"Block Ads on this site" not selectable after app crash

[passbrains]

Adapted from ​https://platform.passbrains.com/dashboard/view-ticket.php?ticket_no=ADR-98

Environment

Asus + Nexus 7 + Android 5.1

How to reproduce

1. Launch Adblock browser

Emulate any browser crash scenario (when browser closes):

2. Load Bloomberg.com website
3. Tap Menu button and switch option  "Block Ads on this site" option off
4. Wait until page reloads

--> Sometimes app crashes and closes at this point

5. If app doesn't crash, scroll page down and attempt to scroll it up

--> See app crashes

6. When application crashes and closes open it again
7. Load any site, e.g. ​http://news.liga.net/news/society/12539084-pogoda_v_ukraine_letnee_teplo_uderzhitsya_do_kontsa_nedeli.htm
8. When site is loaded see ads are not blocked on the page
9. Tap Menu and see "Block Ads on this site" option is disabled and could not be enabled

Observed behaviour

When launch site page after app crash, "Block Ads on this site" option is disabled and could not be enabled and no ads are blocked on the page.

Expected behaviour

"Block Ads on this site" option should be enabled and ads should be blocked after loading any site.

In my case there aren´t any app crashes occuring, so I am not able to execute your reproduction steps.

As stated in ADR-97 - I am not able to reproduce the crash you are experiencing on Bloomberg. Could you supply the CatLog, if you are able to reproduce this again?

Additionally, if this occurs, then how are you enabling ABP afterwards? Are you having to completely re-install the app again or does it become selectable after some time or after a few restarts?

Thanks

I reproduced this bug again with the same conditions. There were no apps running at the same time, just were some processes running in background. Please see uploaded screenshot which shows list of running processes and logs.
Log1.txt file in the beginning should show logs when application crashes (but I'm not sure if it shows complete process).
Usually "Block ads on this site" option becomes enabled if kill and restart application once, but this time it remains disabled and log2.txt should show this. Restarting browser doesn't help.
Probably I need to reinstall application in order to enabled it.

I am still not able to reproduce this issue.
However I will accept this bug, because you have delivered log files.

As stated previously, I was not able to reproduce this issue as per ADR-97, however, there definitely is an issue here as shown in the attached video and screen shots.

Looking at the supplied log, I can see the following error:

I will pass this onto the developers to look into.

Thank you for the information.
