The latest version of #Pokey is using Amber, presumably for auth to DM inboxes. It correctly calls Amber, and starts the service after I've authenticated, but it's also throwing up a toast message saying "Amber not installed". nostr:nprofile1qqsxg45ph8gx0vdrvtzta6xal7v86frx6jvstsnvhrlvtehmwwh4epqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuvrcvd5xzapwvdhk6tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9nhwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny9ua2vh28 any idea of what this problem is? It just an errant toast message? Or do you think there's something actually going wrong?
Yes, I approve the request like normal, and it starts the service normally. I haven't received an DM yet so I'm not sure if DM notifications are working, but non-auth notifications are fine. It just keeps putting up that toast message.
I just tested it on my second device and the same thing is happening. I authenticate with Amber, and the Pokey service starts but puts up that toast notification.
Ok, so I'm not getting notifications on DMs. I've tried removing my Pokey permissions from Amber and starting fresh, but no matter what I do I'm unable to get DM notifications.
If it matters, I'm using Amber v2.0.8-free
I tried reinstalling Amber, and reinstalling Pokey. I've tried force-closing and restarting both apps. No matter what I do I get that fail toast.
And this is happening on two separate devices.
Also, I checked in Amber, and my Pokey entry has a full set of approved permissions, so I'm thinking the problem is either with Pokey, or maybe some FUBAR communication problem between Amber and Pokey. Because I wouldn't be seeing all these permissions in Amber if it didn't authenticate properly.
It's so weird. Not sure how the problem could be present on both of my devices, but not able to reproduce on another device. The only things my two devices have in common are they're both Samsungs, and they're on the same network 🤔
Do you think it's worth trying a different variation of Amber, such as the offline version?
No joy. Using the offline version produces the same problem. I get that "Amber not Installed" toast.
I really don't think the problem is with Amber because Amber works just fine with literally every other app. The only other issue I had with Amber was with using bunker with Ditto. And you helped me resolve that. I strongly suspect the problem lies with Pokey, or with the communication between Amber and Pokey.

I am also seeing this Amber not installed error. Are your notification timestamps wrong? nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzphvypepnh9u8jkantfqgh3s77l5edz96pvtxlr95cl8tedf33m9sqythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjt3s0p3ksct59e3k7mf0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcqyp200xyvdksudycfmz9fe3xcapgnr2q27selth4t38crfmswrwc0segatrx
No, my timestamps are fine although I saw some other people had the timestamp issue. I think it's two distinct and unconnected issues. But as much as I'm sad that you're having trouble with Pokey, I'm a little glad I'm not the only one who's having this problem with the Amber authentication failing. nostr:nprofile1qqsxg45ph8gx0vdrvtzta6xal7v86frx6jvstsnvhrlvtehmwwh4epqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuvrcvd5xzapwvdhk6tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9nhwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny9ua2vh28 here's another user who's having that problem with Pokey v0.0.4-alpha not authenticating with Amber, and the "Amber not installed" toast.
In the meantime, I've reverted to Pokey v0.0.3-alpha. All notifications are working properly except DM Inbox notifications. I'll wait til this issue is resolved to upgrade.
I don't have the timestamp problem with v0.0.3-alpha. And since v0.0.3-alpha doesn't authenticate with Amber (other than to pull the npub), there's no process that triggers the "Amber not installed" toast.
I also was not getting timestamp errors on 0.0.3-alpha
Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help diagnose the problem.

Awesome debugging work! Nothing gives me the tingles like collaboration! When you say "dud relay" does that mean that the issue ultimately stems from a bad relay defined in Amber?
Let me know if you'd like me confirm that this fix resolves the original problem of auth failing and that "Amber not installed" toast being generated before you publish an updated Amber release.
Oh I see. Could it be that one or more of the relays is paid? Because I have two paid relays defined as my outbox relays, and one paid relay defined as my DM Inbox relay.
