1121232 - [Privacy Panel][Remote Privacy Protection] Closing Privacy Panel in the Task Manager prevents first received RPP feature from functioning.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia, defect)

Description

[Martin Shuman [:Marty]]

Attachment: logcat-RPP-Task-Manager.txt

Description:
If the user Closes the Privacy Panel in the Task Manager, the next received RPP function (Locate, Ring, Lock) will not work, but instead will be received like an ordinary SMS.  With the receipt of the SMS, the Privacy Panel will launch in the background, and any further RPP functions received will then function properly, unless the Privacy Panel is closed in the Task Manager again.
   
Repro Steps:
1) Update a  device to BuildID: 20150113010202
2) Open Settings and navigate to Privacy Panel.
3) Progress past the Guided Tour, and select Remote Privacy Protection
4) Configure a Passphrase and enable the RPP Lock function
5) Long-Press the Home button to open Task Manager and Swipe Up to close Privacy Panel.
6) From a second device, send 'RPP lock <PASSPHRASE>' in an SMS to the DUT
7) Re-send the same SMS to the DUT
  
Actual:
The first RPP Function will not work after Privacy Panel is closed in the Task Manager. The second RPP Function will work after Privacy Panel re-starts in the background.
  
Expected: 
Received RPP Functions will always work when enabled in the Privacy Panel.

Here's a possible fix which waits until all settings have been observed before calling events. I think we might be missing a few settings calls here. If that's the case, this might fix it.

NI EPM for nominating 2.2 blocker.

Comment 3

[Josh Cheng [:josh]]

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the help here. I think this is blocker because function broken. 
Will you take this bug?
Thanks!

Comment 4

[marta]

Kevin, any suggestions how to proceed?

Comment 5

[Kevin Grandon :kgrandon]

I'm not sure where we stand here. Is it still broken even with the patch? It seems like that fixes at least 1 race condition, but maybe there are more?

Comment 6

[Gerry Chang [:gchang]]

Hi Kevin, 
Sorry for late response. I've tried your patch and RPP feature can work well after closing Privacy Panel in the Task Manager.

Can you r+ Josh?

Comment 9

[Josh Cheng [:josh]]

Hi Marta,
I am not sure I am the right one to review the patch as I majorly focus on PM side of work. Do you know who else can review the code?

Comment 10

[marta]

Kevin? I mean its mostly your code so not sure who should review it....

Comment 11

[Kevin Grandon :kgrandon]

*shrug* I don't really remember writing it, but I can review it if you want, or if it *is* 100% my code, then you could even review it if you wanted? I know it fixed at least 1 race condition, not sure if it fixed the issue though?

Feel free to change the flag to me if that makes sense. I'm fine going either way here.

Let's let Marta respond to comment 11.

I'm not sure what % of this patch is mine, or if it fixes the problem in this bug.

Comment 14

[marta]

It is the code we worked on in SF, and the patch you proposed applied to the master. And as per comment 6, the patch works.

As in attached figure, we recieve the message first time, the screen will not be locked, if we resend this code agian, the device will be locked after few second later.

Comment 24

[(PTO June 19-July 7) Ryan VanderMeulen]

That's a question for the bug assignee.

Comment 25

[Kevin Grandon :kgrandon]

I probably won't have time to get to this in 2.2 unfortunately. Marta - could you by chance look into 2.2? Not sure why it wouldn't work there, are we missing other privacy panel patches from 2.2?

Comment 26

[marta]

I'm currently requesting uplifting other PP patches. Lets see if that helps

Comment 27

[Pi Wei Cheng [:piwei] (inactive)]

This issue is verified fixed on Flame 2.2. I notice a lag of a few seconds between receiving text and performing the action (lock/ring/locate)(though I don't know what 'locate' actually does, it seems to only turn on receiving device's Geolocation for several seconds but I don't see any feedback on sending device), but it does perform the first texted action on receiving end after they killed privacy controls.
