@awe I'm sorry if the two things are mixing up :( I should probably file another bug for the connection loop...
When I filed this bug the softAP didn't exist yet, so that can't have been the cause. We have two (related) problems here: 1) when you're in an area with many access points, many PropertiesChanged signals are fired and they slow down the device for 2-3 seconds 2) when NM gets stuck connecting to a network which doesn't exist, PropertiesChanged signals are fired in an endless loop (well, it pauses 2-3 secs every time before firing all signals again) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1480877 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 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-network/+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
