LG CT810 and PocketHAL 1.0.5

[lcellentani]

Hi All

this is my first post, so I hope to be on topic doing this post.

Running PocketHAL minimal example on the LG CT810 the application lauches and freezes immediately.
Is there any way I could help to debug this issue?

Sure!

Look at the last message of this thread:

Download "test_imate_810f.zip". This is a version of PocketHAL that will log information to a text file. This file will be in the root of your device (PHAL_log.txt) or something similar.

Post that file here so that I can take a look.

Hi Thierry

I executed the minimal example with the version of the library you suggested. Please find out attached the log files.
A comment on how I collected the log files:

I ran the test twice, both logs are included, labeled Test 1 and Test 2. For the first test I launched the app and received a warning dialog about unsigned applications possibly damaging the device. I tapped OK on the dialog and for a moment the the loading indicator displayed and animated. Shortly after the device apparently froze on the File Explorer menu, with the loading indicator still displayed but not animating. Pressing the end key a number of times eventually recovered menu functionality. At this point the application did not launch again. I powercycled the device and ran PocketHAL again for a second test. This time the application launched without the warning dialog and behaved without error. I attempted to fully recreate the problem from the first test but despite numerous deletions and recopies of the PocketHAL executable with and without powercycling the device I have not received the warning dialog again. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks a lot for the attention

Are you saying that after the first try, the minimal.exe application works properly? I cannot explain this behaviour... It looks like a problem with app signature and not PocketHAL. Have you tried normal non-PocketHAL applications? If not, can you try one and see if you get a similar behaviour?

Looking at the log files, they are basically identical and both aren't showing any problems.

Also if minimal.exe now works properly, can you try firework.exe and see if it does the same thing?

Another weird behavior: application works if I have the USB-cable attached, stop to work as soon as I disconnect the device from the PC.

I will try to sign the build and compile the fireworks as you suggested.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.

Weird behaviour... Sounds like this device has some stability issues? The USB thing is certainly not related to PocketHAL.

Fixed in 1.0.6.

Well, it seems this is a dead forum, but, nevertheless, let's see if I can get some help.

My phone is also a LG CT810, and every single game I try that has been done using PocketHAL, just freeze at startup (Sudoku Rules & Sensible Sudoku are two of them).

I really like sudoku rules but the company is no more. Is there a way to just replace some dll and make it wotk?

Just noticed in another thread, talking about VITO applications also freezing and they are also pockethal. Never new that and never been able to use any of then also.

Has this ever been fixed??????????????????
