Resolved Recorder app keeps crashing (2.0.100 Stable by xiaomi.eu) on Nuwa

[poweruser44]

Recorder app version: 6.1.39 package name: com.android.soundrecorder

"Feedback says;"

"java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.io.File.<init>(File.java:288)
at n2.e.b(Unknown Source:61)
at com.android.soundrecorder.z.x(Unknown Source:199)
at com.android.soundrecorder.z.i(Unknown Source:0)
at com.android.soundrecorder.z$a.run(Unknown Source:4)"

if possible i need a fix soon... i must use the recorder for something...

Fixes tried:

wiping cache from twrp - didn't help
wiping app's cache - didn't help

workaround for now - go to the recorder app and try your best to tap to the record button as fast as possible - then when the app crashes it still keeps on recording anyways...

Oh don't worry, I read bug reports, doesn't mean I always have something to respond. We can't reproduce your crash.
Good bye, poweruser44.

Thanks for your reply, but I also upgraded my phone system through PC, and the problem was not solved from version 104 to 105.

hmm... maybe try a factory reset? in my case the problem went away on its own

This is where my phone got weird. I tried a factory reset on version 104 and the recorder worked fine for the first few days.But after a few days it suddenly started crashing again.Today I updated to version 105 and there was no change.

The only thing you seem to have in common in using German display language.
The issue might have something to do with German translation.

 

[Igor Eisberg]

Confirmed that it's a German translator mistake. Fixed for next release:

don't translate · berlinux2016/HyperOS-2.0@c9a2257

Contribute to berlinux2016/HyperOS-2.0 development by creating an account on GitHub.

github.com

However, there is no way to remove the recording with the invalid file name without root, so clearing Recorder app data is necessary.

Thank you. But I tried changing the system language to English, but it didn't work. Looking forward to @poweruser44's reply.

Yup, see my second reply above. A file with invalid name was already created, which corrupts the list of recordings.

@MeiGuddet In this reply:

New - HyperOS 2.0 Call Records not in 24hour format

The call recordings on HyperOS 2.0.3.0 mondrian are now in 12 hour format. the 24 hour format ist gone. for example the time 14:05 it is displayed as 2:05 PM.

xiaomi.eu

Kacper advised to remove the "aaa" and change "hh" to "HH" to avoid the AM/PM, not change the whole format.
When you saw "hh.mm" in the original string (rather than "hh:mm") that should have raised an eyebrow.
