iPhone OS 4.1 Crash and Radar Fix on the Way!!
Well, we’re finally getting a fix implemented for the crash problem caused by OSx 4.1.
The crash problem in a nutshell: Normally, when you first open up WeatherFix (and certain other apps, too, as you may have noticed), the app looks for the unique device identifier first (to confirm it’s your device that it’s downloaded to), and if it sees the right number it opens up. If it can’t find the identifier, however, the app shuts down. Well, Apple changed the identifier protocol with the OS 4.1 firmware update, so when you try to open WeatherFix, it looks for your device identifier, can’t find it (it’s looking for the identifier based on the old protocol), and consequently shuts down.
So, we’re implementing a fix and hope to have the new version on the App Store in the next week or two, depending on how long it takes Apple to review and approve the update. The fix should also take care of the radar screen problem when you try to zoom in or move the map on the radar display. This issue has to do with the way the embedded Google maps API reverse geo-codes the radar overlay, which completely changed in OS 4.0.
We apologize it’s taken us this long to get this done, but the fix(es) is (are) now finally on the way.
