Hi folks,

I am using windows 10 and b4a ver5.50.

I have been coding and testing merrily for some weeks and then I started getting installation errors as shown below:

error: protocol fault (couldn't read status length): No error
error: protocol fault (couldn't read status length): No error
Installing file to device. Error

I have searched the internet plus the community and have not been able to locate anything helpful.

If I do not use b4a-bridge I have to exit b4a and reload and then generally I can recompile once. I have tried restarting adb. I have checked that the device is listed by adb and it is. I switched to b4a-bridge and it will install the app a few times and then start coming up with the above message.

Sometimes, if I end adb using taskmanager it will work once or twice.

Does anyone have any bright ideas?

Thank you,
Hilton.
 
First note that adb has nothing to do with B4A-Bridge. adb is only used with usb debug mode.

What happens when you try to install the app when the device is connected in usb debug mode (B4A-Bridge should be disconnected)?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled b4a v5.5 and usb drivers a few times. I decided to clean up as much as possible and try one last time and suddenly everything is working again.

I apologise for wasting your time.
Hilton.
