1029894 - Home Screen showing up in multitasking scenarios (Task Switcher and Edge Gestures)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1028419

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::System::Window Mgmt, defect)

Description

[Rob MacDonald [:robmac]]

In today's build, I noticed that a home page sheet is showing up in both the task switcher and when using the edge gesture.

Expected behaviour
The home screen should not be treated as an app in multi-tasking scenarios.

Etienne - Could this be related to smart collections? It's not something I've seen before. - Rob

Dupe of bug 1028419?

Comment 3

[Etienne Segonzac (:etienne)]

Would be great to find solid STR, having a hard time reproducing it (even when forcing the homescreen to restart).

I think I would like to know if this is a dupe first before we look into getting STR here.

None of the bugs has STR, how are we suppose to know?

Well, based off of the symptom here.

Rob - Does bug 1028419 look like the same bug as the one you are talking about here?

Yes it does... Sorry about the dupe. I still don't have a solid STR though.

Just flashed to today's build (https://pvtbuilds.mozilla.org/pvt/mozilla.org/b2g_ril/latest-flame-mozilla-central/) on my flame device and have the same issue.

Steps to Reproduce:
- Flash as per above
- Completed setup and tour flows
- Launched the "Games" smart collection
- Launched Solitaire app
- Tapped home button
- Launched Messaging
- Edge swiped left to Solitaire
- Edge swiped left to blank app (white screen)
- Edge swiped left again to home page app (home icon sheet overlay on top of white screen)

In the task switcher, the top of the stack (rightmost) is a blank sheet labelled "Home Screen" and the bottom of the stack (leftmost) is a blank sheet labelled "Smart Collections"

Flagging Jason, Alive and Etienne on this STR. 

This is definitely a blocker for sheets.

Example of unintended sheet behaviour with home screen and smart collections.

I cannot repro because I don't understand what is 
"- Edge swiped left to blank app (white screen)"
And even I skip the step, I don't see homescreen appear in sheet.

Rob, please provide some video to let us know how to repro it.

Pretty sure this was a dup of bug 1027768.

Hi Alive - I don't seem to be able to reproduce it in today's build. So hopefully this was resolved with the fix to the duplicate bug. Sorry for any confusion! - Rob
