Latest TestComplete and Android 12? For Mobile apps...

Question

Hi folks, using TestComplete 15.41....I have a number of tests that tests include mobile app (Samsung Tablet) ... they always ran fine (Legacy)... have now replaced that older tablet... and have one running Android 12.&nbsp;Now, when I try to Show the Mobile Screen, I get:&nbsp;&nbsp;Unable to get screenshot from deviceCheck that:&nbsp;FLAG_SECURE is not set in display settingsSurfaceView is not #setSecureFLAG_SECURE is not set in LayoutParams of a window&nbsp;The&nbsp; above&nbsp; appears on the display after I click the "Show Mobile Screen"I did a quick check to see if there were any TC Patches available etc... could not see any.&nbsp;Am assuming the latest version of TC does NOT support Android 12?&nbsp; Its not our app, as when I connect the older Tablet (which I believe is running Android 10... don't have it in front of me to validate) all is well.&nbsp; But Android 12, no go?&nbsp;Any help or suggestions appreciated.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ron F.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;------------&nbsp;

Hello Marsha, seems ya'll are correct... Android 12 from what I understand, not supported in Legacy manner... I am working an Appium solution.... as I type.&nbsp; Lol&nbsp;I have appium set up as Local Server... and it now does "see" my new tablet... some of my current test script commands work, and some... not so much.&nbsp; I am in tuning and tweeking mode.&nbsp; Getting some strange behavior as well... for example in a simple login script.... I have 4 commands as an example)...&nbsp;they are:&nbsp;1.) Click the tablet Apps "Login Via Email" button2.) Enter a valid Email address3.) Enter associated password4.) Click Submit&nbsp;Easy.&nbsp; Not yet.&nbsp; Lol&nbsp;If I run this script.... with all statements uncommented....Step 1, runsThen subsequent 3 steps say Object Not Found type of errors...&nbsp;- and yes, I have delayed the Steps 2-4 ... no change... can't find the objects&nbsp;But.... if I have the app at the "Step 1" position.... and Comment Out Step 1, as I did it manually, then run the same script... (with Step1 commented out).... all 3 subsequent steps run fine and dandy.Yep... confused at this point.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So, literally... I can have all 4 commands, uncommented.... run, have step1 run, no prob, gets to next command (step 2) and generates errors.... then, simply comment out step 1, re-run and all the next 3 statements magically find the objects.&nbsp;Anyways, I may be back in touch with Support.&nbsp; Good folks.&nbsp; Very helpful.... I'm sure its something I just can't put a finger on - yet.

Does your mention of Legacy mean that you are using the Legacy mobile testing rather than the Cloud-compatible?
&nbsp;
If so, that only supports up to Android 11 from what I see here

Hi - Thanks for the reply, yes, that is indeed what it means. Legacy Mobile Testing... sure hope the intent is to support Android 12 as well.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ron F.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;------------

Also, something that may or may not be helpful to others using the Local Appium solution for their Android (others?) mobile tests... when you set up your capabilities... I had a heck of a time getting it to work... long story short... I needed to include the "appActivity" then mine worked.&nbsp; For "my" local Appium CAP settings, I ended up using:&nbsp;"deviceName": "&lt;your dev name here&gt;","platformVersion": "&lt;My devices android version here&gt;","platformName": "Android","automationName": "UIAutomator2","app": "&lt;your apk name here&gt;","appActivity": "&lt;I used login activity&gt;"&nbsp;Anyways, not sure if this will be useful as these are "my" settings as an example.... but not having thatlast one set... cost me several hours of checking around etc.&nbsp;I'm sure will be different for many, but for me.... things worked after adding the last entry.&nbsp; Lol&nbsp;&nbsp;
