Steps to reproduce

open app, make a new folder in any directory = crash

Minimal reproduction project (MRP)

as i was writting this i tried to export and it just keeps crashing when i open the app so yeahhh.
i tried to compress but the file ended up being 75 mb so i uploaded it to mediafire idk if thats ok or not but heres the link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/0h64m0ww464ygay/MRP.zip/file

Adding into this. i just downloaded this version v4.3.beta2.official [b75f048] and it seems to work fine. i dare say this version feels faster than the other one i stated. .

Tested on a Google Pixel 7a and I can't reproduce the crash. But I do see that creating a new folder trigger a rescan of all files in the FileSystem dock. That sounds like #94416.

Maybe the crash in your end is because your phone is less powerful and rescanning/reimporting 3D meshes might be too heavy for the GPU?

Might be im going to check if it happens in a new project without 3d characters

following up i have record both versions 4.3.2 and 4.3.3. i also had a recording of version 4.3.3 with a project with no files but that one was too large for github. to sumorise that video it worked flawlessly as expected so nothing interesting.

Here is the video of version 4.3.2

in the video you can see how its running smoothly and the new folder was added quickly.

Here is the video of version 4.3.3

i wasnt able to screen record the loading process because of file sizes (both videos were the same lenght but this one was 26 mbs... idk how) but it shows the app crashing for no reason. in both videos it was the same project which means its aproblem in 4.3.3 and after reading #94416 it might be connected. I believe my phone is capable to run the app so its a problem built in the newer version.

Could you test this build from #94691?
https://github.com/godotengine/godot/actions/runs/10074692377/artifacts/1734400150

This should include an apk of the Android editor which you can sideload on your phone manually.

It should solve the problem of always reimporting files on any filesystem operation, which would be a duplicate of #94416.

What I'm still unsure of is why this reimport triggers a crash in your case. The crash might be a different bug, and might be reproducible in the "fixed" build or 4.3.beta2 if you delete the .godot folder to force a full reimport. Could you test that?

i have tried the build you sent me and it works now theres no crashes. it loads smoothly and deletes smoothly. changing folder names reloads without a problem. i also tried what you said about deleting the .godot file to force a reload of the full project and it realoaded with no problems whatsoever. conclusion the new build works.

im not sure either why it would crash in my case. but i think it might be a problem with he reloading getting into a loop which just crashes it But im not sure

Thanks for testing! I'll close this as duplicate of #94416 and thus resolved by #94691.

The crash is worked around but the root cause for it might not be fixed yet. We'll have to see when fixing #94416 properly if we understand what could cause a crash on reimport.
