"Press back Button" never ending loop

[n0poti]

Tried various Android Version and Instagram versions. Always get the same problem when initiating the bot:

etc...

Same here 🫠

Same issue here as well!

However, I am using an actual android device via ADB. I think it might be a problem with the instagram version

[paulyoyo]

The problem is in the file core/views.py line 1553

def click_on_avatar(self):
    while True:
        if self._new_ui_profile_button():
            break
        if self._old_ui_profile_button():
            break
        self.device.back()

I understand that this should click the avatar but it doesn't and keeps in the while loop forever.

I've commented all the lines within the function, click the avatar myself and know it's working.

I'm using the ig version 300.0.0.29.110

Python 3.9.2

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41
Version 28.0.2-debian

Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5
Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

Any suggestions on how to fix it?

You're on wrong API. Use android 10, API 29, which has the three buttons including the back button.
