Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
Good news. I'm going to post the update to the Store today. It should be available within a week if everything goes well. Since there were quite a lot of changes, I decided to release it as 1.4.0. Here is the final (hope so!) changelog:
* Changed default device pixel ratio to 1.5 * Implemented widget settings view * Implemented a widget setting to use device pixel ratio of 1.0 * Implemented support for viewport meta tag * Implemented support for update discovery and installation for packaged Firefox OS web apps * Implemented window.matchMedia() to support Marketplace browser detection of mobile device * Implemented support for loading widget icons from data URIs (only works inside manager for now) * Implemented navigator.mozApps.getSelf() * Implemented support for locked screen orientation via tizen:setting element * Fixed Firefox OS Marketplace widget to use UA string not detected as an Android device * Fixed trying to install newer versions of packaged Firefox OS web apps saying it's already installed * Fixed widget details page to show it's header text with same color as other pages do * Fixed update description document ETags to support broader character set via base64 encoding * Fixed installing packaged Firefox OS web app from Marketplace when temp directory does not exist * Fixed widget update description document being downloaded when server return 304 status code * Fixed docked view mode viewport being slightly bigger than the shown area |

This happened so rarely and with the installation practically complete (you may need to create the launcher entry from widget settings if you encounter this) that I decided to postpone fixing it to the next version. If anyone knows what causes this kind of process death, please let me know. |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support

Thanks for the update.
I saw an update for the firefox marketplace from 0.01 to 0.02. I hit 'update' but it seems the installation is not done properly: it is stuck with the bar filed (as if download complete) but nothing else happening and the market place seems to be still at 0.01? |

Or if you have developer mode enabled and are willing to help, I could assist you in taking some logs from the case and check if I can find out what's causing that. |

hi sviox.. Thanks for your app.
I think there is a bug. In the firefox market there is grey rectangle hide what is behind it. A screen shot in the attachment. |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
abufaisal.o,
That happens to me while scrolling; its a momentary "lag" which is fixed by scrolling over that area again... |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
I have developer mode enabled, so i can try to help debug the issue. I can at least confirm that the problem persists and each time i launch hydra, the update is available and the same issue arises.

Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
This is weird.. it seems that Nokia's HERE maps has disappeared from Firefox Marketplace. I wonder what's going on behind the scenes.. Anyway, if you have it installed, hold on to it in case it's not coming back!

In a nutshell, if any of you have similar problems installing updates, it is caused by non-existing temp directory used by Hydra's installer component. You can force this directory into existence by installing any application package. After that the update should work. |
Bought v1.4.0, its pretty nice however the old issue of Microsoft office 2007 and later format don't open.
Hope there is a solution for it someday :) |

Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
Now updates are integrated with the OS, great! But updating apps do not work very well, HERE Maps was upgraded from 1.8.58 to 1.8.61, after loosing the icon (now only a green quircle) Also updating lasts forever, have to swipe down to close.
And seems we can't get apps in the background, it keeps closing when i swipe away :( |

The green squircle is a weird issue, I think I encountered it once too. I'll have to investigate that further. Might have an idea or two on what's causing it. And the part about closing when swiping away - that usually only happens for drawing intensive apps, and is caused by some weird issue within QtWebkit. Not sure if this can be fixed without Nokia support unfortunately. |
Is it possible for Web apps not to be full screen? Its kind of annoying.

Gmaps - search
Search on Google maps doesn't work for me!
I'm doing something wrong or it is just not available? Thanks Milko |

I'll see what I can do about this. I could write a few questions to Nokia about China. |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
The main issue IIRC is that Nokia have stopped selling apps for Harmattan to the China market. Only free apps are listed while paid apps are not listed there.

EDIT: Oh wait, seems I forgot to declare the new API URL for access request policy. Try turning off the access request policy from the manager's settings and it should work. |

Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
I'm finalizing a midsummer update (1.4.2) and I'm quite excited to tell you that I *think* I have successfully fixed the crash issue that has randomly occurred in graphics heavy widgets when swiping them to launcher. It was caused by MCompositor's (Meego's windowing system of a sorts) incompatibility with QtWebkit, but I found a fix that seems to have bypassed this issue. Here is the full changelog so far:
* Implemented possibility of choosing a preferred view mode for a widget * Implemented progress bar and status text to indicate download and extracting progress during installation * Implemented help text when starting app binary from shell without parameters * Implemented mechanism to lock widgets while updating, installing and uninstalling * Implemented cancel functionality to download phase of widget installation * Added multiple improvements and fixes to Google Maps application * Added version of available update to details page * Fixed Firefox OS apps being shown in fullscreen by default * Fixed launcher icon changing to green placeholder icon after updating a widget in PRO version * Fixed graphics heavy apps crashing when swiping out of them * Fixed running out of /tmp/ disk space by downloading packaged apps and updatesto /var/tmp/ instead * Fixed local update packages being copied to tmp directory before being installed from * Fixed downloading icons for Mozilla web apps when manifest URL contains query and/or fragment Also, if anyone gets "Failed to extract" or "Invalid configuration file" errors while trying to install a widget, it might be caused by full /tmp/ directory. Rebooting the phone will automatically clear that directory so please give it a try. I'll implement a better model for storing temporary install files for a later version. EDIT: Updated changelog with some new items. I discovered that Firefox marketplace changed the way it refers to app resources, which caused some issues with downloading and displaying icons for apps installed from there. Also got rid of the /tmp/ issue mentioned above. |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
1.4.2 should be out any minute now. Let me know if you find anything weird or have any other thoughts on it.

Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
File mixup in the store?
I've got the PRO version installed. Store shows there is an update but it only offers me the install-button. However the regular version is shown as installed and offers a start button. |

You should try to force update checking using the actual Debian package manager tools that come with the device (i.e. settings / application / manage applications / updates). Otherwise the device will check for updates about once per day automatically. You can also use MeeCatalog (http://store.ovi.com/content/220215) to refresh the package catalog (including updates). It might also be that the update is not yet available - the Store only reports to me that it's be available "within few hours" and that was about 5 hours ago now. |
Re: [N9] Hydra Widget Platform v1.3 from Sviox, now with Cordova support
It's available :) updated from the store, not from the application manager! :)
