Apps-android-commons: Switching to/from night mode causes crash on Nearby tab

[tmutimer]

Summary:

Toggling the night mode on or off, then navigating back to the nearby screen causes the map to not display properly. Tapping the List button then causes a crash.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open the nearby tab.
2. Open the sidebar and go to settings
3. Toggle once the night mode option
4. Go back to nearby.
   ::DEFECT map does not show up. small white square region shows instead in top-right corner.
5. Press list button
   ::DEFECT app crashes

It appears this occurs in NearbyParentFragment.getNearbyMapFragment() - in this method the view and animation variables remain null when the map fragment is reused.

Device and Android version:

Oneplus 5
Android 9
Stock OxygenOS 9.0.9

Commons app version:
2.12.0-debug-master

@neslihanturan can I work this issue?

Hi @gouri-panda , We are about to merge a refactor branch of nearby(#3322 ). This issue should not happen any more. I would recommend you to wait for a few days (until that branch is merged) and if the issue still persists, you can surely pick that up :).

[ashishkumar468]

Assigning this to myself to avoid future confusion.

[gouri-panda]

@ashishkumar468 Sure

[ashishkumar468]

This has been resolved #3322, closing this one.
