929488 - Unable to select an application to complete the intent handling from the helper apps dialog prompt

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Bug 780379 provided a way to prompt a user to complete an intent to launch an application in a helper app dialog. Currently, one is not able to actually select an application – that is, nothing happens when I tap the shortcut in the dialog.

To reproduce (this example will attempt to handle the audio/x-scpls (pls, playlist) format commonly used on the internet for storing multimedia playlists):

i) Visit http://bassdrive.com and select the '128k' option on the top right

E/GeckoConsole( 7125): Sending: {"type":"Intent:GetHandlers","mime":"audio/x-scpls","action":"","url":"http://bassdrive.com/v2/streams/BassDrive.pls","packageName":"","className":""}

ii) 'Complete action using' dialog prompts up with 'Download' and 'Google Play Music'. Tap either one; nothing happens.

This demo page works fine for me. The apps on my device won't play it, but Chrome finds the same two apps and has the same problem.
