Forked from 2024-04-29 - Problems synchronising with the Android app and the Joplin Cloud - #72 by Coffee
When trying to create a new note using the new Joplin Mobile 3.1.7 (prod, android) version, Joplin crashes / freezes.
Even restarting Android does not solve the problem.

I could not replicate on my up to date Pixel. Perhaps your Android OS - list the version and build you have. It may play a factor.
So far, I haven't been able to reproduce this. I've attached screen recordings demonstrating what I've tried so far.
Main profile, fresh install of Joplin 3.1.7, GBoard keyboard, no plugins:
New secondary profile, fresh install of Joplin 3.1.7, GBoard keyboard, some plugins:
Does this happen in a new, empty notebook? If so, does this happen in a new profile?
I cannot view your screen recordings. Neither on Android Firefox nor on Windows Firefox nor on Windows Chrome. Can you view my recording?
Yes.
This is what happens in a new, empty notebook
I cannot view your screen recordings. Neither on Android Firefox nor on Windows Firefox nor on Windows Chrome. Can you view my recording?
I can view that recording! I'm converting the recordings from my previous message to .webm format:
No.
In a new empty profile without sync target the new note can be created as expected
Thank you for checking!
Here are a few things to test in the main profile:
Does duplicating, then editing, a note work?
Does disabling plugin support help? (Why this is being asked: Plugins are disabled by default in secondary profiles):
What I'm trying: I'm currently trying to run Joplin on an Android 15 emulator. If that works, I plan to create or simulate decryption errors (so that the error banner is visible).
Update 1: I can create new notes in an empty profile with Joplin on Android 15.
Update 2: If I show the "some items cannot be decrypted" banner (manually, without decryption errors actually being present), I can still create new notes.
Thank you very much. I can watch this format.
Yes.
I actually use this as a workaround.
My main profile with this problem is the 7th "secondary profile" in my device.
Joplin Debug Tool is installed.
What shall I do?
Uninstall it?
For reference, profiles can be deleted by long-pressing the profile option, then clicking "delete" (though I suggest being careful with this!).
I would suggest unchecking "enable plugin support":
I've unchecked it.
The problem persists.
Even after a reboot.
Thank you for checking!
Things I plan to try next:
Another thing to try:
Does temporarily disabling sync help?
I'll try using a smaller secondary profile.
The smaller secondary profile is one that I share folders with.
Before disabling sync, the problem was there too - tested in a new empty folder.
Yes.
Temporarily turning off sync made the problem go away.
After re-enabling sync, the problem returned.
