Bug? Android 4.3 pb with closing the app

[Erel]

You didn't implement the workaround I posted in post #2.

 

[imbault]

Right Erel, I must change in all my applications....

Thanks

 

[luke2012]

Thanks for the workaround!
It works also on Ginger, ICS and JB < 4.3?

 

[Erel]

Yes.

 

[psdos]

Had the same problem on Nexus 7 2013 Edition with android 4.3. No Problem in Note 2, Acer A500, Note 10.1, Ace 2, S3 Mini, S2, ...

My error is "Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x00770065 (code=1), thread 1195", and application crash.

Thanks you Erel. The workaround works perfectly!

Can you upload an example that demonstrates the issue?

Erel,

Same problem, but even after adding your fix. The test uses a webview to load yahoo.com. Next it loads google.com

After the google site appears pressing the back button is intended to take you back to yahoo,
but I get the Return True error.

 

[Erel]

The signature of KeyPress should be (see the warning messages in this sub):

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean

The signature of KeyPress should be (see the warning messages in this sub):

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean

Sorry - I should have cut and pasted the code, but typed it in manually instead. It is working fine.

The best way is to use the events auto completion: IDE Tips

Erel could you please help me
When i Press the volume Button my app Chrashes with the Posted error

my code is:

If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN Then
Dim PhoneVol As Phone
Dim temp As Int
temp = PhoneVol .GetVolume(PhoneVol .VOLUME_MUSIC)
If temp > 0 Then
temp = temp - 1
PhoneVol .SetVolume(PhoneVol .VOLUME_MUSIC, temp, True)
End If
End If

If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP Then
temp = PhoneVol .GetVolume(PhoneVol .VOLUME_MUSIC)
If temp < PhoneVol .GetMaxVolume(PhoneVol .VOLUME_MUSIC) Then
temp = temp + 1
PhoneVol .SetVolume(PhoneVol .VOLUME_MUSIC, temp, True)
End If
End If

My other Problem is that i Use the Back key not only to close my application
For example i Set some Views/controls to Visible false when i press the backkey (when the views are visible true --> back key --> views visible false)

 

[Erel]

Please start a new thread for this question.

Thanks a lot, Erel. The workaround works perfectly!

Erel,

Is this issue solved with Basic4Android ver 3.50?
Or must we convert all subroutine calls to CallSubDelayed?

Having issues with Samsung SIII Android 4.3
Almost all keypresses result to "Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV)"

Thanks

[Erel]

There isn't any reasonable way to solve this issue. If you show a modal dialog then you need to use CallSubDelayed.

This happens because of a change in Android 4.3.

 

[priitp]

It happens when I process keypress from menu item
(Activity_KeyPress -> CaseKeyCodes.KEYCODE_MENU).

There I call subroutines what are itself event handlers (button_click).
Inside thoose event handlers I do StartActivity(anotherActivity).

Looks like not modal dialogs for me.

Regards
Priit

 

[Erel]

Note that a DoEvents call will also trigger this issue.

I've tested it on a device without a menu button so I wasn't able to catch the menu key (remember that many devices don't have a menu button). I've tried it with this code:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)

End Sub

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean 'Return True to consume the event
   If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN Then
     StartActivity(a1)
   End If
End Sub

It didn't raise any error.

Please try it and change it to the menu button and see whether it works or not.

 

[priitp]

Unfortunatelly a guy with the phone to test with left
and I'm not able to test this for some days.

Just in case Erel you have a bit of spare time I sent the project to you privatelly.

Thanks
Priit

 

[Erel]

This line shows a modal dialog:

Select Case InputList(...

 

[priitp]

Oh, my fault.
I didn't realise this.

Thank you so much.
