Bug ID: 493796
Summary: KDE Connect Android App Crashes on Android 8
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Android
OS: Android 8.x
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: rov...@quelorant.com
CC: andrew.g.r.hol...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Starting with an update within the past month, probably 1.32.2, the KDE Connect
Android app now crashes on open on Android 8.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open KDE Connect.
2. If it doesn't immediately crash, pull down to refresh the list of connected
devices.
OBSERVED RESULT
Crash occurs.
EXPECTED RESULT
KDE Connect can be used.
This is a pair of rooted Moto e5 Play phones with Android 8 on them. Until
recently, KDE Connect worked without issue. It continues to run in the
background, apparently, as the notification remains in the notification bar.
If it's connected to my computer, it'll even send and receive files, which is
all I use KDE Connect for. But as soon as I try to open the app to, say,
refresh it so it connects to my system if it didn't automatically pick it up,
it instantly crashes. Reopening also crashes unless I immediately press the
Home button to prevent it from showing me anything in the UI, and even that
only works sometimes. I don't know how to get a trace out of Android or I
would provide it. On the assumption it was related to the network connection,
I put it in Airplane Mode; it still crashes. Managed to somehow get into the
Plugin settings and was able to disable Filesystem Expose, which I noted in the
changelog for 1.32.2 had been removed, and it still crashes.
Glad to provide more info if I can.
