colorpicker-activity should not support implict intents

Open dmfs opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Apparently calling ColorPickerActivtiy with an implicit intent doesn't work as expected on Android 8. We should make sure it's always called explicitly. How many apps support the open intent to pick a color anyway?

This just happened to my device. After installing and removing icsdroid app. Sadly deleting caldav sync data, removing and reinstalling does not fix. Is there a fix or workaround to add a suitable colour picker? Device is Samsung note 9. Android 8. Can send more info if needed. Thanks

We're planning to replace all implicit calls to the color picker with just opening a dialog. That's how dmfs/opentasks#590 was resolved. Using the open intent doesn't seem to be very popular anyway, so you probably won't miss it. This issue occurs when two or more apps on a device use this color picker via intent. If you also installed OpenTasks the upcoming version might fix this issue.
