One of our clients has come back to us today with a bug that has been found on the Torch 9860 (running OS 7.0).
It seems my app is running in a small box in the centre of the screen, with a big blue border surrounding it. If the soft keyboard is not showing, there is a black box where the keyboard would be.
This issue has not been reported before on other devices, and the app has been "in the wild" for a while. I have not seen it on our test devices - but do not have a Torch 9860 to test with.
I have attached photos of the app running on the device. The blue border is the problem - normally my app would fill the whole screen. I did not create the blue border (to the best of my knowledge).
Apologies for the photos - this is what they sent to us.
Showing the app running in a small box surrounded by the blue border. Note the black space where the keyboard would be if it was required.
Showing the app with the soft keyboard visible.
With some googling, I found 1 possible reference to this issue to do with an instant messaging app not showing correctly on 9860. Feedback was that they were looking into it.
I wonder who else has seen this, or can recommend solutions?
Updates
runs fine on the 9860 emulator
seems to be mentioned in this thread: Blackberry OS 7 Compatibility failed with 9860/9850 device
Thanks, Rafael (left answer in a comment to my question).
Based on the comment I told the client to run the app in compatibility mode (accessed through the system options - application options menu). This seems to have fixed the problem without me having to recompile for SDK 7.0 (also I don't have to start supporting multiple OS's yet).
I already had the blackscreen on bottom when the keyboard should be popped. But it happened rarely and get resolved with an update of the Blackberry
Ask for the OS version/platform of the Blackberry, and propose a update to him, if available.

I am trying to install an app using Xcode 12.5 on my personal device which is an iPhone 7 plus running iOS 15 underneath.
I got it to work after much hassle by adding iOS 15 device support files, but, after the app installs and launches itself, I get a black screen for like a minute or two and then the app works fine.
However, if I debug it takes approximately 30-40 seconds from jumping to one breakpoint to another and it consumes a lot of time.
I have tried scouring for a lot of information on this but no luck. Any solution for this would be appreciated.
You probably disabled your Splash screen that is why black screen appears.
Go in your LaunchScreen.storyboard file, there you will find a Screen Controller. Make it story board entry point and give it a background color of your choice.
I have a problem with the Sidecar and Touch Bar feature of iPad and MacOS Catalina.
I can connect and see everything on the iPad including the Touchbar.
If I focus an application which is displayed on the iPad the Touchbar shows the corresponding Touchbar correctly.
After focussing an application on one of my other displays (MacBook or external HDMI displays) the Touch Bar does not update and change.
If I put that application on the iPad screen, then the TouchBar changes and shows the corresponding items.
This is really annoying when I am working with programming IDEs with nice TouchBar support. But I really don't want to put that IDE on my smaller iPad screen.
Is anyone else experiencing this and/or has a workaround?
Cheers
In iOS 11.2 application I have noticed an unusual behaviour (opening forcefully closed apps, sometimes shows the previously visible view and redirect to the launch screen), I don't know whether it is bug with OS or something else but it can sometime appear in Google app also.
You can find the related video in below link.

Please help me to figure it out whether it is a feature or bug.
In my opinion, it's rather a bug or just normal behaviour, not a feature. There is some time before the app is dropped from the RAM, used to save some data, e.g. in appWillTerminate, etc., but it should not make an effect like you have observed. From the second hand, maybe device holds the image of how app looks like before the rage quit and shows it up, then freshly opens the app.
We're developing a web app that extensively uses Cavas 2D for some demos, and is successfully running on both iOS and Android devices. Recently we've added stand-alone mode for iOS devices, so user has to "Add-To-Home-Screen" and run it using screen icon, just like regular app.
What happens recently is that after 10-12 times we start the web app on iPhone4:
Status bar (initially set to 'black') suddenly turns white and we cannot exit Safari (by pressing home button).
If we try to make screen shot (home + power button), shutter sound is played as if screen shot was taken and saved.
If we try to lock the device (power button), screen turns black, but no action after that can bring unlock-screen or any screen for that matter - display remains black.
We can only do reset by pressing home + power for 10 seconds after this point.
If we do not lock the device, web app continuously work with no issues at all, it does not crash, but cannot exit it (double click on home button also has no result).
Has anyone experienced this with their web apps?
Any guidance in how to debug this would be highly appreciated. We've tried using Safari on OSX, connect iPhone to it and use Develop -> iPhone menu but no luck so far.
Thanks in advance!
I would start trying to debug by running XCode with the iPhone connected to the computer.
In XCode open "Organizer" and go to the tab "Devices".
You should see your device there, from which you can view the iOS console. That might be able to tell you what is going wrong with the phone stops responding.
I don't think you have to put the phone in development mode (or be a paid developer) to see the iOS console.
Has anyone experienced this behavior? Is there anything I can do about it?
When running any of my apps in the iOS simulator, my screen (external monitor) will show a patch of dimmer colors. Usually the whole simulator, but sometimes the line cuts right through it.
This happened in all versions of xcode from 4 to the latest GM of xcode 5.
It's frustrating because I like to record the screen to show demos of my apps, but the constant dimming / un-dimming makes it look bad.
