I’ve been having a rough time with the prototyper lately and wanted to see if anyone else is running into something similar—or better yet, has found a fix.
Here’s what’s happening: I input a prompt into the chat, and it takes quite a while to respond. Eventually, it starts working, but just a few seconds in, it suddenly freezes. After that, the input box shows a spinning refresh icon that never stops with this message “Reconnecting - Reload browser tab if this persists”. At that point, the whole VM becomes unresponsive, and I have to do a full reset to try again.
I’ve tried simplifying my prompts, thinking maybe that was the issue, but it doesn’t seem to matter. No matter what I input, it gets stuck and crashes. Right now, I’m completely blocked and can’t make any progress on my project.
If anyone has suggestions, workarounds, or even just similar experiences, I’d really appreciate hearing from you.
i am facing the same problem, i tried resetting the VM , even delete my chrome profile and sign in again but it shows reconnecting , i checked console logs and it says something like websocket error means it’s from firebase side
Same here. I’ve been struggling to make it work the whole day with no success. It’s frustating to see that after been working and dedicating a lot of hours in a project, I realized that Firebase Studio is in a very very early stage that can’t be used at all…
Bro Export the project “Zip and download” if something happens , you will have your project and later on you can upload the same project to firebase (maybe with different acc) and it will work the same
I’ve been experiencing the same issues during the last 24 hours. Mine went from a turbo charged Ai Machine to a casio calculator.
On one hand - the capabilities of this is incredible and it’ll only get better with time but on the flip side of that, the number of errors and issues I’ve ran into are starting to make me feel like my project will never see the light of day - despite being very functional in my test environment.
its because the long chat history with the gemini probably, i had the same issue with ChatGPT if the give an option to delete the chat it will solve the problem!
That workaround worked wonderfully!
It’s not a definitive solution since it’s a hassle to do this every time the error happens, but for getting back to development and unblocking yourself, it works like a charm. Thanks for sharing – it really saved my day!
Wonderful you safely worked around it. I’m still novice, never even used a Github repo before… so really hoping the Firebase team can get this resolved. Every execution stalls right now.
Hello friend, I have the same problem but I didn’t really understand how to solve it, please, could you explain it a bit more in detail? I thank you very much in advance!
