Re: [PhoneGap] App Fails validation phonegap 2.7.0

[Shazron]

You must have an older version or it wasn't upgraded properly. There is absolutely no use of uniqueIdentifier in 2.7.0 and hasn't been for a while.

I created an ios  app with the latest phonegap release in the hope to avoid the UDID validation checks that have recently come into force.
However I'm still getting error "App are not permitted to access the UDID and must not use the uniqueIdentifier method of UIDevice" anyone
have any ideas on how to resolve this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks

i see the same problem

Even if I open the CordovaLib project alone and compile it.  Then i run 

grep -Rnis 'uniqueIdentifier' *

\Binary file libCordova.a matches

The version of this project is 2.7.0.  

Not sure what is going on here.

any ideas?

Well yes of course you will find 'uniqueIdentifier', it is still in UIKIt in the UIDevice class (I think the archive links to all symbols in the class if you use a class in a system framework). It shouldn't matter - in the final binary that you find in the .app folder, you won't find this symbol because we never use it (thus not included). If it is in there, it's from third-party code use, for sure. 

I know TestFlight 1.1 might have used it, and perhaps other Analytics libs or something.

ok well for me, it's AdMob, even after i upgraded to their latest version.  After removing admob, it is ok now.

I read online to do the grep in the binaries, and only phonegap was showing a result, I have no idea why.

Anyways, this is working now for me

thanks

It might be a false positive but the Application Uploader tool isn't allowing me to submit my app to the store because of this - I haven't been able to find an instance of uniqueIdentifier anywhere else

[Shyaam Jadhav]

Use the latest Application loader 2.9 may be and try to compile your app with pg3.0 atleast.

If this still does not help plz tell us what exact error that your application loader is giving.

The error message is -

 

Apps are not permitted to access the UDID and must not use the uniqueIdentifier method of UIDevice. Please update your apps and servers to associate users with the Vendor or Advertising identifiers introduced in iOS 6.

I am using Application Loader 2.9, Xcode 5.1 (5b130a) and PhoneGap 3.4.0-0.19.7
