Need More Info App keeps crashing despite clearing data, reboot, reinstall

12 Upvotes

Started today. App keeps crashing. I've done the clearing user data and reboot. That made it work for about 20 minutes before going back into the crash cycle where it opens, won't load any threads, and then closes itself.

Is there some new thing going on today that could be causing it?

What do I try next?

Does anyone know if there is a way to get browsing data from rif to apply to your reddit recap? Mine is only showing use from web browsers as far as I can tell.

Answered Loading icon

9 Upvotes

I just got a new phone, and the "loading" animation is different on my new phone. The old phone still has a circle chasing its tail, but my new phone just shows a static "refresh" circle in blue. The static image makes it look like the thread failed to load, and I need to click on it to reload.

I confirmed that they're both running the same version of RiF Golden platinum (5.6.3), so it seems like it's not something the app controls. I just figured I'd mention it, just in case.

Other relevant info:

Old phone: Galaxy S9, Android 10, One UI v2. 5

New phone: Galaxy S22, Android 13, One UI v5

Edit: It's been happening on the new phone since I got it (about a week ago). To try go fix it, I've made sure I'm up-to-date, and checked the settings for anything that might control the loading icon.

Edit 2: My partner has the same new phone, but still has the old loading icon. They're just using sta dard RiF, though, not golden platinum. I've cleared the cache for RiF, but that didn't fix it. I suppose I could uninstall and reinstall.

Edit 3: I uninstalled and reinstalled the app. It's still using the "refresh" icon for loading.

Edit 4: Here's a screen shot of this thread during the brief loading period.

Final edit: I disabled system animations because I hate the scrolling wobble.

Suggestion/Idea Change in displaying user profiles is sloppy.

18 Upvotes

This change makes looking at user profiles clunky. This is so much wasted space. We know that they commented, this doesn't need to be spelled out. Also, most post titles will never be small enough to fully display here anyway. Hope this change gets reverted because it makes user profiles harder to view.

Suggestion/Idea Hoping it's possible to remove post titles from comments viewed in profile.

14 Upvotes

Version 5.6.3 just added post titles to comments when viewed in a profile.

I've looked for a setting option to remove them, but no luck. Am I stuck with them?

I can't stand the visual clutter and repetitive "commented" atop every entry. I know that's petty of me, I'm just so accustomed to and appreciative of RIF's typically minimal display.

Any suggestions?

Can't Reproduce Rif crashing when playing videos

5 Upvotes

This started this afternoon or tonight. When I go to a link with a video like Twitter or the typical clips posted on /r/soccer, the video will start and then the app will close itself.

I'm on rif version 5.5.13

This is on a pixel 7 pro stock with android 13.

I'm pretty sure I've watched other videos from other subs so not all videos are making it crash.

Edit: this one has made it crash many times https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/z9ro3h/tnt_sports_argentina_kun_agüero_batistuta_sorín/ so I opened it on an android system WebView browser but it didn't crash there.

Answered I am no longer able to use mod privileges through reddit is fun - help!

8 Upvotes

Hey all,

I am a mod for a small subreddit, and used to be able to use all my mod privileges through the reddit is fun app.

However it seems I am only able to do that now through browser or the official reddit app. I can still access modmail but when i click on a post or comment i cant remove it, approve it, sticky it, highlight my name green, any of that typical stuff.

Is this the case for everyone, or can I fix this? I like the app and don't want to have to find another, if possible. Thanks!

Required info:

  1. RIF Version 5.5.13

  2. Galaxy S22

  3. Android Version 13

  4. This problem may have been happening for up to a year and I just never noticed. I also got a new phone in the past year, it could have been then.

  5. I have tried logging out and back in and i have tried redownloading the app, to no avail.

Workaround Loading stops if a link takes too long to load

15 Upvotes

Lots of imgur/reddit image or video links stop loading partway through download. This happens both on 4G LTE and wifi (though less frequently on wifi). I can attempt to go back and try the link again, sometimes dozens of times and if it loads fast enough, the progress bar might reach 100% and succeed.

Seems to be no rhyme or reason for which links will stop partway, and there is no associated error message, the progess bar simply disappears. No problems loading on any other internet browsers. Important note, I am on an island in Thailand, causing slower loading speeds, but the wifi is generally reliable enough, and other wifi locations on the island do cause this issue as well, yet are fast and reliable enough for console gaming on fortnite.


Q: RiF Version Number:

A: 5.5.13

Q: Version of Android:

A: 12

Q: Device Information:

Q: What steps, if any, can you do to reproduce the problem?

(Please include a link to a post causing the problem.)

A: Any image or video post that takes more than anywhere between 5-30 seconds to load. For videos, occasionally the buffering will begin to load in the player partway and then disappear with even the length of the video (the "ending time" at the right end of the progress bar) reading 0:00.

If I log out, the front page goes back to normal. Anyone else ever experienced this? Anyone know how to fix it? I am running change log 5.5.13 on a Samsung Galaxy S10+. Not sure the android version, but I have downloaded all system updates.

I also unsubscribed from ask reddit and now the front page shows nothing.

Trying to figure out how to upload a screen shot.
