forms upload

Dear kobo users,

Here a newbie question. I created a very short form to test the upload of the form on my mobile.

First, I created the short form. I saved it as a file. Then I downloaded and installed KoboCollect on my mobile (htc) and then I followed the instructions provided in the userguide by pasting the file in the SD card folder (forms).

As soon as the file in on that folder, the application stops working. Even when I delete the file, the application does not run anymore.

I would be glad to receive any suggestion on how to proceed as I would like to use use and promote the application on a relevant event on measuring and monitoring armed violence.

Thank you in advance and best regards,

Irene

Hi Irene

Wellcome to KOBO. The most probable reason is that your form must be having an issue with the way its been scripted and as such the phone u are using does not really tell you what the problem is with the form so it collapses KOBO. When you delete the form it (the phone) probably still registers problem and still collapses KOBO. I had similar problems when using some models of phones. However to circumvent this you may need to uninstall KOBO then manually delete the ODK folder. After that restart your phone and install KOBO afresh that should work. If your form has no copyright issues you can send and I look at it from my side then send you feedback.
