Hello.
After v 6.30 installed I can not start the debugger, via bridge.
I choose Debug the application, which is exactly the same version in ide and the device.
The application is installed again in device.
I run the app from device which is showing the message "Waiting for IDE debugger to connect" and stopped.
This circle is repeated over and over again.
I tried to change the #VersionCode and #VersionName but I took the same results.
Regards.

a app compiled in DEBUG can only be used after installed by the ide.
To run the app on the device normally you should use release compilation.

Thanks for the response.
Of course the app is installed in the device before I try to debug it.

set the compiling to debug. compile and install... it will run in debug mode....
If you then want to use the app without ide you need to compile in release mode and install this version.
The release version can be started without the IDE (no need for the debugger)

The debug only works after a fresh compile (and install) in debug mode.

This sounds related to the new debug signing key in v6.3

Have you tried uninstalling the old app from the device and trying again?

I know the procedure.
have done this countless times in the past, in almost every version of B4A

Solved!
Completely unistall B4A, ver 6.30.
Clean install of v 6.30. Reboot the pc.
Everything is okay. Debugger works.
Thanks for the responses.
The previous 6.30 installation was an upgrade to installed version 6.00
This was might be the problem of my system.
