Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Build, defect)

Description

[Raniere Silva]

Attachment: homescreen-without-icons.png

+++ This is a regression bug +++

Steps to reproduce:

1. Connect your Flatfish device
2. Go to your local copy of Gaia source directory
3. Fetch the last updates from https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia.git
4. Select the last version available at https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia.git (when I test it was 57ad1b38adcfeb3a33c925bd6b4773743a1f19f8)
5. Compile and copy Gaia to Flatfish:

   $ GAIA_KEYBOARD_LAYOUTS=en PRODUCTION=1 NOFTU=1 DEVICE_DEBUG=1 REMOTE_DEBUGER=1 GAIA_DEVICE_TYPE=tablet make reset-gaia

6. Wait Flatfish reload Gaia

Actual results:

The Homescreen has no app icons neither the docker.

Expected results:

The Homescreen has some app icons and the docker.

Alexandre, when I undo your changes in eeaf9fe219d0c4df3c5811576eb6d2ca3b598ba7 I could update Gaia at Flatfish without problem. Any advice on this bug?

Ideally you would need to update gecko to a recent version that includes 1006695.
In the meantime, you may stop using DEVICE_DEBUG=1 when flashing gaia.
DEVICE_DEBUG=1 enable sources in the debugger and it appear to crash on some multicore devices. It has been fixed in bug 1006695.

Avoid DEVICE_DEBUG=1 works for me. I'm closing this bug.
