Thread: NEWBIE [and THE OTHERS :)] PROBLEMS with NG INSTALATIONS

Dear all. I haven't used my iGO Nextgens for a few months and in the meantime my phone also upgraded to Android 13. I have noticed, that my iGO applications, winch were functioning fine so far and which I didn't touch, have now strange issues:

On Luna with skin Pongo now does not work the voice recognition anymore. The microphone button on the map is available, it asks for pronouncing the address, but there is not displayed the green bar when microphone is listening. Voices in Regional settings don't display the little microphone indicator of VR-enabled voices. And it is unable to exit from Luna with switch-off icons in the menu or in top left corner. They do not react and I have to kill Luna app manually from Android.

On Nextgen Izrael, Pal and Avic the VR stopped working. It says there were not found any VR-compatible voices (which is not true). And all my VR-enabled voices also stopped displaying the little microphone indicator in regional settings. Online functions on Izrael do not work anymore, but I understand hat this is unfortunately normal.

I am using Samsung S22+ with Android 13. Luna and Israel are with corresponding Pongo skins. Pal and Avic with Arimi skin. All permissions including Microphone are enabled. Tested with Vocalizer, Acapela, Google and Samsung TTS engines. All voices are TTS and VR enabled and worked. All necessary folders for TTS and VR are in proper locations. Of course Save deleted, apps reinstalled and I even tried restore from two years old functional backup. No luck. When I copied the Luna folder from Samsung to my another device with Android 9 (of course with adjusted paths) Luna works perfect.

I already spent several hours on it and I really suspect something caused by Android 13. Did anyone observe the similar behavior? Thank you for any advise.
