SUMMARY Desktop SMS application becomes unresponsive after sending message(s) and then close and open again. Either the "waiting" icon keeps running without sending or it is impossible to even get focus to the input field so that typing is impossible. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open KDE Connect SMS 2. Send message 3. Close KDE Connect SMS 4. Open KDE Connect SMS OBSERVED RESULT After the second use, the application is unresponsive. EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: kdeconnectd-21.04.3-1.fc35.x86_64 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I use Android with Pixel 3a phone.
I have the same issue, loading/sending SMS with the main UI has not worked for a while now, though replies via the notification in KDE do work. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro x64 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 KDEConnect: 22.12.3
I can still send SMS via cli with *kdeconnect-cli --destination ###-###-#### -n 'DEVICENAME' --send-sms "MESSAGE"*.
Odin, it does not sound like you are having the same problem as this report. This report specifically describes opening the SMS app, which works, then closing and re-opening the app, after which it does not work. You seem to be saying that the app never works for you. Please check for other related bugs (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468602, maybe?) Garry, are you still able to produce this issue? I do not see this behavior. On the second open of the app, it loads instantly, and I am able to browse conversations, read old messages, and send messages.
I see, I was mostly going at keywords gleamed here and there. I've had the issue Garry has had, but so rarely. Withdrawing.

Just tested again and same result. After re-opening the SMS application, I cannot type in another message. Furthermore, I see a message on my phone: "This paired device is not reachable. Make sure it is connected to your same network." The SMS application works until closing and reopening on my KDE desktop. kdeconnectd-23.04.0-1.fc38.x86_64 kde-connect-libs-23.04.0-1.fc38.x86_64 kde-connect-23.04.0-1.fc38.x86_64
