Well, I've experienced disconnection without reconnection at list once a day, I've not posted the log because may not be related to Eddie but if you want I may post the log if needed...

I'm seeing the same thing, sometimes multiple times a day, since I updated to beta 3.
A support email with logs is in the making.

Hello!

@airvpnforumuser

Thank you for your suggestions. In the current beta testing, main features are frozen and only bug fixes are implemented, in general, but for the next future release feedback will be taken into due consideration as usual.

@harold.lewis

Thank you for your tests again. We have some progress on the malfunction reported by various users. We have realized that it has been reported not infrequently on the Internet for WireGuard and only in Android 13, so it does not seem related to Eddie, but to the WireGuard library called by Eddie. We suspect that the problem should occur with WireGuard only, and only in Android 12 and 13. Investigation goes on.

Kind regards

Interesting! I am seeing this with wireguard and Android 13 so I switched to OpenVPN and will observe if that makes a difference.

Hello!

We're very glad to inform you that Eddie Android edition 3.0 Beta 4 is now available. The original post has been updated accordingly.
 

New in Beta 4:

• Improved management of WireGuard in Android 13 to resolve a WireGuard issue related to system network changes

The mentioned issue has been found out by community testers and other persons using the official WireGuard client with any VPN service only in some Android 13 kernel releases. The implemented modification aims at resolving the problem at its root by having WireGuard re-connect every time the device records a network change, provided that "Always on VPN" and "Block connections without VPN" Android settings, as well as "VPN reconnection" Eddie option, are all enabled.

Find full description, download link and SHA256 signature in the first post of this very thread.

Thank you very much for your tests and please report and describe any bug you find!

Kind regards

I will test for three - four days and report back

not sure what happened but play protect prevented me from installing this and Avast mobile detects this as a trojan. virustotal also confirms this as a Trojan

Hello!

Please check the APK SHA based signature (published in this thread 1st message) carefully to confirm that it's a false positive.

 Yup i have verified and it is indeed the correct hash. Also by the way, the application on the play store is misspelt. i believe its missing "N" for the beta version.

Hello!

Eddie 3 beta versions are not available on the play store, can you please elaborate?

Kind regards

@mamegoma

It was a 2021 beta which is still there, as you can see from the date, only for those subscribed to beta testing phases. We will remove it even from beta testers as we see it causes confusion, thanks.

Kind regards

Using 3.0 Beta 4, I noticed the app connects to some servers which aren't in my favorites.

I'm using OpenVPN with default options.

I don't think I've ever seen this behavior before, is it normal?

Hello!

No, it isn't expected. We are trying to reproduce the issue, in the meantime can you please send us a report generated just after the problem has occurred?

Kind regards
