[BUG] Problems with barcode scanning and data collection

[Minaella]

Describe the bug
I transferred data (Field Book apps, files) from Galaxy Tab A7 Lite to another via Smart Switch (I've done it before with other tablets and everything works). When I tried to use the new A7 it crashes every time I try to scan a barcode it shuts down, after that I can't collect any more data, every time I go to collect , it closes instantly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'Collect'
2. Field book closes

Expected behavior
Be able to scan the barcode and go directly to the desired plot and collect data

Device Info (please complete the following information):

• Model: Galaxy Tab A7 Lite
• OS:
• Field Book Version 5.2.5

Hi @Minaella
I think this issue will be fixed in 5.3. Until then, if you export the database (Settings > Database) from your old tablet and import it into the new tablet, are you able to use Field Book?

If you upload or email me the file I can check it out to see what the issue is. We don't have a set deadline on v5.3 but will hopefully have a beta out soon.

Closing this for now. If this issue reoccurs in 5.3 it can be reopened.
