Can't add new ICS based Calendar on Android 8.0

XiS

Hey there,

I’m a first time user of your app, installed it and tried to add an ICS based calendar. Unfortunatly I got a toast message saying the app didn’t have the correct permission to add the new calendar. I verified that I’d given all permissions to the app, still no dice.

Took a quick dive in the ADB logging to see what’s wrong. Relevant logging can be found in this paste. Maybe this is the problem?

Kind regards,

XiS

Hello,

Thanks for the report.

Probably. CalendarListActivity checks for both permissions, but AddCalendarActivity only checks for WRITE_CALENDAR and EditCalendarActivity only checks for READ_CALENDAR.

Hey IMF,

Wow, thanks for the quick response time! Don’t know when a fix will be available, but I’ll just monitor this thread for changing tags ;).

Kind regards,

Should be fixed with https://gitlab.com/bitfireAT/icsdroid/commit/5a57507e0a3990af850324a78606833ca8f47daf and ICSdroid 1.5.7, which I just have released.

Can you confirm that the problem is fixed with ICSdroid 1.5.7?
