OK Hossein well done, you are obviously a clever guy. So I have managed to download the (free)server and have that running and also have the demo (http://ai-hossein.appspot.com/#5679874417098752) running. My immediate issue is that I don’t have the v2.17 companion app which seems to be required. I have loaded the apk in the download root but that does not appear to be the correct one. Could you advise please.
Thanks, Mike

Hi,
When I try to run the emulator it gives the following error:
‘The aiStarter helper does not appear to be running’.
I have downloaded the aiStrater for the MIT website and ran it but the same error occurs. Is this required?
What am I missing? Or what do I need to do to get the emulator running?
M. Hossein Amerkashi

Please use WiFi to connect to your device.
Make sure you have installed the companion that is in the root folder

Hi,
I have difficulties to get the AI2 Companion to work. First I installed the version that came with the AI2LiveComplete download (v2.11ai2). That version wants to upgrade to v2.15ai2. Installation of v2.15a2zx1 (downloaded from the Play Store) gives me the error message “The Companion you are using is not compatible with this version of AI2. This Version of App Inventor wants Companion version2.15ai2”
How do I get this to work?
M. Hossein Amerkashi
February 25, 2014 at 5:04 pm
You have to use the companion for Ai2LiveComplete.
In the unzipped folder, you’ll see a .apk. Install that onto your device

Great! It works for selecting single field. If I want to select two fields with data containing spaces, will it work?
M. Hossein Amerkashi
January 28, 2014 at 7:47 am
Experiment with it.
It works for selecting multiple n number of columns

Hi, thanks… ai2livecomplete is a great job.
But I’ve difficulties connecting Ai Companion on Wifi (but offline / without connecting the internet). I mean that I create WIFI LAN without connecting the internet. It’s freezing.
When I connect into the internet, it’s working.
Thank you very much.

Did you use the companion that is in the root folder of Ai2LiveComplete?

Hi,;
Based on what I am reading in the various postings you have 3 offerings
1. Free Limited version of the AI2Complete for download at sourceforge (does not include ADmob, SQLite…etc)
2. Full version for download which INCLUDES ADmob, SQLite…etc.
– This version can be purchased.
– Entitles you to updates?
– Can compile the apps with no restrictions.
– We must contact you to purchase this version, correct?
3. Hosted FULL version of AI2Complete which has a one time fee + ongoing monthly fee.
Is this correct?
M. Hossein Amerkashi
January 18, 2014 at 2:41 pm
Hi,
The free offline version DOES include SQLite and as you mentioned, it can be downloaded from sourceforge here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ailivecomplete/
For full version with all the new components / enhancements, see HERE. The reason for the monthly is because of the hosting / Google cost. You can read more about it at the end of link above.
