bGeigieNano and bGeigieZen not found as sensor.

Firstly, I am very pleased to have come across this amazing initiative. For approximately six years, Safecast was unable to connect their devices to new Android systems (it's a long story).

I downloaded the app on my Android tablet, and using the bGeigieNano or the bGeigieZen in BLE mode, I can connect the device with the tablet via API. However, when I try to find the devices through the app, they do not appear. Am I overlooking something?

Could you please confirm if the app is compatible with Safecast devices? I noticed that it seemed to work with a bGeigieNano in a YouTube video.

Hi @robouden yes, OpenRadiation is supposed to work with Safecast device. Did you try with the latest version available on the Playstore ?

Alex,

Thanks for the reply. I will try. In the meantime, we have a new app nearly ready to be deployed. Take a look at https://github.com/Safecast/bGeigie-Drive.

Alex,

I checked with the latest from the play store (sep26 2024) but the app does not find the bGeigieZen (Bluetooth and in drive mode). The bGeigie-drive app finds the bGeigieZen and connects correctly.

Alex,

I dived into the Android Studio and managed to get the build going in Bet and Dev 3.1 modes. They run on my tablet API30 and on the emulator (API30 and 35). The app runs, but no sensors detected. How to trouble shoot the issue?

Hereby some screenshot for the app and screenshot for the bGeigie-drive app that can detect the sensors on the tablet.
