Yaron 53 Posted November 12, 2018 There are so many devices and versions of the OS in the user-space, what practices do you use to test your Delphi applications for Android? Share this post Link to post
Rollo62 538 Posted November 12, 2018 I try to test the most common devices in the market, the rare devices I do ignore (not much complaints yet from customers). From Asia I have got more issues, that apps don'T start, but usually they have strange versions of Android running. Share this post Link to post

Rollo62 538 Posted November 12, 2018 I have about 6-7 different devices, including Android & iOS, for direct testing. But I mean that I'm lucky to have also several Beta-Tester, with more devices, so usually I can test about 20 different devices before upload to the stores. 1 Share this post Link to post
John Kouraklis 94 Posted November 12, 2018 I asked a similar question a couple of days ago but it was about debugging Do you use Delphi in a VM? Share this post Link to post
Rollo62 538 Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) Yes, I use RadStudio under Win10 (1803), in VmWare Fusion (still V11), on a Mac for iOS and Android development. Edited November 13, 2018 by Rollo62 Share this post Link to post

Rollo62 538 Posted November 13, 2018 Yes, I mostly had problems with iOS and Samsung devices. But currently (since 10.2.3) all is fine. Share this post Link to post
Yaron 53 Posted November 13, 2018 I was able to debug Android application in v10.2.2, but then after installing v10.2.3 it stopped working, either the debug doesn't hook correctly (it never debugs) or it stalls on 'launching' and never continues. Pressing "cancel" at this point returns an error that the port is in use (I even read about how to change the port, but the error remained just showing a different port number). I suspect this may be related to the fact that I installed v10.2.3 ontop of v10.2.2 without doing a clean install (this resulted in a few other glitches as well). Share this post Link to post
Rollo62 538 Posted November 13, 2018 Have you installed all hotfixes, etc., and have you tried with a "blank" app, e.g. just a button ? Share this post Link to post
Yaron 53 Posted November 13, 2018 @Rollo62 If you're referring to me, yes, everything is installed and it happens with a blank app. But there are definitely issues with upgrading over an existing version, I can list several glitches, but it's out of topic here. Share this post Link to post

No, I get the same error with a clean install of 10.2.3 Let's hope the upcoming 10.3 will resolve this Share this post Link to post
