Update to 1.0.524 and Crash on saving coordinates

Support - Classic
1

I have several classic projects and it is always the same:
After update of Play Store version the projects crashes after trying to store a coordinate on a position of map control. Saving with GPS coordinates has the same problem.

PS: The purple background color of Android status in header is not nice. If I set “Full screen”, some buttom elements are not seen fully.

CT Version 3.533 and 3.5.34 too
App Version 1.0.524

I’m sorry to tell, Justin, but now the situation is changed, and I do not know why.

I have 16 projects on my smartphone, and before I wrote that issue, all of them were crashed after trying to save. It was permanently happened after update the Google Play store version. Crash means that the CT application was closed totally. When I reopened, it stands on the save dialogue and crash performed again. Three of the projects were currently in use and were working before the update.

One of them I published again after Update the CT desktop version. The crash was also happened after. Also after restarting the device.

But now … behavior is changed:
15 of the 16 projects (inclusive 3 CT online test projects) are working fine now, and I can save sightings with GPS or Map coordinates.

Only one of them crashes like before. I published it again with current CT Desktop version and it crashes again. Then I switched off the device and restarted it again. And before starting the difficult project, I’ve reset State and Data.

Result: Now this works too!

My guess is, that the need of memory inside the device was increased after update and if this is not enough … it crashes? I don’t know. What more can I do?

Super weird. The new version may take more memory, but that is unlikely to be the root cause. Hopefully once the new build comes out tomorrow you will be able to reproduce it easily - then we can fix it for good.

The latest build will have a 115% zoom factor.

  1. Update to 1.0.527 → One of the working projects from before shows the same mystical issue: Save with GPS and crash. Some other projects are working fine (not all 16 were checked).
  2. Switch off and restart device → no change in behavior
  3. Reset project with state and data → now it works!

When you get a consistent repro, please send me a bug report along with the steps you follow. Hopefully we can this figured out once and for all.

Difficult Justin, I’ve observed that one or two of my 16 projects get the issue after update, but not the same project, different. But: What definitely helps is to reset this projects (State and data) and they are running fine, after.

By the way: Update to 1.0.529 and no project (of my 16 projects) got a problem with crash at saving coordinates.

One of my projects got some little changes. I published it. And the update was shown. If I push “Update” (from the list or in the project dialog) 1st time it breaks directly after push and I see the project list. 2nd time it works.

The only change in 529 is the addition of FTP support, which was broken.

So the bug is still there, just hidden for now.
