Sometimes, after an OTA update it is enough to clean the cache and user data of some applications to make them work again.

It was an update to the OS on my FP4 today. I tried uninstalling reinstalling and clearing storage and cache but still no luck.

Just tried a fresh install of the Nationwide app from App Lounge on v1.8-s.

The “Loading” screen is displayed and never completes

Hi everybody,

Impossible to use N26 due to failed synchronisation.

Has somebody a solution ?

Thank you in advance.

153

Yep, I just tried the exact same thing, but same result: it still just says “Loading” forever but never loads :sob: :cry: :sob:

I really need my banking app to work.

154

Thanks. Really hoping this issue can be promptly resolved.

Keep us posted! :pray:

155

The bug is still present in the 1.9-s-beta builds currently going tested :frowning:

Nationwide isn’t working since 1.8 update.

Regarding Nationwide (I don’t use it), if it was working before 1.8 but not now, has anyone checked Advanced Privacy’s tracker blocking.
I only mention it because of the Outlook situation where that app worked fine before 1.8 and then not because of stricter blocking.
Might not be the case but a look see may be warranted.

Brilliant, thanks for the heads up. I wish my developers in work were this on the ball :+1:t2:

I cannot set-up the Triodos UK banking app (which is rather annoyingly the only way you can apply for new Triodos accounts). It was all going fine, but once it gets to the bit where it wants to record my face it says “Please install Google Play Services” so I’m stumped.

Yeah, if you look at the GitLab issue it’s been marked for 1.10-beta milestone which sounds a Long Way Away :cry:

I know nothing really, but I don’t understand why a fix can’t be rolled out as an update to 1.8.

It could be done, but that is not how /e/ operate.They do regular updates, containing as many tested fixes as are available when the build is due. Unless a defect in a particular build is a “showstopper” (i.e. some core functionality is broken in build 1.n, with no possible workaround") then they won’t do a 1.n.1: the fix will wait until the 1.n+1 or - more likely the 1.n+2 build when it has been properly tested.

Other organisations may do things differently, but that’s the model /e/ have adopted, and it has a lot going for it :slight_smile:

This issue - while it may be annoying for users of the UK Nationwide banking app - doesn’t really count as a “showstopper”

Fair enough, I guess.

165

It’s a bit flippant to dismiss a loss of established functionality as annoying. I find it a bit more than annoying.

I’m sure you do, and I would too if I were using the app on /e/OS. But the fact remains that, for a number of reasons, it’s not a bug that qualifies as a “showstopper” or merits a new 1.n.1 release, which a: risks causing problems by the fix not being properly tested, and b: delays the release of the next scheduled version.

167

Thanks for the additional explanation, but you’ve already stated its not a showstopper, and I don’t dispute that decision or the rationale for making that decision. I also accept the fact that the new bug created by the update isn’t going to be patched and we’ll have to wait for a future update. Repeating that wasn’t productive, I understood the first time.

What I don’t accept is your flippancy around it being annoying for users. It’s more than annoying to lose previously reliable functionality in a commercial product that I paid for, and was using day to day to support my work. Your unhelpful response is making me less likely to replace this e/OS phone with another.

I hope that better illustrates my level of dissatisfaction and hopefully you’ll understand that this is more than a mere annoyance.

Firstly, none my posts in this thread were in response to you: there were responses to posts by @GreyLinux and @jdaviescoates .

Secondly, I really don’t care whether you “accept” what you choose to see as flippancy, and what I choose to see as having a sense of proportion about what, in reality, and in the grand scheme of things, is a relatively minor problem. Feel free to not accept it - I can probably live with the consequences :slight_smile:

Really? You would let your high level of “dissatisfaction” with the comments of a forum user who has no formal connection to /e/ affect your decision about what phone and what phone OS to select? You clearly do see it as more than a mere annoyance, but you really might want to check out your own sense of proportion and perspective. The phrase “Get over yourself!”, springs to my mind for some reason.

You might also want to find out how easy it is to mute a forum user whose views, posts, or attitude upset , offend, or bore you. (Open that user’s profile, and select ‘Muted’ from the drop-down box which defaults to 'Normal`). I am about to use that facility :wink: Good night!

This app does not work on this OS e
It is the most widely used payment app in Belgium

It would be nice if this ever works out.
Only then I can inform friends about this fine degoogled daily use.

Is this the right place to ask this question?
