This is a report and sharing of a problem I found regarding VegaStudio.
Problem
Neither the physical device nor the KVD are being detected.
Background
Just a few days ago, both the physical device and the KVD worked perfectly in the exact same environment,
but suddenly the problem of the physical and virtual device not being detected occurred. I was quite puzzled.
Temporary Solution
Revert VegaStudio to the previous version v0.22.3.
Since VegaStudio’s Auto Update is enabled in VSCode, it’s likely that it was updated to the latest version without my knowledge, which is probably why this problem suddenly occurred.
I think it’s best to address this problem as soon as possible after upgrading VegaStudio from v0.22.3 to v0.22.4.
Thank you for reporting this issue and for the detailed investigation - identifying that the regression started with the Vega Studio v0.22.4 auto-update is very helpful.
We are looking into this and will investigate the device detection changes between v0.22.3 and v0.22.4. In the meantime, could you please provide the following to help us reproduce and debug:
OS - Are you on macOS (Intel or Apple Silicon) or Ubuntu?
Vega CLI version - Output of vega --version
SDK version - Output of vega sdk version (or check in Vega Studio)
Physical device model - Fire TV Stick 4K Select?
Connection method - USB or TCP/IP?
Error output - What does vega device list return when the issue occurs? (any error message or just empty?)
VVD behavior - Does vega virtual-device start from the terminal also fail, or is it only Vega Studio’s UI that doesn’t detect it?
Workaround: Reverting Vega Studio to v0.22.3 resolves the issue. To prevent auto-updates in the meantime, you can disable auto-update for the extension in VS Code:
Extensions → Vega Studio → gear icon → Disable Auto Update
We will update you once we have more information on the v0.22.4 regression.
VVD behavior - Does vega virtual-device start from the terminal also fail, or is it only Vega Studio’s UI that doesn’t detect it?
It’s similar to number 6.
KVD starts up, but it doesn’t show up in DEVICES section.
One point to add:
Everything is working correctly with the commands,
for example application can be correctly installed too
by the command “vega device install-app --packagePath xx.vpkg”.
The current problem is that the physical device and KVD can not showing up in VegaStudio DEVICES section.
Hi @Ivy_Mahajan,
we are also facing the same issue today.
The physical device is not showing under the Vega devices list. but we are able to see the devices list in terminal for the command “vega exec vda devices”
Active SDK Version: 0.22.6150
Vega CLI Version: 1.2.18
We are actively investigating the issue, would you please provide the os information with the instruction below:
It would also be helpful to provide the extension log with the instruction posted by @Suresh above. Thank you!
OS Information
Please ssh into the device via kepler exec vda shelland copy the output from cat /etc/os-releaseinto the answer section below. Note, if you don’t have a simulator running or device attached kepler exec vda shell will respond with vda: no devices/emulators found
