Bug in chat with Android client

[SiNaPsEr0x]

But on my Phone is ok The chat

[zoff99]

this is a problem with aTox
see: zoff99/ToxAndroidRefImpl#325

all other Tox clients handle UTF-8 encoding properly
we have asked the aTox developer to handle this, but until now it was not fixed in aTox.

[SiNaPsEr0x]

ok but why you don't use a toxext ?

[zoff99]

its not a issue of toxcore or toxext. in C strings are terminated at the first NULL byte. everything after that is not part of the string.
tox uses bytes and has no knowledge of strings or text.
sadly iOS does not allow an app to run in the background, this makes it very difficult to use any Tox Client on iOS.

Thanks for the explanation

[zoff99]

thank you for your feedback, we know this issue is not optimal at this time.
if you and your friends are using qTox <-> Antidote there will be no issue.
also TRIfA <-> Antidote will work fine.
TRIfA will wakeup Antidote with PUSH Notifications
qTox* (https://github.com/Zoxcore/qTox) will also wakeup Antidote with PUSH Notifications (*but that is NOT an official qTox verison!)
