Theo, can you use your contacts?

Comment 2

[Gabriele Svelto [:gsvelto] (PTO)]

FYI Peak builds are also missing.

Comment 3

[Théo Chevalier]

Actually, all the build for all the branches are missing since May 12.

I dropped a message to Geeksphone, will update once we know more

Comment 4

[Théo Chevalier]

Geeksphone answered, there is an ongoing server migration at Geeksphone, so there won't be any new build before mid-June.
Leaving this bug open until the migration is complete.

Comment 6

[Flaburgan]

A migration of one month?! Wow...

Comment 7

[Flaburgan]

The current build of 1.4 has a serious problem with the battery, which dies after less than 24h. I understand that you cannot build every nights due to a migration, but maybe you can build manually once per week on the old server (which is still up)? I don't know if the problem is fixed in the current status of the 1.4 branch, but it makes the Keon almost unusable, so please have a look!

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

In the Geeksphone forum, they hope to release new 1.4 and master builds early next week: https://forum.geeksphone.com/index.php?topic=6122.msg64536#msg64536

For those who can't wait I built a gecko+gaia update package for today's master branch for the Peak, you can grab it here: http://people.mozilla.org/~gsvelto/peak-update.zip

To flash it use the following commands:

adb push peak-update.zip /cache/update.zip
adb shell "echo --update_package=/cache/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command"
adb shell sync
adb reboot recovery

Caveats:

- This is for Peak only, don't try it on Keon, if there's interest I can make a similar package for Keon too
- You need to have flashed the latest nightly from http://downloads.geeksphone.com/ for this to work
- This works decently on my phone but could break stuff so tread carefully, as with all master there's no guarantee that it will work correctly

Checking manually for updates on my Keon returns a new update. The web site http://downloads.geeksphone.com/ doesn't offer it yet.

Comment 12

[Flaburgan]

I check manually twice per day and have nothing. What's the commit number you have on your phone? The date indicated in information?

Comment 13

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

I tried to install it (master), went back to May 10 and after reboot keeps finding the same update. I would ignore it for now.

Comment 14

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Update worked fine, got a build from today with git commit from today (9826ce7b): https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/commit/9826ce7b8cae4eea3ed1124d5b2aada1ff2baff0

Comment 15

[Flaburgan]

I still have no update with the 1.4.0.0-prerelease, I guess it was only master.

Comment 16

[Théo Chevalier]

Builds are back on http://downloads.geeksphone.com/ , closing

Comment 17

[alex_mayorga]

http://downloads.geeksphone.com/keon/master/latest_master.html now offers nightly-images-keon-master-2014-06-10.Gecko-9a6a74a.Gaia-0cfb7dd.zip

Comment 18

[anish]

New nightly builds are not available now. Last one is from 2014-06-10. Should we reopen the bug?

Comment 19

[Robert Kaiser]

New builds are actually available, where did you look?

I did get updates to my Peak in the last two days.

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

On http://downloads.geeksphone.com/ . That page is usually several hours behind compared to the updates offered over the update system of the devices. Please were concerned because there had been no updates for Keons on master on the 11th and 12th.

Comment 21

[anish]

No problem. Today's nightly came.

Well, in any case, Geeksphone usually does not reply on bugs, I guess they don't read bugmail. They do reply to posts on http://forum.geeksphone.com/ though, so that's the better venue to go to for thos things in any case.

Comment 23

[Flaburgan]

Builds are now missing again since the 26th of June (Keon, version 1.4 prerelease).

As said before, please report those cases to https://forum.geeksphone.com/ as the GP team is only listening there and not here.

[Binyamin]

This issue hasn't been fixed.
Geeksphone omit their Service Terms and claim that will be no more future ROM images provided, letting their customers stuck on never updated "stable image v1.1 2013-11-19".
