unknown18358yI can reproduce it on a Samsung note 4. It occurs when I tap on the space between the hamburger from devRant and the back button of my phone.
-
@dfox more like hit them at the same time. Managed to reproduce it 10 times before i screenshoted it to make sure
-
dfox426098y@jckimble interesting... so what are you like actually hitting? Like do you know what press is being registered?
-
@dfox the back button is probably whats registering. What i figure is happening is a race condition where the settings are loading slower than the back button is being registered. Give me a second and I'll install a logcat app to see what it says

deMark4258yI just tried this on my Nexus 5X, got the grey screen by pressing menu button plus back button at the same time.
Of course the back button is on the bottom left of my screen so this wouldn't come up in normal usage... -
deMark4258yMore thoroughly, this seems to only come up when sitting on the feed screen. When on stories or notifs, I can't reproduce it the same way.
On the other hand I can consistently reproduce this now with the feed screen now. I guess on Samsung phones with the placement of the back button in the right, his could come up more often. -
@dfox ok this is really wierd its confirmed that the back button is being registered but other than that its not showing any activity being called so its got to be a race condition between unregistering the old activity and the back button is canceling the loading activity. I'll see if its an issue with any other apps using appcelerator

dfox426098yThanks everyone! I was able to reproduce. Probably just a race condition with how we handle tabs, I'll work on fixing it for our next release.
-
Pretty much choosing any tab and navigating back right after seems to reproduce it.
-
Man, I wish my clients were half as helpful as this community, in assisting with debugging. Good stuff everyone.

deMark4258y@iLikeToast I was bored on the bus :) what I did find interesting though was that it was under an hour to flag/identify/reproduce the bug and dfox is prob already thinking about how to fix it :)
Got a bug, tap between the menu button and back button to replicate @dfox
