Summary0013361: Improve error handling in case of disabled sync profiles
DescriptionCurrently if all configured sync profiles on the device are disabled, MMA still attempts and fails to WiFi Sync: the screen blanks, briefly flashes the sync initializing screen, and then blanks and only CLOSE is available.

A solution in such a case would be that MMA should proceed as if synchronization hasn't been configured (and ask the user to choose a sync location (as is already the case for 0013736). That'll cause the desired profile/location to become enabled.

This seems to be another case of 0013736 that isn't covered by that fix.

Tested 682 and this doesn't work as expected.

1 In MMW disable a sync profile that previously synced (SD card Honor 5x)
2 Initiated Wi-Fi sync
--> Synchronization screen apppears, something briefly flashes on the screen!
--> Close button appears!
3 Press close
4 Press 'Sync now'
--> Choose where to sync your media...
5 Choose 'SD card'
--> User is able to configure and sync to the location that had been disabled at step 1.

The main issue is that at Step 2, MMA should have indicated to the user to choose the sync location in order to re-enable the sync profile. There is a workaround--the user just has to try again. But it should work the first time.

Yes, that is true. The reason is that MMA checks whether profiles are enabled on wifi sync startup. But you have disabled it on MMW side so the profiles were not synced and they are synced after the check.

That is why it is ok when you start it second time. It is ok when you disable it in MMA or when you start sync from sync settings (because the settings are synced).

The workflow is remade already for 2.0 so I sugest to postpone it and fix it as part of 0011982
