Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

FRC Spyder is one of my favorite apps. I loved it last year.

So you can imagine my horror when I downloaded the 2013 update and it stopped working. Every time I open it now, I get a black screen for a while, and then this:

"The application FRC Spyder (process com.dwabtech.frcspyder) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

And of course, trying again doesn't help at all.

Is my Samsung Galaxy S (not II or III, just S) already too old (Android firmware: 2.1-update1, and kernel: 2.6.29) and incompatible for some reason? Is there any chance to fix this? I'd love to get the app working again.

But I totally understand that you all are very busy, and may not have an answer. I just thought I'd let you know. Thanks so much!

Just got the update today that fixes the Red 3 bug (that got confusing at Palmetto!)

One idea that hit me today: When subscribing to a team, would it be possible to give an upcoming match alert? Even just triggering the alert for Q8 after Q(8-offset)'s score is posted would give us time to switch webcasts or run walk briskly to the field.

Everything works great except in the team list and rankings pages for any event, no teams numbered over 4000 show up(using Samsung Stratosphere, Android 2.3.6). The rankings are also somehow still having the correct number of teams, it appears those 4000's teams are being replaced by others. Results, schedule etc. are all correct.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

Your old version is still supported, but due to a dumb mistake on my part coupled with me not having the time to test on an old device before I released it, the bug got out. It's an easy fix and I'll release an update tonight so you should be ready for this weekend's matches.

There was a problem with the team list on our server for the first day or two that the app was available. My guess is you grabbed the app early & got the bad list that's missing some teams. If you go to the main screen and do an update from there, you should get the full team list. Let me know if that doesn't fix it.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

I think that worked, thanks!! :cool:

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

Awesome, thanks! Everything works great now.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

This has to be one of my all time favorites! One thing I wish is that you could look up what awards were won at the event... ;)

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

I'm having problems with the app claiming that I'm subscribed to too many teams, but I can't find which teams I'm subscribed to (I'm fairly sure I'm not subscribed to any, considering I don't get any notifications). Anybody have a solution?

The app has been great when it's working! It was great keeping track of my favorite teams in week one!

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

I agree, also a separate page for eliminations would be cool. Maybe with brackets.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

You rock. Thanks for implementing the thing I suggested above... I didn't see your reply and when I was using it this weekend I tried again what I suggested and saw it was possible and I was like "uh...am I dumb and missed this before?"

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

I figured out the text formatting problem - I have "large text" enabled in accessibility options (anyone who knows me understands why). It's not a huge deal to simply disable it, but I would love to have the text formatted correctly and be able to read it at the same time.

Also, is there a way for you or us to manually update Gull Lake? With no fms data from Saturday, it's stuck at qualification match 56. With the event over, it's (again) not a big deal, but it'd be nice.


P.S. I hope you know I only bother you with these things because there's no other service worth bothering with. FRC Spyder is the best. Thank you!

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

This *is* a cool idea.

Me likey.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

Oh, so you mean like FRC Megaphone?

Set up your team/your favorite teams, and it'll text you before the matches and/or when the match has been scored.

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

one thing I'd like to see is dots on the bracket screen for match wins

edit... for 2014 at this point, of course

Re: FRC Spyder 2013
 

His idea would be data-based, rather than text-based. Some people end up with more spare data than spare texts.
