CC and then use phonegap build service to deploy the application to my phone. The issue here is that the Dreamweaver design panel is showing the jQuery Mobile UI but the application APK which is deployed over the phone does not.

Could anyone please help?

Try defining a site and then create the mobile themed page within that site and DW will copy all the assets relative to the site path and will not be as its in your current page.

Dreamweaver PhoneGap Build Service required signing key.

I tried to upload my HTML5 to PhoneGap Build, Site > PhoneGap Build Service > PhoneGap Build Service, then a window pop up:
After some research, i found out that the signing key is actually refer to IOS but i intent to upload to Android only. So, i won't need the signing key. Is there some setting that i need to paid attention?
Note: I also have download the Adt bundle but i didn't download phonegap into my computer (Some article mention it can be done online.) I also registered with the Andriod developer already.

To compile your Android apps to the latest standards, go directly to Phone Gap Build web site.

Trying to connect to PhoneGap Build Service in Dreamweaver CS6 but get a "Temporary Server related error". Help!

I am trying to connect to the PhoneGap Build Service in Dreamweaver CS6 but after about a minute I receive the error "Temporary Server related error. Please try again later.". I have googled, searched and implemented any fix that I could find without any joy. I have fully updated Dreamweaver and all other Cloud services but still am receiving the error.
I can log into build.phonegap.com using my Adobe ID no problem and I have linked a GitHub account to my Adobe ID so I am at a loss as what I can try next.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,

Adobe CS6 PhoneGap Build Service JavaScript error: At line 565

Hello everyone,
We need some help, when I click on REBUILD APPLICATION (PhoneGap Build Service) I get a dreamweaver pop up box that says:
While executing onClick in PhoneGap Build Service.htm the following Java error:
At line 565 of file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\AdobeDreamweaverCS6\Configuration\PhoneGapBuildPlugin\js\PhoneGapPlugin.js": Keys has no properties
What can I do to solve this?
Thanks

Hi billabear.
Charbarred is correct that the answer lies in that discussion; however, there are multiple answers in there and it may be unclear exactly what the solution is. Essentially, you need to re-create the project settings file for the app you are building, since it contains erroneous data.
See the response from Ken Barklage in the same discussion Charbarred mentioned: http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/topics/dreamweaver_now_cant_build_after_todays_update _please_help#reply_10869042

Phonegap Build service Error

I have DW CC 2014.0 Release. When I run Phonegap Build service , I get the message: Failed to get a list of keys. How do I fix this problem.

as subhadeep_banerjee said -----
Hello JumanaT,
Dreamweaver’s direct integration with PhoneGap Build to package mobile applications is no longer supported "in all versions".
So, even if you are using DW CC 2014.0 you would NOT be able to use the integrated service from within DW. Use the cloud service instead, as suggested by others.

PhoneGap Build Service 'build error'

I'm having trouble with Dreamweaver CC and PhoneGap Build Service. I get 'build error' and when I click the 'view' button it says 'Failed to upload application'. (I'm building for Android only.) And on build.phonegap.com the name of my app has changed to 'PhoneGap Build Project' Why? It had the right name before... And the version says 1.0.0, which is also wrong. The app ID is: 819335

Hi,
Can you please follow the below mentioned steps:
1. Quit Dw.
2. Please navigate to the following location:
Win: C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe
Mac: /Users/{username}/Library/Adobe
3. Delete the folder "PGB"
4. Relaunch Dw and login to PGB and continue with your scenario.
Let me know if the issue still persists.
Thanks,

How to fix "server problem" error message when trying to use PhoneGap build service.

I have a site that is now optimized for mobile devices and want to use the PhoneGap Build service in Dreamweaver CS6 to make a native app. Unfortunately, I keep getting the "We seem to be having server problems." error message when I try to create a new project. I did notice that the configuration file was created at the site root. I've seen a few other similar threads on this, but no solution. I've checked on any firewall issues (none) and know that the PhoneGap server is not down. The problem is on my end.
Thanks,
Loren

Not an answer to the server problem, but I have posted the PhoneGap Build process here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4669054#4669054. It might help anyone still having problems.

