Bug ID: 494625
Summary: Sharing URLs to phone only works if the app is in
foreground
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Android
OS: Android 14.x
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: muzi...@gmail.com
CC: andrew.g.r.hol...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I've experienced this bug days ago, for the first time, after the update to
v1.32.4
now using 1.32.5 I've performed multiple tests on various devices
Strangely this bugs affect kdeconnect on Android 14 but not same version,
configured with the same options/plugins, running on Android 8.1
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. if kdeconnect is in foreground close it or put the app in background
2. optionally you can check that smartphone is reachable with the terminal
command
kdeconnect-cli -d $device_id --ping
3. on a terminal share an url link with the command
kdeconnect-cli -d $device_id --share https://httpbin.org
OBSERVED RESULT
kdeconnect on Android 14 smartphone shows me a notification for the ping, but
not react on url shared
EXPECTED RESULT
shows ping notification, then
opening the url shared on default browser, maybe shows a notification about it
(see additional information)
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Debian 12
Kdeconnect on Plasma: 22.12.3
Kdeconnect on Android: 1.32.5
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
With the introduction of the feature to make a sharing pending until the device
is newly online I see also that kdeconnect starts notify me all links received.
Now with app in foreground I see the browser opening with my desired URL but I
didn't see any notifications about it. I don't know if it's related.
Also I discovered the bug #494336, who also affects the same plugin, do the
strange behaviour descripted on Android 14 but not on Android 8.1. I don't know
if it's related.
