Describe your environment

Please specify the following:

  • Jami version:20250925-01
  • Device model:Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro
  • Android version:11
  • What build you are using: F-droid

Steps to reproduce

  • Can you reproduce the bug: at will
  • Steps:
  • 1. Let the Jami application run in the background.
  • 2. Expand the Android notification shade.
  • 3. Tap on the persistent system notification that says "Jami is running in the background".
  • Actual result:The main Jami interface does not open. The action results in either no response or a full-screen blank/gray window.
  • Expected result:Tapping the persistent background notification should reliably open the main Jami interface and bring it to the foreground.

Additional information

This bug defeats the purpose of the persistent notification as a quick shortcut to the app.
