Apk image file has occured "runtime error"

[Masayoshi_Y]

Hi,all

I have a problem installing apk file into my android smart phone.
JZS_Part2.aia (11.0 KB)

I am trying to display to a label area which read from little file(csv) by 1 second.
So I use "clock" and I read a file by 1 second , it works on the "MIT App inventor".

As a test,I build apk file and install it.But it occured "runtime error" and it does not work.

The reason for I take a interval with a clock ,I want to avoid to an Application Not Responding.

Debugging onto an App inventor is ok,apk is fail. I do not know it.

Would you please give me to resolve this problem? In Clock timer,can I not use a file I/O ?

Thank you.

If you are asking for help, I recommend you to make it as easy for others to be able to help you ...
You probably will get more feedback then...

which means in your case post a screenshot of your relevant blocks...

To download the aia file, upload it to App Inventor, open it, do some bug hunting for you, etc... this takes time, and most people will not do that...
Thank you.

Block debug is ok.It is no problem to run.

How do I debug about apk image built in app inventor on my android smart phone?

Thank you.

I took a quick look at your aia and really don't know where to start.
There are just too many mistakes and inconsistencies.

Only one example:

Search for it in the forum. I and others have created a number of guides and topics on this.

How do I debug about apk

Capturing Device Logs using adb logcat

ADB is a command-line utility that that can be used to control your device over USB from a computer. It will allow you to install / uninstall and or view logs on your device. This could be very handy when there are issues with a specific app and you like to view the logs for information that may lead to identify the cause of error. In this post, we’ll discuss how to install and use ADB. Installation: ADB comes with Android SDK. However, you can download ONLY the ADB files from HERE . Download…

If button is pressed,clock1 enable will be true.At that time program started.When Its running program has completed to proceed a files existed,clock1 will detect it and stop a program with checking a counter on the label number and clock1 be set to false.

I will show you detail later.

[Masayoshi_Y]

Thanks.I try it.

@Masayoshi_Y

If button is pressed,clock1 enable will be true.At that time program started.

No, the app starts with the Screen1.Initialize event.

@Masayoshi_Y

When Its running program has completed to proceed a files existed

I am talking about this:

The fact that the double slash // in front of the file name causes it to refer to the assets with Companion is bizarre enough. This will NOT work (I'm sure without having tested it) with the APK.

So as I said and showed before, fix the many bugs and inconsistencies.

[Anke]

On Android 9, but almost the same on Android 11+:

@ewpatton

(Btw, the same on Niotron.)

Hi,Taifun-san,Anke-san,and all to view this article.

Thank you a lot information about this.
So I use adb tools and mit app inventor companion carefully, I check my source file
(block) and detail again, so I got this "runtime error " is occured by a basic problem( of me).

My wrong is listed below:
"File1" component of default scope is undefined by myself. Is that "app" or "assets" or other ,I don't check about it. (As result ,"app" is when application error is occued.)

http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/reference/components/storage.html#File

According to this article as above,it says " the DefaultScope is set to App".

By this,I set Default Scope is set to "Assets".

Just in case,I set to "Asset" of File1.Scope.

Otherwise,File1 component is set to enable for the both permisstion (Read/Write) on companion,and When I proceed to "ReadFrom " ,except a double slashes from a filename ("//testfile.txt" to "testfile.txt").That becomes it works.

Finally,This case is occued by me with my lack of knowledge about MIT App inventor.
I aporogize to lost your time.

In short,I am an idiot and I have no permission to the file to read in apk file of apps.

I resolve this problem.

Thank you.

@Masayoshi_Y

In short,I am an idiot and I have no permission to the file to read in apk file of apps.

What does your app and reading a (text) file from the assets have to do with permissions?
You only confuse the other users by not explaining this in more detail.

As far as I remember your app correctly, no storage permissions are required for your app and should therefore neither be requested nor granted.

[Masayoshi_Y]

Anke-san,

I check about this "runtime error" again and show detail below.

First , I show you about my smartphone environment.
Android version:4.0.4
Mobile Phone:Sony Ericsson SO-03D

It's so old one.

Second, adb environment.
adb version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.32

adb devices
List of devices attached

Thus,case1 only have an errors for reading files that I think around a permission and a relevant things.

Thanks anyway.

I think that case3 will be occured a runtime error at first time,because of file compornent does not have write permission to anywhere.

At this time,case3 ran after case2,so "debug.txt" has already existed and be able to read it ,so runtime error may not be occured.

I think that an app need to put a some files to an asset directory or anywhere,file component must be set a write permission on a designer of a companion I think.

If you try to read a text file from the assets by using a double slash // in front of the filename, this is only possible if the FileScope is set to Legacy.

Note:
To access a file from the assets (regardless of media or non-media files) NO storage permissions are needed regardless of the Android version. However, to access a file from the ASD before Android 4.4 (API 19) storage permissions are requested.

My app works fine but I am being in debuggi now.

Thanks a lot.
