Description

Steps to reproduce

  1. Select "Uploads" from the menu.
  2. Select "On device" from the menu.

The window for "On device" does not change. It remains with "Uploads". The "Return Arrows" icon appears in place of the "Menu" icon:

obraz

Correct window that should appear: obraz

  1. Tap on the "Return Arrow" icon (there should be a "Menu" icon).
  2. Select "All files" from the menu.

After selecting "All files" from the menu, the "On device" window appears with a file search window:

obraz

@AlvaroBrey @tobiasKaminsky @AndyScherzinger Overall there is a bug with the transition from "Uploads" to "On device". I think the return to the "All files" menu is just a later consequence of this error.

Research direction
Focus on the navigation between 'Uploads' and 'On device' menu options. Look at the main activity's fragment transaction logic, likely in `MainActivity.java` or a navigation helper. The bug suggests that when 'On device' is selected, the fragment does not update. Check the menu handling code and ensure the correct fragment is instantiated and attached.
