iOS 7 Support

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. With the new iOS 7 jailbreak, iSynergy Client connects, and the Synergy 
server recognizes that it is connected and the mouse moving between the 2, but 
the cursor is not visible, nor does the Home button key sequence work.

2.

It can connect, but when I try to enter the mouse on the Ipad screen, the 
device reboots in safe mode.

Original comment by meteo2lo...@gmail.com on 1 Jan 2014 at 12:04

I too can connect. The mouse appears in the top left corner for an instant, 
then my iPhone 5 crashes into SafeMode. Perhaps this is a problem with the 
mouse support package, not iSynergyClient.

I'll try to give a more in depth analysis of what I am seeing.

Server:
Windows 7 64-bit = V1.4.15

Client:
iPhone 4s 7.0.4 = V0.9-2

Procedure:
1. Connect client device to server device
2. Move mouse to the client device

Outcome:
Device resprang in Safe Mode
Server disconnected from client
App icon displays "On" badge

Attached is the Debug2 log of the event.

Having the crashing issue as well on ios 7

Original comment by fsemina...@gmail.com on 10 Feb 2014 at 5:42

Server: Windows 64 bit v1.4.16
Client: iPad Mini Retina 7.0.6 with iSynergyClient v0.8.20-1

Client connects, mouse leaves screen and goes to the client.  Mouse not visible 
on iPad and keyboard not working.  However, I don't get a crash.  I have heard 
that you will likely get crashes with the v0.9-2.

I was trying to get this working with an iPad Air on iOs 7.0.4. As reported 
above, both the iSynergy client (0.9-2) app and the Synergy server app (running 
on Windows 7 32bit)  show that the mouse is connected. The pointer disappears 
on the edge of the server screen as expected but no pointer appears on the 
iPad. 

Unlike the others, I am not experiencing any crashes.

iSynergy uses MouseSupport. I'll update MouseSupport as part of the BTC Mouse & 
Trackpad update. It will then work as well or as bad as on iOS 6.

Excellent! Thank you all for your hard work...this really is an awesome piece 
of software. Look forward to trying it on ios

Original comment by Yasusi...@gmail.com on 5 Mar 2014 at 2:51

Is MouseSupport something that needs to be downloaded from a separate repo, or 
is that just the BTC Keyboard and Mouse support through BigBoss?

Original comment by Luv2teei...@gmail.com on 6 Mar 2014 at 6:29

isynergyclient now working with the updated mouse support

Original comment by Peter.Rh...@gmail.com on 24 Mar 2014 at 3:17

FYI, you can use isynergyclient over usb (iphone/ipad connected to PC by usb) 
with s2c over ssh using bitvise.  If anyone's interested I could do a writeup

I just wish isynergyclient was able to connect automatically, like the desktop 
client does.  

Is there a terminal command to initiate a connection request?  If not, could 
one be added?  I could make that work.

Original comment by Peter.Rh...@gmail.com on 24 Mar 2014 at 3:41

Or, a version of isynergy client that just attempts to connect (using main 
app's settings), and if fails just exits.  NO UI required.  I could make that 
work as well.

So the mouse now appears to be fully supported, but it is not recognizing the 
keyboard at all, along with there being a dead zone at the bottom of the phone 
just above the dock where the mouse will not go down any further.

Thanks again for all of your hard work on making this an awesome app.

It seems it's just not formatted for the taller iphone 5 screen. FullForce on 
Cydia will fix it but that's a bandaid. It needs taller screen support, 
keyboard support, a new iOS7 icon, and a CC Toggle. Who's up to the task? 

Original comment by florincd...@gmail.com on 26 Mar 2014 at 4:14

Mouse was working, but after installing BTC mouse, iSynergyClient no longer 
works, no mouse function at all.  I tried uninstalling BTC Mouse, but still 
synergy is broken.  Matthias: Please Help!

Original comment by Peter.Rh...@gmail.com on 26 Mar 2014 at 4:15

TheNorth has a version 9-2 with taller screen and keyboard support, repo:

Matthias is such a badass name. It's like calling upon a Viking lord to help 
you. 

Original comment by florincd...@gmail.com on 26 Mar 2014 at 4:18

OK, now its working again after INSTALLING BTC Mouse.  Sorry, false alarm, 
carry on, nothing to see here

Hallo,
i've installed synergyClient on my ipad air, version 7.0.6, and when i try to 
connect from my pc at the ipad get:
current status: connected
but mouse isn't visible..

I try to connect also from a mac, but  same thing, get this message: 
cursor may not be visible

I've (after readed this post) installed BTstack Mouse

Where is the problem?

Original comment by luca.wor...@gmail.com on 4 Apr 2014 at 12:34

Luca have you turned off encryption in the settings, if you don't, it won't 
work.

Original comment by xanderne...@hotmail.com on 14 Apr 2014 at 5:38

I'd like to point out another user experience that might be helpful.

I've been using isynergyclient_0.9-2_rotation+keyboard on an iPhone 4s (iOS 
6.1.2) for a while now and it works great

There have been a few times in the past where I've switched screens and the 
cursor gets stuck in the top left of the screen. Respringing, rebooting, 
restarting the server doesn't free the cursor for the corner. Only a full 
uninstall and reinstall have shown to be effective.

It's sort of a Kiss of Death for the app. Very strange how it happens out of 
the blue on a screen switch, and completely breaks the functionality.

For reference, I am running Synergy 1.4.17 x64 on Win 7, but it's happened on 
older versions as well
