BlackBerry 10 Adobe Air gone permanently.

One of my most used apps was Vault by XLabz. She and a dozen others are dead on my Z30 in BB10.3.1. Here is the response from XLABZ.

"Arch and most of our older applications were built using a technology called Adobe AIR. BlackBerry ceased support for Adobe AIR with their last update of the OS and any application that you have on your device that uses Adobe AIR (many of them on BlackBerry World) would stop working as a result. The only other platform that is supported is Android.

We are now building a native Android version of vault to counteract this problem, but it would mean a few things:

(1) If you have all your data stored on DropBox data would be safe and you can restore data from DropBox as soon as we publish the Android on BlackBerry World version. However, if you do not have backups, then there is no way to get the data back or even back up now since does not allow the old app more to do.

(2) the update is released, you need to delete the old application and manually install the new version. The only upgrade will not work. Remove the old APP will remove all the files that you saved locally for the app - however, if you have your data already backed up, there is nothing to worry about.

(3) we do not have an ETA for the release and it could take about 3-4 weeks for us to release the Android version in the BlackBerry World.

(4) If you don't want to wait, and if you already have a device Android with Google Play access, the version is native Android already available and you can buy it from there.

We understand that this is a big disadvantage for you as a user and our sincere apologies for this. However, as developers we do not drive decision-making platform for BlackBerry there was nothing we could do about it. »

just to add more information:

(1) adobe has decided to abandon the Flash for mobile support. This means that if safety issues, Adobe refuses to correct for the mobile Flash. For BlackBerry and Google are remove the Flash support on their mobile OS (BB10 and Android).

(2) adobe is also declining air support for mobile. Same story as above.

(3) the air developers have been informed of the interruption of air support to 10.3, several months ago. The standard procedure for them is to design a new version of their application, this time is in the Air in Android and release for BlackBerry World, with the same application ID. In this way, the files of the previous version are always accessible by the new version of the app. It seems that this developer has not got everything that in the time before the release of OS 10.3.

(4) for a reason unknown to me, Android does not officially on dropping air support.

  • BlackBerry messenger integration Playbook Tablet Adobe AIR app

    Hello community,

    I need help. I've updated to OS2.0. I want to integrate shraing via BlackBerry Messenger in my application look like adobe for the playbook tablet.

  • PromptDialog question (BlackBerry® Tablet OS SDK Adobe Air)

    I have the following code to display a prompt dialog box in which you can enter text after a user clicks on a button. The prompt dialog box displays 2 buttons: OK and cancel. Whatever button I click, the program is never in the "onPromptButtonClicked" event listener function (I don't see the text "Hello" in the debug output).

    What I'm doing wrong here?

    private function onBtnAddTextClicked (event: MouseEvent): void {}
    var promptromptDialog = new PromptDialog();
     
    prompt. Title = "Title";
    prompt.message = "Please enter the text:";
    prompt.addButton ("OK");
    prompt.addButton ("Cancel");
    prompt.addEventListener (DialogEvent.DIALOG_BUTTON_CLICKED, onPromptButtonClicked);
    prompt. Show();
    }

    private void onPromptButtonClicked(event___ialogEvent):void {}
    trace ("Hello world");
    }

    Hey eugenevk,

    Yes unfortunately this is a bug and I hope it gets fixed soon. It has been discussed on the forums prior and work around it was the following:

    Replace:

    prompt.addEventListener(DialogEvent.DIALOG_BUTTON_CLICKED, onPromptButtonClicked);
    

    with:

    prompt.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onPromptButtonClicked);
    

    and he must do what you need to do. Here is a reference thread if you need more information:

  • error 'BlackBerry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 for Adobe AIR does not support mobile projects."

    Hello

    I installed Adobe Flash Builder Burrito and Blackberry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 on Windows 7. When I start to create a new project by selecting the ' New/ActionScript Mobile Project' menu, then in the new dialog box project of Mobile of ActionScript, I give a project name, and then choose 'BlackBerry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 for Adobe Air. At this point, the 'Next' button is gray on an error message on top as "BlackBerry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 for Adobe AIR does not support mobile projects.". Is there something that I am missing?

    I read somewhere someone comlains error message "BlackBerry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 for Adobe AIR support not projects mobile." occurs after installing Blackberry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.4 while there is no problem with Blackberry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.3. If it is true, where can I download Blackberry Tablet OS SDK 0.9.3?

    Thank you very much in advance,

    @johnwneg, make sure that when installing FB Burrito, you:

    (1) run the installer as administrator.

    (2) select English International rather than NA English.

    Here are some tips to help you get started.  It all depends on the terms that you use for your search.  For the first, I would use "adobe air browse file."  For the second, I start with only a variation as "adobe air download file" and then adjust according to the first results.

  • Adobe Air running on other Blackberry devices?

    Are there outside the Blackberry Playbook, devices current upcoming blackberry or known who will run in Adobe Air?

    Not at the moment. RIM is not pre announce too. QNX is supposed to replace the BB OS running on phones (~ 2012), so, then in theory, AIR will come with that.

    This may seem a stupid question, but I can't find Adobe AIR SDK 2.5 anywhere to download.  I try to install the new SDK Blackberry and he prays the AIR SDK but all I can find online is Adobe AIR SDK 2.6 is not working Blackberry requires 2.5.  Someone at - there a place I can download the SDK from?

    The current website Adobe AIR SDK is 2.6. And BlackBerry WebWorks SDK version 2.5 don't acknowledge that during installation. BlackBerry can be updated in the next release.

  • Confusion WebWorks and Adobe Air

    I'm quite confused and possibly this ad in the wrong place!

    I created an application for the playbook using HTML/Javascript. And compiled using Packager BlackBerry WebWorks for PlayBook. I submitted the app and I got an email from RIM saying I need to:

    Please download using the most recent 0.9.4 SDK

    Now, here's my confusion. This SDK are referring to? The SDK works Web is v1.0.0.23 Beta3 and the Adobe AIR SDK is v2.5. This is the BONE of the tablet which is v0.9.4. Am I supposed to compile against the Tablet OS? I thought it was only for AIR applications with .as and .swf files.

    The documentation is sparse, and I do not know how to proceed. How to compile my html/js files against 0.9.4 SDK?

    SDKs updated March 14, 2011 (v1.0.0.23 Beta3) is updated March 14, 2011 (v0.9.4) simulators

    They want you to compile using the latest version of the SDK... If you have already signed using the leatest... then ignore that email... anyone who has... esp... If you have made at least a version in the past which was built using the older SDK.

  • Adobe Air 2.7 support

    In my view, that there are a new version of Adobe Air 2.7 as seen in this link

    http://blogs.Adobe.com/flashplayer/2011/06/Adobe-Air-2-7-now-available-iOS-apps-4x-faster.html

    The first video, there is mention of the tablet sdk support 2.7. can anyone confirm this? How will be the Tablet SDK works jointly or to expect a new version of sdk tablet based on Air 2.7?

    If it is the latter, when can we expect the next sdk?

    It would be useful to be able to target an Air sdk for all platforms.

    Greg

    Also re-read the blog post. There was a * next to the Tablet OS that read...

    * BlackBerry Tablet OS is scheduled to receive an OTA (over-the-air) of AIR 2.7 update by the end of June.

    That clears things up a bit. Impatient for there - just for consistency and cross platformedness (not a real word!)
