Channels are loaded endlessly

Sendbird Chat UIKit Android

We’re using your ChannelListActivity, but sometimes channels are loaded endlessly while not giving any errors [we’re following this guide Send your first message | UIKit Android SDK | Sendbird Docs].
After a while they are loaded and everything works fine.
Version of UIKit - 2.2.2

Can you clarify what you mean by loaded endlessly? Can you also show me your query?

Jamworks January 10, 2022, 8:09pm 3

We don’t use any queries, because almost everything works fine. We thought that there is no need to write something of our own and can simply reuse existing behavior. What should we insert here?

Check the other thread I responded to!

Please tell me what exactly should I add to my code so that the channels load quickly?

Try this. It’s one of the ways you can implement UIKit, Activity and Fragments…

You BaseApplication.java

Actually we have the same code, but on Kotlin.
Channel still loading too long. Sometimes it works fine, but sometimes doesn’t

walter.rodriguez January 28, 2022, 10:47am 9

What do you mean with “too long”? Can you share a video or screenshots?

Abhilash_D August 17, 2022, 6:20pm 10

I am facing the same issue. Were you able to resolve it?

@walter.rodriguez @Alex_Preston Here is the topic I created regarding the same issue with all the details. Could you please help?
