Issue with BlueDV for Android
« on: April 28, 2021, 08:04:30 pm »
The TGIF help desk suggested I seek help on the community forums.  I could sure you the help of someone who has gotten this capability to work.  I tested it a few weeks ago on prime before it became the 'prime' server for TGIF.

I am using a DVStick 30 AMBE, AMBE Server on my Win10 PC, and BlueDV for Android.

I am unable to connect to TGIF.  I am able to connect to the AMBE Server according to a message within the Android app.  Trying to connect to any room fails.

The Help Desk suggested that I use the following for the following file, Documents\BlueDV\HBLink.txt:

#By David PA7LIM -
#Rename this file to HBLink.txt
#Select DMRPLUS in BlueDV setup and choose your HBLink master.
#Logicalname, ipaddress, password, port
#HBlink1, 123.123.123.123, passw0rd, 62031
#HBlink2, secret.mydomain.nl, passw11rd, 55555
#HBlink3, secret2.mydomain.nl, passw11rd, 55555
TGIF, tgif.network, xxxxxxx, 62031
FreeDMR, 87.117.229.173, passw0rd, 62031


Where xxxxxx  is the Hotspot Security Key

I am not using a hotspot, but I suspect that this unique value is computed based on my DMR ID and is required by prime.tgif.network

Under the legacy system, all worked fine.  Brandmeister works fine also.  So I believe it must be something unique to TGIF.

I am using prime.tgif.network and DMR+ in the settings for the Android app.

Any help will be most appreciated.  I really would like to get this working as it did on the legacy server for almost two years for me and the prime test server just two weeks ago.

In the HBLink.txt file, I was told by the help folks to add the line as shown.  For the fun off it, I tried adding  'prime.' before the 'tgif.network'.  This didn't work either.

Has anybody had luck with the Android connecting to TGIF prime?  If so, what was your method?

To me it is strange that this worked fine a couple of weeks ago on prime before the official switchover.

Thanks,
George
