Description

Setting:

Alice and Bob running both devices with Android 4.1.2 and the latest Chatsecure installed. Encryption between the devices is properly configured and active.
Same XMPP Provider is used. XMPP provider was changed during the tests to ensure its not a provider issue.

Alice is able to send files/pictures to Bob, Bob is able to receive and open the files/pictures.

When Bob tries to send files/pictures to Alice, something goes wrong.
After selecting the file/picture Bob is thrown back to the "Contacts" screen.

At XMPP provider ONE (jabber.de) - the contacts screen shows all added contacts
At XMPP provider TWO (jabber.ccc.de) - the contacts screen shows "No contacts found"

File Transfer doesn't start, Alice doesn't get "accept/decline file transfer" message.

History

#1 Updated by hoiba almost 4 years ago

Was able to figure out what's causing the problem:

Bob used "File Manager" App (Rhythm Software) to browse for files to send. This resulted in the bug.

After replacing "File Manager" with "ES File Explorer" App (ES APP Group) all file transfers worked fine!
