Hi all, A number of you have encountered a bug where the Spark Core will not hold a persistent connection to the Cloud, and does not successfully attempt to re-connect to the Cloud. Here are a few threads on the topic: [image] Dropping the connection to spark cloud I have connected up b…

The latest commit on core-firmware’s master branch should fix the above mentioned issue: Important Bug fix - Run Set_NetApp_Timeout() on Core startup to resolve reconnection issue committed 12:38PM - 10 Jan 14 UTC (UTC) …

Very very promising! My core runs the default application now for over 1.5 hours (still running and perfectly replying to the iOS-App) instead of about 10 minutes! Quite happy, Frido.

@Frido Did you flash your core manually or through the web IDE? I was under the impression that the code pushed out over the cloud comes from the compile-server2 branch, which does not yet have this fix.

pulled from git and compiled manually

when can we expect this to be implemented in the cores with a flash of the software from the cloud?

I’m just checking for a “go ahead” to make sure the latest master is good on the three firmware repos, and then we can fold those updates into the compile server branch. :slight_smile:

When this happens, should we see the compile-server2 branch merge with another branch? ( https://github.com/spark/core-firmware/network ). I’m wondering because I uploaded a sketch and it took a long time to update with a different sequence of lights than I was accustomed to (I was assuming it was b…

I can confirm that these changes do not fix CFOD.

Any updates on this issue? I have 130 dollars worth of steaks planed to go into my Spark controlled Sousvide on Tuesday and would hate to have my Core die halfway through the cook session.
