Scringo

Hi, bit of a newbie with all this stuff but the support on this forum is A+ compared to any other forum I've been a member of. My question is can you add Scringo to an app not on the market? I got a bit lost when it started to ask for my App ID. Cheers! James

If you are developing for iOS, you have to set the app up in itunes connect first...description, screenshots, metadata, etc (you don't need to have an app live in the app store or even submitted to get the app ID) Once you have everything set up in the itunes store, you can find the app ID under "App Information" Hope this helps!

Unfortunately I haven't developed an app for Android, yet. Try emailing [email protected] for help with installation of their SDK. If the app is on the market, you can grab the package name by the following URL... http://market.android.com/search?q=pname:<package_name> However, I am not sure about not on the market. Best advice is to contact Scringo directly.

Hello Neon, You do not need your app live either on App Store or on Google Play Store in order to include scringo in it. Register a new app by clicking Add new app. All you need to fill in the next screen is the App's name and click next button. The fields marked with star are compulsory and other fields can be filled on later when your app gets live on either store. After you get your app registered with scringo you will get an App Id which needs to be put in the scringo properties file (for android) along with twitter and facebook app id and secret key. Registering on twitter and facebook are optional. For more info on how to create new app on twitter and facebook go to following link: Twitter----- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42553454/MySkylla's%20Guide/Articles/SDK%20Tutorials/Scringo.html#Twitter Facebook----- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42553454/MySkylla's%20Guide/Articles/SDK%20Tutorials/Scringo.html#Facebook Hope you find this info useful.

Great thanks for that help, although Im a bit stuck on the earlier stages. I've just included my google maps API key into the string.xml and I've got an error in the R.Java folder 'String' Syntax Error on token "0" delte this token. The 0 is the initial number of my API key. Any solutions? James

I dont know what the solution is for this error. But setting a google map for scringo is optional too like fb and twitter. If you intend to use the radar feature in scringo then you need to set the google map. Find more info on how to set google maps in bt app from the myskylla.com.

I had an issue with maps on the Android app I put together, while the error may be different with eclipse, the solution may be similar, see this thread Making sure the right google 2.2 API v8 is loaded http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=0A347A31A1649D835F8078B&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1 Excellent advice and help from Mark (GoNorthWest) with a great video.

Are you using the google maps API release key or the debug key?

Can you send me your project file (the zip file you downloaded from bt) along with necessary values of Maps API key, scringo app id, fb app id, twitter app secret key and id. I will take a look at it and try to set up scring to your project. My mail sandeepkurne (at) gmail (dot) com

Got Scringo working now (many thanks to Sandeep for sending me through the updated file). Just a few more questions: 1. I am having trouble enabling test users using scringo.setdebugmode(true); above the previous call but it can't get it to work. 2. By including an 'allow plugin' do I need to do anything else besides enabling 'Start Tracking Location (turn on GPS)' in my core properties? It seems as when I disable GPS in my app, it is still tracking my location. Again, much appreciated for advice!! James
