You're right - setting ROS_IP and ROS_HOSTNAME in .bashrc works, per the instructions in the turtlebot wiki. Still not very stable, sometimes it connects, sometimes on retry, sometimes on app restart.

2013-12-13 03:13:01 -0500 asked a question Android / Rocon_app_manager pairing error

When trying to pair an Android device with the Rocon_app_manager as per [1], the 'Robot Remocon' Android app does find the robot when pressing 'Add a robot > Scan the local network', but when pressing 'select' it tries to connect but displays an error:

org.ros.exception.RosRuntimeException: timed out waiting for a gateway_info publication

I tried on different networks (university-wide and at home through a local router) and two different pc's and android devices. There is at least some communication as there's a different error when the rocon_app_platform hasn't been started on the pc.

I tried to look up where this error originates but I am quite hopeless. Does anyone have an idea of how to solve this?
