Process nexus-4-7:

ADBTimeoutError: args: adb -s 04be7132cc8bd199 wait-for-device shell svc power stayon true; echo rc=$?, exitcode: None, stdout: 

Since this is not caught in a try block it kills the process which if the error is persistent it will repeat the next time the process is started.

The case in this instance was due to the device hanging during the svc power stayon command. The problem went away in this case when I manually rebooted the device.

1. We should gracefully handle device errors during worker process startup.

2. We should attempt to recover at least once by rebooting the device if at all possible.

Autophone is going away. Resolving these to wontfix.
