Hi,

 

Try to use the TryToSetCurrent() method. I.e. instead of

Mobile["Refresh"]()
if(Mobile["Device"](device)["Exists"]==true)

use

if(Mobile["TryToSetCurrent"](device))

...

and move

Mobile["Refresh"]()

to the end of the

while(aqDateTime["Now"]()<endtime)

loop in order not to do unnecessary refresh if the device is already found.

 

Does it help?

    Hi Alexkaras,

     

    Thank you for your suggestion but it didn't help. It happened because sometimes testcomplete doesn't recognize the device.

     

    I just update my script and it works as expected.

     

    adding: check the property is empty or null, if null I will refesh the usb port and check it again.

     

    So far, it works for me.

      Hi,

       

      Thank you for the update.

      Yes, for some reason TestComplete (or adb?) sometimes loses connection to the device.

       

      > [...] if null I will refesh the usb port and check it again.

      Just wondering if you do this programmatically within your test code or just manually reconnect the device?

        AlexKaras,

         

        I did it automatically with the script as below:

         

        I launch CMD and run the command line "adb usb"
