Question

Hi guys I’m running through this tutorial:

http://www.sencha.com/learn/a-sencha-touch-mvc-application-with-phonegap

and trying to get the code running on Android. I’m set up with Eclipse and targeting Android 2.3.3

I’ve downloaded the final code from Git but I keep getting the error (in LogCat):

02-01 14:59:08.709: E/Web Console(16659): Uncaught ReferenceError: device is not defined at file:///android_asset/www/app/app.js:8

The code in question is:

Ext.regApplication({
    name: 'app',
    launch: function() {
        this.launched = true;
        this.mainLaunch();
    },
    mainLaunch: function() {
        if (!device || !this.launched) {return;}
        this.views.viewport = new this.views.Viewport();
    }
});

I get the same error whether running on the emulator or a physical device. I’ve got Weinre set up but it didn’t give me any useful information, only stating
“error occured: [unknown filename]:[unknown lineno]: [unknown message]”

Same thing happened to me. Add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"></uses-permission> to AndroidManifest.xml and it should go away.
