Strange Review Team Behavior

Hello
Has anyone got any issues with the Microsoft Review Team - 3 of my Instagram related apps were amongst the top 20 best rated apps and were 
"You may not engage in any fraudulent or dishonest activities in the Store. This includes, but is not limited to, attempting to manipulate the ranking, ratings or reviews for your app or any other app, interfere with any other party’s use of the Store
service or attempting any form of financial fraud."
I reached out to Microsoft to discuss the issue at [email protected] and i was then told that they are reinstating my apps and i need to make sure i am not doing anything related to ratings manipulation which i clearly wasn't. 
After 3 days when apps didn't get reinstated I reached out again and this time I am told that "Apps like these arnt allowed in the Windows Phone store", whats the point of the certification process and review? There are clearly over 300 Apps on
iOS and over 1500 on Android which do similar things.
6tag has been the most popular windows phone client for Instagram and its not even legal! and that has been allowed for years now.

okay this seems as a non-radio/podcast issue, something pretty strange happens with the whole iTunes. anyway, it's not a thing for this topic, i'm gonna try and solve this in a proper one...

    when the apple review team review our app,they point out that our  app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently。but in fact,when the app in background ,the app need data update to make the function of  trajectory replay come ture。in fact, we have added function when the app  is in background mode。we have point out the point to them by email。but they still have question on the background mode,we are confused,does anyone can help me,i still don't know why do review team can't find the data update when  the app is in background and how do i modify the app,or what is the really problem they refered,do i misunderstand them?
    the blow is the content of the review team email:
    We found that your app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently. This behavior is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
    We noticed your app declares support for location in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location.
    It would be appropriate to add features that require persistent use of real-time location updates while the app is in the background or remove the "location" setting from the UIBackgroundModes key. If your application does not require persistent, real-time location updates, we recommend using the significant-change location service or the region monitoring location service.
    For more information on these options, please see the "Starting the Significant-Change Location Service" and "Monitoring Shape-Based Regions" sections in the Location Awareness Programming Guide.
    If you choose to add features that use the Location Background Mode, please include the following battery use disclaimer in your Application Description:
    "Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."
    Additionally, at your earliest opportunity, please review the following question/s and provide as detailed information as you can in response. The more information you can provide upfront, the sooner we can complete your review.
    We are unable to access the app in use in "http://www.wayding.com/waydingweb/article/12/139". Please provide us a valid demo video to show your app in use.
    For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. When the DTS engineer follows up with you, please be ready to provide:
    - complete details of your rejection issue(s)
    - screenshots
    - steps to reproduce the issue(s)
    - symbolicated crash logs - if your issue results in a crash log
    If you have difficulty reproducing a reported issue, please try testing the workflow as described in <https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1764/>Technical Q&A QA1764: How to reproduce a crash or bug that only App Review or users are seeing.

  • How do I contact the Credit and Order Review Team other than by phone?

    I ordered a new Galaxy Note 4 today, entered my credit card information, submitted the order and everything appeared to go through fine.  About 20 minutes after I submitted the order and received the email receipt, I received a message stating "We have received your order; however, this transaction cannot be processed because our order review department needs additional information from you.  Please contact the Credit and Order Review Team at 866-338-7390 to complete your order."   
    My situation is a bit unusual in that my old phone finally died so I don't have an existing cell phone to use to call the Credit and Order Review Team by phone.  Is there a way to email them securely through the Verizon email system or some other electronic method of providing them with the information they need to process my order?   Can't this be accomplished WITHOUT being required to use an existing phone?   I suppose my only alternative would be to find a pay phone somewhere.in the city that hasn't been disconnected, vandalized or left broken and call the Review Team to answer their questions.   But honestly, there has to be an easier way to accomplish this simple exchange of information.

    Well, yes.  I did think of that one.  But for some reason there is only 1 "authorized" Verizon store in the Palm Springs, CA area and even though they have 6 to 8 staff walking around with tablets looking busy, it can still take over an hour to get someone to actually help you.  And even then, they seem to be very 'compartmentalized' so one only sells accessories off the wall, while 3 others only help existing customers, etc.  So even once you get someone's attention they are probably not the 1 or 2 staff out of 8 that you really need to speak to.  It would be quicker to scour the city for a working pay phone.  :-)

