1063912 - Camera app claiming there is no SD card/memory card inserted, but it is

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

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

Description

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

Boot2Gecko 2.2.0.0-prerelease 20140905221556 on Geeksphone Keon

The Camera app often claims that there is no SD card inserted, but it is.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Reboot device.
2. Open Camera app.
3. Take a picture.
4. Kill Camera app from card list of open apps.
5. Open Camera app.
6. Kill Camera app from card list of open apps.

Repeat 5 und 6 until you get the message that there is no SD card.

Further information: My Camera app is set to ask me everytime if I want to grant it access to geolocation which I deny without letting it remember the choice.

This may be related to bug 1058016 and/or bug 1058387

I have a suspicion that bug 1040017 caused the bug to surface, and bug 1063877 may have the fix.

So far, I haven't been able to reproduce locally.

I see this too on both my flame and nexus-4. A potentially-relevant logcat:

Once it occurs, it seems to never resolve itself; I must reboot for it to recognize the sd card again.

[Dave Hylands [:dhylands]]

This is probably a dup of bug 1063877

[Mike Habicher [:mikeh] (high bugzilla latency)]

aryx, are you still seeing this issue with recent builds?

Can't reproduce the issue anymore with B2G 2.2.0.0-prerelease 20141007133417 on Geeksphone Keon, so likely fixed by bug 1063877.
