Re: kdeconnect doesn't



I keep reading wonderful things about KDEconnect but I've yet to experience them. My android phones can't see my Debian/Buster desktop and vice versa. Both devices are on the same network and I'm not running an internal firewall on my desktop. I've been trying KDEconnect intermittently for many months, during which time I've had a couple different Android phones, but have yet to have any success. I have no indication of any other network issues on my home network. Both IP addresses (phone & desktop) are assigned via DHCP, which is probably about as normal as you can get. Manually adding the desktop's current IP address to the phone app doesn't help either.
Any ideas?

I already reported this bug <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=898320>, even upstream <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394646>, even on the kdeconnect dev mailing list. Nobody answered. Its has been so for month.

Using wireshark I see packet exchanged netween android devices and PC  but probably the layout of the data are broken during network conversion when exchanged (arm 32 bits and amd64 64 bits) .
