Background BB10 Alpha mode

Hello world

for those of you who have already installed the latest version of the firmware on their devices-Dev Alpha:

For example, the calendar app. If you have noticed, when application is made in the background, the display switches to a different view when it is passed in the background. In the background, the calendar displays upcoming events

Question is: have you implemented that already? If Yes, how did you do? If not, how would you do it? (In fact, I have no idea, I just noticed today... my guess is that it is something like get the event that enforcement is growing at bottom and then simply to show a different view?) Is not as there is a special event in the latest version of the SDK, but plain old stage.addEventListener (Event.DEACTIVATE, function(e:Event):void {showMyBackgroundView() ;})

But even in this case, the question is what discovered to show if other BB10 devices will have different resolutions... Have not yet tried, but if someone could confirm, that would be great

Yes you can. You must bring your app to sleep periodically to refresh the view. It suggested not to do it too often, but the demos and tutorials that I've seen, this address.

  • Possible to update BB10 Alpha on Mac?

    Hello

    The upgrade of the BB10 alpha page seems to ask you to download the last Director of office for Windows (even if you are on Mac).

    For Mac users, is it possible to upgrade to the new version of BB10?

    Thank you!

    The Desktop Manager with the update for the Mac is now online, and it does not (unlike Windows)!

    https://developer.BlackBerry.com/blackberry10devalphas/update

    I've been on 188 Bundle, so first it was last updated at 197, and after my DevAlpha restarted and then reconnected, it appeared today updated.  It is now installing!

  • BB10 Alpha connect no no DM on Mac

    Just picked up the BB10 peripheral Alpha to KW jam yesterday, but were unable to connect to DM on Mac to get the update. Everyone knows this?

    Error message: unable to connect with this device... bla blah blah blah the BlackBerry Desktop Software and gives me the opportunity to try again or repair (tried both, without going...)

    Here are a few interesting lines, that I pulled on logs of DM:

    The unit on and fits perfectly and didn't do anything for her, beyond setting up wifi and connecting with BBID. I also tried different combinations of device/macbook reboots, DM uninstall/reinstall, repair of the appliance, by changing the type of USB connection, activating/deactivating the mode of development.

    Any ideas?

    OS / X - 10.8.1

    Mac DM - v2.4.0, build 16

    BB10 Dev Alpha - 10.0.4.197

    PS. Also, the device is supposed to come with a plate of micro-sim in housing? Mine isn't...

    I didn't have the patience to raffi, and for a reason, even on Windows, DM takes forever to connect and show me the device password prompt. Also, the hit reboot-time-connected wouldn't show me more the repair option.

    I finally managed to update with what follows (in Win7):

    • DM start
    • Make sure that Dev Alpha is off and plug in USB
    • now, DM very quickly now detects and shows me the repair dialog box
    • go through the process of debrick, as documented
    • then repeat the steps above after delporte

    Something like 1.5hrs later, I finally had my device up to date!

  • BB10 Alpha device not for Linux

    Hi guys! I got a camera of Alpha BB10 of the Jam. Barcelona

    I use Kubuntu Linux x86_64.

    When I connect Alpha device using the USB port, a device screen tell me about the installation of drivers, but only for Windows or Mac. Kubuntu detect device as an audio CD, but cannot climb.

    This means that I can't use Alpha device under Linux, only for Windows or Mac?

    Best regards.

    I found that its really the USB auto detect which merges in Linux.

    For detection of basic working properly, I just go into the config 'Storage & sharing' menu and change the option "USB connection" to "Auto detect" to "connect to Windows.  Now, every time I plug the device you in a Linux machine picks it up very well.

    FYI, the USB connection is basically IP - on USB.  This is not different from WiFi, except to work a bit more smoothly.

    When you enable the 'development' Mode, your computer will probably be re - detect the device to a different (and essentially constant) IP: 169.254.0.1

    PS I do all my development on Linux work, when possible.  (there are a few preview QML bugs that occur mainly on Linux, which could lead me to go to a Windows box instead of temporarily screwing with my video drivers, but it's really just a question when DIY/prototyping UI bits)

  • BB10 alpha device connected to Linux but poster in IDE "not connected"

    Hello

    I use Ubuntu 12.04 and bbnk 10.0.6 for development. My alpha camera can connect to Linux and I can download the configuration previously debugging token created on another Windows XP PC to the device. I also import my key sign created previously on Windows to the current Linux environment. But now the 'not connected' USB to IDE BB10 poster display and cannot deploy any application on the device. What is the reason? He cannot mix the sign key and debug token created on a different platform like Linux vs Windows? Help, please. Thank you.

