This logfile contains information about what the application was doing before it crashed.</p><p>These log files are stored on your computer, and are copied across everytime you sync your iPhone. To find the log files do the following;</p><p>1) Sync your iPhone</p><p>2) Browse to the following folders. Note that YOUR_DEVICE will be the name if your iPhone as shown in iTunes.</p><p><b>Mac OS X :</b> /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/YOUR_DEVICE/</p><p><b>Windows XP:</b> C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Apple computer\Logs\CrashReporter\YOUR_DEVICE\</p><p><b>Windows Vista:</b> C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Apple computer\Logs\CrashReporter\MobileDevice\YOUR_DEVICE\</p><p>3) Each log file will begin with the name of the application.

Unfortunately Apple made this process quite complicated. Here's a how to from the view of a customer: <div><br /></div><div><b>1. Find your iPhone Device ID (UDID)</b></div><div>Every iPhone has a unique device id and to install an Ad Hoc build you need to first send this ID to the developer. You find your device id in iTunes (when your device is connected):</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="https://sonico.s3.amazonaws.com/images/itunes-serial-number.jpg" alt="iTunes serial number" /><br /><br /><img src="https://sonico.s3.amazonaws.com/images/itunes-udid-number.jpg" alt="iTunes udid number" /><br /><br /><img src="https://sonico.s3.amazonaws.com/images/copy-udid.jpg" alt="iTunes copy udid number" /><br /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div><b>2. Install the Ad Hoc build</b></div><div>Once you got the Ad Hoc build from the developer you need to drag &amp; drop the *.app and the *.mobileprovision file into the iTunes Mediathek. This should work on both Mac &amp; Windows.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /><img src="https://sonico.s3.amazonaws.com/images/install-ad-hoc.jpg" alt="iTunes ad hoc installation" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Sync your iPhone/iPad now</b></div><div>If you get any error message then please note the error code and send it back to the developer.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. Done</b></div><div>You should now find the app on your device !</div></div>Mon, 12 Apr 2010 13:45:27 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/52825332/How-To-iPhone-iPad-Ad-Hoc-Distributionurn:www-soup-io:1:52825332regular The future of content consumption ? <p><a href="http://gigaom.com/2010/04/02/unboxed-the-ipad/"><img alt="6934_cbd6_400" height="266" src="http://asset.soup.io/asset/0765/6934_cbd6_400.jpeg" width="400" /></a></p> <p>The future of content consumption ?</p>Sat, 03 Apr 2010 12:24:00 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/51619009/The-future-of-content-consumptionurn:www-soup-io:1:51619009image (Image) <p><a href="http://gigaom.com/2010/03/18/the-mobile-os-market/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+OmMalik+%28GigaOM%29"><img alt="4209_274a_400" height="712" src="http://asset.soup.io/asset/0739/4209_274a_400.jpeg" width="400" /></a></p> <p></p>Thu, 18 Mar 2010 08:46:48 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/49181736/Imageurn:www-soup-io:1:49181736image iPad User Interface thoughts <p><a href="http://camerondaigle.com/v1/articles/podcamp_nashville_2010_presentation/"><img alt="7032_3b01_400" height="300" src="http://asset.soup.io/asset/0724/7032_3b01_400.jpeg" width="400" /></a></p> <p>iPad User Interface thoughts</p>Tue, 09 Mar 2010 09:28:01 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/47848692/iPad-User-Interface-thoughtsurn:www-soup-io:1:47848692image "We are the most focused company that I know of or have read of or have any kn..." <p>"We are the most focused company that I know of or have read of or have any knowledge of.

One example is our <a href="http://www.itranslate.cc">iTranslate</a> app. <div><br /></div><div>On of our major goals for iTranslate is to keep the app footprint as small as possible. We have so many daily downloads that it's unthinkable for us to go over the 10 MB limit. </div><div><br /></div><div>For the Text-To-Speech feature in iTranslate we had to implement a rather bloated client side library. Of course we could have done everything with server APIs, but we think this does not make for a good user experience.</div><div><br /></div><div>To keep the app footprint small, we decided to implement the core TTS library in the app and download the files for the voices only after a user buys a voice (one voice has about 35 MB).</div><div><br /></div><div>After a lot of optimizing we ended up with 9.1 MB app size. Acutally it's 4.5 MB, but Apple blows up our app size to 9.1 MB with their DRM.</div><div><br /></div><div>The problem is that we needed to make some compromises. For example we decided to not support the Chinese TTS voice.</div><div><br /></div><div>With the new 20 MB limit, we have more than enough additional bytes to implement some cool new features.</div>Tue, 23 Feb 2010 14:39:12 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/46103183/Apple-raises-3G-download-limit-for-iPhoneurn:www-soup-io:1:46103183regular (Video) <object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/T0D4avXwMmM" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/T0D4avXwMmM" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="425" /></object>Fri, 19 Feb 2010 20:07:23 GMThttp://blog.sonicomobile.com/post/45607759/Videourn:www-soup-io:1:45607759video We are the Winner...
