When opening shop menus on Minecraft Bedrock Edition servers (tested on CubeCraft and The Hive), the screen darkens as if the menu opened, but the UI never appears. The player is stuck with a darkened screen and no buttons or HUD. Only the world and other players remain visible. The only way to exit is by pressing the Android system back button. This issue slows down gameplay significantly, especially in fast-paced modes like BedWars.
Important details:
Tested on 4 different Android devices (Android 15.0) with different accounts.
Happens with and without resource packs.
Happens across multiple servers, so it is not server-specific.
Game version: Minecraft Bedrock Edition v1.xx.x (latest at the time of testing).
Steps to reproduce:
Join a server (e.g., CubeCraft or The Hive).
Enter a game mode with a shop (e.g., BedWars).
Open the shop menu.
Occasionally, the screen darkens but the shop UI does not appear.
Player is stuck until pressing the Android system back button.
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.
Unfortunately we don't accept issues related to External Servers here on the bug tracker, but please add more details if you think this also affects multiplayer over Realms, LAN, or XBL.
I'd suggest contacting the server owner directly or seeking help on the Minecraft forums.