PhoneGap Build Services, unable to sign in.

Hello
Trying to sign in with DWCS6 PhoneGap Build Service using the same credentials used to login and access CC and build.phonegap.com. DW invalid email or password, but the details I provide are correct.
Do I need to update any other configuration to access Build Services using DW.
BTW, I'm haven't fully installed Eclipse & the ENV for Android.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Hi - thanks for your prompt reply.
Well -- I changed my password to an older pass, and I could login to Build in DW CC!. So, both PG & ACC accounts have this previous password. But, sure, NOW, img shows the drop down, as expected, and I can continue to platform list ... sorry, really not sure why earlier issue happened, I should have tried reverting back to old pass before, but I thought it might have been a extra unknown config option on my side - the password used earlier during this thread was 15ish mix of alphanum and special characters, maybe DW (probably not) had an issue with this epic password.
humm, thanks for the link on setting up in DW CC btw..., so, as per screen grab, all is OK I guess...
Sorry for the confusion.

Phonegap Build Service

Hi all,
i'm facing an infinite "Build Queued..." from the PBS panel.
The phonegap status is "Good, Slow, Slow", may be this be the problem?

LaurieFrick wrote:
Confusion is that several tutorials say FIRST go to the site --> phonegap build service and create a site. I think Adobe might be missing some basic 'how-to' with CS6.
Basically, the PhoneGap Build process goes like this:
Create an account at https://build.phonegap.com/.
In Dreamweaver CS6, create a new site. The site must contain only files that are part of the app. There should be nothing else, because Dreamweaver uploads everything in the site root to PhoneGap Build.
Create an HTML page called index.html, and include the following script tag in the <head>:
<script src="phonegap.js"></script>
You don't need a copy of phonegap.js in your local site, but the <script> tag is required to make use of the PhoneGap API in your application.
Build your app by adding a style sheet, content, and JavaScript.
When you're ready to compile the app, go to Site > PhoneGap Build Service > Phone Gap Build Service.
Log into PhoneGap Build, using your account credentials.
If it's a new project, Dreamweaver tells you that a project settings file wasn't found. Select Create New Project, and click Continue.
Dreamweaver automatically uploads the files from the site, and starts building the app, which you can download once done.
Each app needs a file called config.xml. If you haven't created one, Dreamweaver creates a boilerplate one for you, which you need to edit and then rebuild the app. Details of how to create config.xml are in the docs on the PhoneGap Build site.
I created a series of videos explaining the process from start to finish in my Dreamweaver CS6 New Features course. The course isn't free, but it's relatively inexpensive and might help you if you're still stuck.

Dreamweaver CS6 PhoneGap build with Camera support for Android Device

I am trying to build a simple app that triggers the camera in my Samsung N7000 device.
I have built the app using Dreamweaver CS6 using the builting phonegap build support.
I am using the Windows version of Dreamweaver CS6.
When the app is built it shows no errors but when the app is installed on the device it does not trigger the camera.
I can not seem to get this very basic app to trigger the camera.
Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.

Captivate 7, PhoneGap Builder on Android and iOS tablets

Hello all,
I apologize if some of these questions are basic but searching the forums and online aren't turning up any answers I can discern. My company has decided to move into the mobile market for our E-Learning content, more specifically we want our customers to be able to use our content on tablet devices. I'm creating content with Adobe Captivate 7 using HTML5 animations. I have been able to publish my project as HTML5 and then use the PhoneGap Build tool to add the HTML5 animations to the project. However, I have no experience in app development and I'm running into a roadblock when trying to publish as Android and iOS compatible apps. I'm able to add the .wgz file to the android tablet but I have no idea how to run it or make it work. We just want our projects to play on Android and iOS tablets. My questions are thus:
- Is publishing our modules in App form the only way to accomplish this?
- When trying to publish to Android/iOS I am asked for a "Package". What does this mean? I've watched the following tutorial: Package the HTML5 content for devices using Adobe Captivate 7 App Packager - YouTube but it doesn't go into detail as to what he package is.
- From what I understand Android and iOS apps need certificates and signatures. Are these required for our members to be able to download our modules and run them on their tablets? Can someone direct me to a source for me to learn about and apply for these credentials?
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
- Nick

Just to clear up my third question, I'm not asking whether our customers will need a set of these credentials to access our content, I'm asking if its required I get these credentials to publish the content.

