Hello,

Android version: 10

Hello,


1.What would be the exact Unite app version that you are having issues with?
- It's 4.2.18036.38

2.Have you made any changes related to hardware or software before the issue started? If yes, please provide as many details as possible.
- No.

3.Please provide the following information about the Samsung devices:
- There are J5, A40, S10, etc with Android 10 or 11. But Samsung works fine.

Devices that doesn't work:
- Honor 20, Andoid 10
- Huawei P20 Pro, Android 10


4.Can you please describe to us the error that you are getting, also does any error messages appear on the screen while trying to present?

 

I attached a video and log file, when my colegue was trying to connect from Honor 20

In the attached video, is server address added manually. But it has the same behavior, as automatic setting.

Log file shows, that it cannot find the DNS TXT record, but DNS record exists, because other devices works fine.

Also there is and error with connecting to PTR-lookup server on. So my guess is that it can't resolve the name?

All mobile devices are in the same network, but only those two types doesn't work.

 

5.Are the errors intermittent?
- No. It's permanent.

6.Were you ever able to present with these Huawei devices before or is this the first time that you install the app on them to try to present from them as clients?
- It never worked.

 

Thank you for help.

Hello Victor,

I'm still gathering those log files.

Transaction log is quite unique, because one is 1,5GB and the second one is 3,5GB

"I discovered some strange network configuration of the device."

That's probably the spyware that the U.S. Government claims is in Huawei devices!

Hello,

 

I got confirmed from network team, that everything si fine for them. But it's not working.

We have working 300+ mobile devices, even one Huawei P20 joined. so this issue must be on a specific device.

I will install wireshark on the servers and try to look into communication.

Logs are attached.

Best regards,
Zdenek

Hello Victor,

 

1. These models are very rare. We know about 3 models, only one is functional.

2. Yes, Unite app is up tu date.

3. I will try to collect it.

We were not able to do a network test with wireshark, yet. Also we have national holidays and vacation season has started, so it will be slightly difficult to schedule our free time to od a test.


When I will have some new information, I will let you know.

 

Best regards,

Zdenek

Hello Victor,

With some other help I managed to get the manual pairing to works.

There isn's public guide how to manuall pair the mobile device with Unite server.

There are several options:
Go to the landing page and click the url link. Then in configuration switch to the "manual".

Or use the "Add organization" button in the app, where is needed to put the whole url link. Then also switch to the manual.

Also there is another device, that cannot somehow read the DNS record - Samsung Z Fold. Workaround I mentioned before, works.


Best regards,

Zdenek
