Android 18.0.19 - Issue with Staging and Accelerate prompts

Post by rickyfrohnerath »

Hi Harry:

I'm trying to run Petrolhead v18.0.19 on my Moto X for AutoX, but there appears to be an issue with the "Press 'Staged'" and "Accelerate to start lapping" prompts. Basically, they persist and prevent me from accessing any other part of the app's interface. I even see a "Press to Cancel" on the accelerate prompt that I can't click or doesn't really exist. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, but this issue remains. Please help.

So you get the initial message to move to the staging area and finally get "Press 'Staged'"? You press this button and "Accelerate to start lapping" appears? When you accelerate, nothing happens? In which way is the phone mounted?

I can press "staged" to get the accelerate prompt and accelerate to start the lap. And the lap automatically ends at the set finish, no problem. But then either the "take position" or the staging prompt returns immediately, so I'm stuck in an endless cycle of laps.

This means you finish near the starting point and LapTimer starts over... You should be able to dismiss the alert temporarily by touching the screen outside of the alert. It will come up a minute (need to check) later again, but that is probably enough time to check some results... LapTimer has no feature to disable triggers temporarily, so deleting the triggers altogether is the only other option (besides walking away from the area).

Right - that's what I'd expect, but touching the screen outside of the alert doesn't dismiss them (for me, at least). Specifically, it appears to dismiss them for a fraction of a second, but they return immediately.
