I can't get OpenHAB Android 3.9.0 nor 3.10.0 to show the Main UI in remote mode (using OpenHAB 4.1.1).

While it shows the Main UI in local mode (note the Wifi symbol in the upper right corner):

The same thing looks empty once I turn of Wifi and go into the remote mode:

As far as I can tell, OpenHAB Android is able to retrieve and use the sitemap. It's "just" the Main UI that does not show.

The Android log of the habdroid app also does not look suspicious (at least, to me):

I am able to remotely access the Main UI via myopenhab.org, fwiw.

Is this a known issue? How can I fix it?

You you open home.myopenhab.org in a browser on your phone over mobile data?

Yes, home.myopenhab.org works on the same device.

Correction, I just had the issue on the Smartphone. Directly entering home.myopenhab.org showed a blank page. After I signed in on myopenhab.org and clicked "Click here to access your openHAB's dashboard", I was able to visit home.myopenhab.org. Closing the tab, and entering home.myopenhab.org also showed the expected page afterwards.

Can you try https://github.com/openhab/openhab-android/releases/tag/3.10.2-beta and capture the log via adb while opening MainUI via mobile data?

I've installed 3.10.2-beta and are unable to reproduce this behavior. However, the OpenHAB App from Play Store still exhibits the faulty behavior.

I noticed that when I enter home.myopenhab.org in a browser, I usually a login page presented, but sometimes I remember seeing a HTTP basic auth dialog. I think I remember dismissing the basic auth dialog leads to an empty page presented.

That made me wonder that it may be possible that the webview of the OpenHAB Android App may also somehow entered this stale state.

So I reset the Android App by deleting all of its data (not just the cache) and configured the App again. Since then, I can not longer trigger the faulty behavior.

Not sure if this should be closed though, as the underlying issue is probably not fixed.

Clear WebView cache

Use the existing 'Clear image cache' setting, rename it and move it to the trouble shooting section.

It might help in some situations, like openhab#3601

Maybe clearing the Webview cache would have fixed the issue for you: #3605

I noticed that when I enter home.myopenhab.org in a browser, I usually a login page presented, but sometimes I remember seeing a HTTP basic auth dialog.

The app always sends the credentials, so this shouldn't be an issue.

FWIW, I just ran into this again after updating openhab from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2. clearing the cache in the app resolved this. However it would be more user friendly if this manual step wasn't required. Actually, I am not even sure what the root cause is.

Did you have a similar issue in a desktop browser when updating openHAB server?

I observed quite the same issue, the app did not display the Main UI (app version 3.12.0; Main UI set as start page). Clearing cache inside the app did not help, but deleting data and cache of the app from Android settings and setting up the server connection again made it work.
