DESCRIPTION:

Trying to open updated version of OP Mobile doesn’t work.

PRECONDITIONS:

  1. start AAS
  2. update OP-Mobiili to it’s newest version
  3. try to launch the app

EXPECTED RESULT:

The App launches

ACTUAL RESULT:


The icon flashes and nothing happens.
MODIFICATIONS:


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

I’m sad but this is the last straw that makes me shift from N900->onwards to something other. Unable to do banking or ID yourself is just too much. I will monitor Sailfish OS and hopefully some day come back.

I can reproduce this on 5.0.0.55 after updating OP-Mobile to 71.0.0. The app closes as quickly as it opens, no error messages are shown.

According to app information, it is targeted at API level 35, while API level on 5.0.0.55 is 30.

I re-installed the previous version of OP-mobile, while waiting for a fix to be able to use the latest version:

  1. Uninstall OP-mobile
  2. Search OP-mobile on Aurora Store
  3. Select “manual downloading” and set the version number to 7003
  4. Download and install

I know I could downgrade the app. I did that with Finnish S-Mobiili app until the old stopped working and I could not access my secondary bank account. I cannot have this happen with my primary bank account.

Have you already complained to the bank?

With Aurora Store we noticed that the latest version crashes immediately after it opens. It looked like a data migration bug and quick fix was to clean up cache and data from Settings → Aurora Store.

Unfortunately that didn’t help. Perhaps someone, who has microg already installed, could test the latest version of OP-mobile.

Doesn’t seem to work with microG installed either.

Yup, updated my microg yesterday, and now trying OP Mobile it shuts down immediately. I wonder whether journalctl --follow would give any hint what happens, I myself don’t have the time now.

Then again, some recent commenter on the Aurora (Play) don’t seem too impressed of the app on vanilla Android either. We remember we had hard time with renewed MobilePay a year back until the programmers sorted their crap out.

Issue fixed on my XA2 with newer version 71.0.1 released today…still crashing on my C2 -AAS restarted on both phones.

With Tampella on Sony ii only Op version 70.0.0 worked. Not the latest ( which means bit trouble)

OP reported that they fixed the issue. I’ll have to check on my C2 as well if I can still reproduce it.

OP will also be having an apparently bigger overhaul in their electric services in the night between Saturday and Sunday. I’d think it’s possible that the mobile bank woes are part of bigger electric services woes.

Please report to https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/banking-apps-on-sailfish-os/ when the situation has stabilised - various hardware and various os versions.

:+1:I’ve planned to do that for a while for a couple of missing banks…will take the time to do that

Can confirm, that this is broken on C2.

After flashing my C2 to 5.0.0.62 to increase the root size, I no longer have a working OP-Mobiili App. I tried different versions of the App, and also downgraded the microG version (the one that used to work on my C2 before the fastboot flash)…and still no go :frowning_face:
Wondering if I should re-flash again or just let it go … other Bank App (Banxo) is working though
– update –
Both banking Apps work fin on my XA2 (5.0.0.62)

Have you checked that all the boxes are ticked in MicroG Settings? On my Xperia 10, SFOS 5.0 and MicroG 0.3.0 at least OP-Mobiili 70.0.0 works (haven’t tested any of the newer versions), so might be just matter of finding the right versions of everything or it is the difference between 32bit and 64bit and might be fubar for now.

Yup, boxes are 100% checked! And OP-Mobiili used to work on my C2 with latest Sailfish version…all same, but now with a reflashed phone and larger root size, no go :thinking:

I’ve added my settings to the wiki
– new update –
Re-flashing with 5.0.0.43 is ending with similar issue, no matter if I install microg or not..tried several combinations, no luck. Wondering if something has changed on AppSupport between original (C2) 5.0 version and newer versions. Thinking to contact Jolla Support now :slightly_frowning_face:

Figured that disabling Ptrace Scope allows me now to start OP-mobiili (change value of /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope from “1” to “0”).
I have a second C2 which has not been fastboot flashed, and uses the latest OS version and has the value set to “1” where OP-mobiili works…
On my AX2, which has been upgraded to latest 5 version, Ptrace Scope does not exist … and still no issue with the App.
While disabling this settings on my C2 helps me, I’m not certain I should keep it as it is now, for security reasons (?)…but wonder if something else has changed, making it “screaming” in journalctl about OP-mobiili trying to attach to another instance of itself using ptrace() ?
As I’ve already opened a ticket to the Support, I will update them with this :crossed_fingers:
