Hi everyone, first I want to apologize for making a 2nd post, but my original one was bounced because of its size a week ago and I didn't hear anything since then nor am I able to cancel the message now. By attached all logs the message got too big. Now to the problem: Symptom: after a pretty random amount of time (experienced between 30 minutes and 2.5 days) the phone will become unresponsive to any action. The screen is then dark black (not backlit) and the power button will not wake up the phone like usual. Connecting over usb to a computer at least shows the usb gadget, but getting a ssh connection is impossible then. Also, getting calls is not possibe in this state, caller experiences the same as if I had turned gsm off. The only possibility to get the phone to work again is taking out the battery, putting it back in and restart the phone. This is rather annoying, I find myself checking all two minutes if it's still there and I miss calls on a regular basis. Browsing the logs i can't see anything unusual in them (like eg read/write errors on rootfs).
What phone and what's on it: A7+, purchased one in Jan which had pixel errors, got this one as replacement. bootloader: tried uboot and qi (the qi 2-4-2 linked to on the debian freerunner wiki), same with both. Running the latest (2011.1) shr-t in nand including a kernel upgrade that came in the last two weeks, had the problem before the upgrade, too. The problem was already present after a fresh install. What have I done to trace it: I mounted a sdcard and added a log/ directory to it, removed /var/log and linked /media/card/log to /var/log (like someone on irc suggested). This left the logdir empty the whole time, so I figured I should perhaps restart some services. Restarting (in this order) fsodeviced fsotdld frameworkd phonefsod atd xserver-nodm populated my log - but also made the phone quite unstable, being overall slower and sometimes not bringing gsm up. Btw those are the too-long-logs I tried to attach to my first mail. Errors on console while booting (didn't change the loglevel yet): SoftDog: cannot register miscdev on minor=130 s3c2410_udc: debugfs dir creation failed -19 In brief - I have no clue what's going on. What still needs to be done by me: -testing another distro on nand to see if it has the same problem -eventually testing other qi versions? What do I need help with: -finding a way to populate the log directory on the sd card so that it doesn't behave differently from after booting (I'm sure I'm missing something pretty simple here-.-). -finding out if it's a software problem or if my replacement phone has broken hw and needs to be replaced (like I mentioned it is a pretty annoying bug). I will be glad to attach any log or dmesg and perform any necessary test, but being afraid of getting bounced again I didn't attach anything to this one, please forgive me for that ;) Greetings, Caspar _______________________________________________ Shr-User mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shr-project.org/mailman/listinfo/shr-user
