721649 - Tapping update notification doesn't start update

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Nick Thomas [:nthomas] (UTC+12)]

Steps to reproduce:
1, Install & start the native m-c nightly from the 20th (or later)
2, Load about:nightly (eg by opening the Settings and tapping 'About Nightly')
3, Tap the 'Check for Updates' button
4, Tap on the 'Download & Install...' notification in the lower right

At this point there should be a dialog to confirm you want to update, but that doesn't appear in the broken build. Nothing appears to happen at all except for the notification getting dismissed. I'm testing on a Galaxy Tab 10.1 running Samsung's Android 3.2.

It breaks somewhere between

which is between these two builds:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/2012-01-20-03-11-25-mozilla-central-android/fennec-12.0a1.multi.android-arm.apk

The XUL m-c nightly of the 20th doesn't have this problem, so that seems to exclude toolkit/mozapps/update/ (although there are several changes there), leaving

Same on my Galaxy S2 phone.  I've noticed this for past week or so and have to download nightly builds manually to update.

Updating from the nightly of the 26th worked for me, haven't had a change to look at the changelog yet.

Yes, looks like it's working for me again now too.

Thanks for the updates, please re-open if it happens again.
