i am having the same problem with my sparkfun third party arduino uno replicated board. my board was communicating a few days ago and then suddenly i got the same error and have been for several days, pretty disappointed that im paying for an app and its not delivering any type of functionality what so ever..... even if it is .99 cents a month...

note: i went out and bought a new sparkfun board thinking perhaps i fried mine....
however, im still having the same issue. maybe, i ought to get the "official board" and give that a go?
