Mouserider Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 After updating to 2.6.1 (7881) on Android 8.0, I lost access to my folders which reside on my SD card. I reclaimed permissions, selected default locations again and rebooted phone, but the issue persists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Did you upgrade the app from BitTorrent to Resilio Sync? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouserider Posted August 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 No, it was even a very recent install right from the Play Store. It works again when I reconnect the folders, but I just wanted to let you know about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouserider Posted August 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 This happened on a Moto Z 1st Gen. with Android 8.0. I did not have the same issue on a Honor 6 with Android 6 (also on SD) or on a Moto G 1st Gen with Android 5 (Internal Storage). I already completely uninstalled Sync from the Moto Z, deleted all folders and set it up again, but I keep having issues with the synchronization. Changed files from other devices will often not be downloaded, the progress bar will be stuck somewhere in the middle. I had a similar issue sometimes with versions up to 2.5 where the download of changed files did not start for some files any more. In that case the "Overwrite changed files" option used to help. Here it does not. The Desktop peer where it should download from was already updated to 2.6 as well. Unfortunately I cannot test on my Moto Z any longer. I should get a Moto Z2 Play with Android 8 by end of this week though. I am a bit surprised I don't see anyone else reporting similar issues.

I confirm this issue on Sony XZ1 with Android 8.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 @darpas I have heard about such bug in 2.6.0 version. But that would be great if you can send logs for the further issue investigation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakgrund Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Same problem here. Tried on both Oreo and Nougat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I tried to send logfiles from android but could not find in 2.6.1 the "send feedback" option (note that I am using the Italian version) as explained in: https://help.resilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/205458145-Settings-on-mobile-platforms Has this option been moved? Thank you Dario Pascucci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 @Bakgrund@darpas Did you have 2.5.x version previously installed before the app upgrading? In general that's a known bug and we investigate the reasons of such behaviour the quick fix is only the folder reconnecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general that's a known bug and we investigate the reasons of sucg behaviour the quick fix is only the folder reconnecting. Is disconnecting and reconnecting the shared folder (already populated with files and .sync directory) a reliable procedure? or should we completely delete the shared folder and recreate from scratch? I remember that some time ago I read in the resilio online documentation that reconnecting a pre-populated folder is not a reliable procedure and should be avoided. Can you clarify this point? Thank you very much for your support Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eltopo Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 I had a similar issue with Sync 2.6.0 on Android 7.0, see this post: @darpas: it seems working fine for me with the disconnect-then-reconnect solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same issue with a Moto Z2 Force on Android 8 and using a folder location on the SD card. New Sync installation on the phone. New folder created on the Desktop. Sharing the folder via Read-only QR code. Settings: Selective sync turned off, Overwrite changed files Add a file to the folder: It will be transferred successfully. First update: File is overwritten. Second update: Transfer is stuck. I will send the debug log of the new installation now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in case any of the readers experiences the same issue: The problem occurred on Android 8 with the folder on SD card and Archive enabled (default setting). Using Archive on SD was not yet possible on 2.5. This was resolved in a development/test version and I guess the fix will be made public with the next official release.
