In parallel there has been some discussions on bug #1404188 about dropping the usage of network manager backend, even though unlikely in vivid-overlay unless seen as a bullet proof option.
If you want to try out how that would look like, install the silo 032 on rc-proposed but _without_ upgrading the ubuntu-touch-session there. Or if you upgrade ubuntu-touch-session, just move /etc/profile.d/qt_networkmanager_bearer.sh away and reboot. The silo includes also some networking bug fixes besides making the bearer selectable but that's not relevant to this bug. The reason for keeping network manager bearer has been that with that Qt knows about switching between 3G and WiFi. If you use only generic plugin, have both wifi and 3g enabled and disable wifi, QNAM:s fall dead. Or if you use 3G only and enable wifi, 3G might be continued to be used. If those problems could be resolved on lower levels for example (or if they already are, the NM bearer enabling was done over a year ago), we could switch to the generic plugin. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1480877 Title: Access points' "PropertiesChanged" dbus signals freeze UI on mobile devices Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in Unity 8: New Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: New Status in buteo-syncfw package in Ubuntu RTM: New Status in location-service package in Ubuntu RTM: Triaged Status in maliit-framework package in Ubuntu RTM: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu RTM: Incomplete Status in sync-monitor package in Ubuntu RTM: New 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 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1480877/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