  • Has anyone else managed to speak to a human being in the App Review team

    I have had my app rejected twice on the basis that they think all the functionality can be incorporated in an epub format even though the epub format explicitly can't support what my app does. But every time I try and contact the team, it is only allowed via email (with very long waits for responses) and I just a standard script response, e.g
    "2.21: Apps that are simply a song or movie should be submitted to the iTunes store. Apps that are simply a book should be submitted to the iBookstore".
    Even when I appealed I just got the same script back and I keep being told that I can't talk to a human being.
    Has anyone actually managed to speak to a member of staff in the App Review Team and could you give me some advice as to how I can do this. The process has been dragging on and all I need is a 10-minute discussion with a human being,
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Thanks KT.
    I did get a phone call after a few days and it did end up as a useful conversation.
    I do think though that there should be contact numbers so that developers can actually ring a named individual in the App Review Team. I was really surprised that the Apple switchboard said that they were unable to connect incoming callers to specific teams or members of staff. As a Customer Service experience it seems pretty poor.
    Anyway, the member of staff in the Review Team was helpful and we are making some of the suggested changes and resubmitting the App.
    In terms of ePub functionality, it actually can't do everything the App can do as there is no way within an ePub of changing navigation based on whether you are using an iPhone or iPad. There are a lot of things you can do (in fact you can build an HTML5 app within an ePub if you want) but whether an ePub format is appropriate for all the things you can do is another matter. That is a discussion for another day ...

  • Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for all developers

    I've opened a bug for this issue as well. I want to ask if anyone experiencing the same issue and has found a workaround.  Basically Air Runtime is picking up the wrong launch image when launching on iPhone 6. It defaults to [email protected] instead of the [email protected] iOS 8 picks the correct image but Air Runtime does not. Here is the link for the bug. If this is confirmed, this could result in rejection for all the app developers who optimized their apps for iPhone 6 . It is hard to catch this bug in release mode since the Air Runtime loads pretty fast and it occurs when you device is slow or doing something in the background. You can see it easily on iOS simulator or debug mode. We tried everything for a workaround but we failed.
    Bug#3831747 - Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for a…

    Apple recommends the storyboard/xib option but you can still use launch images as assets in your root. When you open a new project in xcode you can look at Contents.json and see the naming conventions they use for iOS8. We grabbed the new naming convention from here. Also setting up in the application xml the UILaunchImages key works too. Please see the below example. It would be a better solution if Adobe Air refers to xml/info.plist values that the developer sets instead of hard-coded naming conventions.

  • Help with Credit and Order Review Team

    Hi there,
    I recently tried to order the iPhone 6 and found that additional action was required to contact the credit and order review team. The number they gave me was for the prepaid wireless calling center.
    I should explain that I'm currently on a prepaid plan and the idea was for me to call them on my current verizon prepaid iPhone and then answer questions from there.
    Thanks for any help--the right number or a non robot number would be fantastic.

    Hey, VZW Support--Thanks for responding.
    I received instructions both after I clicked "Complete Order" and then in email form about 10 minutes later.
    Here is the email. I've censored out private information with bleeps. I'm new to the VZW forum, but apparently it is policy that I can only send messages to my followers. I'd be happy to send you a private message when I am able to do so--or did you mean via Twitter?
    I really would like to have my new phone before the weekend so if at all possible please let me know how to solve this quickly so I can get my order in before 4PM by tomorrow. It'd also be handy to know how long these additional questions would take--so that I don't call when I don't have enough time if it's going to take a while.
    Thanks so much!
    Thank you for choosing Verizon Wireless.
    We have received your order; however, this transaction cannot be processed because our order review department needs additional information from you.

