| Summary | 0011402: Back button causes MMA to become 'inaccessible' (regression) | ||||
| Description | In build 173, the following series of steps causes MMA to be inaccessible from the UI, so that it is impossible to stop playback / close the app / etc... 0 enable the lock screen player via the options menu 1 initiate playback 2 press 'back' to exit the app 3 press 'power' to trigger the lock screen player (or wait for the lock screen timeout) 4 press 'power' again to turn on the screen --> Lock screen player fails to activate and MediaMonkey isn't on the home screen notifications bar (even though it's playing)!! 5 Try to click the MediaMonkey icon in order to access the MMA UI --> The screen briefly flashes but MMA UI won't appear The only way to access the UI is to force MMA closed, and then rerun the app--though on occasion, even that fails and then MMA must be ininstalled. Note: if step 0 or 2 is skipped the bug won't occur | ||||
| Additional Information | Tested on GS3 running Android 4.1.1. 'Show MediaMonkey when screen is locked' enabled 'Hide the default Android lock screen player' disabled 'Show in notifications bar' is set to 3 minutes | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Fixed in build | 178 | ||||

Further testing reveals that the bug only occurs after the user has activated the lock screen player once. i.e. -5 enable the lock screen player via the options menu -4 initiate playback -3 press 'power' to trigger the lock screen player (or wait for the lock screen timeout) -2 press 'power' again to turn on the screen --> Lock screen player appears -1 press home to get to the lock screen and then re-open to MMA Then proceed with the originally described steps: 1 initiate playback 2 press 'back' to exit the app --> MM continues playing but the MM icon fails to display in the notifications bar 3 press 'power' to trigger the lock screen player (or wait for the lock screen timeout) 4 press 'power' again to turn on the screen --> Lock screen player fails to activate and MediaMonkey isn't on the home screen notifications bar (even though it's playing)!! 5 Try to click the MediaMonkey icon in order to access the MMA UI --> The screen briefly flashes but MMA UI won't appear |

|
Note also, that at step 2, MM usually fails to display an icon in the notifications bar. This behavior isn't consistent. |

Further testing reveals an even simpler set of repro steps--steps 3/4 can be skipped: Further testing reveals that the bug only occurs after the user has activated the lock screen player once. i.e. -5 enable the lock screen player via the options menu -4 initiate playback -3 press 'power' to trigger the lock screen player (or wait for the lock screen timeout) -2 press 'power' again to turn on the screen --> Lock screen player appears -1 press home to get to the lock screen and then re-open to MMA Then proceed with the originally described steps: 1 initiate playback 2 press 'back' to exit the app --> MM continues playing but the MM icon fails to display in the notifications bar 5 Try to click the MediaMonkey icon in order to access the MMA UI --> The screen briefly flashes but MMA UI won't appear |

Verified 175, though I noticed occasional strange behavior in which: - clicking back failed to exit the home screen, and clicking it again worked - clicking the MMA icon caused MMA to flash and not open, but clicking it again worked |
|
|
Re-opening as a lower-priority issue since the problem still occurs occasionally: - Sometimes, backing out of the application while playback is in progress doesn't trigger the MMA notification to appear - Sometimes, clicking the MMA icon fails to launch the UI, though the issue usually resolves itself after a few clicks - One a couple of occasions, clicking 'back' failed to exit the home screen, and clicking it again worked I can't figure out the specific trigger, but these issues do occur consistently when going through the series of steps outlined earlier in this bug, or variations thereof. |

I changed detection of MMA visibility so issues about MMA notification should be fixed. About other issues described above I have not reproduced but behaviour around Lockscreen player was changed so maybe it could help. Fixed in build 177. |

Tested build 177, and the bug consistently occurs as originally described: 0 In Android, enable lock screen on pressing 'power button'. In MMA, enable the lock screen player via the options menu 1 Run MMA and initiate playback 2 press 'back' to exit the app 3 press 'power' to trigger the lock screen player 4 press 'power' again to turn on the screen --> Lock screen player activates as expected 5 press 'home' button to hide the lock screen player and cause the Android Lock Screen to appear 6 get past the lock screen (e.g. password / swipe) -->Android home screen appears 7 Click the MediaMonkey icon in order to access the MMA UI --> The screen briefly flashes but MMA UI won't appear! --> The only way to access MMA UI at this stage is via the notifications bar The really interesting thing is that if at step 5, I press the 'back' button instead of the 'home' button in order to hide the lock screen player, then the bug does _not_ occur at step 7 Also, I tested this on two different devices this time, and it occurs in the exact same manner. Tested on: GS3 / Android 4.1.1 Experia Pro / Android 4.0.3 Setting to Immediate, and the bug occurs 100% of the time. |
