Re: [b2g] The latest OTA broken my Flame
I saw something similar after a FOTA on 1.4. At boot (splashscreen visible) it said I had very little space left (userdata partition), and it was stuck on splashscreen. I could reboot with the power button menu. Then I saw the homescreen but without wallpaper (black). I couldn't do anything with the homescreen at this point. The notification tray and the power button menu still worked. Reboot didn't help. I only solved it by wiping the userdata partition. Basically a factory reset. I think the cause was corruption in /data/local/webapps and we can at various points see different symptoms of it. It's in a way related to 1056424 - Stuck at loading screen during power cut off test https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1056424, but in my case it was caused by low space on /data rather than power cut off. Being low on /data space in turn came from 1058555 - Updating preloaded apps in FOTA/OTA results in duplicate apps in /data/local/webapps https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1058555, though I assume your flame build does not come with preloaded apps? Do you know how much space you had available on /data? *Andreas Pehrson *--- Software Engineer (+47) 959 60 374 | pehr...@telenordigital.com | www.telenordigital.com On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 9:21 AM, Tim Chien timdr...@mozilla.com wrote: Update: So I tried to download pvtbuild from few days again, go into fastboot mode, and flash system.img ONLY in attempt to save my data.

Re: [b2g] Error when doing repo sync.
Most likely a previous build put stuff in device/qcom/msm7627a and now that folder isn't needed anymore (did you change device?). It is erroring here in case you put it there yourself and forgot to save your work. If you haven't touched it you can safely delete that folder, rm -rf device/qcom/msm7627a; or cd to it and do a hard git reset to just get rid of the uncommitted changes. Since this error always occurs after fetching all remote repos, you can do a quicker sync by not checking them again: ./repo sync -l (or ./config.sh -l device) *Andreas Pehrson *--- Software Engineer (+47) 959 60 374 | pehr...@telenordigital.com | www.telenordigital.com On Sat, Jul 19, 2014 at 7:22 PM, A.

Re: [b2g] error when I'm using ./configure.sh inari
This happens when the server runs an old git and the index-pack step takes too long to run. Nothing is sent to the client during this step so the connection times out. Newer git have a keep-alive mechanism in place instead. See more info at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=963469. The error is slightly different but I believe the cause is the same. There are two ways to fix it as far as I know: 1 Tell the server maintainers so they can either upgrade their git, extend the timeout or optimize the repo so the index-pack step is faster. 2 Make sure your local git process (the one fetching the repo) does NOT run with the '--no-progress' flag (more info at the URL above). If it has it, it is probably because you are piping the output to somewhere. See if it works when you don't and if you still need it piped you can probably force progress from the server (somehow) or you can use the linux program scripthttp://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?script .

Re: [b2g] Problem running config.sh
config.sh sets up a manifest for repo. It's located at B2G/.repo/manifest.xml. From your error message, I'm assuming that file doesn't exist. Try running config.sh again. If you are doing this for a new device you could add it to config.sh and then hand it your local manifest file like so: ./config.sh device -m path/to/manifest. *Andreas Pehrson *--- Software Engineer (+47) 959 60 374 | pehr...@comoyo.com | www.comoyo.com On Sun, Feb 9, 2014 at 3:42 PM, Adrián Mª Mora Carreto leaks...@openmailbox.org wrote: Hello, I am trying to build a custom Firefox OS for my device.

Re: [b2g] b2g and the huge downloads! how to avoid?
#1. Do not delete anything, especially not .repo! If you have made changes in your working tree you might want to reset those. Sometimes files are created in your working tree during configuration or build, but then your config run will complain and tell you which directory has changes. Deleting that directory in your working tree is safe. Run *./repo status* to see any stray files. #2 No, it essentially runs *git fetch* for all repos listed in the manifest. See more info further down. #3 You shouldn't use git to just update your code base. When you run *./config.sh*, it will setup the manifest for the device you gave it. It will then essentially run *./repo sync *with the options you provided to config.sh (for instance, -l will only use local files, hence not update any repos over the network). The repos are stored in *.repo/projects* but that folder should not be touched at all. *./repo*will handle everything for you. When you run *./config.sh* or *./repo sync*, only the necessary files will be downloaded. That is, if you have already downloaded the necessary repos, you will only be fetching commits and branches that were added after your previous sync. So in short, If you are not changing to another device, you only need to run *./repo sync* to update to the latest and greatest. If you want to switch to another device fast (not check each repo for new stuff, for instance when you know you updated for that device recently) you should run *./config.sh -l device*. Also note that when building for different devices, the resulting binaries and libraries will live in different places (under *out/target/product*), so there is no need to clear any old stuff out when building for a new device. *Andreas Pehrson *--- Software Engineer (+47) 959 60 374 | pehr...@comoyo.com | www.comoyo.com On Fri, Jan 17, 2014 at 4:58 PM, Techno Buddha wrott...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, So I'm now suffering with having to pay an extra $50 for my Bell downloads, as I went over my limit without checking!