  • Strange Navigation Bar Behavior

    Hi, I'm currently designing a web page for non-profit
    government organization.
    Unfortunately, I'm running into some strange behavioral
    problems with the navigation bar.
    The tabs in my navigation bar run from left to right. As the
    links are visited through the navigation bar, the links to the left
    of which ever link is active stop working. I can't for the life of
    me figure out why!
    The pages are arranged in such a way that each page involves
    three html files. One body file, one navigation bar file with it's
    respective tab hilighted, and a little file that simply loads the
    two, one on top of the other. The tabs in the navigation bar are
    linked to the file that then loads the body and navigation(of
    course). Clicking on a tab to the right of the active tab loads
    everything perfectly. However, if the active tab is the right-most
    tab, the tabs to the left no longer work properly. They seem to
    reload the navigation bar, but the body gets left behind and the
    URL still appears to be that of the right-most tab.
    Here is an example of my site in progress:
    Site in
    Progress
    By going through the four tabs at the top, you can quickly
    see things are going wrong.
    The drop-down menu can be used to access the same pages that
    the navigation bar refuses to load.
    If you could please take a look at the site and reply with
    any comments or suggestions as to what might be going wrong or what
    I could do to fix it, I would be very grateful.
    Note that I previously read something about strange
    navigation bar behavior being caused by image names beginning with
    numbers. This isn't what's happening here as my image names are all
    "image 1" etc.
    Also note that I'm using dreamweaver8
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Well thanks for the suggestion, but that's not actually the
    problem I'm having.
    The newsletter link along with all that other stuff on the
    left hand side is just stuff I havn't gotten to yet.
    The problem I'm having is with the navigation tabs at the TOP
    of the page(policies, forms, info and M.R.)! I know the links for
    those tabs are correct, because I can see from hovering over the
    tabs that they're pointing in the right direction, and if it's the
    policies page(leftmost tab at the top) I'm on, all the tabs to the
    right work perfectly. The problem is that when I'm on any other
    page (such as the M.R. page which is the rightmost tab), all the
    tabs to the left of it mysteriously stop working!
    As I said, just quickly click back and forth through the four
    tabs at the top of the page and you'll see what the problem is. In
    fact, completely ignore everything that isn't those four tabs at
    the top of the page, because everything else is unfinished.
    Please help! Thanks!

  • App rejected because Review Team unable to talk to my server.

    My app is rejected because Review Team cannot log into my app using given test account and password.
    They sent me the screenshot which shows the error - "Server communicatin error" - a custom error I defined when a connection with my server is failed.
    However, I cannot replicate this issue on my end - testing it both on emulator and actual device under the same testing environment as theirs.
    Check the server, there is no problem at all.
    It appears their testing environment has a problem with network?
    I replied telling them that I cannot reproduce this issue. They told me to seek help from Technical Support Team with crash log - but no log can be produced as it is working fine on my side.
    This is the entire story. I am now really frustrated and having no idea what to do next.
    Can anyone help me out?
    Any idea will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    And we're off! I have just published the first User Tip - App Store 101: Planning
    To the original poster: there is some content for your about business owners vs developers and internet sites. I will expand on the technical details in subsequent tips.
    To Michael and other developers: Anyone level 5 or above should be able to edit any User Tip. So feel free to hack up these tips. I think it is going to take a few of them. I should have done this a long time ago. Just be aware that the User Tip editing system is a bit crude. Once you edit someone else's tip, it transfers ownership to you. If there are multiple people editing a tip, it may get passed back and forth. I don't think people have really exploited the collaborative authorship avenue on User Tips very much. These tips are going to need that. There are some areas where I have very little knowledge, like book suggestions, online courses and tutorials, teams, business accounts, most iOS stuff, and other areas where I am so clueless I don't even know I am clueless.

  • Strange, Neverending Render Behavior in PProCS6

    Hi all,
    I've been experiencing some strange rednering behavior.  It started in a large PPro project that was experiencing another frequent issue, source monitor freezing, but the has carried over to a new, basic project recently started.
    Whether I select 'Render Effects' or 'Render Entire' I get the same result.  The render begins and seems to proceed as normal, but if I watch closely, the percent complete starts to bounce back and forth, even boucning between tenths and hundreths of a point.  The total number of previews beign rendered also steadily grows as the render progresses.  When the precentage reaches the end, 90% plus, the bouncing back and forth between values seems to increase in frequency.  I decided to leave one project rendering overnight and it was still incomplete when I returned ten hours later. 
    When one of these renders is canceled, the entire work area remains unrendered in the timeline with a yellow or red bar.  Even if a render is cancelled while still underway, the portions of the work area which were completed should appear as successfully rendered in the timeline. 
    The render pictured below, was 'Render all Effects in Work Area', rendering color correction and dissolves. 
    My media cache and scratch disk location was almost full prior to the render I performed today, so I went in and cleaned up both locations before beginining the render.  Alas, that did not change the end render result.  I have 'never-ending' render running right now...
    As a work around to the issue, I have just been exporting the 'final' product to allow me to review it thoroughly without an lag or stutter due to lack of rendering.
    The media in both projects where I have experienced this issue have ranged from Ikegami MXF to P2 and XDCAM EX.  All the media in the current project, pictured above, is XDCAM EX sitting on an internal SSD.
    Here all of my system specs.  Let me know if you require any other information
    Adobe Premiere Pro Version 6.0.1
    Total Code for Adobe Premiere Pro Version 6.0.2
    Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 (64-bit)
    CPU Intel(R) Xeon (R) CPU X5647 @ 2.93 GHz (2processors)
    Memory: 24 GB Installed RAM
    NVidia Quadro 4000
    Thoughts anyone?
    Linday

