  • We have published the cordova 3.5.1 update for crosswalk 7&8 (stable & beta in XDK). You don't need to install anything, just rebuild your app and resubmit to google play. I just published a test app and haven't seen a new cordova alert so I think we are okay. Thanks for your patience.

    Now I have a request for you. Many of you have been submitting both x86 and arm apk's to google play, but we need more. If you only submit the arm APK, it won't run on the 40 million tablets that Intel sold in 2014. It won't run on the new google nexus player (http://www.google.com/nexus/player/). Your users might get a black screen and give you a bad rating. My boss will come to my office and ask me why your game won't run on his phone.

    Submitting both arm and x86 just takes a few minutes. It's a simple way to improve the user experience for you users, and much easier than the hard work you put into making a game.

    The build email has a link to a zip file with arm and x86 apks. When you upload the APK in google play, there is a button in the top right that says 'switch to advanced mode' Click on it. Then upload the arm and x86 apk. Publish. That's it! If you have a problem, PM me.

    It's the single most important way to show your appreciation for XDK and Crosswalk, so please do it, and help spread the word.

  • I am expecting the crosswalk cordova 3.5.1 update on Monday. It will be a change to the build server, so you won't have to re-install anything, just rebuild. It will have crosswalk 7 & 8 (called stable & beta in XDK). Sometimes there are unexpected problems in doing updates which cause delays so wait until I post before rebuilding.

  • The fix for the 3.51 orientation bug with android cordova it out. You can try building again.

    This is not the update for crosswalk and 3.51 that many of you are waiting for. We are still working on that.

    IntelRobert can you say when the orientation bug will be fixed?

  • We wrote a cordova plugin and handed off the google play game services work to Ashley. I am not sure how much work he will have to do and when he will be able to do it.

    cranberrygame also published a plugin for google play game services, so you may be able to use his version now.

    IntelRobert , any news about Google Play services?

  • If you don't mind writing a couple lines of javascript, then xdk provides an API for preventing sleep:

    https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/493027

    In the plugins settings, you have to select the device plugin. It's in the list on the right hand side, under 'featured & custom codova plugins.' There is also a plugin called device on the left hand side, that's not the one you want.

    The plugin from cranberrygame will save you some time since you don't have to write the JS. Either way should work.

    cranberrygame: I thought Shuher was saying he doesn't want to screen to sleep or dim when there is no input. I found a plugin on github that prevents dimming, but it hasn't been touched for > 1 year so I don't know if it works with latest cordova. I am not sure how many c2 users would want it.

    > I might be wrong, but I think this prevents sleep, but not dimming. If you explain what you need then cranberrygame might be able to add that capability.

    >

    prevent from sleeping is exactly what i need <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

  • We are hashing out how to use twitter to announce build system updates. XDK has a twitter feed in top right so it will be there, but we will make sure you can use your own twitter client.

    I´m waiting for the XAS solution too.

    IntelRobert is there any newsletter I could Sign up to know about this update as soon as it is available?

  • We have updated the cordova/android build to 3.51 so you should republish if you are using android, but not crosswalk with XDK. When we get the update from the crosswalk team we will update the crosswalk build, too. Crosswalk 8 first (beta) followed by crosswalk 7 (stable).

    The vulnerability was related to using android intents to launch your app and the whitelist for cross domain. If you don't know what this, then the fix for the vulnerability won't affect your app. However, google does not know what your app does, only that it was built with a vulnerable cordova so you need to republish.

    Google is not blocking new apps from being published, and I doubt they are going to be pulling apps in the near future so no need to be too concerned.

    Is it possible to export with Intel XDK now, without running into vulnerability issues? I'm sincerely confused.

    It's so weird, the emulator just shows me a black screen now. My app doesn't run anymore and on export it says that there was an error parsing the app.

    Even weirder, it only plays if I select the Nokia Lumia device.

  • We have a fix, it will probably be updated on Monday.

    Hi, I can't set Apache Cordova version to 3.5 with potrate oriantation. because of if i set the app orientation to landscape or portrait from default in intel xdk property then app will not build (android build) and giving a error. but with the same program, if i set CLI 3.3 with potrate oriantation then it works and if set CLI 3.5 and oriantation to default then it will build. Why Orientation is effect to CLI version.?

  • Server is fixed. My test build finished in < 1 minute.

  • We are having a server problem. Please be patient. Here are some suggestions:

    The cordova/android builds work fine. It's the build tile next to crosswalk. If you run it on a 4.4 phone, it will be comparable to crosswalk since it will use a more recent chromium. But don't publish because it won't get webgl or good performance on a pre-4.4 phone.

    You can also use our debug tab to test your app without building.
