I have started having a problem when trying to launch my ExplorOz traveller program on my Digoptions radio, I had in the past been able to launch the program but after the latest upgrade the unit gives me an "Application Error - The connection to the server was unsuccessful. (https://localhost/index.html)".
I can't recall making any changes and am lost on what the issue could be and hope that someone might be able to shed some light.
Thanking you in advance as I didn't want to burden the help desk.

.
Why not"burden the help desk' Walter, where you have access to the program developer, rather than burden the unqualified members of the forum? That's what the Desk is provided for after all.
Cheers

Morning Alan

Just do what I do, ignore what I’m not interested in, let alone respond to something that I’m not interested in.

With the format of this forum people can post what the like. Well within reason. Yes I understand somethings could (but don’t have to be) posted elsewhere. Once again if it doesn’t interest anyone ignore it.

There is one thing that annoys me a bit though, it’s when people get upset & sometimes personal because someone has a different opinion, or challenges there post. But it does make for interesting reading LOL.

Did someone say battery?

Regards

TrevorDavid

This symptom and error message indicates you have quite an old device but the fix is simply to close the app and open again.

Hi Michelle,

Thank you for your reply, not sure what is considered old, purchased about 3 years ago and based on android 9, was working previously.
I have closed the app several times by having to close the screen as no other functions are available, cannot go back to close the app.
Any other suggestions please.

Walter - the issue sounds like you are not closing the app. You should probably Google "how to close apps on Android 9". Basically, just like on any phone or tablet, you need to locate the all apps view then swipe the app away. If you just close the screen on the headunit you are not closing the app - so its not getting the reboot which should fix your issue.

Not sure if you are aware, but we are away until Sept and I can only provide help when online (via the Help Desk, plus I do a quick check of the Forum and Facebook Group hence I saw your post) but this is only possible periodically - so far only once every 2 weeks as the nature of our research trip is remote.

Have you re started the device as well or just the app?

Hi William,

Haven't had a chance to read up on Michelle's suggestion and will see what google has to say on closing apps.
To answer your question, yes have turned off the unit and the car several times to see if a reboot would solve the issue.
Many Thanks for your follow up.
Walter

I have experienced the same problem. I have an idoing android 10 head unit. Worked perfectly prior to updating to latest version of ExplorOz.
Now it simply will not load.
After first updating it worked about 4 times, now will not load. Yes I have closed ALL open apps. I notice that it also takes far longer to load on my Android Samsung phone. Is there anyway to rollback to the previous version? Or is there another fix short of replacing the headunit which is only about a year old?
