To be clear, as I realize I wasn't, I can send files from it if I use the pull-down option in the notification to send files so long as it's running in the background and connected to my computer. I can't do it through the main UI as it crashes before the option shows up. (Computer runs Kubuntu 22.04.) I've experienced this bug today, for the first time, after last update (v1.32.4) from google play App crashes when detecting/detected by kdeconnect installed on my Debian stable (In reply to Francesco from comment #2) > I've experienced this bug today, for the first time, after last update > (v1.32.4) from google play > > App crashes when detecting/detected by kdeconnect installed on my Debian > stable I'm using KDE connect on Android 14 Same here with version 1.32.3 from F-Droid (released 2 days ago). Downgrading to 1.32.2 fixes the issue. Android 14. Same issue on a Google Pixel 9 Pro Sorry to ask but what is the recommended way to downgrade? Can I do it from play store? Same here on Pixel 7A Android 14 : 1.32.3 crashed when updated. I tried to remove both cache and data, and I could run it. Once paired with my computer, it immediately said that the device is unavailable (not in same network). After a few interactions it crashed again. Downgrading to 1.32.2 fix this.

Not sure this is possible with play store. I use f-droid and at the bottom of each page application you can choose which version you want. As using both f-droid and play store is totally possible (I do it since years), I would recommend you to use f-droid for all FOSS applications. Created attachment 174399 [details]
Crash log
Here is a quick crashlog attached
Still crashes, KDE connect 1.32.4 on Android 14. Workaround is to disable "receive remote keypress" plugin. I'm also experiencing this problem (v1.32.3, Android 14) Does not happen on 1.32.2 Can reproduce on Android 14 (LineageOS 21) in versions 1.32.3 (F-Droid) and 1.32.4 (Play Store). Downgrading to 1.32.1 confirmed to work. Disabling "receive remote keypresses" plugin confirmed to work around the issue at least in 1.32.3.

Disabling > "receive remote keypresses" plugin confirmed to work around the issue at > least in 1.32.3. thanks, workaround also works for me Same issue for me on a Galaxy S21. Note : it crashes only when computers on the wlan/lan are running the Linux KDEconnect application. The application does not crashes if there are no peers on the network. I don't know if it's related, but after last update and with the workaround applied I see problems on sharing from PC to App an url if I try to run kdeconnect-cli -d $id --share $url the command returns 0, so works but on the device didn't see anything notification, only after a ping from the device the sharing of a content successfully done (but without notification).

The workaround : > Disabling > "receive remote keypresses" plugin confirmed to work around the issue at > least in 1.32.3. works. the problem seems solved in 1.32.5 can I use kdeconnect app with "receive remote keypresses" plugin enabled without crash. But I don't know if now this plugin works correctly |
