Description sunwebrw 2017-09-28 05:54:45 UTC

Hi, Manjaro recently updated from version kdeconnect-1.0.3 to kdeconnect-1.2. Finally SMS replies started to work and notifications become usable but i can't send a file from a phone to PC/Notebook anymore. I can send it from PC/Notebook to a phone though. Reverting back to 1.0.3 i can but it loses SMS functionality.
On Android i have the latest available from F-Droid 1.6.6
I've checked that downgrading Android version down to 1.6.3 but keeping PC version 1.2 doesn't restore "File send" functionality. 

What happens:
When i send file from phone to PC it creates a temporary blank file and indicator on both devices says that file is in the process of sending/receiving.

What should happen:
File should've been transferred long ago.

File Send works: PC(1.0.3) + Android(1.6.6)
File Send doesn't work: PC(1.2) + Android(1.6.6)

Ok its strange. I was able to successfully exchange files with the same phone but different systems(notebooks with the same Manjaro x64 and x32) but not with my PC. Creating new user on PC doesn't help, clearing kdeconnect data on the phone doesn't help. Is there anything else i can look at?

Can you please try to reproduce the error with different file sizes? Especially with files smaller and larger than 2kb

Please provide required information.

This is likely caused by a bug in KIO that got fixed in 5.42

Hi. I've recently tried and it worked. The issue was solved after recent(for me atleast) update.
kdeconnect 1.2.1
android kdeconnect 1.6.6
kio 5.42
