[/e/OS] Clock App behaving in unexpected ways in Q
- /e/ version: 1.5-20221028230220
- Device model(s): GS290
- Device rooted: no
Summary
After the recent updates /e/OS is behaving in unexpected ways in q and the Clock app isn't working normally. It seems related to a storage problem as pictures and screenshots are not saved on the device (cf. here).
The problem
What is the current behavior?
The alarm function isn't working anymore. The entire app seems to behave erratically actually.
- When you open the clock app it won't show any of your alarms. In the video bellow, you will the alarms will appear after several seconds ( please disregard the fact that tapped everywhere, I was trying to force the app to respond):
- Alarm toggles won't work. As soon as you tap to turn it on, the toggle will switch back and remain disabled.
- If you kill the app and reopen it, the toggles may reappear enabled, but won't respond to click either:
- Accordion is not working. When you click on the
down arrow
it won't responding and allow you to open the alarm settings. After some time, it may or may not work. The behavior is erratic and varies a lot. Sometimes it will fire a error dialog saying the app isn't responding and sometimes it won't:
- The ringtone field is displaying numbers instead of names. If you try to go to the ringtones list, after several seconds of delay it won't show the list:
- Another issue is when the time is up for the alarm to ring, it will vibrate but it won't play the ringtone (the alarm will ring at the end of the video):
- Interestingly, when you've dismissed the alarm all of sudden it will start playing the ringtone, which cannot be dismissed anymore and you will have to kill the app. Observation: sometimes the alarm won't play at all.

As a side note, hopefully this issue is only on my device, otherwise our users can be missing their appointments. Also, several apps aren't working normally in q after the recent updates, like the Files app, Gallery and App Lounge. I will open other tickets for them.
