features malfunction after update

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Q. What Android hardware device do you own?  (HTC Hero, Samsung Galaxy,
etc)

A: HTC Amaze 4G

Q. On what Android operating system version? (2.1, 2.2, Honeycomb 3.0.1
etc)

A: 2.3.4

Q. What DACP server, OS, and version? (OSX iTunes 10.1.2, Windows 7
MonkeyTunes 1.5.1 etc)

A: iTunes 10.6.1.7 running on Windows 7 and iTunes 10.6.1.7 running on OSX 
(problems appear with both OSs)

Q. What TunesRemote+ version? (found on Menu->More->About)

A:  2.5.0

Please provide any additional information below.

  Context menu that is supposed to pop up does not appear fully on screen. Only a small portion of the menu actually shows up. Problem goes away after a force stop of the app (menu will appear properly only ONCE after app is stopped). When menu actually appears, none of the buttons will register a press. Finally, the option to choose which speakers to use does not appear at all. All of these issues only started after the latest update.

Attached image is screen shot of tunesremote+ after pressing the menu button. 
At the bottom, there is a small portion of the menu visible.

OK I just uploaded 2.5.1 to the Android market with some fixes.  It might take 
a couple of hours before it appears on your phone but when it does can you try 
it and report back?

Looks like another user has an issue with the speakers dialog as well not 
working since the 2.5.0 release.

"I prefer winamp but this remote works so well with iTunes and allows me to 
control which speakers it goes to so well that I use iTunes over WA. One issue 
with new layout I have had is the speakers select window is not letting me 
change or manage speakers. It closes to an "OK" window. Will add 5th star if 
this is fixed as it the main reason for my use of this remote."

I'm "the" user :-) . I will wait for the update and see if that fixes the issue.

Just got the update... unfortunately the speaker issue remains. Please let me 
know what if there is anything further I can test.

I updated, but the menu issue remains unchanged. I will continue to test and 
report any changes.

Success! After updating, I force closed the app and cleared the app data. In 
iTunes preferences, chose option to forget all remotes. Re-paired tunesremote+ 
with iTunes library, and issues were fixed. Menu functionality was fine, and 
speaker select dialog worked properly. Thank you!

Can't say I've had the same success.  I tried the same steps as listed above 
but speakers menu issue still persists for me on both nexus galaxy and zoom.

It seems I was premature in my declaration of success. After leaving the wifi 
network (without disabling wifi), and returning, the remote again displayed the 
same problems. Clearing data, force stopping, and re-pairing again solved the 
issue.

I hope this information helps narrow down the trouble.

The speaker issue definitely sounds like a problem that needs to be addressed 
with a code fix which we will track with Issue #101 created by geocas1.

As for the other issues with the weird menu's displaying and not displaying I 
will have to think about that one some more and what could possibly be causing 
it.

I've made some observations, hopefully someone can start to see a pattern 
emerging:

1. When I initially start up the tunesremote+ app, it reconnects to the last 
known library. At this point, the menu will appear if the menu button is the 
FIRST button pressed (no play/pause commands or anything else). The menu is 
unresponsive, but it appears. Subsequent pushes of menu button will result in 
the small menu showing at the bottom (as descibed earlier). All on-screen 
buttons still function properly.

2. When I exit the app using the home button, the app does not disconnect from 
the library. Thus, the first button press will result in the same error of the 
menu not showing up. (Stay connected in background is not selected).

3. When I exit the app using the back button, the app disconnects from the 
library. Upon re-launching the app, the error may or may not occur.

4. Very rarely, the menu will show with the first button press, but it will be 
EMPTY (see attached image).

5. If the menu pops up and does not show the speaker select option, I know that 
it will become unresponsive.

6. Once in a while, the menu shows up, the speaker select option appears, and 
the menu buttons are functional. Then I have to do my best to remember to use 
the Home button to use other apps on my phone, so that tunesremote+ does not 
disconnect. If I disconnect, it's a gamble whether the app will work properly 
or not.

7. These observations are the same whether connected to iTunes on OSX or 
Windows 7.

Hope that helps! I've attached some screen shots to illustrate. Thanks again 
for the work, the support, and the FREE and ad free app!

tested it out on nexus galaxy and xoom with ICS 4.0.4 and simmiliar issue with 
the speakers except now when you click on a speaker from the selection instead 
of it closing to a OK window it collapses to a window that says "computer 
airport speakers"

let me know what else I can test out thanks

LOL ok my girlfriend just laughed at me for laughing out loud about "something 
beta 2 and beta 1".

Ill test Beta 2 after I get a bite to eat and will see if that fixed the issue 
in Beta 1.

Oh geek humor. :)

I appreciate the testing.  I don't have a real ICS device to test on so the 
emulator can never be fully trusted. :)

Also can you test #104 I wasn't able to verify this.

Original comment by mellowaredev on 11 Jul 2012 at 1:05

OK I updated 104 to reflect your comments I will hopefully be able to fix that 
one too and then I think 2.5.2 is ready for the Android Market.
