Connect button hidden on Kindle Fire

Post by bklyn »

The kindle fire does not have hardware buttons for home and back, so they have a bar at the bottom. Issue is that the live_Mobile app does not request a full screen so the connect button is hidden by the button bar making it impossible to connect.

Can the buttons be moved up in the next version or maybe the app will request a full screen?

I have downloaded the updated version and was able to try it out. It still has the same issue on both portait and landscape mode in that the buttons are so far down the screen that the buttons are covered up by the home bar at the bottom as the kindle does not have hardware home and back buttons. If I can get the ability to connect the kindle fire will be the prefect device for running the app as its only $199 and has great battery life.

The kindle will hide the home bar if the app requests full screen mode, but it seems the way its coded now does not request full screen but instead has a window that is drawn to size, which is causing the issue.

How did you put live_mobile on your kindle? And was the problem you mention ever fixed?
