Android app too old?

[Siegler]

Android app store says the app is not available for me since it's made for an older version of android. I'm running android 13.

AM I missing something? Do I need to dig up an old device to use the app?

I need to sit down and recompile the apk for newer android.

I'll try to get it setup within the next week

Noticed the update on the app 👍

Got it downloaded, but i can't get it to connect to box. My phone sees the lbb, but can't do anything with it....

LBB app crashes when I go to the Bluetooth option. The stand alone also wont actually pair and stay connected to my phone. I updated the box via USB on my computer (LBB 3.0.5 and ran the Bluetooth updater), but still no luck. Tried the app on 2 different phones with the same result: No pair, No connect on the app, App crashes when I open up the Bluetooth option.

Yeah I noticed the crashing too, its failing to grab the newer android permission for "bluetooth_connect" if you look in the app settings within "settings" and allow it to search nearby devices it should stop crashing in the settings area.

I need a newer android device to program against. Hopefully I can figure out how to get the app to request that permission.

Couldn't find that permission in settings you mentioned.

Saw this about Bluetooth connection to android 12 or higher. Not sure if it helps you at all.

You'll need to for the apps area and dig into the LBB app permissions and give it the Bluetooth perms.

The newer permissions are not being asked for on startup for some reason. I'll try to dig into it this weekend. I was able to add the scan permission but it doesn't seem to help.

I am also having these issues and hopeful for a resolution. I can't seem to update the firmware either.

Have you gone through the app settings in android and given the app the Bluetooth permissions ?

I'll have to screenshot it later.

Has this been addressed? My turbo is locked in full brake, but I can't log connect to see if it's the turbo or lilbb. I'm assuming it's the turbo, but I'm going to need to re calibrate anyways so I need access.

[hakcenter]

You need to verify the permissions if they were not accepted through the Settings > Apps area and give it coarse location.

Location is needed for bluetooth

I'm working on making a more robust startup warning for permissions. Probably upload it sometime this week once I passes some basic testing.

[hakcenter]

Pushed a major app update out. Lots of underlying changes for all the new android permissions and what not.

Let me know if there are any issues.

[jamesstubb]

That worked for me. Thanks!

Works awesome on android 14! Thanks!
