Core Apps » Orbot

Hi there!

I have the same phone, same version, same issue.

One thing I noticed, though, is that this only happens when Orbot was downloaded from F-Droid. Orbot from Google Play, with the same version number, works just fine.

I'm having the same issue on my Nexus 6P.

I too have the same issue except on OnePlus 2. Also downloaded from F-droid, the version I had previously installed from play store worked fine

I found a solution to this. There seems to be 3 builds of the current version on 3 different dates. If you install the one which is not labelled PIE then it works. It won't upgrade as the signature is different

I also got it working with a different build. Here are the options I see in F-Droid (in the following order):

1. Version 15.0.1-RC-3-PIE - 7/16/15 - 4.4MB
2. Version 15.0.1-RC-3-PIE - 7/18/15 - 8.0MB
3. Version 15.0.1-RC-3 - 7/1/15 - 10.2MB

No. 1 was installed by default. Manually uninstalling orbot and re-installing No. 2 seemed to fix everything.

Could anyone describe why I'm seeing these different versions, and what they mean? Is this some kind of config error where I was installing a version that wasn't compatible with my hardware? Is this something that can be rectified in the packaging?

Same issue with a Verizon LG V10 (VS990, rev 1.0), Android 5.1.1, kernel 3.10.49-gdc160a8-00005-g2eb8497. I used the FDroid app to download Orbot, since the website doesn't appear to point to a file index.
