• /e/ version: /e/ test hobart
• Device model: kiwi (nougat)
• When it started to occur: both on fresh install and after update
• Reproducible with the last /e/ version: -
• Reproducible with LineageOS: -

Summary

On the last AccountManager version, it seems the Tasks app synchronisation is broken.

• The device is unusable
• The bug is the source of a data loss or a big waste of time
• The bug concerns a third party app
• The bug concerns security
• The bug concerns privacy

The problem

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the /e/ test build
2. Add an /e/ account
3. Add a new task in Tasks app

What is the current behavior?

1. The task is not synced on ecloud
2. A white page is shown on a regular basis (only on install after update)

What is the expected correct behavior?

Tasks have to be synced without any configuration, both when the update is installed on a fresh installation or after updating a previous version.

Technical informations

The Tasks app used is OpenTasks, and not the fork we did.

Relevant logs (adb logcat)

The following log appears when the white page appears.
