Devices are not allocated to room after SYNC in a specific Google Home app.
I confirmed that devices are allocated to rooms in my app on my iphone for the same home,
but not allocated to rooms for the person who lives there.
We can control the decices (like turn on/off),
(49 devices mean all devices that connected through our service)
but it says "49 devices not in a home".
I appreciate if any one can give me a clue to solve this.
App version: 2.49.196
I asked the person to delete all existing devices and rooms that connected, but it didn't work.

Could you please confirm whether the user creates more than one 'Home' in GHA? roomHint is disabled for multi-Home users. Under this situation, they are required to allocate devices into rooms manually.

I want to know how many android and ios application I can connect with Firebase(mainly for cloud firestore) OR mongodb, and what does it mean by "visible apps" in the firebase.
the part I marked in red and what does it matter if an app is visible or not.
The answer to this question is unlimited I guess, as much as I found out there is no limit to the number of app that can be connected to the firebase and max apps is nothing but app visible on the console.
I want to find iPhone devices/device tokens within a specific radius from particular location.
For example : Within a 25 K.M. of radius from Sydney,i want to get iPhone devices tokens.
I am working on ASP.NET MVC2 for this.
Let me know,if is there any API for that?
Thanks,
You are only able to get details for devices that you 'know' about. Your app will need to log unique IDs for each device, and your app will need to log known locations for devices. It's then up to you to look up, from your central database, the details of the devices within a certain distance. iPhones can update significant location changes when running in the background but it's up to you to track devices and accept the limitations that that data may not always be correct. eg. If a user falls outside connectivity then you will still have an old location logged for that user.
I'm not aware of a single API that offers this services, if you're coding it then in your app you will need to register devices identifiers and location information to a central server. You will also need to create the lookup to query your data to find devices within a location. I am guessing that you might want to send push notifications, in which case your app will also need to register for notification services too.
There is no way for you to discover devices that don't have your app running and you also do not know who the owner is.
I have a location based application that needs to run in the background. I have several iPhones that I am testing on including a older 3G. I register my app to need background location based services and everything works as advertised accept with the older 3G phone. When you press the lock button, it does an applicationWillResignActive: as expected, unfortunately the phone immediately goes into low power mode and that is that. When you have the phone tethered with the USB cable, and then press the lock button, the 3G phone stays alive and correctly reports location changes. When it is disconnected, it goes immediately into low power mode.
The strange thing is that I am pretty sure that it used to work. I want to see if anyone out there has an app running on an older iphone (3G) which registers for location services and is not immediately put into lower power mode when the lock button is pressed. If so, what am I doing wrong.
I followed all the directions, have locations in my Info.plist.
Thanks for your help!
Cheers,
Bryan
I think you are seeing expected behavior.
I noticed on a recent trip with my old 3g the Location Manager appeared to remain active only when the usb supplied power. On usb, unlocking the phone would bring the app up (google maps in this case) immediately with Location Manager active. Without usb, I had to relaunch Location Manager each time I unlocked the phone.
I strongly suspect this is safety/power-saving feature. The Location Manager sucks battery life at a startling rate, especially on older devices. By running the Location Manager continuously while on battery, you could easily flatline a user's phone without their knowledge.
I would be very leery of any design that requires the Location Manager to run continuously in the background. Test it throughly.
You don't want the economic consequences of users deciding that "when I use Bryan's app, my battery mysteriously dies" or the moral consequences of leaving someone in an emergency without a working phone.
Everytime I get a call my old wallpaper shows even though I have a new one. I'm trying to find it on my iOS but I cannot seem to figure out where. So I'm trying to track down what folders gets backed up when i backup my iPhone since I have restored it and it's still there.
(I'm using a jailbroken device)
I know this isn't the actual folder names and etc but it will give you an idea what it's backing up though. Good Luck.

New with iOS 3.1: Videos in the Camera Roll that are 2 GB or larger are not backed up (iOS 4 and later will back up videos 2 GB and larger)
All user documents and settings get backed up, Application settings as well as system settings.
Applications each have a Documents folder that user data can be saved to, so thats pretty much what gets backed up for applications, including app preferences.
These are the Wallpaper locations:

I have manually managed to find out what gets backed up and managed to solve the problem :)
I downloaded the trial of iphone packup extractor http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/ and found what I was looking for.
Also it seems like I just had to change the lockscreen in the iPhone since the file called LockScreen.jpg was the picture I was looking for but since I had another lockscreen using winterboard I didnt think of this.
Good luck to anyone else who has problems similar to this.
I'm looking to put together an app that will figure out other iPhone users in the same area.
I'm curious as to know if it is possible that an app can run in the iPhone memory or in the background and send push notifications to the owner of the phone when someone with the same app is in the area.
I gather I can do this if the App is actively turned on, but am wondering if this is possible say if the users phone is in his pocket for example.