    Kind regards

    Pigling

    It works very well.  A few tips to remember:

    -Set :-> Parameters of storage and access-> USB connections (connect to Windows)

    (Automatic detection does not work with Linux)

    -Make sure development Mode is set to 'works '.

    S ' sure "ifconfig usb0" returns something, preferably 169.254.0.2

    S ' ensure that you can test the DA dev mode IP: 169.254.0.1 (this is the default)

    If all the above works, then you should be able to use it with the IDE.  If the IDE thinks that it is not connected, ignore the error and try anyway.

  • Simulator chips and debug BB10 Alpha

    Hello

    How to run BB10 Simulator alpha?

    Is it acquisitions have chips of debugging for Simulator?

    How to create debugging tokens?

    Thank you and best regards,

    The Simulator does not require a token of debugging.

    If you have an alpha of dev, you can use the Setup Wizard in Flash Builder to run you

    through creating a debug token:

    If you aren't using Flash Builder but using instead command-line tools, use the command:

  • BB10 Alpha Firmware Dev

    Hello

    I recently had the BB10 Dev Alpha device, and I have a question about updates of the firmware:

    1. How will I know that my device contains last version of the firmware available?

    2. How can I upgrade to the latest firmware and/or reload the OS image to him?

    I read BB10 Dev Alpha FAQ here:

    https://developer.blackberry.com/devzone/blackberry10devalphas/faq,

    and, according to the answer to question 4 ("my device does not start, what can I do?") There should be a way to reload the image of an operating system on the device ("b. There could be a problem with the OS image. Please try to reload the operating system by using the steps described here. ") but I can't find either no description of this procedure in this FAQ, or links to"here", where he could be described.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    You will be able to upgrade the BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha with a future beta version of the Desktop Manager.  So far we did not an OS for BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha update.  Please see the instructions supplied with your dev alpha for the procedure on registration for the beta program of BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

  • Weird bug?  Transparent background is black instead of checkered in RGB mode

    If I try to do a new RGB document with the content of the value Transparent canvas background is filled with black instead of the motif model.  However more in the layers window the small icon of the layer shows as transparent with the checkerboard. In the channels window, it seems too transparent, and if I click on one of the channels that allows to select only one canvas changes from black to the ground.  If I click on the RGB layer above the canvas becomes again black.

    Why this is happening and how to fix it?

    If I open a new document in CMYK mode, I get the checkerboard like I'm supposed to.

    I bought a new PC a few days ago and it is a new installation of Adobe CS4 on Windows 7.  Photoshop is updated to version 11.0.2.

    I swear that this was not the case a couple of days, when I installed it first, and it has never happened on my old XP computer.

    Edit to add: all files show a black background in RGB mode rather than the ground grid, not only when you create a new document.

    What are the Photoshop > Preferences > transparency & Gamut > transparency settings?

    Mat-text:

    Powering the OpenGL in the Performance preference and restarting Photoshop have no bearing on the question?

    Except that are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed routines normal troubleshooting (trashing prefs in now command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift key while starting Photoshop, deactivation of 3rd-party plug-ins, system maintenance, validation of fonts, etc.)?

  • Try a background image with a PNG with transparency matte / partial transparency

    Hello everyone.

    Here's the scenario;

    1. I have a PNG sequence rendered in a 3d program. The sequence has a landscape that is partially transparent and has no background image or color. In the animation, which is not the landscape is 100% transparent, while the landscape is partially transparent.
    2. I have a background that I want to put behind the PNG sequence but I don't want the background visible through the part of the landscape of the sequence, only the portion that is 100% transparent.

    I tried several different methods, but because the landscape is partially transparent, with a matte (alpha or alpha reverse) or blend (such as stencil alpha) mode does not give me the results I'm looking for.

    I'm looking for is a way of mast (or mask) the background image with only the part of the PNG that is 100% transparent. In this way, the background image are not displayed in the semi transparent landscape, but will be visible in the part that is 100% transparent.

    I would like to find a reasonable solution in After Effects, as opposed to the sequence of 3d objects rendered being invisible to the camera and the current background. The landscape scene itself took a considerable amount of time to make (120 hours) and I would like to avoid this kind of delay in my project.

    Thank you all in advance for your consideration.

    Maybe I said incorrectly: you cannot use the 3D app to generate a matte black and white simple - or mattes - to separate properly, then just composite in AE?
