Android runtime crashes when dismissing Signal background notification notification
asked 2017-09-14 09:44:38 +0200
I installed the Android Signal app on my Jolla 1, since the native Jolla one doesn't fly with the official server. Since the beginning, and also with Sailfish 2.1.1.26, I have to remember _not_ to dismiss the notification about Signal background notifications being activated. Once I do this, the whole Android runtime crashes along with other open apps.
This is 100% reliable for me, and has been that way since I tried Signal on the device. A side effect (if I remember not to dismiss the notification) of this is that I have to ignore the icon about Signal notifications pending, not having a clue about actual messages waiting or not.
Does nobody else have this problem? There is no chance involved. It happens every time for me.
Using LibreSignal Jolla Edition I cannot reproduce the issue.

I am talking about the official Signal Android app, installed from a direct download from their website. I read something on the Sailfish release notes about such an issue, but for me the crash happens with the latest SFOS just like before.

The Riot.im Adroid app behaves as expected after pressing the notification in the events view: Riot app maximises, no Android App crashes.
