Bugs with synchronization for Android app

Post by Georgo2010 »

Hi guys,

let me tell you some bugs:

1/ Dysfunctional synchronization of contacts, synchronized notes are displayed in one line!
2/ Why after synchronize are created in EssentialPIM (for PC) a new "system" tabs, although they don´t exist in app for Andorid?

Suggestion:
* Try to fix it, please :(
* If is connected to wi-fi network, please highlight text in brackets (1 step of instruction during PC Sync) with name of wi-fi network (eg. by yellow color) :wink:

1. This will probably change in the future. Thanks for your note about current situation
2. Fixed
3. You get updates automatically from the Google Play Store, not sure if we should send out a newsletter about that

App issues:

1. Cannot do that unfortunately as the app is called EssentialPIM (no space)
2. Yes, can do that
3. Will do, thanks for the suggestion
4. Please mention specifically which of the strings aren’t implemented. Will check text overflow issue. We include all the latest Android strings into EssentialPIM language file
5. Sorry I don’t understand what you mean, please rephrase the first part. No crash for us in Passwords. If there’s a crash on your device, please send the log file out to Google and we’ll retrieve it from there.
6. Fixed in 1.3.6 version, please update
7. Crash shouldn’t happen in the first place. If it happens, please send out the log file to Google from within the crash window
8. Noted
9. What are the names of such tabs? Also, once you delete them, they’re gone
10. Noted, thanks
11. Yes, widgets are in the plans
Android version of EssentialPIM. Keep all your data in sync!

Suggestion: After first run (or any time later after press menu button next to About window) show pop-up window "What is new?" in specific version and history changes.
I prepared a sample window :idea:

Bug: Why are not implemented some of czech string from latest language file which I post it? Why some of these overflow (eg. "PC sync" --> "Synchron..") or stay untranslated (eg. item System default language)? Where can I download and compare/try to fix actual language file for Android?
I corrected all the strings which overflow (it was very difficult for me to fix because the english strings also overflow :roll: ), and better renamed. Where can I upload czech language files for Android?

Bugs: Why I don´t see password hit in Password module? Isn´t covered by button "Done" (instead of putting down) or showing text "Wrong password"? After enter right password app (1.3.3/1.3.5) crash, although you´ll write "Fixed crash in Passwords" in Google store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... sentialpim). Please improve this section :!:

Crash app after enter wrong master password in Password module was probably fixed in the latest version (1.3.5+), thank you. However, when I enter an incorrect password, I´ll don´t see defined text for help (password hint).

Hi guys (from development),

Here I have prepared repair of the Czech translation (mainly overflow strings and minor modifications,line feed - eg. you can see to string "ac_wifi_yes" on my little improvement --> can you please write it on a new line instead of show in brackets?) for android which you can. Next time I create for it new post (or you can give me detailed instructions).

I hope I answered everything. Have a nice day. :)

Not all have check automatic update or are off-line. I think it would be good idea inform current registered users by email (in newsletter for PC version) about news in app for smartphone too - user can decide. I guarantee you this is just way for a growing interest about download and increase in popularity (score in e-store) :idea:
