Automatic picture upload not starting if "only on wifi" unchecked

[lhartmann]

Actual behaviour

• If "upload only on wifi" is unchecked then picture upload never starts.

Expected behaviour

• If "upload only on wifi" is unchecked then pictures should be uploaded, regardless of which network is active, wifi or cellular.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install and configure owncloud client on android
2. Enable instant uploads for pictures and videos.
3. Restrict videos to upload only via wifi (check box), but not pictures (ucheck box).
4. Take a picture.
5. Picture upload never starts.
6. Make a video.
7. Video uploads normally.
8. Check "upload only on wifi" for pictures too.
9. Picture uploads start and work nicely.

You are performing these steps under wifi connection, i guess. Did you change the network in any moment during the performance?

After getting my new Xiaomi MI 9T I ran into problems aswell. I only allow the upload via Wi-Fi and it is not working at all (there is no error message or something else).

After a bit of playing around with the settings in the App I could reproduce a very strange behaviour. If I deselect the "Only upload via Wi-Fi" it instantly starts to upload all the pictures that are new for the server. My Wi-Fi connection is always enabled and even if I disable it and re-enable it by hand it won't upload files. So I have to disable the Wi-Fi only option always by hand to make sure it does not use my mobile Internet connection which is kind of annoying.
