Notifications disappear after update to 4.5.1

Post by Alfhw »

Hi,
before updating to 4.5.1 there were 2 epim notifications left (old calendar event not yet completed) in my notification bar of Android. After updating 4.5.1 they immediately disappear. Didn't happens before in previous updates. What's even strange is that after creating a new calendar event they both reappear, just immediately after I tapped the tick/check button (the one in the upper right) in the "new appointment" screen.

Will you be able to reproduce that with the newly created events with notifications? If yes, what would be the steps?

I'm not sure to understand what you mean but to reproduce that I would need a new epim version download from Google Play Store.
The steps were:
1) having some epim notifications left on Android notification bar
2) download and install new epim version from Google Play Store (4.5.1 in my case)
3) right after installation of new version the 2 epim notifications immediately disappear from Android notification bar.
4) after creating a new calendar event they both reappear, just immediately after I tapped the tick/check button in the "new appointment" screen.

Okay, I see now, thanks. The only way to test that out would be to update from one version to another. Will keep that in mind when working on the 4.5.2 version update.

It's 5 MB but you can upload the file to some online storage service like Google Drive and forward me the shared download link to it. Thanks.

1)Icons of Android shortcuts change images after update (sec 1.27-1.32) viewtopic.php?f=46&t=18608 and
2)Calendar recurrence reminders bug (sec. 11-15) viewtopic.php?f=46&t=18461 It's a old bug that sometimes comes out.

Hi,
right after installation of 4.6 notifications disappear again but this time after 3-4 seconds their reappear automatically. So seems fixed.
Thanks
