Summary

Nearby used to display pins on the map. They are no longer visible. So, I can't initiate any uploads from Nearby. Moreover, the following features are also not working:

  • Search this area button
  • The list button at the top right corner

Moreover, the app often crashes or stops responding while trying the above features.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open the app and switch to Nearby tab
  2. Wait for the pins to load or navigate to other areas to search for them using "Search this area" button
  3. Tap the list icon at the top right corner

Expected behaviour

The nearby pins should load, "Search this area" should load pins on other areas on Earth and tapping the list icon should show a list of nearby places.

Actual behaviour

Nearby pins do not load, nor do the "Search this area" button or the list icon work.

Interesting, this is working fine on my Android 14 device.
Anyone who wants to work on this, please first make sure you can reproduce, using an emulator if needed.

This has been partly fixed by PR#5418 , I'll just highlight the differences with the app available on Play Store.

@RitikaPahwa4444 the problem here is that the app is asking for location permission but does not ask to turn on the location services (which it should do directly after permission is given, if they are off). I reported this in another issue as well, #5255 (comment). Does this happen even when the location services are on?

This issue is a bit different from the one highlighted in that comment. That issue used to exist, I agree. I'll test for that too and post my observations there. For this issue, I'll share for all the cases I can think of.

I think you are right, it's not dependant on whether the location services are on/off, because for my device it's working irrespective of the state of location services. I'll try to reproduce this on some other device / emulator

@RitikaPahwa4444 After a lot of digging, I found that in the cases you mentioned, the onclicklistener for SearchThisArea button was not being set, so no operations were being performed. I'll fix this and send a PR soon, to resolve this.

Great. Thanks for taking the time to figure this out, @ShashwatKedia 🙂

@RitikaPahwa4444 could you confirm that the above PR works on your device as well, since you were the one who found this issue out ;)

Hi @ShashwatKedia, thanks for the PR. I'm testing that branch, working great so far :)

@RitikaPahwa4444 As the original reporter, do you think the PR is worth merging? :-)

I'd tested that branch over a month ago and approved too, since it fixed this issue back then (I can test again if required) and we agreed on opening a separate ticket for a minor popup related issue (#5549).

I could understand the PR has been long standing. If you're asking this since you plan on merging this, could you wait for the last two comments to be resolved? We could take the rest as fixes on top, as needed

Localisation updates from https://translatewiki.net.

Remove the value-yue-hant file

The file is not properly recognized by Android and we've actually
codemapped it to yue. The translatewiki configuration has been
done in the incorrect file. So, it is still being created.

The following Gerrit change would correct it for updates after that
change is merged.

  https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/translatewiki/+/1022508

For the time being remove it for the sake of release.
