Getting lots of pop-up with "Create a widget and allow access?"

etanot commented 4 years ago

General Information

OpenLauncher Version: 0.7.2
Android Version: 7.1.1
Custom ROM: None
Install Source: F-Droid

Description

From few days, after installing and uninstalling of apps, I'm getting a series of pop-up with "Create a widget and allow access?" message,

even after checking Always allow OpenLauncher to create widgets and access their data box and then Create, I'm still getting these pop-up (and lots of, at least 3 or 4 times).

Steps to reproduce

Install an app from F-Droid app.
After installation, probably you'll get a series of pop-up with Create a widget and allow access? message; check "Always allow OpenLauncher to create widgets and access their data" and then click create.
Create a shortcut icon of newly installed apps on home screen.
Now, uninstall the app.

Probably this time also you'll get series of pop-up.

Expected behavior

Remember answer provided by user.

Actual behavior

After (un)installation, every time getting series of pop-up.

~PS: Can anybody else reproduce this behavior?~

I am experiencing exactly the same behavior. With each new installation or update (no matter if via Fdroid or Aurora Store) receiving multiple very annoying pop-ups. For some Apps (e.g. Geocaching) Pop-ups even occur very often during normal execution (always jumping back to home screen and putting app into background)

Problem started around March 10th without any (aware/active) change of involved components.

Can any one find and fix this issue ?

I'm also getting this issue on my device whenever apps are installed/uninstalled/updated.

It takes focus away from whatever is currently being viewed, and the only way to reliably clear the multiple notifications is via pressing the android home button.

Finally found this problem cause. Hope any one fix this. https://github.com/OpenLauncherTeam/openlauncher/blob/master/app/src/main/java/com/benny/openlauncher/viewutil/ItemViewFactory.java

This line: LOG.error("Unable to bind app widget id: {} ", cn); Intent intent = new Intent(AppWidgetManager.ACTION_APPWIDGET_BIND); intent.putExtra(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID, appWidgetId); intent.putExtra(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_PROVIDER, cn); HomeActivity._launcher.startActivityForResult(intent, HomeActivity.REQUEST_PICK_APPWIDGET); return null; Remove other condition to reproduce this issue. I guess some user go to this condition. So the dialog show again and again

Same problem, except it happens daily, dozens of times, after instaling new apps or not:

Open Launcher Version: 0.7.3
Android Version: 9
Custom ROM: None (standard FP3)
Install Source: F-Droid

Steps to reproduce systematicaly:

Open the apps list and press home button: the popup appears
Long press home screen -> page layout view, then press home button: the popup appears
actualy, just pressing the home button does it.

Rebooting the phone clearled most of the problem (only 1 popup while pressing home button and testing steps above 12 times), though the home button now no longer returns to the main screen from other screens.

Please note : most of the time, popup appears on top of all icons. A few times though, it appears behind desktop icons. Screenshot_20200616-172423 Screenshot_20200617-090303

I've got the same issue and it came right after I uninstalled some apps. One of them had a widget and I wonder if uninstalling it without the prior removal of the widget could be the culprit

Please make & test the fix, and make a pull request.

gsantner commented 3 years ago

Closing in favor of the Meta issue for Widgets #645 . Please have all discussion at that issue, including crashes, feature requests and more. I also lock this issue as there is nobody that wants to continue to reply on ~100+ mostly duplicate issues.

Currently nobody is working on OpenLauncher Widgets code, so why YOU who reads this message, not steps up? :wink:
