Xamarin iOS only crash physical iPhone when you open an app - xamarin

I'm facing a strange error. App only crashes on physical device. But iOS simulator does not. It working fine.
The strange thing is it crashes when you open an app and FinishedLaunching(UIApplication app, NSDictionary options) method does not call at all.
What possibilities might have this issue?

One of the third-party iOS library (nuget package) was configured to iOS-Simulator. not physical iOS.
After the package author released hot-fix, it resolved.

try to change the linker Behaviour use the SDK-Only
go to Xamarin.iOS solution select ios build choose linker behaviour and change it

Not able to turn on HealthKit capability

I'm trying to experiment with HealthKit on both iOS 9 and WatchOs 2.0, but when I try to turn on HealthKit in the project's Capabilities page, I get the following error message:
Link HealthKit.framework
The framework 'HealthKit.framework' was not found in the SDK for this
target.
The same happens for both the iOS App and the WatchKit App Extension.
I tried to manually find the framework in Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS.sdk/System/Library, but it's not there either.
I'm using XCode 7.0 Beta 4.
Any tips?
Thanks!
So, I excluded Xcode and re-downloaded it.
HealthKit was suddenly there again.
Go figures..

App only crashes in certain devices ios8

So I recently had my app rejected by Apple. This is what they said:
2.1: Apps that crash will be rejected
----- 2.1 -----
We found that your app crashed on iPad running iOS 8 and iPhone 5s running iOS 8, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
Your app crashed when we:
tapped on various menu items
If you have difficulty reproducing this issue, please try testing the workflow as described in Testing Workflow with Xcode's Archive feature.
I found it confusing why the app was only crashing on certain devices, especially the iPhone 5s. Since I don't personally own a 5s, I have been using the simulator and cannot recreate the crash. On the iPad retina simulator the app crashes when I press menu buttons and Xcode tells me the offending line is in the viewdidappear method of the view being segued FROM:
if( adBanner != nil )
{
adBanner.removeFromSuperview()
adBanner.delegate = nil
adBanner = nil
}
My questions are: How can I recreate these crashes on the iPhone 5s? How can I possibly fix this bug on the iPad or do I even need to? I assumed you could submit an app optimized to run on only certain iOS devices and that was determined by which devices you submitted screenshots for. Do I need this app to work for iPad or is there a way to just not publish it for iPad?
Mine was not also for ipad, but Apple still tested for that anyway.
I had the same issue. I was reproducing the issue on my ipad 2 when the project options is set to "link all assemblies" on my Xamarin project settings. The issue was not reproduced and the app on my ipad was working fine when I change options to only "link SDK assemblies only." This has been the reason with another app I published.
I'm going to try republishing the app again with that change in setting and hope for the best.
How can I recreate these crashes on the iPhone 5s
An iPhone 5c might reproduce the issue, but your best bet is to use an iPhone 5s. The simulator cannot possibly match behavior of the device when it comes to timing and memory characteristics.
You might be able to use guard malloc or NSZombies to find some issues related to memory mismanagement, so I suggest you try that out in the sim or on devices you own.
Do I need this app to work for iPad or is there a way to just not
publish it for iPad?
You can build an iPhone-only app that will be run in compatibility mode on an iPad, but there's no way to prevent someone from running your iPhone app on an iPad.

XCode finished running application on phone

I can't debug any application on my iPhone. XCode compiles the application, deploys it to iPhone, says it is running the app, and immediately I see the message "Finished running x.app on iDevice". Although the app crashes, it is copied to the phone. After this crash I can start the application on the phone without problems but can't seem to debug any project on the phone. No old projects, no new projects, everything seems to be broken.
There are lots of advices to solve this problem on SO but none of them helped me a bit.
I use XCode 4.6 on Mac OSX 10.8.2.
had the same problem when i changed the project name and the app name.
i've done several times reset to the simulator 'ios simulator' --> 'reset....'.
try it, also try to delete old app in device and simulator, do 'product' --> 'clean', and then try again.
it sounds silly but its working for me when i has the same issue.
Try changing the Version number in 'deployment target' in your App's target in XCode to something else.
Does it run in your Simulator?
Try running in some other device (some other device version,like 4S or 4)
Is the issue with iPad or iPhone or both?

IOS Simulator cannot find sdk and the simulated application quit errors

I have been having this Xcode problem for a couple of months where my iOS simulator stops working whenever i run any application on Xcode and says, "The simulated application quit." and "iOS Simulator could not find the SDK. The SDK may need to be reinstalled." I am running Xcode 4.3.3 and have iOS sdk 5.1 and everything updated but it happened on my previous version of Xcode also. I have tried reinstalling Xcode over 10 times now and have been posting this question for a while now. No one has been able to get a solution. I have even sent in a bug report to apple but i don't think they will respond. I have tried doing everything every other person that has this problem has been told to do in other threads. I'm honestly thinking about just buying a new mac and seeing if Xcode will work on that one or taking in my current one to get looked at by apple. So if anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads and make sure the "Target SDK" you have selected in your project is in fact installed under the Downloads windows. For me this magically was uninstalled. Once i installed the SDK that my app was using, all worked again
This worked for me: http://www.colinbowern.com/posts/the-simulated-application-quit
I just deleted the folder "6.1" under ~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator
The I just launched again the app and the simulator recreated correctly the 6.1 folder.
Resetting the simulator settings (iOS Simulator > Reset Contents and Settings) resolved this issue for me.
I had the same issue. For me suddenly all the installed simulators (4.3 through to 6.0) stopped working. I then went to Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads, and there I had the chance to update at least the 5.0 simulator. This is now working, yet I was not able to get the 4.3 or 5.1 or 6.0 to work.
I have personally experienced a weird thing with xcode regarding this issue. Sometimes the sdk is installed properly but it still gives this error. I have two classes, if I call first class from the app delegate then the ipad simulator works fine but when I call the second class then it gives the error that the sdk needs to be re-installed.
In my case when the error occured, I had two errors in the second class. When I corrected the errors after debugging, the ipad simulator started to work completely fine. This is quite weird but its not the problem with your sdk, the problem is somewhere in the code.
This just happened to me. I tried to launch with iPhone 5.1 Simulator, got the error "iOS Simulator could not find the SDK. The SDK may need to be reinstalled." I tried running iPad 5.1 Sim, which worked. I switched to non-retina iPad. Then I tried running iPhone 5.1 Simulator again, and it worked.

Can't run on device after installing iOS 4.2 and the 4.2 SDK

I installed iOS 4.2 on my 2nd-generation iPod Touch last week. I tried running my application on the device through Xcode, but it didn't work (because Xcode didn't yet support iOS 4). To solve that, I installed Xcode 3.2.5 and the iOS SDK 4.2. Now I can get the app to run in the iPhone/iPad Simulator just fine.
However, I can no longer select "Device" from the menu at the top of the screen. It's a choice, but when I try to click on it, it never actually gets a check mark.
Because of this, I can no longer run the app on my iPod. The other (related) problem is that I can't choose "Build and Archive" from the Build menu anymore because the target is not a device.
Why is this happening? Do I need to change some settings in my project, or something with my device itself?
EDIT: Upon closer investigation, it appears that I can't select anything but the iPhone Simulator 4.0. Maybe there's something wrong with the project file.
Check that the base SDK is set to Latest iOS (currently set to iOS 4.2) for your Xcode project and your target's product, then perform a rebuild and see if your iPod is recognized.
Also try visiting the Xcode Organizer and see if it's asking for anything from your iPod. Typically Xcode will want to collect some data from devices whose OS receive updates, so it can update itself and install your apps on the updated OS properly.
