Black screen on PR1.0

[altunero]

We've successfully deployed our app to Nokia Store. However, the QA team failed it with message below:

Failed QA.
SUMMARY: A blank screen is displayed when launching the application .
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Download and install the content.
2. Launch content and observe it.
ACTUAL RESULT: When launching the application, application is not properly displayed and it displays a black screen.
EXPECTED RESULT: The application should provide full functionality on all screen orientations. Content is displayed on device screen without any issues and is free of any illegibility and cropping issues.
AFFECTED DEVICES: N9 Firmware: V 10.2011.34-1_PR_001.
FREQUENCY REPRODUCED: 100%.

NOTE: The issue only occurs on the PR1.0 firmware, but cannot be reproduced on PR1.1.

So, we don't have a PR1.0 device. How can I test it, any advice? Also, we've used DatePicker on extras package. What would you recommend me to do/use, instead?

A final question; shall we not use new components for our future apps, and what's gonna be for future Harmattan releases?

Hi,
Nokia provides remote devices service, but as far as I know, developers updated all available Harmattan devices to PR 1.1.
I contacted the person responsible of those in order to add a new PR 1.0 one.

QA rejects all apps which don't work with PR 1.0, I think policy won't be changed with future Harmatta releases.
If you need an extra component, you can add it to your package as extra file if it's not so much work.

UPDATE: It looks there are alreadty some PR 1.0 devices available. on RDA

Does anybody managed to fix that? I have mostly the same issue:

Comments from the QA team:
Failed QA.
ISSUE: SUMMARY: A blank screen is displayed when launching the application.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Download and install the content OTA.
2. Launch content and observe.

AFFECTED DEVICES: N9 Firmware: 10.2011.34-1_PR_001.
FREQUENCY REPRODUCED: 100%. (public, Qa in progress -> Qa failed)

The file failed QA on the following target(s):

* Device: MeeGo - 854x480 - Nokia N9

Please address the issues and resubmit your application or media for reassessment.
NOTE: The problems encountered may affect several targets in the distribution list and they must be corrected for ALL instances.

By "that" you are referring to?

There is at least one 10.2011.34-1 device to test on Remote Device Access now.

[Turnik]

Well, I meant that the guy has mostly the same issue that I have. Maybe he already solve it with his app, and can share additional info about actual problem. Anyway, I will try today to reflash my N9 to PR 1.0 and test it my self, if possible.

[mikkovtr]

OK. Most likely you are using some component which is not available in PR1.0. About flashing to old version, is it even possible since I see only warnings about even trying?

[Turnik]

Yes, you are right, it is not possible to downgrade from PR1.1 to PR1.0 for now...
I just guessing now that it can be the problem with those lines in my QML files:

import QtQuick 1.1
import com.nokia.meego 1.0
import com.nokia.extras 1.1

maybe I should use

import QtQuick 1.0
import com.nokia.meego 1.0
import com.nokia.extras 1.0

for PR1.0 instead, maybe someone know the right versions to use for PR1.0?

[Turnik]

Ok, I guess that I was right, just got answer in that thread:
QA failed with old N9 firmware but ok for my new N950 firmware
