Stuck in synchronization loop (Android) (lemmy.ml)

Got a new phone (Pixel 4, DivestOS) & trying to sync my notes via Joplin Cloud. It grabbed older notes ok, but seems to be stuck in an infinite syncing loop & never gets notes from the last ~6 months...

Here's what I've done

  • Downloaded Joplin from F-Droid -> logged in to Joplin Cloud -> Added encryption master password -> synced. Result: old notes are there, new notes are not, infinite sync loop
  • Uninstalled Joplin
  • Reinstalled Joplin from F-Droid -> logged in to Joplin Cloud -> synced (older notes come in, newer notes do not) -> Added encryption master password -> synced. Nothing new arrives but I get an infinite sync loop

My notes are all present on desktop. I don't know what to do next! Advice is greatly appreciated!

Joplin app version

Joplin Mobile 3.1.2 (prod, android)

Client ID: ######### Sync Version: 3 Profile Version: 47 Keychain Supported: No

Revision: 8d8cca06e

Thanks a lot for the help. I tried it all but no luck. I also realized that Fdroid uses a pre-release version of Joplin - so I downgraded to the latest on the GitHub and then repeated all of these tests/suggestions but still no change.

I've reached out to the devs via a GitHub issue. Hope that helps. Thanks again!!!

That sounds very tedious, but in some way every failed solution narrows down the list of possibile causes :P

Do keep us updated, if you want. And you might help the peeps on GitHub by trying out different mobile devices or sync methods, if you really really really want to do something in the meantime. It does seem to be neither your Joplin version nor your encryption setup!
