I installed Vyrso and Faithlife with no problems, however I cannot get the Bible app to upgrade. When I download it from the link I am getting build 43.apk and after installing it I am still on version 1.1.3. I have the update channel set to beta, but it is not working. Am I missing something? Thanks!
Hi Ryan; I was experiencing the same issue last night at approx. 11:00PM EST. I attempted to download this morning at 7:00AM EST, and was successful in the upgrade. I am thinking that the forum notice of the upgrade was posted before the actual files were on the server. Blessings
Thanks Erwin, at 8:30 am EST I am still experiencing the issue. I live in Paraguay, so maybe that has something to so with it. I will just keep checking back throughout the day. Thanks!
Hi Ryan; Gabe has appropriately gave us an answer as to why the issue occurred. I have a feeling it was due to something like that. :-)
Share Button
I really like now being able to select and copy text. Question: Where is the "Share" button?
Using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 with Android 4.0.4.

I installed all of the english files on both my tab and my phone. My phone seems to be working fine, but my tab is having problems.When I install Vryso it keeps giving me build 31, even though it says it will install the new 2.0 version. When install the latest version of Bible/Faithlife it seems to work okay except it does not show my favorites.
I am using a LePan TC970 version 2.2
Thank you for any help.
I got it to work by copy the file from my phone to my nexus 7.[:D]
Downloading now to test it. Can't wait to test out and view highlights and notes.
Whenever I attempt to view a Bible section where I know I have highlights and notes the Bible text appears and then continues to load for a while but eventually kicks the Bible app back to the homepage. Attached are two logcat files. The earlier of the two is directly after app install/upgrade. After the first attempt I cleared data and cache and tried again and still had the same issue.

Using the Bible app on both my HTC Rezound running ICS and my HP Touch pad running CM9 I do not see any highlighting from the desktop sync.

John, Thanks for the logs they will be extremely helpful in resolving the issue. We will be sure to address it in the next beta release. I'd be curious to know if turning off notes (Click on the gear icon, Settings, Show notes) avoids the crash.
