Bug ID: 470165 Summary: Runs in background on Pixel watch with no notification, increases battery use Classification: Applications Product: kdeconnect Version: unspecified Platform: Android OS: Android 13.x Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: android-application Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com Reporter: sgosn...@riseup.net CC: andrew.g.r.hol...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** Google Pixel 7 Pro phone running Android 13 plus Pixel watch running WearOS 3.5. Watch battery life suddenly decreased by a large amount. Unable to find any cause for a few days, but accidentally got to a page on the watch which showed audio playing from Firefox, although no audio was heard. Unable to stop it. Restarted watch and phone with no change. Eventually suspected kdeconnect, killed that on the phone and the background process stopped. Nothing on the phone showed the connection. Unpaired the phone from kdeconnect and watch battery life returned to normal. Kdeconnect somehow connected to the watch sending a website which was no longer in use on Firefox, and continued until stopped on the phone. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. I'm not sure it's reproducible. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Kdeconnect sent a connection to phone in background without user knowingly connecting. Unable to stop the stream on watch EXPECTED RESULT At worst, ability to stop the stream from the watch. Tapping on the play/pause icon had no effect. Connection should be obvious to user, not hidden.
