anDGS Update

Post by mdobbins »

anDGS version 1.60 is available on the Google Play, Handster, 1Mobile or my personal website

Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=anDGS&c=apps

Handster:
http://android.handster.com/andgs.html?dm=1&multi=1

1Mobile (delayed update from Google Play)
http://www.1mobile.com/andgs-288230.html

My Download page:
http://www.hellogovernance.com/android-apps

Release 1.60
- Fix notification clearing
- fix fault using notifier
- Fix repeated display of messages
- Fix resign showing as Pass
- create games with whole or half point Komi
- setting handicaps (client and sgf)
- scoring games (client and sgf)
- Game Notes (preference)
- Status Game order (preference)
- long password problem
- some features open browser
- Delete Game

Note: I just uploaded to Google Play and I can take several hours for it to appear.

Note: This is one of the largest feature updates I have released and completes the game play from setting handicaps through scoring. I think the scoring is still a bit raw and uses a new interface in DGS, please contact me or leave a post here if you see anything funny or can suggest an improvement.

anDGS version 1.61 is available on the Google Play, Handster, 1Mobile or my personal website

Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=anDGS&c=apps

Handster:
http://android.handster.com/andgs.html?dm=1&multi=1

1Mobile (delayed update from Google Play, this site does not seem to be updating)
http://www.1mobile.com/andgs-288230.html

My Download page:
http://www.hellogovernance.com/android-apps

Release 1.61
- List and join Waiting Room games
- Accept/Reject Invitation
- Some message formatting
- Invite from user info (open browser)
- Increase game size limit, needed for 25x25
- Recover failed connections within client
- Add a white on green color theme
- minor button adjustments


Question: Is anyone using anDGS on a 10" tablet?
The developers console is making suggestions for supporting xLargeScreens for tablets, I would like to know if any of those devices are eliminated from downloading and running anDGS.

I did some initial work with it and it looked like it would be a bit difficult to support that and maintain backward compatibility with Android 1.6 devices (it may actually run on 1.5 but I am not sure anymore.) I know only a few percent are on 1.6 but I do not want to abandon these users. Old hardware can be very useful for playing/Studying go.

I have received automated reports from the market of a number of crashes using version 1.61 (and 1.60) while using the notifier. I thought I had fixed it in 1.60 but they are still showing up for some users. I have tried every thing I can think of in my daily use of anDGS, but no longer can reproduce it on my devices.

If anyone is still getting these crashes, please contact me or post here with specifics: What version of Android, what hardware, and what sequence of events did you notice, and how frequently does it happen.

I would really like to resolve this.
