1181866 - QR code reader crashes Firefox on Nexus 5

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1182220

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Awesomescreen, defect)

Description

[Lawrence Mandel [:lmandel] (use needinfo)]

Nightly consistently appears to crash (still listed in app manager) when I select the QR icon in the awesomebar. I get the message "Unfortunately, CAA has stopped." Note that CAA is the app for the Canadian version of AAA.

Nightly 42.0a1 2015-07-08
Nexus 5 Android 5.1.1

Can you attach a video of this? I'm trying to understand when exactly the crash occurs.

CAA app on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=a.envisionmobile.caa&hl=en

Thanks for the video. One last question: Do you have the Barcode Scanner app (by ZXing) installed on your phone?

No, I didn't. Installing it causes Android to prompt me to complete the action with CAA or Barcode Scanner. Looks like CAA is crashing in this case.

With both apps installed, when CAA crashes I am returned to Fennec at the awesomescreen. When only CAA is installed (and it is therefore the default intent handler),  when CAA crashes I am returned to the Android homescreen.

Can you pull down the commit below and tell me if you still have this issue? (I wasn't able to reproduce it, as I need a Canadian Play Store account to download the CAA app).

This Try build might be easier to get:

You can download and test with this apk: http://d.pr/f/12sTl

Same results with the build linked in comment 10 as I reported in the description.

Is it possible for you to get a log via ADB?

Comment 13

[Karim Benhmida [:karim]]

I just tested and realized that I gave you the wrong build (I probably wasn't in the right commit when I packaged). Anyway, try with this one : http://d.pr/f/19wAD
I've been able to download the CAA app and test, and this build fixes it for me (You shouldn't see the QR code icon unless you have the ZXing barcode scanner).

This bug would occur because CAA registers as a QR code reader. Fixed by Bug 1182220 - QR Code reader should only support ZXing barcode scanner.
