[BUG] Unable to destroy or flip enemy portal
Came across a portal that was captured yesterday by the opposing faction that I could not destroy today.
Using L8 Xmps I was able to get it down to what you see below. When trying to use an ADA on it, it gave me an error about it being innoculated recently or such and ate the ADA. A few minutes later the ADA reappeared in my inventory. (well that was super weird)
I know it's happened in the past. I just don't remember exactly when. G+ being gone really makes it hard to figure out when stuff happened in the past. 😕
I ended up just fielding over it. But something is definitely broken.
Here's the link to the portal

Noticed later this evening that the portal in question was finally grey. No idea when it died.
Still a bug in the system that wouldn't allow it to be killed or even flipped earlier today.
I had the same problem, when I had tried to capture portal it said - "Enemy portal", although he was already gray or there were two resonators that could not be destroyed. Another agent had the same situation in the scanner. Clearing the cache or restarting the game did not help.

Yeah - it looks like server side issue and it happen for 2 months now.
One day i even saw NianticBrain in my are (Poland, Europe) on COMM, destroying green link coming out from blue portal. Next update this issue appeared
Just checked saved sshots - it was 25.03.2020, so new bug appeared sometime about beginning of april.
There was the same problem, 2 times. Began to knock down the resonators in the portal. The portal turned gray, but a second later it turned green again and with one resonator and at could not be destroyed (no damage was done at all). Portals are different, the problem was on different days.
And yet again today. Same area, different portal. It's a L1 green portal. I knock off the resonator and it shows as grey. Can't capture it. Shows enemy portal. Try a few more times. Same thing. Restarted the application. Now it shows as green with one resonator. Check recent activities. No longer shows me destroying the resonator.
@NianticBrian so, when will this pervasive bug be looked at? I'd like to play. But if I can't even destroy resonators and capture portals, then what's the point of even bothering? I'm on my 3rd Recursion, working my way back to L16 again, nearing 400 million AP, so I think I know how to capture a portal by now...
It's grey
Can't capture it
After scanner restart
You can plainly see the time in the screen shots.
Portal link:
Current scanner view of the portal. Different agent owns it from the last time I had the same issue at a nearby portal.
*Edit
And just like last time, a few hours later, the portal is grey.
Based on the above, I didn't really even bother to play much today.
Same issue here...Portal will not turn grey and is "stuck" at 5% energy. But taking No further damage... At least the link connected to it disappeared 😅
