direc85[m]Good Saturday afternoon! I'm having an issue on my X10III - Android app support doesn't start after stopping it yesterday evening. I know a reboot would fix it, but I'd like to find the cause of that.09:30
direc85[m]I created a bug report on the forums about this, with journalctl logs: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/android-app-support-doesnt-start-after-long-uptime/1691909:30
direc85[m]Please have a look and tell me what logs or extra information would help in finding the root cause, thanks!09:31
pherjung[m]There are various similar bug reports. It's an old one, but it may be worth to check if it's the same issue: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/4-0-1-15-aliendalvik-stop-working-and-doesnt-start-solved-removing-android-data/463509:54
pherjung[m]If you want to find easily other bug reports related to android app support, I tagged them there: https://tree.taiga.io/project/thigg-sfos-bug-mod/kanban?tags=android_app_support09:55
direc85[m]Thank you!18:00
maldirec85[m]: did you figure out how to fix the issue?18:04
direc85[m]No, not yet. I was an acting lumberjack today, there was a storm that knocked off a few trees.18:06
direc85[m]I'm currently browsing through the bugs pherjung linked18:06
direc85[m]So far the closest match seems to be https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/5599 but even that's a bit off18:07
malfor such messages check the process sending them using the pid mention in that log18:09
malit's quite normal to see some binder messages if appsupport is not running18:14
direc85[m]Back at this. I haven't been able to catch the process(es) that crash; I guess they are so short-lived that they never pop up in htop19:55
direc85[m]As the crash output in journalctl is kernel: Core dump to |/usr/sbin/rich-core-dumper --pid=905 --signal=6 --name=android.hardwar disabled it doesn't limit it that much either...19:56
direc85[m]...or I may be grepping the process(es) on my host. One of the other, we'll never know!19:57
direc85[m]Nope, there are no such PIDs in the phone which are reported in journalctl, so they must be aliendalvik-internal20:05
maldo you see anything in tombstones?20:05
direc85[m]Yes, let's see what...20:07
direc85[m]`/vendor/bin/hw/android.hardware.biometrics.fingerprint@2.1-service.sony` --> `Abort message: 'Failed HIDL return status not checked. Usually this happens because of a transport error (error parceling, binder driver, or from unparceling). If you see this in code calling into "Bn" classes in for a HAL server process, then it is likely that the code there is returning transport errors there (as opposed to errors defined within its20:08
direc85[m]protocol). Error is: Status(EX_TRANSACTION_FAILED): 'DEAD_OBJECT: ''`20:08
malin which folder is that?20:09
direc85[m]/data/tombstone, but that's actually from two days ago, so nevermind I guess20:09
malthe appsupport tombstones are somewhere under /home/.system/ or something like that20:10
direc85[m]ah20:11
direc85[m]Actually, I just remembered something......20:11
malin /data it has the host tombstones from adaptation20:11
direc85[m]I had the X10III triple-camera switch enabled, but disabling that didn't change the behavior20:13
direc85[m]There are /home/.android/data/[vendor/]tombstones folders20:14
direc85[m]/system/bin/hw/android.hardware.audio.service at least appears20:15

maldirec85[m]: when did the issues start? did you update sailfish or do something else?20:32
direc85[m]It could be linked to https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/4-4-0-64-xperia-10-iii-the-sound-disappears-and-video-freeze/1191020:33
direc85[m]The issue started this morning, when I tried to start app support after shutting it down yesterday evening to conserve power. Before that I had to restart pulseaudio to regain audio.20:34
direc85[m]Hmm, let me do a test call to self to see if call audio still works.20:35
maland reboot doesn't help?20:38
direc85[m]I'm almost sure it would, but as the issue is on, I'd like to milk all logs I can.20:41
direc85[m]It has at least fixed the audio issue always. I don't typically restart app support, however.20:42
malyeah, grab full journal, and those tombstones, that's pretty much all that can be found unless you can manage to start appsupport logcat20:42
maldepends on how soon it fails20:42
direc85[m]Call audio works. Pulseaudio restart hasn't always fixed that though.20:42
direc85[m]My issue has noise-filtered journald logs, but I'll provide one more, which lets the service turn itself off after some timeout.20:44
direc85[m]I can start logcat20:47
direc85[m]I collected the tombstones, journal dump and logcat dump.21:03
