Android 13: "Failed to upload" any size file on Android

[moatus]

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Nextcloud Talk and choose a conversation
2. Take a picture using the in-app "Take a photo" option
3. After pushing send, nothing will appears in the chat and Android sends a "Failed to upload" notification
4. Try uploading via "Upload from device" any size file or image (testest with 40kb to 3mb) and nothing will upload (but when going the "Upload from device" route, this is no failure notification. It just don't work and nothing shows in the chat.

Expected behaviour

Trying to attach any photo, video, or file in a conversation.

Actual behaviour

When trying to capture or attach a photo, video, or file via Nextcloud Talk on Android, a notification appears saying "Failed to upload":

It doesn't matter if you use "Take photo" or "Upload from device", none of the attachment options seems to work (though the failure notification only show up with "Take photo" and "Take video". Share contact doesn't work either. The only attachment that works is "Share location".

I've tested with a Pixel 4a and a Samsung Galaxy A52 and neither work. Both phones and the server are all on the same local network.

Is this issue because Talk hasn't been updated for Android 13? Just saw this on the product page: 💬 Talk team (view)

HI @moatus thanks for the report!
Just checked and indeed there seem to be problems while uploading with android 13! We will increase the importance to upgrade!

I didn't yet had a closer look but most likely there are follow-up bugs caused by the new granular-media-permissions

I cannot reproduce on Samsung s10e running LOS 20 (android 13)
Every upload work well from same network or different

tested with talk 15.1.0 RC2

Also unable to reproduce, Pixel 6pro and 7pro, GrapheneOS. Further details required before concluding that this is related to Android version.

Tested it again @lbdroid @maxcco and it is uploading now. Server hasn't been restarted and conditions are the same, media is now uploading.

If it shows up gain, I'll update. Thanks for looking into it!

@moatus ; are you certain that the talk android version wasn't 15.0.0 or 15.0.1 awhen you were having the issue and subsequently uodated? There was an upload issue that affected files over 1MB that was fixed in version 15.0.2.
