Chat is not updated
Steps to reproduce
sometimes the chat screen doesn't refresh messages.
Expected behaviour
chat updated
Actual behaviour
chat not updated
The issue happened another time after https://github.com/nextcloud/talk-android/pull/3147 was merged. So reopening as there must be more scenarios that trigger this bug.
i guess somehow long-polling is interrupted because lookIntoFuture is false. Want to simplify the pullChatMessages logic in the long term..
My question here; if an external signaling server is available, would it not make sense to make use of that to trigger pulling of new messages? Use long-polling as a fallback only, in case external signaling isn't available. Presumably, that could be done using the same connection that is used for the "{user} is typing..." messages.
yes long polling should only be a fallback when external signaling server is available. Handling of many signaling messages still needs to be implemented (https://github.com/nextcloud/talk-android/issues/2816)
I vote for this. Quite annoying, that new messages are not updated and chat has to be reopened.

I am running 19.0.0 RC4
We are going to make huge changes for the chat in the next months (offline support). So we might not invest time to fix the "old" code but hopefully come up with a much better version that will fix it by the way..
