Description customercare 2021-04-07 08:46:43 UTC
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Linux:   20.04.1-1
Android: 1.14.2 + 1.16.0

Description of problem:

Since an upgrade from F32 to F33, the F33 laptop can't find nor be found by any android device.

A pinephone running kdeconnect with rawhide can't be found either by the android device.

The rawhide pinephone and the F33 laptop can find and pair itself.

F32 Desktop pc with 20.04.1-1 can find F33 laptop with 20.04.1-1.

The Android 1.16.0 can find F32, but can't find F33+.

All firewalls are down: 

firewalld is inactive
iptables got flushed with -F


A tcpdump on f33 shows in fact connected tcp traffic between those two devices,
on the tcp port, but no sign of the other device.

Some dependency lib seems to cause this, as F32 and F33 are the same build version and behave differently.



I can provide tcpdump logs of networktraffic caused by i.e. "kdeconnect-cli -l" .

For what it's worth, I can't reproduce the problem reported here, it's always worked for me on f33, but I use the plasma kdeconnect gui to do so


May be worth reporting issue upstream to bugs.kde.org

Comment 2 customercare 2021-04-12 17:15:42 UTC
Confirmed Upstream problem.

Pinephoneuser from different Distributions named similar Problems with their KDEConnect and Android.

Opening Bugreport @KDE

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '33'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
