1166837 - reset contacts after sending sms

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1190613

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::SMS, defect)

Description

[an]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:37.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0
Build ID: 20150420225811

Steps to reproduce:

Open Contact, select a contact for sending SMS, send the SMS and press Home. Opening Contacts again shows the last SMS page


Actual results:

Opening Contacts again shows the last SMS page.


Expected results:

I would expect that opening Contacts again after ANY action derived from previously using it, would show the contacts, not the last action (context). IMO the context is irrelevant, one opens Contact not to be reminded why he/she opened it last time but to perform a new action, there's no way of telling that the user wants to repeat the last action so why preserve it.

Hey Jenny, how do you feel about closing the activity if user presses home, but only if the user sent at least one message ?

Hey Julien,

I think it's reasonable to close the activity if user presses Home after sending out message from Contact. Thanks!

Part of the issue here is that I'm not sure we can distinguish the user pressing home from the user merely displaying the task manager (for example).

I think we should do the code that listen for visibilitychange event and ask Jenny before landing.

Right, it's not possible to replicate on B2G, I think you'll need a device.

Alternatively you can try to return sensible values from the functions in MessageManager, so that you can at least display what is supposed to be displayed.

Or you can try using the emulator (_not_ the simulator), but that's quite time-consuming.

Does it mean this page: http://i.imgur.com/F3iruvl.png  ?

When i open contact, i get this page.


If this is the issue, then i think it's fine, if it is showing this page. Page is belong to Contact app and activity started from contact app.

Also as per description, i am not agree with the expected result reported. i.e... 

"I would expect that opening Contacts again after ANY action derived from previously using it, would show the contacts, not the last action (context). IMO the context is irrelevant, one opens Contact not to be reminded why he/she opened it last time but to perform a new action, there's no way of telling that the user wants to repeat the last action so why preserve it."

Home button in FxOS doesn't kill the app, it simply goes to homescreen, and if that app is tapped again, then last page of that is shown, which is obvious. In this case also, last page of contact app is shown.

What you would say Julienw ?  

(Btw i have a feeling that this bug,what user reported is already fixed.)

Thanks

As rishav found out, it was fixed by bug 1190613.

An, please tell us if this works better for you !
