Yeah, that's unfortunate. With recent versions of Android that the auto-upload function wasn't working anymore, due to [presumably] some Android lifecycle (https://developer.android.com/guide/components/services#LifecycleCallbacks) bug on our side, so Mathieu did a "quick fix" hacky workaround of just making the app's Service always run. We still want to fix the lifecycle bug properly, but running at all was better than not, even if we're wasting some RAM. Force kill for now, yeah. :-/ > Will this new app even work with older backend? (I'm at "Camlistore: > 2017-05-31-68cd59797a+"). Generally they're independent, but there have been two notable changes that do require a newer server now. The biggest is the move away from sha1. Your app will now send sha224 blobs, which an old server wouldn't understand. > As much as I'm for progress, why not a new app? It's the same app with a different name & icon, but it's all the same code. Making a new app would just confuse things more. > The system I have has been working just fine. Until you updated your Android to a new OS version, sadly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Perkeep" group.
