Version 1.3.0 barely able to find and control base stations, reverting to 1.2.0 helped

[Vlad-M-1]

Hello,

I'm a regular user of this app.
After the last update the app was only detecting some base stations sometimes. And even when it did, I wasn't been able to put 2 out of 3 base stations to sleep.

I've tried with no success:
• rebooting my phone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 5).
• rebooting one of the base stations (2.0) I couldn't put to sleep by unplugging and plugging it
• clearing app data
• going through troubleshooting steps, requesting and accepting permissions

When I installed 1.2.0 apk, it right away detected all 3 base stations, and I was able to successfully put them to sleep.

I think I found the problem.

Could you guys please download the beta version from the Google play store to see if this fixes your problem?

I think it is because Google is still reviewing the beta.

Can you try this APK instead? If you feel comfortable doing so ofcourse

lighthouse_pm-1.3.1-beta+11.arm64.zip

behaviours still broken at getting the correct status of a station

After some trial and error I was able to recreate your problem and have a possible fix.

@SkySpnc can you try it out?

Uploading 8mb.video-tKK-fAInELK9.mp4 …

it still seems to be not the best at discovery, but the statuses update correctly, though not initially the first time.

For me it was also stuck on booting until i changed the state again then it started behaving as expected again.

For now I'll publish a new version that makes the app usable again and I'll look in the other problems tomorrow.

I've tried lighthouse_pm-1.3.1-beta2+11.arm64.
All the base stations were detected. But I couldn't turn any of them on.

Running 1.3.1 and I can no longer sleep / then off my base stations

[Vlad-M-1]

Not sure if it would be helpful, but I checked logcat, and maybe found something.

There are bluetooth-related logs during device discovery from BluetoothGatt and [FBP-Android]. But when I try to turn base stations on, there are no new messages in logs.

So maybe there's some condition check that fails and bluetooth actions are just not executed?

On 1.3.1 I can't see any of my lighthouses. Mine are v1.0 lighthouses

On 1.3.1 I can't see any of my lighthouses. Mine are v1.0 lighthouses

I have same issue. On other phone, I still have previous version and it works much better. Might also revert to 1.2.0

Update: reverting back to 1.2.0 worked, it is now able to find and control basestations 1.0 without issues. New version is able to find them only 1-2 times in 20 tries (restarting app and searching for them).
