Hello all,
I just updated IceCatMobile (from version 45.7.0) via F-Droid, but now I can't use it at all. It's a pity, since it's my only browser installed.
My smartphone is a Sony Xperia M2 (D2303) running Android 4.4.4 on stock rom, never rooted nor unlocked.
As soon as I launch it from its icon on the home, or it is recalled by any link or app, it immediately crashes.
Message appears: "IceCatMobile stopped working" before any window opens.
Trying to revert to previous version by means of F-Droid proved impossible as it always fails installing it. :-(
I tried emptying the cache, both from Settings>Applications>IceCatMobile>Delete Cache, or using Cache Cleaner, and wiping cache partition.
I also tried stopping almost every other services and apps, but nothing changes.
I have a lot of free space (more than 2 GB) on both internal and external memory.
Oh, IceCatMobile was and is installed on the SD like every other apps I have which offered this opportunity to be moved there.
On my other devices running Android 4.4.4 (anorher identical Xperia, and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 and a 3), I preferred not to update it yet, waiting for a solution from the Community for this bug.
