Note on the last RC Volla update (June 3)

[Bolly]

@domubpkm You could try switching off and on, it's not the same as rebooting.

[domubpkm]

@bolly Of course, i tested that too. There is a problem, that's for sure.

[domubpkm]

For those on RC, does the new June 10th update fix the Lomiry crashing issue ?

[Alter]

@domubpkm : I only noticed RC update 53 now. I just downloaded it and will check.

[domubpkm]

I'm in RC again.
Radio app playing + wanting to fully display MMS image at the same time = Lomiri crash : during the relaunch of Lomiri, the song became very loud then back to normal.

[Alter]

@domubpkm : Okay. I don't use that app or MMS. Up till now no restarts. Maybe just luck.
EDIT: Axolotl freezes and auto restart now

[domubpkm]

Perhaps currently a temporary solution may be to restart Lomiri manually from time to time with UTTT (System /services), which would have the effect of resetting certain temporary memories (assumption) and avoiding a crash at the wrong time. I try..

Please update again to latest RC from Friday. Its labelled 2022-W24 (and not the number you see in the update screen, but please check "About" section after phone has been updated for the real version number) and retest that stuff.

@flohack Personally, I updated RC right away and it seems to me that RC has indeed stabilized. In addition I installed to test the all rescent QtWebEngine on top and nothing exploded!
Can you explain in a easy way what you fixed?

[flohack]

@domubpkm Its basically a memory leak we created during updating a few things, and it was fixed in devel and now moved to RC on Friday: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/hybris-support/mir-android-platform/-/merge_requests/31

@flohack said in Note on the last RC Volla update (June 3):

a memory leak

It looked like that indeed. I keep watching but everything seems better

[Alter]

@flohack : thanks for letting us know! Will check too. If there are still issues, I'll let you know.

[domubpkm]

@flohack On my side and at this moment, I confirm that the resolution of this problem of memory leak has done an incredible good on the Volla. I now manage to work in multitasking with several windows open at the same time without Lomiri crashing or resetting a window. I had never experienced this in ANY previous OTA. However, having installed the latest version of QtWebEngine, maybe this also had a positive influence ?!.

[flohack]

@domubpkm Good to hearYou might want to set this one to solved...

I cannot say if that change in QtWebEngine brings that goodness, but yeah, all is possible. Thanks for elaborating on this problem.

[Alter]

@flohack : I can confirm too that it works again.
