Wifi file transfer crashes after latest update(s?)

Hi all.

I tried sending some files from my device (Samsung J1 (2016), Android 5.1.1), and the wifi transfer app crashed immediately.
It did not crash when it was started 'stand-alone' - as if to receive file/scan QR.

It was just fine a few days ago.

I looked and saw that my TC version was 3.33d.
TC Wifi was in it's latest version (probably because I installed it from play store)

I thought it's a version mismatch - so updated TC to version 3.42d.
This Did not resolve the issue.

Un/Re install both TC / TCWifi - did not resolve the issue.

I found older version of TCWifi in ApkCombo.
Summary of working versions:
3.5 - Works
4.0b2 - works
4.0b3 - Crash
4.0 - Crash
*When installed 'clean' - the first screen with the agreement is shown for all versions.

For now I'll stick with V3.5

Will appreciate a fixed version.


Many thanks in advance.

The problem is probably Android 5.1.1 - I didn't get any crash reports from people with newer Android versions.
I will try to reproduce it in the emulator.

Did you try to send individual files, or entire folders?

I tried to send several files from 'gallery' - and it crashed.
After that - I tried sending a single file from TC itself.
I tried from SD card, and from internal memory.
All crashed.

Please try the new version 4.1 of my WiFi plugin, it should fix the crash on Android 5.1.
