Install f.lux via Xcode?
-
@herf I have rebooted. Same result. No other apps running, no jailbreak or anything weird with the iPad, except no sim card.
I have about 2 hours to go until sunset, so will keep trying on this build through the changeover. In the morning, I will delete and recompile and report back.
-
@herf Further update: Widgets and Notifications swipe down ok on the black screen and the bottom control panel swipes up.
Not being a developer, I wonder if this is relevant:

Oh wow so it's not a color setting bug, but a UI one?
We must have a UI problem with the Xcode beta...?
-
Just got updated to 9.2 beta 3 and Xcode 7.2 beta (7C62) --
Not getting it to happen on an iPad mini 2 retina.Post any more details here.
thanks!

So I installed the app and overall it works great. I do have one preference issue that I want to point out. It's possible that it's a bug or I simply don't understand how it's supposed to work. It's 12:39 am for me and my phone is running at 1900K but the "at night" setting is 3400K. I don't find the 1900K setting very conducive to using my device so I tried to change it to a higher setting but the app won't allow it. It won't even go to the 3400K it's set at. The only option I have is to disable it temporarily. Can you guys fix it so that the night time settings are adhered to?
Followup: I just noticed that if I adjust the "when do you wake up" setting, the display hue changes to a different setting depending on what time I select. So how does the "when do you wake up" setting work with the "at night" setting/slider above? Am I missing something here?
-
Yep I even added this to the FAQ: https://justgetflux.com/sideload/ (at the bottom).
In the meantime just set "Dawn" and ignore the wake time feature until we make more UI for it...
-
@herf I downloaded the Xcode 7.2 beta 3 to build it for my 6S+ running 9.2 beta 3. When I tried to build it for my iPhone 5C it failed in a similar fashion so I switched over to 7.11 and the build worked fine.
-
@gbutts Can you post your Xcode version too?
-
@herf Xcode version 7.1.1 (7B1005). Updated today from App Store.
-
@herf So... I tried installing onto my iPhone 5S (16Gb, iOS 9.1 (13B143). Same issue as the older generation iPad.
In this case however, because of the Lightning connector I assume, I was able to capture the screen using Voila.
http://www.mediafire.com/watch/dq2bf3qb6kgfq5g/f.lux_black_screen_-_iPhone_5S.mov
I am not familiar with XCode, however (after capturing this video) I noticed under the 2nd menu 'Deployment Info' options to change the 'Deployment' Target', 'Devices' and 'Main Interface'. Your installation instructions don't mention these options but I thought it may help if I customised them for my phone.
I configured 'Deployment Target' to 9.1 (my iOS version) and 'Devices' to iPhone, reloaded and got the same black screen result. Setting 'Main Interface' to 'LaunchScreen' (the only option), made the app crash on opening. No splash screen or black screen.
I hope all this helps.

