App-breaking issues after update
-
@LordBlizzard Suspected that it wasn't showing there... Get it directly from Vivaldi:
-
@lfisk UpToDown has the same version but Huawei Gallery has the newer one and the main issue - new tab / speed dial crashing the app is indeed resolved there! Many thanks!
Now let's hope the other issues get resolved soon and we're good.
-
@LordBlizzard Cool! and yes, hopefully we see some more fixes soon
FYI in the future... you can use these links or hover them to see what versions they are. I don't have playstore setup... so these are my source for updating the app.
-
@lfisk This has effectively solved the issue for me! Thanks!
-
Are there any updates regarding issue #1 (Speed dial not remebered - VAB-9519) and issue #3 (Dark Mode toggle gone)?
I am now running version 6.8.3388.94
Thank you.

@LordBlizzard
Hi, VAB-9519 is only 6 days old and was not even confirmed, now it is.
The dark mode toggle issue is on the radar of the developer, I guess this will be fixed faster.
You can always ask about the status of a bug report:https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/27450/what-is-the-status-of-vb-already-reported-bug-issue/

@maxdule how do you re-order speed dials on Android? I can only rename or remove a speed dial.
Also, this issue and the missing dark theme toggle are unfortunately still not addressed in versions 6.8.3388.111 and 6.8.3406.3 (Snapshot).
-
This is still broken on version 6.8.3388.111.
It no longer crashes at the start page being displayed, but now does so when opening Settings. There seems to be no way to revert to a clean "no background" option short of deleting all app data. -

Hi, this is really a strange bug, I can choose only an image, all others reset to "no background" .
I guess I opened Settings 15 times today, no crash.
3388.94 worked fine for me.
No idea what that depends on, device, Android version?Cheers, mib
-
@mib2berlin Very strange indeed. I am on Android 14 (Pixel 8 Pro - July Update).
If I use the "Customize Start Page" option in the Start Page itself, I can set a custom background just fine (though not any of the Vivaldi-provided ones), though the app will still crash when trying to access Settings. Clearing all app data (reverting to stock settings) does temporarily resolve the issue until a Start Page background is set, but that also means having to reconfigure all the Vivaldi settings again.

Hey @LordBlizzard sorry for the confusion - it's not reordering on Android specifically, but reordering in folders list as they seem to be displayed as is. So I place the "mobile" folder (speed dial group) above.
Ok, but where do you do this? In Vivaldi Android bookmark manager?
-
@maxdule
Hi, I can reproduce this, can you report this to the bug tracker, please?
I can confirm this internally.
Change speed dial order, update sync on desktop, update sync on mobile, open settings > crash.For information on how to report a bug, see this URL: https://help.vivaldi.com/article/report-a-bug-in-vivaldi-android/
Once that is done, please share the bug number (beginning with VAB-). Thanks.
On the form, you can add your email address. Once submitted, you'll get a confirmation. You can reply to this with any logs or further info.Cheers, mib

It works for me, I sort it on the desktop and the default speeddial on Android changed.
I'm so happy the headache is gone.Thanks! -
@maxdule
Ah, this is maybe a old bug in combination of a new one.
I report this folder bug some time ago, it jump always to the speed dial even you are in a sub folder.
I will try to link them together and hope both gets fixed at some point + add the information about the folder issue to VAB-9519.Cheers, mib
-
Dark Theme toggle is finally back! Thank you.
Now remembering last used speed dial and search issue remain.
-
Since the search issue was finally resolved, only remembering last used speed dial remains. I just updated to 6.8.3388.230 but it's not fixed yet. It's also not resolved in Snaphot 6.9.3446.3 (though I don't know if that's any indicator).
Is anyone able to look up the bug status? Is there a fix date?
Thank you.
After this is resolved I think I'll disable all updates...

@LordBlizzard
Hi, this one is still in progress, I hope we get this into the next stable.
It make Groups useless.
I add a comment to the bug tracker.Cheers, mib
