After the recent crash, new thumbnails don't load #467
Comments

I'm experiencing a similar issue (didn't make a new post because I figured they might be related). Most OP images as well as thread images, webms and gifs included, don't display and instead have an "Error" message, or, occasionally, they will just 404. Something like 1 in 30 thumbnails display normally for me, but I can't load the images. I haven't had the problem with the app softlocking, and only some of the images from before the crash display properly for me. |

I'm experiencing the exact same issue. The last outage before this one caused a similar bug where images wouldn't load, but when I restarted the phone they all loaded. Now that no longer works, restarted twice and still having the problem. Images that were posted prior to the crash still appear but are slow to load. Anything posted post-crash I can't see thumbnails for. I don't get the error or 404, instead I can see the blank space where a thumbnail should be, but clicking it doesn't bring up an image. If I click a pre-crash thumbnail that is visible, I can swipe through and see the images, but if I try to back out of the image the app freezes and has to be closed and re-opened.

Same behavior found on Clover Dev build. |
|
Same issue, on latest Dev build. Android 6. |
|
Same behavior. Google Pixel XL 1 |
|
Same behavior, on lastest build. Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 |
|
Same thing happening to me on the latest Dev build Droid Turbo |
|
+1 on development build |
|
Happening on other apps as well, probably due to api calls being shut down or something. |
|
The official docs still point to the t. domain. I think it's best to let the 4chan devs have the time to fix this on their side first (the site has been unstable for the past few days) before changing the endpoint on our side. |
|
Maybe a toggle to switch between domains in "site" options? |
|
I think one of the problems is for the new image poster after the recent crash, the image doesn't sent to t.4cdn.org as a thumbnail anymore. Instead they are using i.4cdn.org and added s before the file type. For example, |
|
Yes, but the official docs still use t.. I've contacted the 4chan devs about this, for now we'll have to wait. |
|
I think that the problem that could be solved by the endpoint now, it's the fact that is impossible to open the images if the thumbnail doesn't load. The images are fine, if you open an image that has it's thumbanil working, and then change to the one with the thumbnail broken, the image load and open without problem, but if you open a thread that doesn't have a single thumbnail working, you will not be able to see any image, since you can't "Open one and change to the one that interest you". A good recommendation for the problem now, and if this happened again in the future, is adding an option on the "reply actions"(The 3 points aside any reply) to open the image directly, without clicking the thumbnail. I mean, not saying it's absolutely necessary, but would be an alternative if this happened again while we wait until 4Chan solve their problems. |
|
Having the blank box where the thumbnail should be be clickable might be a good feature to ease current and future thumbnail chicanery |
|
If all else fails, allowing the user to set the domain for thumbnails at runtime would be a workaround. |

the latest development build reflects this change within the site profile for 4chan. it's posted at https://floens.github.io/Clover/#dev |
|
New build installed and working. Looks like that fixed it.
|
|
Dev build installed, problem solved. Thanks Floens! |
|
Confirming that dev build clears up the issue. Google Pixel XL 1 |
|
Newest dev build fixes the issue |
|
Most recent dev build does in fact fix it. Awesome. |
|
Will the updated main build with the fix be sent out anytime soon? |

v3.0.0 was released, press "Check for updates" in the settings to update! |
|
I'll keep this issue open to avoid people creating new ones. |
|
@floens Still says "Clover is up to date". I'm running v2.3.1 F-Droid. Maybe you need to update the version on the F-Droid site or something...? |
|
To update: |
|
In clover when I checked for updates, it says it's on the latest version. If I manually install the apk, throws an error due to package conflict. I don't want to uninstall and install as there's no backup of filters available |
|
Please read the above text. If you downloaded from f-droid, you'll either have to wait, or uninstall it and install my version. |
|
Oh. I thought GitHub clover and fdriod version were the same 😅On Apr 28, 2018 19:38, Florens <notifications@github.com> wrote:Please read the above text. If you downloaded from f-droid, you'll either have to wait, or uninstall it and install my version.

Thanks for the last update. I can play webms without it interrupting my music now. |

Again for everyone coming from Google, always update your Clover app! |
The recent 4chan crash on April 25, 2018 caused thumbnails to not load and instead show an Error message.
Images aren't broken. If you click on a spoilered image and either click on it or scroll to another image they still load. If you click either the back button or click away from the unspoilered image the app softlocks and there is no way to back out. Thumbnails from threads made before the crash still load their thumbnails.
Android version: 7.0
Phone model: Galaxy S7 Edge
