Widget never updates #1412

Closed spatnynick closed 2 months ago

spatnynick commented 2 months ago

Hi, nice app, unfortunatelly the widget never updates automatically on my device. I have to tap the widgets title, it opens the app and widget is then also updated.

DAVx5 Sync set to 2 hours, with OpenTasks the problem didn't occur. Battery optimizations disabled,

Hi @spatnynick , thanks and sorry for the late reply, I'll have a look at it. Basically the widget should update itself, this is a functionality provided by the library. Additionally the widget update is triggered on sync. Are you working mainly in the widget and hardly ever open the app? (Using only synchronized entries from a server)

Hi Patrick, exactly, I maintain the tasks on my computer and want to have the widget on handy mainly as a reminder, so I trigger jtxBoard app only rarely. The tasks are synced every 30 min with DAVx5 - but this sync doesn't trigger widget update in my case... otherwise it would be sufficient br Bohuslav

Thanks @spatnynick . To further narrow this down: When you open the app, does it at least work for some time or does the widget just never udpate?

patrickunterwegs commented 2 months ago

Hi @spatnynick ! I have made an upgrade of the widget library and I'll add it to the upcoming beta. As they have made a few improvements, I hope they also made some improvements on the refresh-mechanisms. The code basically looks good, the widget should always get refreshed when an entry gets changed by the sync. However, I have also seen in the emulator that things get stuck for no reason sometimes (which was also hard to reproduce). So I hope that this new widget library version will fix a few things. I'll close this ticket here. It would be great if you could observe this issue further once you have the new version and give some feedback!

Hi Patrick, thanks a lot! I would like to test it, unfortunatelly I don't know how to compile it.. I need to install sdk und gradle, right? or could you possibly compile the apk for me?

Hey @spatnynick , sure, no worries, I have just uploaded a new beta: https://github.com/TechbeeAT/jtxBoard/releases/tag/v2.7.9-beta01 There you can find the apk to download and install. You could also use tools like Obtainium if you would like to take more apk-files from the developers repository in the future.

And a hint: if you really want to compile a version, the easiest way is to install Android studio and connect a device. But if you're not familiar with that, I'd recommend to just stick with the apks from Github ;-)

Anyhow, it would be great if you could have a look and test a bit!
