Android: cannot use Paco #1679

Description

@Ryusei-okegawa

I've read in the past that it was recently updated to fix a problem that was preventing it from being used on Android devices, but it still doesn't work.

    Could you describe the problem in detail along with which phone make and android version you are using?

    Actually, if you would, could you generate a bug report and email it bob@pacoapp.com?

    Here are the steps (adapted from the Pocket debug page):

    Step 1: Enable Developer Options
    Enabling Developer Options on your Android device gives you a few more advanced settings. Other than making these additional settings visible, it will not make any changes to your device. Here’s how to enable them:

    Visit your device’s Settings app and select About phone or About tablet. It is typically the last one in the main Settings or if the Settings app is broken into sections, it might be in a tab like “General" or “Device”.
    In the “About” section, scroll down to the Build number - it’s typically the last one - and tap it 10 times, until you see a message that says “You are now a developer!”. Developer Options are now enabled.
    Tap the back button to leave the “About” page. The new Developer Options item will now be shown directly under or above “About phone”.

    Step 2: Capture a Bug Report

    Here’s how to capture a Bug Report and send it:

    Reproduce the issue that you’re seeing. For example, complete the steps that cause Paco to crash.
    After reproducing the issue, go into the main Settings app and select Developer Options.
    Tap Take bug report (you may need to toggle the “On" switch at the top first). After a few minutes you will receive a prompt to email the bug report. Please send it to bob@pacoapp.com.
    Note: If the Take bug report option is disabled, please try enabling the USB Debugging option in Developer Options and try again.

    It was reported by two collaborators, and we were not able to ask the manufacturer of each device, but the versions are 11 and 10. I think the symptoms are exactly the same as in the previous issue of "Android: Cannot login on App": logging in with a Google account does not change the screen, and pressing login again does not respond.
