Cannot differentiate two devices of the same type in the device selector #4632

vammex · 2023-07-04T10:45:50Z

Type: Bug

i have two same phones. when i connect both to computer, vs code shows their names in "select device to use" and they are same. cannot understand what is what.
it is a name of phone model, so it cannot be fixed manually at the settings. it is a hardware phone name.
vs code does not allow me to choose how, by which name i want to see list of devices

Could you post the output of running flutter devices --machine in a terminal when both devices are connected? Thanks!

their ID are different and android studio for example does show me a difference between two devices

DanTup · 2023-07-04T12:15:56Z

Is Android Studio just showing the raw ID (A6QUCP2C26403181 and A6QUCP2C05400813)? I think we should be able to include that here fairly easily.

AS shows both hardware name and ID.
yes it may be enough. how to do it?

DanTup · 2023-07-04T14:16:22Z

I've made a change that will add the ID to the device selector like this.

Will this solve the issue for you?

if it will look like VNE AN00 - A6QUCP2C05400813
it's good

DanTup · 2023-07-04T16:45:41Z

Yep! The brightest text will be "VNE AN00" (eg. where mine says "Mi A2"), and the ID "A6QUCP2C05400813" will be the first part of the next text (where mine says "33aa844").

I do not understand, you do not plan to tell me HOW to make it?

DanTup · 2023-07-05T15:27:43Z

The change is in the Dart extension code. I have made that change, but you will need a new version of the Dart extension to see it.

I will publish a pre-release version later this week, and you can switch to that if you would like to get the update before the next stable release.

oh you are the developer? I have not got it.
so please show me a screenshot with your real phone names details?

DanTup · 2023-07-05T16:36:25Z

Yes, I'm a developer on the Dart extension.

The image from above included my test phone - the name is "Mi A2" and the ID is "33aa844". Before the change, the ID was not shown, but now it is:

I will push a pre-release version tomorrow and provide instructions so you can update and test it out.

version 38 is out. is there smth?

DanTup · 2023-07-06T09:52:24Z

version 38 is out. is there smth?

I'm not sure what version 38 you're referring to. The current extension version is 3.68.

Anyway, I have published pre-release versions of the extensions. Please click the "Switch to Pre-Release" buttons for Dart + Flutter extensions and then click the "Reload" buttons once they have finished installing:

These include the updates, and you should be able to see the IDs in the device picker. Please let me know if this doesn't work for you.

Thanks!

genius

right for now, it is good enough.
in future, will it be possible to set some name to devices? cannot figure out now which logic do i mean, whether vs code will remember commonly connected devices, or else to set a name every time after connecting

DanTup · 2023-07-06T10:36:57Z

Please file a new issue requesting this. If people add 👍 s and it seems useful to many, we could consider it. Thanks!

It's not guaranteed everything raised gets fixed quickly, but things are definitely more likely to be addressed if they have been raised, because otherwise I might not know about the issues :-)

If you find bugs or have suggestions, please do open issues!
