1. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
Colin Holgate Sep 23, 2012 8:55 PM (in response to FLAdude)I see what you mean. Have you looked at any apps that have been updated in the last couple of days, that say they now support iPhone 5? Do any of those do the same strange thing?
It may need us to just have a black rectangle as the splash screen.

Varun Bhatia Sep 23, 2012 9:08 PM (in response to FLAdude)Support for the new launch screen is being added into the runtime. adding the new splash screen is the only way to convey that the app supports the new iPhone 5. We will keep you updated regarding the fix.

Varun Bhatia Sep 24, 2012 2:46 AM (in response to FLAdude)Could you try the following workaround and let us know whether it works.
Packaage the same image as Default@2x.png and Default-568h@2x.png and try running on both iphone5 and iphone4S and let us know if you still face any issues.

4. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
FLAdude Sep 24, 2012 4:00 AM (in response to Varun Bhatia)I gave that a try, Varun, and while it can remove the splash-screen-jumping on iPhone 5, it does it at the expense of making previous devices have a messed up, scrunched and distorted splash screen. It is quite critical for this to work so that people can begin submitting AIR-based apps and address the AIR iOS 6 breakage, any idea when an updated SDK might be available?...
Colin, I tried some apps from the App Store that support iPhone 5, their splash screens worked just fine with no mess ups. It seems to be specifically happening with AIR. Also, a 'black rectangle' sounds insuffecient for a splash screen, and just plain looks unprofessional.

5. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
Varun Bhatia Sep 24, 2012 4:04 AM (in response to FLAdude)The issue has been fixed internally and would be available in next prerelease. You can learn more about the next AIR mobile and desktop features by applying for our private prerelease program.

FLAdude Sep 24, 2012 4:17 AM (in response to Varun Bhatia)I applied for that program quite some time ago, but haven't heard anything back. Prelease is beta watermarked and is not allowed to be submitted to stores until the public release i believe anyways? Any idea when the private release will go public?

Mark.fromOP Sep 24, 2012 1:43 PM (in response to FLAdude)Wait so as I understand it we are not able to submit new apps or updates at the moment? This is a massive bummer. What if we ignore the splash screen all together and just leave it blank/black?
Planning on submitting tonight and don't want to get rejected.

8. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
Colin Holgate Sep 24, 2012 1:59 PM (in response to Mark.fromOP)It seems unlikely that Apple would expect all submitters to have bought iPhone 5 before its release date, and to have made their apps work with the new size. If you do want to go ahead and use the trick to use the extra space, then yes, having a black launch image might make sense. If you're ok with it being regular iPhone size, then just leave out that special default image, and the letterboxing should work ok.

9. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
Mark.fromOP Sep 24, 2012 2:04 PM (in response to Colin Holgate)Yeah and its nearly impossible to buy one now as well. I would like to take advanatage of the full iPhone5 screen, so I am trying your Default-568h@2x.png trick, but I have no iPhone 5 to test on, if anyone is interested in testing please let me know.

11. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
sleblang Sep 26, 2012 11:02 PM (in response to Varun Bhatia)So I just installed AIR 3.5 Beta and SDK for FlashBuilder 4.6. I dropped the splash screen images, Default-568h@2x.png, Default@2x.png, and Default.png in the root of the src folder. I then tested it on an iPhone 4S and while it loads the correct splash screen, Default@2x.png, there is an all white screen in between the time the splash screen disappears and the main application screen loads. It lasts for maybe 2 seconds - defintely noticeable. I am not sure if this previously occurred as I was using a dynamic splash screen based upon DPI, 320 or 160. I assumed that this new method would be an easier route to go since both the 4S and 5 have roughly the same DPI.
I don't have an iPhone 5 to test it on.
Thanks.

IgorKlochko Sep 27, 2012 3:27 PM (in response to Varun Bhatia)Hi!
I have also installed AIR 3.5 Beta SDK for FlashBuilder 4.6. And I have both Default@2x.png and Default-568h@2x.png images of resolution 640 x 1136. But I still face the same issue - iOS splashsceen displays correctly for a moment, and after that the application loads with iPhone 4 resolution, with two dark areas at the top and at the bottom of the screen. Tested on iPhone 5.
Please, give us some more advices about this.
Kind regards,
Igor

Mark.fromOP Sep 27, 2012 5:05 PM (in response to IgorKlochko)What resolution is your canvas set to? Also are you using auto scale or are you manually relocating your elements?

IgorKlochko Sep 28, 2012 2:02 AM (in response to Mark.fromOP)Mark, thank you for response!
I have Flex 4.6 application (now with AIR 3.5 Beta) with 320DPI, so scaling is on. Although it is mobile project, I use <s:Application /> as root tag to have different navigators for phones and tablets.

15. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
IgorKlochko Sep 28, 2012 4:59 AM (in response to IgorKlochko)Update.
I've just renamed my exported .ipa file to .zip and explored it's content. Now I see, that there are only 2 files in compiled package - Default.png and Default@2x.png, but Default-568h@2x.png is not here! It is definately present in Flash Builder's Flex Build Packaging -> Apple iOS -> Package Contents, but it's not included in final buid.
I will try to add the file Default-568h@2x.png manualy to the .zip, then I will rename it back to .ipa and try if it will work on iPhone 5.

Varun Bhatia Sep 28, 2012 5:05 AM (in response to IgorKlochko)You wont be able to use the ipa after unzipping it and repackaging it without codesigning. I suggest you to try packagaing from command line.

17. Re: Splash screen always messes up on iPhone 5. Must fix so I can submit to the App Store.
IgorKlochko Sep 28, 2012 5:25 AM (in response to Varun Bhatia)Yes, I alredy see it. Will give a command line a try...
Thank you for the tip.
Any suggestions why Flash Builder doesn't include the file?

IgorKlochko Sep 28, 2012 6:27 AM (in response to IgorKlochko)Update.
Recompliled with AIR 3.3 in Flash Builder, and file is included in package now, and the app shows fine on iPhone 5. So, the problem is with new AIR 3.5 Beta adt, I guess.

Could you please share the sample project where the splashscreen was not included while packaging using Flash Builder.
You can mail me at schannar@adobe.com

Could you please log it via bugbase.adobe.com, please share the bug number here for reference.
Request you to mention all the details and steps to reproduce, a set of sample files would help us investigate it further.

IgorKlochko Oct 5, 2012 4:35 AM (in response to Pahup)Hi!
I've changed the SDK's adt.jar file from this topic, and everything is fine now. So, I guess there is no need to add a bugreport.
Thank you for feedbacks!
