Solver takes long time to start when the reception is bad

Post by Ovec »

Hey, hello!
I noticed this issue repeatedly in the past years of using this great app.

When I'm in a location with really bad reception, phone thinks there is some internet connection but there isn't really (it usually show like 1 bar of EDGE in the middle of a forest), Solver takes ages to start. It just hangs on the empty "listing" screen until there's some kind of timeout and then it finally starts.
I usually just disable data and it starts immediately, but then I forget to turn them on. :-)

Why is that? I don't really mind if there's some kind of telemetry, but could it at least do it in background without blocking the entire app?

Thanks!

The old version has a lookup to my server for some cache description files. I tried to implement some features, but it was never finished and i forgot to remove that call. I think i removed it at some point from the beta-version.
