Kann ich nicht reproduzieren. Kannst du bitte einen Screenshot anhängen? Wo ist das?

Bei mir funktioniert auch noch alles

Google Pixel3a mit Android 12

[Hallenberger]

With Version v37.1 the problem is still alive.

Do you have stock Android from Google or some custom ROM?

Which language is set as the system language?

Is there anything in logs?

[FloEdelmann]

Wo ist das?

Werden nirgends Straßennamen angezeigt, oder nur in einer bestimmten Gegend nicht? Kannst du einen OSM-Link zu einer betroffenen Straße teilen?

English 🇺🇸

Are street names not showing anywhere, or only in a certain area? Can you share an OSM link to an affected street?

[Hallenberger]

Google Pixel 3a. Stock Android from Google.
Language is German.
Where can i find the logs?

[matkoniecz]

You can grab the logs via adb logcat (https://www.siteforinfotech.com/capture-android-logs-minimal-adb-and-fastboot/), without root

But first to check: are streets in this area actually having names in OpenStreetMap? Has someone set incorrect name:de on them? This could be also caused by name:de= name tags with blank text set as German names.

It is also possible that Jawg tile data is corrupted in this area, to check this you can look at https://github.com/streetcomplete/streetcomplete-mapstyle#contributing - or more specifically https://streetcomplete.github.io/streetcomplete-mapstyle/?provider=jawg&style=light If that is not showing street names either in this area, then problem is not on StreetComplete side.

[Hallenberger]

Streets are always without names in streetcomplete. The Jawg tile data are correct. In OpenStreetMap the streets have correct names.

[westnordost]

So

• it is not a data issue
• it is not a Jawg issue
• it is not a tangram issue per se (but it could be a tangram-es issue)

And since you have a standard phone with stock Android, I very much doubt that it is an Android or device issue (e.g. some broken OpenGL ES support). You also do not have any weird language set.

What German did you select in the settings? German (Germany)? Or something else?

We are really poking around in the dark here, as you seem to be the first one who can reproduce this issue. Your configuration doesn't seem to be in any way special.

[westnordost]

Is text displayed at all on the map? For example, are housenumbers shown where they should be shown? (Compare with https://streetcomplete.github.io/streetcomplete-mapstyle/?provider=jawg&style=light )

[smichel17]

Are you able to zoom in any further? I have noticed that sometimes I have to zoom in quite far to get names to appear.

Can you try reinstalling StreetComplete? (after submitting quests if you use some manual upload mode, as all data will be reset)

Maybe there is some random corruption manifesting this way?

Do you have some weird behavior in other apps? (my previous phone was not showing toast messages in Vespucci and some other apps - due to some phone specific bug or corruption).

Yes, it is "have you tried turning it off and on again"

[Hallenberger]

I have installed StreetComplete on an other Pixel3a (with Android 12). On this smartphone StreetComplete was never installed. The same issue: no street-names, no house-numbers. It seems, that every text is not displayed.

[matkoniecz]

Ok, that is weird.

Has anyone else got access to Pixel3a? Is it happening also to them?

Not asking you to do this, but if you have multiple phones it maybe would be feasible - but is it happening also after factory reset of a phone?

[westnordost]

I think the definitive lead here is that text on Android 12 doesn't work. Next steps:

• try it in an Android 12 emulator.
• if reproducible, report issue at tangram-es

[svenpilz]

I have the same issue on Android 12 (Pixel 5) with 37.2. No text is displayed on the map.

[westnordost]

I think this is linked to tangrams/tangram-es#2303 (comment) or even the very same issue.

[westnordost]

Probably it is a bug upstream. If the issue cannot be resolved, maybe a workaround is possible. For now, I'll mark it as blocked.

[westnordost]

Alright I'll close this as there is an issue for that upstream.
