Dear Denis,

   It may not be possible to have the  Cyrillic keyborad by default, with English as the language setting on the device.
   Though if the language settings of device is set to Russian the Cyrillic keyboard would be available as default.
   If we need to have Cyrillic always we may need good amount of custom implementation. 
We are checking  this ... will get back to you on this.

 We will be starting work on the next items but before that we will be doing some clean-up of the code e.g.:
  Removing magic literals,
  Removing commented out dead code,
  Removing unused images(those used for english version)
  Removing the log messages
  Remove unwanted code
   (eg:-code for adding labels for english version which are not in russian version)
 
Etc.

Regards,
-Sudhir

Sudhir,

You are right, keyboard should be cyrillic if device is set to cyrillic, but currenty, my iPad is set to Russian, but keyboard opens as English

Kind regards,
Denis.

Just checked on the device here.

I changed language to Russian .. and on login page the keyboard is appearing in Russian. 

Will double check .. if there is anything done in code ... could be a bug.

We had uploaded another build in testflightapp  ... if you happen to notice this issue in that also pls. do let us know.

Regards,
-Sudhir

My iPad is set to Russia locale, and it has Russian keyboard enabled, but your app always displays English keyboard,

In previous version (done by another developer) russian keyboard was default.

Another item to work on

- if user try to delete last photo at photoselect screen, nothing happens,

I would like to change it into different behavior - if user deletes last photo, he/she is directed to splash screen.

Dear Denis,
 We are done with basic code clean-up and have started on next items.

1. Regarding Cyrillic Keyboard Issue:  For us to check it further pls. let know the details of the device that was used for testing (iOS version, iPad Version, Number of Keyboards configured etc.)

2. Some queries on next items to work on:

  "- phone number input screens, when user inputs 3rd and 6th digit of the number,   
    cursor should move to ...."

   The PSDs show "8" or "7" as the prefixes. Do we need to maintain this prefix ?
    If yes then which one should be used  ("8"  or "7" ) ?

  "- on any screen, except for splash, if there is no user input for given number of 
   seconds (should be set by venue admin, limit for this value should be set - 30sec
   min, 300 sec max, default value 60 sec)"

    Pls. specify what should happen after the time interval. Should the screen be
    locked ?
    Should there be a new screen for the venue admin for  setting the time
    interval ?

Regards,
-Sudhir

Hello Sudhir,

Good news!

1 Cyrillic Keyboard Issue
iOS 5.1
iPad MC775ZP
Three keyboards are configured - English, Russian and Emodsy

2

Please use "7" as prefix

I forgot to type the end of the message)

- on any screen, except for splash, if there is no user input for given number of seconds (should be set by venue admin, limit for this value should be set - 30sec min, 300 sec max, default value 60 sec), application should go to splash screen

The application should never go to sleep!

Let leave this value at 60 sec, I mean there will be no admin screen for the moment. We will add this functionality in next versions.

Denis.

Dear Denis,

Thanks for the device information and other clarifications

We noticed the english keyboard only at one place in the App that is in the login screen. When we select the password field the english keyboard comes-up. This is because it is setup as a secure. (Screenshot attached).
Request you to pls. check if this is the case at your end. If it is so then we can change this behaviour easily. Also if you could attach a screen-shot of the issue it would help us.

For rest of the screens we did check the source code and couldn't find any hard settings for the keyboard. So ideally the App should have followed the device settings (with the exception mentioned above).
To help us explore the issue further would it be possible for you to give some more information:
   1. With the language setting as Russian how does the keyboard in other Apps
      behave ?
      (e.g. I checked the "App Store" app and it behaved as expected by bringing up the Russian keyboard).
 
  2.  Apart from the 3 keyboards could you pls. check the " keyboard layout" setting ?
       This is because i noticed that the keyboard layout setting could be changed  
       independent of the language.
      Also pls. check any other language related setting that is already
      present in the device. Probably not set by you explicitly but maybe factory set.
 
Hope to solve this soon.

Hi Denis,

Information on thread and FIFO for text message and photo message upload.

<quote>

- please check - photos upload to the server should run in separate execution thread, upload process should be FIFO
- please check - text messagees upload to the server should run in another separate thread, FIFO, as well

</quote>

We verified and found the following:
   1. The upload process is Asynchronus and it  is working fine.
   2. The FIFO is not enforced in code. But generally the behaviour is FIFO

Introducing a separate execution thread may probably add complexity. But we can think of enforcing the FIFO by doing sequential uploads.

Pls. advise how you want this to be done.

Regards,
-Sudhir

Sudhir,

It is kind of miracle - but keyboard issue is gone! ))) I do not understand, but it is gone.

Please explain in more details how the process of photo and text upload is done.

Specifically, what would happen if there will be more that one session of photos taken, and there will be a queue.

What would happen if there will be a temporary loss of internet connection?

Denis
