Crash on disclaimer window on Droid Bionic CM11 about android-imsi-catcher-detector HOT 25 CLOSED

Hi @AoiGhost thanks for your crash report and log it really helps sort these issues out. I have just published a new release which I am hoping will address the problems you reported would you mind testing the latest release to see if everything has been corrected?

I will leave this issue open so you can let me know how it goes.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Still does it with the latest version:

Strangely, I notice in logs a reference to a samsung related class, could that be causing issues given that I'm running a motorola device?

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost Thanks for testing and providing the log, slightly different issue this time regarding the CDMA location updating methods which I have unfortunately not been able to test as I do not own a CDMA device. I am hoping the changes I have made will address this issue for you and allow you to test the app correctly.

I do not want to release a new version as yet because this is really the only change so if you would like to test this again you can download the new version from My dev host and let me know how it goes.

Regarding the Samsung message you have seen in the logcat that is just testing your device to see if it will allow access to the Samsung MultiRil port it should not cause any issues as once it fails to open the required port no further code from these methods will be run.

Now it doesn't even get to the disclaimer. note that it crashes twice on one open attempt, once immediately after the window opens, which closes the window, and then another one a few seconds later after the window closes, all from trying to run the app once.

@AoiGhost, you seem to be the first person having such tremendous problems with our App. Would you please do me the favour and make a NANDROID to try our App on a fresh reflash of your ROM?

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost @SecUpwN No need to backup and do a clean install, although acting a little different the faulting method is the same from the new log posted.

I will disable the method causing issues and post a new version for you to test later tonight when I get home, this won't remove any functionality as it is an additional method to retrieve location information from CDMA devices which actually only operates when location services are active so really does not add any additional value.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost Thanks again for your persistence and patience whilst I get this sorted for you I have removed the calls the method causing problems and it can be found again at my dev host

Please let me know how it goes now this has been removed I believe you are the first with a CDMA device to test and provide feedback so I really appreciate your assistance.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost Yes, it's funny it crashes twice! Most likely because because in it's settings, it is set to stay alive, by default, and thus (probably) restarting as soon as it crashes.
@xLaMbChOpSx I wonder if this is related to my other issue with app refusing to close down, regardless of the "persistence" setting?

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Now it boots, but the GUI usually crashes when trying to download the OpenCellID data. It also does not seem to detect neighbouring cells.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost Would you be able to provide a log of the OpenCellID crash so I can look into that as well.

Regarding the neighbouring cell info both of the framework methods fail on my i9100 and return null but that is mainly due to my phones age. I will look into this tonight as well as looking for anything specific to CDMA devices that I might have overlooked.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@xLaMbChOpSx Neighboring cells info works on my i9100, so it must be another problem. So I think it could be a modem FW (ServiceMode) issue, since we have the same AOS (SlimKAt) and close to same model otherwise. You did mention previously that you have a later modem firmware...and I haven't updated mine yet, since it works.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

I'm not getting neighbouring cells on my GT-i9195 with Android
4.2.2/Baseband i9195XXUBML4 either.

I just downloaded the latest release and it crashes on disclaimer again.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Could you please try to remove all data created by AIMSICD and do a complete fresh install of it, then capture a logcat for us please, @AoiGhost? Thank your for helping us nuking this Issue!

@AoiGhost Hi, I just checked out the log are you sure you are using the latest version because the error is being caused by the CDMA location method that I disabled. I just checked the code to make sure it had not been accidentally re-enabled and it is still commented out.

@xLaMbChOpSx, maybe you should add some code that writes the version of our App into any logcat being created while running AIMSICD? Certainly this would circumvent us walking in the dark..

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

It's on v0.1.18-alpha, I just downloaded it, and this is a clean ROM install.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Hi @AoiGhost sorry I don't know what I did but somehow a call to the method causing the issue was still present, any reference to and the method itself have now been totally removed.

Thanks again for your patience with this and posting of logcats if you would not mind trying the latest release and letting me know how you go that would be awesome.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

No worries, it's all good. The app starts now, still no neighboring cells, but at least it runs. Thanks dude.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Ok thanks for that I will spend some time over the weekend looking into the neighbouring cell info for CDMA devices, sorry you are having so much trouble it is just difficult for me as I don't have a CDMA device. I might keep my eye out for a cheap one and pick up one of possible so I can test on that type of device as well.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost, is your Issue still valid with WIP-Release 0.1.23-alpha or can I close this?

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Still doing it, I'll get a log up.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

@AoiGhost and @AlexHarrowell, would you please compile the current code for yourself and see if this Issue can be closed? If not, please submit the link of a full logcat on PIE BIN here. Thank you.

from android-imsi-catcher-detector.

Confirmed that it works now, even picked up someone doing some strange stuff in Maryland.
