[Bug 1480877] Re: Access points' "PropertiesChanged" dbus signals freeze UI on mobile devices

 

@Tony

hey :)

Yeah, I reflashed yesterday (without formatting the user partition).

I'll keep you posted, I think the bug is still there, as I'm seeing
0.5-1secs freezes and bursts of PropertiesChanged signals on the bus
(but not as many as before reflashing).

It usually gets worse over time, so let's see how it will behave
tomorrow or in a couple of days.

I'm quite sure the problem is still there, just a matter of waiting for
it to get annoying enough.

Title:
  Access points' "PropertiesChanged" dbus signals freeze UI on mobile
  devices

Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Krillin, rc-proposed, r83

  
  DESCRIPTION:
  I've been trying to track down the cause of the occasional UI freezes on my Krillin device, and I noticed that whenever the UI freezes for 2-4 seconds, I get a burst of "PropertiesChanged" signals in dbus-monitor

  Here's a log of what's shown in dbus-monitor:
  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/11992322/

  I'd guess the problem is in the code that actually catches the signals
  and acts accordingly.

  HOW TO REPRODUCE: 
  1) Move to a place where many wifi hotspots are available
  2) Connect the device via USB and run "phablet-shell" and then "dbus-monitor"
  3) Use the device while keeping an eye on dbus-monitor output
