Maybe this helps? I'd rather not side-load if it can be avoided, due to a troubled past doing so in very early Android days. So, it must have something to do with folder access, or permissions, etc. I have confirmed that Free42 is sensing the rotation and "knows" which mode it's in when opening the dialog. I then copied the *.layout files to the /Downloads folder and then navigate there in the "Skin: Other" dialog and these files are also not visible there, where they should be as this folder is obviously available to the user.
#Android stuff associates with free42 update
Quick update - I compared my new phone (A12) with my old phone (A8) side-by-side and I now notice that when in the "Skin: Other" dialog, the *.layout files are not visible (in the file display area where one would pick a file), even though I've confirmed that these files are actually in the /Free42 folder. I uploaded a 3.0.7 build with target sdk = 29 to - Bob (or anyone else experiencing the screen rotation issue), could you try installing this, and let me know what happens?

It appears to be something that changed in 3.0.7, but I can't 100% rule out that something in the phone (or Android 12) might be the cause. My new phone is actually Android 12 (a Pixel 6 Pro) but as I noted, 3.0.6 was working yesterday on the same phone. My own phone, running Android 8.1, doesn't have the rotation problem, so it's of no use for spotting or troubleshooting the issue I'll see if I can reproduce it in the Android 11 emulator tomorrow. The whole thing was a bit mysterious to me to begin with. Maybe that change defeated the 2.5.24a fix. With 3.0.7, I had to change the target sdk version from 29 to 30, i.e. I may be mistaken but I believe the hardware is quite a bit more powerful than the ti.īy the way I really do not need it to be able to graph, I would actually appreciate a smaller form factor than your typical graphing calculator.ĭoes anyone have any suggestions.(11-08-2021 12:10 AM)Thomas Okken Wrote: That sounds like the issue that I fixed in 2.5.24a, back in January: the app not switching between portrait and landscape skins on Android 11. But I did not hate it the way I did with the casio. I felt that the ti was better in nearly every way. The interface is reminiscent of the ti while to programming and layout is similar to the casio.
The sharp I felt was a blend between the casio and ti. Also, after running a program, you do not have the ability to use the result for calculations without saving it to a variable. There is no shortcut that I am aware of to access from the calculation screen. In order to execute a program you need to go to the main menu and select programs. In my opinion it has the best programming and user interface. The ti from what I have tried is my favourite. But at just under £50 ($70) I would feel cheated when compared to the other options. My issues with the programming are that it has no labels or menus and displaying alphabetical strings is really clunky! If it was available for £30 ($40) I wold probably go for it. For the same price (a little bit more) I can get either a sharp 9950 or a ti 82 stats (ti 83 pro). My first thought was the hp 35s as I love rpn! Unfortunately, here in the uk I believe it is overpriced and underperforms in its programmability. That however may not be representative of the actual experience once you have them in hand. I have played with a bunch of emulators and from that I have formed some opinions. So, I am looking for something that is cheap while also actually being good! Although, because I enjoy free42 so much it is a bit difficult to justify paying for a flagship graphing calculator. It would be much nicer to have a physical calculator. I have been using free42 on my phone and I love it! But, it a bit of a faff having to turn the phone on and open the app. But, I fought it would be handy to have a calculator on hand. I do not need a calculator for any specific purpose.
