Nexus 5X isn't compatible?

[Hund]

According to F-droid this launcher isn't compatible with Nexus 5X. But I tried installing it anyway and it just crashes if I try to use it.

How come the Nexus 5X isn't supported? :)

[fandreuz]

It's compatible, F-Droid Repository isn't updated. You can be sure only with Play Store

[Hund]

Ah! Then I'll wait. :) I dont have Play Store or any Google service on my phone.

It's listed as not compatible, because it requires commons-io as a native lib -- so all devices are listed as incompatible Most likely due it being in libs instead of app/libs.

[Hund]

I see. But, I'm not sure I totally understand though. Why didn't you include the lib if it's a required dependency?

I don't own the fdroid repo. It's not me. Someone can send me a link to the repository?

While I dont "own" the repo, I added the build. It will be removed today, until I got it building and working fine.

@Hund: We strip binary files and replace them. Either we build them from source (like we did with CompareString) or we pull them from a trusted repostiory (in the case for commons-io mavenCentral). However, the build crashes on my CM13 device even with no modification applied. I will need some time to look into it and provide a logcat later.

@krt16s sorry for my ignorance about f-droid, but I didn't understand. What did you do?

[licaon-kter]

@krt16s confirmed crash see #4

Not sure how to get https://github.com/Andre1299/CompareString pulled at build time though, tried https://jitpack.io but no joy.

Sorry for being unavailable for some days..exams are going on :) I will have a closer look at your changes tonight, retry the build locally and if it still fails, get you some logcats.

For me the build works now. Tested this on Android4, 5 and 6. On Android6 the app crashes because it does not ask for permissions (prior those were granted on installation, on Android6 permissions have to be requested at runtime): I have to workaround that by allowing permissions manually.

Edit: Also tested on an actual device running CM13/Android6.

[fandreuz]

The app shouldn't crash, it opens the Settings page where you can grant the permissions. Can you send me a log?

[ghost]

Oh, it does open the app info page, indeed, but still displays a message of being shut down. No indication that I should grant permission. So most likely it's "fixed" but the fix/workaround itself is not self-explanatory :) Anyway, attached the logfile from an Android6 emulator.

@krt16s The latest commit doesn't crash. But I updated it two days ago. You can find the build here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-3mPrdQkEHQQUFNNFllQU5ybW8

I used ae55d1a for the testing. This is the latest commit I see in this repo.

[licaon-kter]

I just compiled it, on first start it switched to the app info asking for permissions, that I granted, but it worked fine after that (on 6.0.1).

[ghost]

The difference from the latest commit here and the file posted is the message that popsup when no permission have been granted. ae55d1a looks like a crash, the apk posted above informs the user to change permission.
