/e/ version 0.19 published this morning

FP3, Like @graz said, “the clock keeps crashing every time when I opened it”.
Besides the clock-app there is also a problem with the file-manager.
When I try to delete a file in Downloads, the file manager also keeps crashing.

Can’t confirm on 0.19-q-20211027142973-dev-FP3. (Settings - About phone - Android version - /e/ version)
Clock as well as deleting files work for me.

Maybe a language problem

Do you know if (and when) “r” builds will also be upgraded to 0.19?
Redmi Note 7 Lavender R still on 0.18 this morning…
Perhaps a second stage of deployment?
Thank you very much!

Do you think it has to do with translation? I mean, does the app tell you something before crashing or does it simply crash? I remember a message appearing in the timer (?) while having Basque selected a version or two ago: ‘‘translation not found’’.

Yes, the R builds have yet to be tested.

Edit: I’ve just noticed that the Week 43 Dev & Test thread has been updated with an eta:

" Pl note: /e/ R v0.19 builds have not been released. They will be tested next week and released to user the week after that."

Thanks for your reply.
On my phone (pre-installed) I have the stable version.

Thank you very much for your indications.

Hi @huib43, I have noticed a difficulty to delete files in the past, particularly where they are large or might be in sync with my eCloud.

Please could you try to reboot your phone. Consider if your files are synced elsewhere and ensure you are online if so. With no other apps running delete one especially created small file as “test”. Does the app survive? Can you then escalate the test as if, in some way, the action of delete uses more resources than you might expect.

You are right. When I go from Dutch to English every thing works again. Thank you very much.

Hi @aibd , I will keep your remarks in mind. For now it seems that @kisman172 was right. I changed the language from Dutch to English and every thing works fine for this moment.
I hope that the developers will solve this language problem.
Thanks a lot.

Hi.
[Not related with the Dutch clock.]

I’m getting a laconic “installation error” message from Updater in my Z5 Compact. I tried to install e-0.19-q-20211027 and, today, the e-0.19-q-20211029, so I dont think its file integrity related.

I also tried to install it through TWRP but, unfortunately, I can’t use it since it can’t recognize my unlock pattern (version: 3.2.1-0).

Any suggestion before I wipe it all and start all over again?

Thanks.

Is it an option to temporarily do without any unlock code nor pattern? Or are you already locked out of your system?

I first disabled my lock screen pattern and tried again with the Updater app, but had the same error.
Then I rebooted to TWRP.
This time it asked me for a Pin, not a Pattern. I just clicked on “Cancel” button and installed e-19 from exported Zip package without problems.

Tanks for your reply!

I have the same problem and I am (and was before the update) using the default desk clock app always in italian. I didn’t imagine it can be realated to languages problems. I’ve also always experienced that “translation for seconds” not found issue.
Let’s hope for a fix as it it’s a default app from the system.

It crashes directly when opening the app. Before, it used to show the “no translation found” nessage, but after the updatr it directly crashes

I use “Amaze” app from F-Droid for file management, it works fine in case you need an alternative

It would be surprising if some missing translation strings caused that problem! However it has been reported changing language can be a fix.

If you were able to confirm that in a brief test, it would be good to log that problem, especially if it was found to be secondary to the translation issue.

Thanks for your suggestion. It is strange but changing from Dutch to English solves the clock and download problems. I hope that the developers find a solution. Again thanks for your message.

They would need to be told! :slight_smile: https://doc.e.foundation/support-topics/report-an-issue
