2024-04-29 - Problems synchronising with the Android app and the Joplin Cloud

questions about details come to my mind

What is the meaning of

updated_time
user_updated_time

laurent · 2024-07-06T16:20:59.343Z

user_updated_time is the "last updated" time that you can manually set in the note property. updated_time is the effective "last updated" time.

By the way we document all this, so if you are wondering about any property, it's all in the help page: Joplin Data API | Joplin (the search function is also useful to search for a specific property)

Thanks for this recommendation

What is the purpose of being able to change the values for user_updated_time and user_created_time manually?

laurent · 2024-07-06T17:16:14.593Z

One obvious use case is when importing notes from another app. Internally we want the created_time property to be the real time when the note was imported (as it is used for sync purposes). However user_created_time will be set to the time when the note was created in the other note taking app. That allows preserving timestamps basically.

In the forum you'll also find some users who want to change the timestamp because they accidentally modified the note for example.

It should download all attachments by default. I'm not grasping the complexity of your particular case at the moment since there are many posts, but if you can narrow it down that may help. For example you have a specific image in desktop, and it doesn't appear in mobile, let's find out why.

Even with Joplin 3.0.8 (prod, android) I still have 5501 attachments that have not been downloaded.
I suspect that the Android app currently only downloads individual attachments when I open a note whose attachments have not yet been downloaded.
Who needs to do what to ensure that a future version of Joplin on Android really downloads all attachments at once?

In "Configuration" > "Synchronization" > "Advanced", is "Attachment download behavior" set to "Always"? In "Auto" mode, attachments should only be downloaded when opening a note.

Thanks for the tip, @personalizedrefriger !
I have now changed my configuration from "Automatic" to "Always".
In the side menu at the bottom under "Synchronize" I can now see that many attachments are being downloaded.
Only when this download and the decryption is completely finished does it make sense to take a closer look at the other inconsistencies in my data set.

Once again, I had rejoiced too soon when I marked my 2024-07-07 - 19:40 pm fork as ‘solved’. The notes I fixed there are now broken again.

I'm afraid there's no point in documenting the details of my attempt today in a separate post

2024-09-06 - Android - two elements are not decrypted

If anyone has a different opinion, please let me know.

I somehow tried to repair two supposedly downloaded but undecryptable items for Android 14.
However, these elements no longer exist, so they cannot be downloaded.

The following error message is IMHO misleading:

Joplin konnte diese Elemente trotz mehrfacher Versuche nicht entschlüsseln, weil sie wahrscheinlich entweder kaputt oder zu groß sind. Diese Elemente bleiben auf dem Gerat, aber Joplin wird nicht mehr versuchen sie zu entschlüsseln.

At the beginning of my repair attempt today, Android 14 showed 2 elements of this strange kind. After this repair attempt, Android 14 showed 7 such elements.
That's why I'm leaving it alone again for now.

Would it be possible for you to reopen the following topic.
It was automatically closed, but IMHO is still very relevant.

After more than 16 hours and "Caffeine" activated the "not ok" version on Android 12 shows [2024-08-31 212311 - not ok sync status] and [2024-08-31 212211 - not ok]

Hi @personalizedrefriger when will the new 3.1 Joplin version for Android be rolled out?
I would like to use it to test the various issues again if I don't get any further guidance on which issues it should or shouldn't solve.

Hi @personalizedrefriger when will the new 3.1 Joplin version for Android be rolled out?

I'm notifying @laurent — the version of Joplin in the Play Store is currently v3.0.8. According to the release cycle, Android v3.1 should be stable as of October 18th.

Note: the Android pre-releases are available on GitHub.

laurent · 2024-10-30T16:09:25.913Z

Right, it seems I forgot to deploy to Google Play. In the meantime you can use the APK 3.1.6+ as this is the production-ready release (which I now marked as "latest" on the repo)