    Mystery solved!  Of course, after going through the trouble of un-installing/re-installing the entire Adobe suite which proved to be of no consequence. 
    It all comes down to the third-party plug-in Rovi Total Code for Adobe Premiere Pro.  I am currently using version 6.0.2.  The plug-in is required to proeprly package our Ikegami MXF media as one clip with audio and video when improted into PPro.  Any sequence based on a Rovi Total Code preset will not render sucessfully and attempts to render to infinity.
    To create a sequence for a new project, I always determine which media type within the project will be dominant and then drag a clip of that type to the 'New Item' icon in the project window to create a sequence which should match the source clip.  It seems with Total Code in the mix, any sequence created by this drag/drop method resulted in a Total Code preset based sequence, which in theory should not be a problem, but is in reality.  Below are a few screen shots which add support to this description.
    Above are the sequence settings for a Rovi Total Code sequence created by a drag and drop of JVC HD media, which is structured the same as XDCAM EX media.
    Above is a screen shot of a render of this Total Code sequence which is featured in the top of the image.  The number of X of Y frames grows continously and the render will never reach an end point, but will eventually fill all available space on the Scratch disk.
    Above is the render of the same video which was copied into a sequence created with an XDCAM EX sequence preset.  The number of frames to be rendered remains fixed and the render reaches completion as it should.  You can even note that the sequence updates with the green 'render complete' line as the render progresses.
    Above are the import settings that are currently activated for the Total Code plug-in.
    I have tested the drag/drop 'New Item' sequence creation method for our three main media types: XDCAM EX (JVC), P2 MXF, and IKegami MXF.  All result in a Total Code preset based sequence which will not render.  I will avoid using that method for sequence creation to avoid the issue.  I also plan ot inform Total Code of the bug in their package. Unless, Adobe, you think it is on your end?
    Thanks to all who took a glance at this issue and to Jim Simon for his efforts to troubleshoot.

  • Safari 5.1 strange auto-reloading behavior for tabs in the background

    hi guys.
    I have been encountering this strange behavior recently. I had thought it could be something wrong with my system, until yesterday i upgraded my Safari for Windows to the v.5.1 on a Windows XP laptop, and found the same issue. Now i guess I can be quite certain this is a safari issue.
    System info:
    1. Macbook Pro 17", OSX 10.6.8, 64bit boot (i have 8GB RAM).
    2. Safari (Mac) is the lastest version (as updated by the Auto update), run in the default 64bit mode.
    3. The windows machine is an old Thinkpad T60 with Windows XP Pro SP3. The Safari for windows is Safari 5.1 (7534.50), also updated by auto update.
    4. I have not installed any Safari extensions/plugs that feature an auto-reloading -- as such behavior was never seen before i upgrade to Safari 5.1
    Since i mostly work on mac the mac has been kept most updated. But the windows machine which i use now and then, i don't update everything very frequently. And the earlier Safari 5.0 worked fine without the current issue.
    Symptoms
    1. Let's say I have 1 Safari window open with 5 tabs, and I have been working on the 4th tab for a while, and left the other 4 tabs "idling" in the background.
    2. And then i want to switch to another tab: click on that tab, and that tab will come to the foreground while being automatically refreshed.
    3. It looks to me this behavior happens after the inactive tabs have been idling longer than a certain period of time - then if you switch to them, they will be switched to and in the same time auto-reloaded. But I still don't know how long it needs for the "idling" before an auto-reloading "threshold" is triggered.
    4. In the beginning this was just on the Mac Safari (and i hadn't updated safari on the windows). But after I updated safari for WIN yesterday, i found the same behavior today.
    5. I checked all the Preferences settings and didnt find any option that indicates this behaviors.
    Guys. any ideas? anyone have the same trouble? Thanks a lot guys. This is really annoying.

    I'm running Safari 5.1 / SL v10.6.8 on one Mac with Glims installed and I never have a problem with tabs auto reloading. You might want to give it a try.
    It's free!

    Once the software is installed you can access the settings from Safari / Preferences - Glims.
    If you don't like the software you can use their uninstaller here.
    Hi Carolyn thanks a lot for the idea.
    The weird thing is... after i tried to uninstall and re-install a few apps the "auto-loading" behavior disappeared ... guess something was interfereing with safari 5.1...
    But thanks for recommending Glims. I took a quick look at the website and it looks great. will do some more research before i start using it. Thanks for the recomm!

