The problem occurs because the previous Tor instance is still using the control port. This is unlikely to happen if Tor starts and stops normally, because the shutdown command takes effect very quickly. But if Briar fails to open the control connection (e.g. due to #1293 or similar bugs), Tor won't exit until a short time after Briar exits, during which time Briar may have been relaunched. I think this could also happen if Briar crashes and is immediately relaunched.https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1312Include user manual in app2022-11-18T17:32:16ZakwizgranInclude user manual in appA user asked for the manual to be included in the app. This was always the plan but it doesn't look like we had a ticket for it.

Unfortunately there's no clue in the stacktrace about where this crash happens.

This comes from an old Briar version and the code in question has changed. The exception is thrown because the author name or password is null, but those values are now stored in the activity rather than the controller, and they're saved and restored on screen rotation. So this bug may already have been fixed. The ticket can be closed if we don't get any more reports.Android 1.1https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1308Configurable colours for text balloons2020-11-18T02:03:46ZakwizgranConfigurable colours for text balloonsA user asked for the ability to change the colours of text balloons.A user asked for the ability to change the colours of text balloons.https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1307Display log file in a reader-friendly way2018-12-19T12:23:22ZmicressorDisplay log file in a reader-friendly wayI miss the possibility to display the Briar logfile in a reader-friendly way.

It looks like both crashes happened after sending and receiving private messages containing emoji, then switching away from the private conversation. In the first crash the switch was to the contact list - in the second crash it's not clear.Android 1.4https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1302Connection chooser rejects connection when retrying adding a contact2021-04-07T16:57:57ZakwizgranConnection chooser rejects connection when retrying adding a contact* Android version: 8.0.0

Notes:
* 10:31:56.933 - At the start of the log the device has made a connection via wifi and it's waiting for data - this might be because the other device hasn't scanned this device's QR code yet.
* 10:32:04.528 - The connection attempt is cancelled and the ConnectionChooserImpl is stopped.
* 10:32:04.533 - The camera is reopened. This is too soon after the previous event to be the result of a manual action.
* 10:32:04.647 - A new connection attempt starts. The BluetoothConnectionLimiter gets a KeyAgreementStoppedListeningEvent when the old key agreement task is stopped, then a KeyAgreementListeningEvent when the new task is started.
* 10:32:04.946 - A connection is made via wifi, but the ConnectionChooserImpl rejects it because it's already been stopped
It looks like the ConnectionChooserImpl instance is being reused, which shouldn't happen. This may mean the KeyAgreementTaskImpl instance is also being reused.https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1301LAN plugin isn't activated when starting wifi hotspot2018-10-03T15:40:05ZakwizgranLAN plugin isn't activated when starting wifi hotspotA user reported that the wifi icon doesn't become green when starting a wifi hotspot while Briar is running, but if the hotspot is started before running Briar, the icon is green.

The phone is connected to wifi, but the IP address is not a LAN address.

Both connecting via Bluetooth and WIFI work fine, but as soon as a contact leaves the local network I can no longer reach him, even though we both have a connection to the Internet.
I did some testing(randomly turning WIFI and the app on and off) and within 2 hours of testing Briar did manage a connection to the Internet(the Internet-icon turned green and the contact was shown as online) once. The things I did prior to it working once were: logged out of Briar ->(closed Briar)-> turned WIFI off -> started Briar -> logged into Briar -> turned WIFI on again. Every time I tried to repeat that, it didn't work once.
