#jollamobile log for Saturday, 2019-02-02

Smarmal: I’ve taken one or two pictures09:26
svuorelahmm.. osmand wont do internet on jollaxa10:09
Smarsome android programs seems to only work with wlan10:11
Smarthis is totally unrelated, but these strict mode warnings are still so unclear :X10:28
tadzik"currently we are not planning to deploy this solution (android 8) backwards to older Xperia X models"11:25
tadzikwell that sends an interesting message11:25
tadzik"buy XA2, but when something newer comes out you will become the second-class user"11:26
SmarI thought android support is more of complementary piece and not the whole point of the os....11:27
Smaranyway, give them infinite resources and you can get whatever you want :P11:27
tadzikwell, it'd be fine with a completely android-free OS, but that would require competent native counterparts11:30
tadzikto absolutely basic things, like a web browser11:30
r0kk3rztadzik: at fosdem?11:31
tadzikand Jolla itself clearly doesn't treat it as a mere addon, since it's decomissioning native solutions like Maps in favour of basically-supporting the android alternatives11:31
tadzikr0kk3rz: nah, skipped it this year :/11:31
tadzikbut yeah, I get the resources point, fair enough11:31
r0kk3rztadzik: lame, maybe next time!11:32
tadzikI kept thinking that I can convince one of my clients to send me so I don't have to spend money myself11:33
tadziksee how that went, heh11:33
Smarmal, attah: I think I found out the reason why it failed for me: Google account’s sync of contacts12:03
Smarthe jolla integration to google I mean12:03
r0kk3rzhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ17tWlxCiA <-- FOSDEM community meeting live stream13:01
malSmar: interesting13:39
malSmar: does disabling that help with the issue?13:45
malSmar: do you have a lot of contacts?14:02
attahSmar: mhmm, what part of it is problematic?14:05
malattah: some sync could cause the memory issue14:07
attah...like if a sync starts, or does it request a sync, or what?14:08
malwell it will always sync at startup14:09
attahso what do i do? disable the google account?14:10
attahit's not like i have a whole lot of contacts there anyway14:10
malattah: did you test the picture moving yet?14:11
attahah, right.. will try now14:12
malI find it unlikely contacts could cause that14:12
malbecause those should be small even if there are a lot of those14:12
attahwell, so should pictures... as i guess it only really tracks information about that they *exist*, no?14:13
malit should yes14:14
attahokay, now i'm down to the stock photos, and a dozen downloads14:15
attahIm not even getting the apps to show up in their prior unusable state... but that's the same as earlier today... -> reboot14:17
attahF-Droid launched but is empty... and now button animations seized14:20
attahI should try another app14:20
attahWhen switching app it managed to emit a notification... and then Aliendalvik crashed14:21
attahor maybe not14:21
attahNot having any luck with the installs now14:33
malso still the same memory issues in logcat?14:37
attahno14:37
malwhat then?14:38
attaha whole lot of nothing... i'll paste you the last run14:38
malanything in journalctl about alien or apkd?14:39
attahhttps://pastebin.com/fiteGwFz14:40
attahThat's an installation not really happening14:41
Tegublah, this swipe from corner to close app is a bit annoying at times. again I accidentally closed an app14:44
attahI thought the annoyance almost always was the other way around.. getting that pesky curtain menu instead of closing :)14:44
attahA crash: https://pastebin.com/P23Mib8X14:48
attahthe latter part at least, i could have possibly included an intentional restart... but i think it starts at that start14:49
mallogcat is more useful14:52
maljournal only tell alien is crashing14:53
attahyeah... hmm, current log cat doesn't cover a crash14:56
maljust leave it on and it should14:58
attahtee mangles stuff so i more'd the file i was saving to15:01
attahthought that messed up the pipe, but it was a crash... however i managed to lose the file before i realized15:02
attahBut from the crap output i can see a OOM15:02
attahhttps://pastebin.com/Kx93csny15:05
attahThere, got one15:05
malthe question is why does that happen to you and not others15:18
attahIndeed15:18
attahI should probably just reflash and hope it goes away15:21
attahI do have some extra and very lightly modified gstreamer packages, and a utility or two from mer-tool15:22
attahbut that's about it /methinks15:22
malhmm, odd why those would affect it, unless those have prevented some packages from updating15:25
attahI don't think they would... but that's all the even remotely "poweruser" stuff that i've done really15:27
Smarmal: yes, I have a lot of contacts15:39
Smarmal: and yes, it works15:39
Smar(now)15:39
Smaranyway, I removed whole google account syncronization; the logcat showed something related to contacts, so I suppose for me it was related to that15:40
Smarif there is something specific someone wants to me to test, I can do it (probably tomorrow though)15:41
malSmar: good to hear, still very odd issue15:41
Smaryes15:42
malSmar: would be interesting to know if you can now add the sync back and will it start failing again or is the issue only during initial sync15:42
Smarjust a theory, but it may start after rebooting alien dalvik, not instantly after adding google account15:43
Smarbut I can test it tomorrow15:43
malthanks15:45
Smarno problems15:45
malit shouldn't be related to google account sync but instead to amount of contacts15:45
Smaror some special contact, bad character or something like that15:47
Smarlike you said, contacts itself shouldn’t take much memory after all15:48
malyes, those should be small unless something would be leaking memory or something15:49
