Cannot switch to stream after displaying tags #198

Closed oe1rsa closed 6 years ago

oe1rsa commented 6 years ago

General information

Description

After opening (starting the app) the stream is displayed. Using the "hamburger" menue, opening e.g. tags displays tags. Again using the "hamburger" cannot switch to stream, profile, activities.

Hi those are the 2 things that are probably most used in the app, which I use a lot too. Nobody has reported that yet, and did not occur here on any device. Means - no logs, nothing can be fixed.

vanitasvitae commented 6 years ago

Just to make sure: have you tried pressing the back-button?

oe1rsa commented 6 years ago

Ok, I have verified the behaviour with a fresh install on a second device: Samsung Galaxy.

The reason why I did not send a log is, that I never did this before. From glancing over the instructions I got the impression I would need to install some development environment on my laptop PC. No? I will look into it and come back if I am succesful.

Ok, sorry pressed the wrong button. Reopened.

oe1rsa commented 6 years ago

Yes, the back button takes me back through a sequence of white screens until I am asked if I want to stop the app. Btw. the behaviour feels like it is not communicating with the network, because normally I see a small green progress bar on top, which is missing after the "white screens" have been triggered.

Log

Log created with

pidcat com.github.dfa.diaspora_android > oe1rsa.log

I first killed the app from system settings and then 1) started -> stream visible 2) switched to tags -> tags visible 3) switched to stream -> white screen 4) used the back button -> tags visible 5) used the back button twice -> two white screens 6) prompted to end -> pressed ok

Hmm, as already has been noted: I am seemingly the only one experiencing the "bug". So what is different for me: I do not use google play store and I have not activated google play services. Could that be the cause of the problems?

vanitasvitae commented 6 years ago

Very unlikely. Dandelion was designed with such a setup in mind.

oe1rsa commented 6 years ago

Is there any useful information in the log file? I mean there are some indications of errors, but since I am not skilled in Android development they do not make much sense for me.

vanitasvitae commented 6 years ago

I cannot spot any helpful errors in there unfortunately :(

gsantner commented 6 years ago

me neither

gsantner commented 6 years ago

I think this is again related to the over 2 years old android + supportlibrary bug that is still not fixed.....

Cool, works now without problems! Thank you for fixing although there were not many having the issue!
