Mobile client on Android does not synchronize

Facing the same issue lately, starting from the most recent NC app update on my phone.

My setup below:

Nextcloud Server Version 28.0.4
PHP Version: 8.2
Server Operating System: RaspiOS Bookworm, self hosted
Nextcloud Desktop Client: 3.12.3 on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Nextcloud Android Client: 3.28.1 from F-Droid store
DAVx5 Version: 4.3.15-ose (403150004) from F-Droid store
Android Version: 13 on Fairphone 3 Device

Trying to trobleshoot this myself, I note that the files is shown as syncronized in the Android client (automatically or if synced manually from the … file item menu) but:

  • /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/com.nextcloud.client/[myuserfolder]/[sub-path]/[document.ext]: contains an old version with old filestamp
  • /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/com.nextcloud.client/tmp/[myuserfolder]/[sub-path]/[document.ext]: note the tmp in the path - contains the most updated version with updated filestamp.

Manually moving from the tmp folder to the proper one works it around until next sync. It looks like the sync process is not completed in the last step (from tmp to the proper folder.

Posted in this bug thread as well.

Thanks!
