REPRODUCIBILITY: 100%
OS VERSION: 5.0.0.55
HARDWARE: Xpera 10 ii, Xperia 10 ii NOT Jolla C2
UI LANGUAGE: German
REGRESSION: yes

DESCRIPTION:

Instead of starting an Android App belongig to the icon tapped on the app grid, a previously closed Android app opens

PRECONDITIONS:

Run App Support, have different Android Apps installed

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. open an Android App by tapping on the App grid → Android App opens as expected
  2. close the Android App by swiping downwards from a top-lateral screen edge → App closes as expected
  3. Open a different Android App by tapping on the App Grid → the recently closed Android App opens but not the Android which Icon was tapped on

This occurrs on both, The Xperia 10 ii and the Xperia 10 III, but not with the Jolla C2. Jolla C2 behaves as expected, i.e. the Android App belonging to the tapped icon opens

EXPECTED RESULT:

an Android App belonging to the tapped icon opens

ACTUAL RESULT:

a recently closed Android App opens instead of the Android app belonging to the tapped icon

MODIFICATIONS:

none (except for MicroG)

Getting this also on C2

Interesting - just tried (again) to reproduce this bug on the C2 but still cannot reproduce the bug there

4

I’m not getting it 100% of the time, but like 80%, second tap works 100% so far

5

You mean the second tap opens the right App? Indeed, that is the case with my devices, too

6

Yeah, never got this twice in a row

7

On my 10 ii and 10 iii, whenever I try opening a new Android app, the recently closed Android app opens - so far in 100% of my attempts. So on the 10ii and 10iii it happens always (for me).

And I yet have to reproduce the bug on the C2 - there (so far) it never happens

8

Let’s see what other users will report

It feels like 100%, but just for testing I closed one app pretty quickly and next one opened correctly (after having app from 15min ago opened when trying another originally), it’s pretty weird, but yeah definitely having this on c2, it’s a definite .55 regression

I had to reboot the phone for this bug to disappear.

Just trying it - and indeed, you are right! The issue disappeared

12

Yup, it’s gone (though native mobile data required switching from prefer 4g back to 3g to reestablish, but still there for appsupport after back on 4g, we’re getting there)

On my Xperia 10 III reboot didn’t fix this issue. I have tried already a few times including resetting with Volume Up + Power Button. The bug is reproducable all the time after first Android apps have been opened.

14

I had this problem on both my XA2 Plus and 10 iii immediately after upgrading to 5.0.0.55, including some other ‘funnies’ - e.g. You had to tap on an Android app icon 3 or 4 times before the tap would register and the app would load (and, yes, AppSupport was already running), but after rebooting both devices the problem has gone away now.

15

Seems that normal reboot or removing and re-installing the Android AppSupport did the trick for now. Apps open and close normally again.

I get this quite often because the smooth SFOS gestures made me develop the bad habit of opening, closing and then reopening apps again very quickly haha. Restarting AppSupport tends to fix it for me.

17

Never witnessed this with my X10III.
Not even with 5.0.0.55.

18

Maybe you did a reboot before using different android apps

19

No I did not. I do reboot actually very rarely, there can be many weeks in between.

This bug seems to raise every now and then on reboot. I’m not sure whether restart or shutting down and booting caused it to return.

I have never witnessed this before Sailfish 5 release. Surely sometimes Android Apps randomly close themselves when another one is opened. However, when this new opening bug is on, it’s always consistent.
