ionViewDidEnter does not fire when navigating back to tabbed page

[Eraldo]

Bug Report

Ionic version:

[x] 4.x

Current behavior:
When I go navigate from a tabbed page to another page and then use the ion-back-button from there, the tabbed page's ionViewDidEnter method is not triggered.

Video showing the bug live on a different code base:

Expected behavior:

When I click on the back button the ionViewDidEnter method of the tabbed page fires since it has been entered again. (Consistent with non tabbed pages.)

Steps to reproduce:

Issue demo repo: https://github.com/Eraldo/ionic4-tabs-back-issue

1. Clone the repo
2. Make sure the latest ionic version is installed.
3. Run ionic serve.
4. Close the alert which shows on page enter.
5. Click on on the ion button in the content section of the page (tab1 page).
6. On the opened page ("Some" page) click on the back button.
7. Verify that there is no alert showing up anymore.

Hi @Eraldo,

Thanks for opening an issue with. I'm not seeing the content you're describing in your steps to reproduce with the repo you provided. It looks like the base tab starter app. Can you double check to make sure you included the link to the correct repo?

Thanks!

Oh! I forgot to commit before pushing and I already deleted the repo locally. What a pity!
Well I will recreate it today. Thanks for letting me know.

Update: I pushed that the repo: https://github.com/Eraldo/ionic4-tabs-back-issue
Can you please retry. :)

Thanks @Eraldo,

I was able to reproduce the issue using the code you provided. I am going to close this as a duplicate of #16834. We've added that issue to our backlog and hope to have it resolved soon. 🙂

Thanks for using Ionic!
