Getting help ⛑️

This is an independently maintained fork — the upstream Nextcloud Help Forum and issue tracker are for the Nextcloud app, not Xenia Files, and won't be able to help with anything specific to this fork or to a XeniaCloud account. For support with Xenia Files or your XeniaCloud account, contact XeniaCloud support directly.

Keep in mind that this repository only manages the Android app. Server/backend issues should go through XeniaCloud support, not the Nextcloud project.

Upstream & license 📜

Xenia Files is a rebrand of nextcloud/android, forked under its AGPLv3 license, which permits forking provided Nextcloud's own trademarks and branding are not carried over — the app name, icon, splash screen and accent colors here have been changed accordingly; the underlying code and functionality are otherwise unchanged from upstream unless noted in this fork's own commit history.

All contributions to the upstream repository from 16 June 2016 on are licensed under the AGPLv3 or any later version. See CONTRIBUTING.md and SETUP.md for the general (upstream) development workflow, which this fork continues to follow.

Development version 🔨

This fork is not currently distributed via Google Play, F-Droid, or GitHub Releases. Builds are produced by this repository's own CI (xenia-ci.yml) as unsigned debug artifacts.

Logs

Getting debug info via logcat 🔍

With a linux computer:

• enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
• open command prompt/terminal
• enter adb logcat --pid=$(adb shell pidof -s 'eu.xeniacloud.files') > logcatOutput.txt to save the output to this file

Note: You must have adb installed first!

On Windows:

• download and install Minimal ADB and fastboot
• enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
• launch Minimal ADB and fastboot
• enter adb shell pidof -s 'eu.xeniacloud.files' and use the output as <processID> in the following command:
• adb logcat --pid=<processID> > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt" (This will produce a logcatOutput.txt file in your downloads)
• if the processID is 18841, an example command is: adb logcat --pid=18841 > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt" (You might cancel the process after a while manually: it will not be exited automatically.)
• For a PowerShell terminal, replace %USERPROFILE% with $env:USERPROFILE in the commands above.

On a device (with root) 🔧

• open terminal app (can be enabled in developer options)
• get root access via "su"
• enter logcat -d --pid $(pidof -s eu.xeniacloud.files) -f /sdcard/logcatOutput.txt

or

• use CatLog or aLogcat

Note: Your device needs to be rooted for this approach!