Just wondering, is there a reason you don't recommend an Archive then install the IPA?
-
I am amazed. The ability to install f.lux via Sideloading is really great.
I just tried installing it on my iPad an iPhone. iPad Air 1 works fine. Using my iPhone 5 I can confirm the black screen issue mentioned above. After trusting my dev profile an starting the app, the screen just turns black right after the splash screen. There is no dialog asking for location access or for sending notifications.
If you need more information or help just email me. I'm studying computer science in Germany (so I may translate the UI), but did not yet write write applications in Xcode. So I'm not that experienced in debugging software with Xcode ;-)
-
I also get the black screen when trying to install from Xcode. Running Xcode 7.1 build 7B91b and latest public iOS (9.1).
-
Hi. Thanks for the app. Works great on iOS9.1/iPhone 6S. Question though, why all the background modes (Voice over IP, fetch, location)?
-
Ran into the black screen after launching after installing on my iPad mini.
Rebooting device, force quitting did nothing.Cleaning project in Xcode and rebuilding seemed to resolve the issue.
-
Love the app and have been waiting for this since I stopped jailbreaking.
As some one who isn't keen on all the notifications, unlock requests etc. - would you consider (or is there a way) to use Flux to put the screen in night mode and leave it there until I turn it off?
I'd be willing to sacrifice the convenience of the automatic adjustments and just turn it on/off myself to avoid a bunch of notifications.
-
Doesn't work for me. Xcode displays an error message:
“Could not find Developer Disk Image“
-
@supercat yes a couple requests for this. We will try to reduce the number of notifications a lot.
Anyway - if you set wake time to "dawn" and day and night setting the same, it should suppress all notifications.
-
@rhysmorgan free accounts can't re-sign archives.
-
@chris048 this means your xcode is too old for your iOS version (I think).
-
Doing this on OS X 10.10.5 with XCode 7.1.1 results in "iPhone6 cannot run iflux. iflux does not have an architecture that iPhone 6 can execute." error.
Should I change a setting?
I had already set the target to "iPhone 6" before.
-
@hansooloo This is a Simulator, and you should select your actual device from the menu instead.
-
@atlauren yes we just notify you and you have to go rebuild.
-
Thanks herf, I installed the beta of Xcode and it was built successfully.
Now however, I can't run the app (untrusted developer).
I don't get prompted to open Settings > General > Profile at all.
"Your device management settings do not allow using apps from… on this iPhone. You can allow using these apps in Settings.“
I can only cancel this notification though.
-
@chris048 The reason for the “Could not find Developer Disk Image“ is because the Xcode version you are using doesn't contain the information for the platform that's on your target device. I had this issue when I tried to load it to my 6S+ running 9.2 beta 3.

Yes, thank you. I installed the Xcode beta and that worked :)
Now I just can't get the security profile to show up
-
Same issue as @chris048
My developer profile is missing even when the icon is showing up on my phone, so running the app will not work.
Normally, you should be able to go to Settings > General > Profiles and trust the profile, but my profile isn't listed there.Could it be that iOS 9.2 Beta 3 (13C5060d) broke it?
[EDIT] Actually I had Beta 2 when I thought I had Beta 3. So that's likely the issue. As a user below said, update to Beta 3 and try again.

Thank you!!
Updating to the 3rd beta worked.On to the next issue. Only seing a black screen after launching the app now :(
-
@herf thx much. Will try that.
-
ohne thing about the black screen after starting: go to "influx" > "general" > "deployment info" and change the deployment target (maybe to 9.1). worked with my iPhone 5.
-
Product> Clean seemed to solve the black screen issue for most people.
The behaviour on my iPhone 6 is a bit strange still- in the evening when the colour temperature is warm, it will occasionally 'pulse' cold for a couple of seconds. Not seen this behaviour on my iPad 3.

Why not download f.lux installation
-
@lorna Why not download f.lux?

-
Waking up this thread again.. as it is related.
I am able to sideload the f.lux app on el capitan using xcode 7.2 on my iphone 5 running ios 8.4.1. but the third step says "When you first run, you’ll be prompted to open Settings > General > Profile on your device, and trust your developer account" I don't find this setting on my phone. There's no "profile" alternative under General.
Should I care about it? the app still works. Does it affect future pushed out updates or anything?
-
@Martin-Karlberg It's called "Device Management" in iOS 9.2. You should see a listing for your personal account after you've tried (and failed) to run the app; you can then hit "Trust" on the screen that comes up when you click your developer ID.
-
I am trying to side load using XCODE 6.4 on Yoesmite but when I get to the 4th step in the instructions from the f.lux website where it says "In the same place, under Identity > Team, select your iCloud account or Developer profile" It will not allow me to choose my iCloud account (I have added it as per the previous step in the directions). In order to side load do I need to have a developer account?
Thank you very much for all and any help!
-
@iasunder It's not necessary to have a developer account to use Apple's "free provisioning". It is necessary to have Xcode 7.
-
Thank you Elhem! I will give that a shot.
