[Bug 1426467] Re: Indicator can fail to display panel icon

 

Also, during the same round of testing I reported bug #1426876, which
describes how the user can enter a PIN on the SIM unlock screen and have
it not take effect.  This occurs more frequently than the problem
described by this bug.

I just lowered the Importance to High, as it's extremely hard to
reproduce this bug.  I've hit it 3 or 4 times out of 100 reboots.

That said, if it's possible to identify the conditions in which the
indicator can start, but not display any panel icons, the indicator
should be re-factored to never do this.  The cellular modem is a dynamic
complex pieces of hardware and the indicator needs to be tolerant of
what may seem to be invalid states which may exist temporarily.

** Changed in: indicator-network (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Critical => High

** Description changed:

  current build number: 122
  device name: krillin
  channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed
  
  It's possible for the device to boot in such a manner that the network-
  indicator doesn't display an icon on the top panel ( see attached
  screenshot ).
  
- I was testing a change to ofono ( currently in silo ubuntu-013 ) which
- fixes a MTK-specific bug where the device boots and the 2nd SIM slot
- isn't recognized.  So to test, I continually rebooted the device.  I
- have two SIMs installed, the first unlocked, the second is locked.

  after booting.
  
  I checked using 'ps' and an indicator-network process is running,
  however when I checked /home/phablet/.cache/upstart, there only
  indicator-network log files I see are the saved .gz files.  There's no
  unzipped/current indicator-network.log.  The .gz log file with the most
  recent timestamp shows a single log message:

  void core::dbus::Property<T>::handle_changed(const core::dbus::types::Variant&) [with PropertyType = org::freedesktop::URfkill::Interface::Killswitch::Property::State]: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
  
  I checked and urfkilld is running on the system.
  
  I also verified that there were no crash files present on the system.
  
  I also checked and there was nothing relevant in syslog.
  
  This bug is hard to reproduce as well.  I've hit it 4 or 5 times out of
  a total of maybe 45-50 reboots.
