Summary	0011584: First time connection message is misleading / broken workflow & MMA won't terminate
Description	If the user syncs a device to MMW that already has a profile for the MMA device, but the device itself has no sync info, then the following message briefly appears upon initiating the sync: Choose where to sync your media fil... -------------------------------------------- This is your first time connecting to it, you will probably need to accept the connection on the server in order to proceed. [Cancel] This is strange for several reasons: a) If a connection has already been allowed, then the dialog appears very briefly--too briefly to read and then disappears. I would suggest that it should only appear if MMA has detected that MMW is blocking the connecting (e.g. after 2? seconds). That way the dialog will only appear if the connection is indeed being blocked in some way. b) The Title doesn't match up to the message! The title should be something like 'Connecting...' c) The message itself seems to be missing some text. It should be changed to: Since this is your first time connecting to the server, you may need to accept the connection on the server in order to proceed. [Cancel] This is a minor issue, and is only labelled as urgent on the assumption that it is trivial to implement/low risk. Push to 1.0.5 if that's not the case.

marek 2013-12-13 18:46 developer ~0038765	I have fixed a) in build 201 But what kind of dialog you see ? I don't see cut text or title. Please see attached screenshot. What API/device do you use ?

rusty 2013-12-19 04:09 administrator ~0038847	I can't replicate issue b). The only thing I can think of is that perhaps the dialog was somehow superimposed on the 'Choose where to sync your media files' dialog. Re-assigning to Marek, since issue c) should be resolved as well.

rusty 2013-12-20 05:51 administrator ~0038900 Last edited: 2013-12-20 07:47	Tested 205 and there are several problems: 1 delete the Nexus5 profile in MMW 2 initiate a wi-fi sync -->MMA appears to be stuck in the initialization phase--the reason being that MMW has popped up a dialog asking whether access should be granted, but MMA hasn't popped up its corresponding dialog. This issue seems to occur when the profile has been deleted from MMW, but not from MMA--if the profile/config info has been deleted from both, then the dialog appears as expected. 3 Press 'Cancel' in MMA --> 'Everything is in sync' message appears even though synchronization never took place! Granted, nothing was selected, but the message implies that a sync occurred (even though it didn't / shouldn't have)! --> MMA fails to terminate after the above scenario occurs. Even rebooting the device doesn't terminate the process--it must be force-terminated! Note: I'm not sure which of these bugs are related to the change in the connection dialog--I can create separate bugs if necessary. Of these issues, the third is most critical since it may result in battery drain issues (and I wonder if it may be related to 0011458 ).

As talked over Skype with Marek, it should be fixed on MMA side. Test note: To reproduce you don't need to delete profile in MMW, you can just deselect [ ] Grant remote sync / access rights to ... checkbox
