Android logs

I took a test photo, waited for a while and then searched the logcat output for relevant information. This is what I found. I hope it's useful since I'm not an expert in interpreting these logfiles.

Server error logs

Additional information

My custom ROM is ProjectMatrixx v11.2.5.
Auto upload worked more or less reliably until the latest update.
I also noticed that the list of previous uploads suddenly shows dates from December 1969 for all the uploaded files.
Might be the same issue as in #16333.

Same issue on Galaxy S24.

The issue is still present in the recent update. Some folders get uploaded perfectly fine tho not the camera roll.

Same problem here on Galaxy S25 Ultra, no new photos uploaded from last 2 updates.

Updated to 3.35.2 and some pictures were uploaded... Some not. Galaxy S24.

[endyb66]

3.35.2 / Camera Roll still not uploading. Pixel 9a.

[slepkaviba]

It is even worse... Some files just upload as 0...

I get "server reported size 1.9 MB but size was 0" error...

unfortunately this is broken since a long time: #15291

the workaround is to reinstall from scratch (uninstall, install, setup autoupload) after an update: #15291 (comment)

Interesting. For me auto upload used to work until the update to 3.35.0 got installed via F-Droid. My setup with custom folders survived several updates so it seems I was never affected by this bug. I will try the workaround anyway and reinstall from scratch when I find the time to.

Same here, worked up until the update to 3.35.0. As a dev by myself I appreciate all the effort that goes into this app, but how can such a core function be broken for such a long time? Is it a platform issue?
