Hello! What type of Terminal readers are you discovering?

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:15 PM

#

M2

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:15 PM

#

Ah, those should have a battery level there. Let me check...

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:16 PM

#

Thank you

#

Because of that, we are always getting the default value

#

#

Now, it seems to be happening for iOS too

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:17 PM

#

What version of the Terminal Android SDK are you using?

#

Looks like this was an issue previously, but it seems like it's been fixed in more recent versions: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-terminal-android/issues/202

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:17 PM

#

Seems like it was fixed on 2.7.0

#

#

But we are still seeing the same issue

#

Maybe we need to update the reader?

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:21 PM

#

Possibly. The reader should automatically update when connected.

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:21 PM

#

Don't we have to trigger that programmatically?

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:22 PM

#

No, not since version 2.0.0: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-terminal-android/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#bluetooth-reader-updates

#

After the reader is connected are you able to get the battery level, or does it still not work?

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:24 PM

#

Still not work

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:25 PM

#

Oh, interesting. I just found an internal to-do to update the docs to make it more clear that the battery level during discovery is expected to be zero, but that it would work after being connected.

#

But it doesn't work even after being connected? You're still getting 0? Or null?

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:30 PM

#

Interesting

#

ok

#

let me triple check on my side

#

I will need to step away for a while

cobalt siren Mar 2, 2023, 7:34 PM

#

Okay, let us know what you find when you get back!

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:34 PM

#

Thank you!!!

thorn crow Mar 2, 2023, 7:53 PM

#

@cobalt siren Yes. It looks like we do get the battery level once it connects.