  • Very strange FF3/Opera behavior

    Hi there,
    I'm running XFCE & Compiz Fusion and encountered a very strange behavior when visiting a certain website with Firefox3. The website is http://www.cyberpunk-terminal.de/. Whenever I visit that site my whole Firefox gets transparent. When I switch to a different tab or close the tab, it's back to normal. It seems to have something to do with Compiz, since I can set the transparency of FF to 0 via Compiz-shortcuts.
    Does anybody else have the same experience?
    Edit: Same thing happens with Opera.

  • Strange Gradient Stroke Behavior on Some Path Corners

    Hello All,
    I'm a Photoshop user who has recently started learning Illustrator for a project. I am experiencing a strange behavior where some of the corners of a path with a gradient stroke overlap. In some of the corners, the stroke does not bend cleanly but leaves a strange artifact on the path (the stroke acts normally on the rest of the path including similarly angled corners). I am including pictures to illustrate what I mean.
    The stroke I am using has a linear gradient applied across it. The stroke starts with a solid color (black) with a hard edge against a gradient from green to transparent. Sometimes the artifact is on the transparent side of the stroke (first image), but sometimes it's on the hard edge side (2nd image - this is actually the same corner with the anchors manipulated). In the third image, you can see the issue on both the "transparent" edge (though as you can see in this image, it isn't actually transparent in places where the stroke overlaps itself) and the solid edge.
    I've done a lot of digging to try to find similar issues and tried many solutions - toggled snap to grid for the object, looked into miter limits, caps, and corners (I am using rounded corners), checked for stray anchors, changed points from corner to rounded, etc. Any advice is appreciated!
    Thank you very much for your time and input!
    Best,
    Alexis

    But you can get that effect by layering several stroke attributes in the Appearance Panel. For example, make the black on a different stroke layer, where you can control it separately from the green (ok, I'm color blind).

  • Strange alpha channel behavior in jscroll pane

    Hi,
    My first post here.
    I have been strugling for a while with a problem with alpha channel opacity and scrollpane. I basically have a JScrollpane that contains a JPanel with JLabels. The JLabels have a mouse action that changes their background to higlighted by using a color with an alpha channel.
    When a mouse is over a JLabel we call:
    public void mouseOver(){
              this.setForeground(Color.WHITE);
              this.setBackground(new Color(100,100,100,100));
              this.setOpaque(true);
    This works but with some strange rendering problems. Sometimes the "background" shows other parts of the screen insted of the correct background. This is kind of hard to explain so I took a screen shot that elaborates this.
    The correct behavior:
    http://www.rulli.org/~mravimo/seka/correct.jpg
    The wrong bahavior:
    http://www.rulli.org/~mravimo/seka/wrong.jpg

    I think there seems to some abuse of the 'opaque' setting in Java. Opaque, literally, of course, describes something through which nothing can be seen (if you can see through it, it's either translucent or transparent). That means alpha 0 is transparent, alpha 255 (for an 8-bit channel) is opaque, and anything else is translucent.
    ComponentUI uses 'opaque' to determine whether to paint the component background. This is where the semantics are broken: it should really query the background color to see if it's non-null and its alpha is non-zero, thus painting translucent colors as well as opaque. I think there is a good case for this being a Java bug if it's not already - though I'd anticipate the counter-argument being that it will raise issues with backward-compatibility ("if it's been broken long enough, don't fix it").
    The problem you're seeing, I suspect, is due to the same flag being used (semantically correctly) to help optimise the paint process (if something really is opaque then there's no point rendering underneath it).
    Unfortunately, fixing ComponentUI is a non starter since it can only be fixed by extension (multiply the number of components by the number of L&Fs and you're on your way).
    As a workaround you can extend JLabel and override paintComponent(); or plug in a specific label UI which fixed the ComponentUI problem; in both cases leaving the opaque setting at false.

  • Strange sent box behavior

    Strange behavior I hope someone can help diagnose: After sending an email with an attachment, it will appear as though no attachment is present (looking down the attachment column in the sent box). After opening up the email, the attachment icon appears as it should. Is there any way to remedy this behavior without opening every single sent email by hand?

    First try using Rebuild on the Sent mailbox -- if more than one account, then you must reveal the separate Sent mailboxes for each account, before Rebuild will be functional. Click on Mailbox in the menubar, and choose Rebuild while the Sent mailbox is open.

    Hi Chandra,
    unfortunately I can't stop the whole database just because of this "little" problem. And don't even know if it really helps. Now I'm installing the same SW on VMWare server. Hope, that it will help me reproduce this problem and then I can try this patch.
    Thank you, however, for your suggestion.