Dreamweaver cc and phonegap build

I'm going crazy trying to sort this out - I have built a mobile app. and am trying to use the phonegap build service in dreamweaver.
I have logged in and and created a new project and there it seems to hang asking me to insert Passwords for Android and Blackberry.
I'm new to this and confused, none of the tutorials show entering a password (except of course for iOS).
If I do need these where do I get them from?
Somebody ease my aching head please!!
Ian

You'll need to setup signing keys for each platform you're building for. More info here: https://build.phonegap.com/docs

PhoneGap Build Settings for Android SDK

On Mac 10.6.8, Dreamweaver CS6
I want to test the PhoneGap Build Service with the default "Hey, it's PhoneGap" index.html page. Specifically, I want to run the resulting apk inside an Android emulator. In preparation for this, I have:
1) Downloaded the Android SDK
2) Run...
android-sdk-macosx/tools/android sdk
     ... from a Terminal window
     This launches the Android SDK Manager, which I have used to download
Android 2.2 (API 8 - Froyo) and all its associated files
Android SDK Tools
Android SDK Platform-tools
Android Support Library
(I have also installed Eclipse, but I think that that is irrelevant for the current task)
4) Run...
android-sdk-macosx/tools/android avd
     ... from a Terminal window
This opens the Android Virtual Device Manager, which I have used to create a Virtual Device:
Name Froyo
Target Android 2.2 (API level 8)
Skin WVGA800
Located at /Users/<username>/.android/avd/Froyo.avd
This Dreamweaver Help page says:
Once you've installed the Android SDK, you'll need to start the Android SDK and AVD Managers, and select the Android tools you want to work with locally on your computer. Dreamweaver uses the information you select during this initial setup to populate the Android emulator settings in the PhoneGap Build Service panel. For more information on specifying these settings, see the Android documentation.
(My emphasis)
I'm guessing that I've done the parts of these instructions in italics, but I get lost when I reach the part in bold. The window that opens when I select Site > PhoneGap Build Service > PhoneGap Build Settings asks me to "provide the root paths to the [Android] sdk". None of the paths that I have provide seem to satisfy the Emulate Application button in the Build Panel.
Question: What folder should I select as the root path to the SDK?
Thanks in advance,
James

All that's missing is to understand how to convince Dreamweaver CS6 to perform the same steps, rather than going through a Terminal application.
I haven't installed the Android SDK on my Mac. Dealing with Xcode was painful enough for me.
However, I do have the Android SDK installed on Windows. I installed it at the top level of my C drive in C:\dw-android. All that was necessary to register it in the PhoneGap Build Settings panel was to enter C:\dw-android in the SDK location field. As long as you have the correct path to the SDK, it should be the same on a Mac.
I used the PhoneGap Build Service panel to build the app, and then clicked the Download icon. Once it had downloaded, I selected the AVD and target version of Android, as shown in the following screen shot:
After clicking Launch, it started the emulator and displayed the app. I found it necessary to make sure the AVD and target both used the same version of Android. Otherwise, it just launched the emulator, but the app didn't load.

Dreamweaver and PhoneGap: How to Edit the Application Manifest for an Android app

I successfully created an Android app using dreamweaver cs6 and the PhoneGap build service. I submitted the app and it is live in Google Play. The only problem is that the app is requiring all kinds of permissions from users that are not necessary for the app. The app requires Internet access, but it does not require access to the camera or the user's contacts, etc. I understand that this information is held in the Application Manifest file, but I don't know where that file is.
Can you help me figure out how to edit the Application Manifest file for my android app?
Thanks,
Michael

To edit permissions, you do so in the config.xml file. After making changes, you can directly upload on build.phonegap.com or from within Dreamweaver.
See this page for info on customizing config.xml: https://build.phonegap.com/docs/config-xml#features
