I would like to know if anybody else is experiencing the same issue with the MEGA app since the last update. For me, it starts, then updates the file list, and just when you think that everything seems to be working fine, it stops. I have tried to clear the cache and program data, but without any luck. The same behavior is seen on both my Oneplus One and a Fairphone 2.
I have same issue on a FP3.
Updates are available. Click on it ans download. Once downloaded, appli crashes ans phone goes back to home screen.
Same behaviour when selecting “uodate all” or selecting appli zone by one.
@PKT, he was talking about the MEGA cloud storage app, you seem to be referring to something else. The Apps store maybe?
Anyway, I haven’t updated to 0515 yet so can’t check the issue. I’m not one to update every time a new build is available. Given that there hasn’t been any changelogs available since early March I never know if I should update or not.
@marcdw You’re correct, my problem is with the MEGA cloud storage application that won’t open correctly since the last update of the /e/OS. Let’s see if you experience the same thing.
@marcdw Hello ! Yes. Sorry for the mistake. I was talking about the App store on FP3. It seems that upgrades are avalaible for some app, but clicking on all or one, download is going and at the end, the App store crashes.
@marcdw Glad to hear that it worked on your Nougat device. Maybe its to early to say if it’s the App, the OS or a combination of both. The MEGA app I have installed is version 3.7.5.
@woodruff It seems to be the same issue as I have. When I start MEGA it seems to load correctly, it goes so far that I can see my cloud files and folders, but only for a second or two. Shortly after that view it crashes and exits. The things I have tried so far hasn’t helped solving the issue.
@Mgns
Okay folks. Did a round of testing once I updated to latest Pie build. The problem is not with /e/ really.
On both Nougat and Pie:
My TBO clear version 3.0.6 GOOD.
Version 3.7.4 GOOD. Latest version shown to me via Aurora/Play Store.
Version 3.7.5 (305) BAD. installed from Apps store. For completeness I also tried build 302 from apkmirror. Same result.
Crash logs show 3.7.5 is trying to invoke some kind of billing manager, i.e. In-App Billing. It’s not a Google thing either. ClassyShark3xodus doesn’t see it as a tracker.
apps_Packages Info does show it has a related permission: com.android.vending.BILLING.

Continues on few more lines.
Using Blocker and MyAndroidTools I see only one activity with the word “bill” in it. Blocked that as well as other things I usually block. Didn’t help.
3.7.5 introduced a new UI as well.
I suggest sticking with 3.7.4 then test 3.7.6 when it comes out.
