Relevant logs and/or screenshots
(Paste any relevant logs - please use code blocks (```) to format console output,
logs, and code as it's very hard to read otherwise.)
(You can use adb logcat
command to capture log of you device, when connected to a computer)
Possible fixes
There is a simple resolution to the issue
