@tobiasKaminsky can we get this release please? :) It only fixes two issues, I know...but....the share type issue is the number 1 crash for the 3.3.0 release, so I think it would be nice to get this released since we already got this reported again even after the fix has been done but unfortunately not release yet :/

[tobiasKaminsky]

There is also a bug when Client is created on main thread, when entering Notification.
I'll have a look into this now and try to find a fix.
Then we can include this also.

[AndyScherzinger]

approved the PR :+1:

[tobiasKaminsky]

Backport is in #3154, after that I'll create a RC1 as I am not 100% if the fix is correct, as I cannot reproduce the error.

[AndyScherzinger]

Merged, since codacy is is also not a fan of non-master-targeting PRs... :/

[AndyScherzinger]

RC1 PR is #3156, todos have been updated

[tobiasKaminsky]

RC1 is released

[tobiasKaminsky]

RC2 needs this: https://github.com/nextcloud/android/pull/3114
Fix in #3154 seems to be ok.

[AndyScherzinger]

3154 has already been merged so RC2 could be released

[AndyScherzinger]

3169 - 3.3.1 RC2

[tobiasKaminsky]

We should also include some kind of redo of the device credentials stuff.
Seems to be broken for quite a lot people.
(I will investigate further tomorrow)

[AndyScherzinger]

Sweet, sure thing. CI still isn't able to fetch all dependencies I guess some repo has issues, so we have to wait anyways :/

[AndyScherzinger]

CI is working again and as far as I can see, all fixes have been merged except for a potential, still to be implemented fix for device credentials.

[tobiasKaminsky]

I'll want to do RC2 today and on Monday/Tuesday 3.3.1 final, if no big issues occur.
Fingerprint is a tough one and I do not want to delay 3.3.1.
When fingerprint is working, we can do a quick 3.3.2.

[tobiasKaminsky]

3.3.1 RC2 is released, stable is planned for Monday/Tuesday.
