I saw this last night on my 11/5 OTA.  Let me know if you need my device to debug.

The most suspicious-looking errors from clee's phone were

E/GeckoConsole(  389): [JavaScript Error: "NotFoundError: The operation failed because the requested database object could not be found. For example, an object store did not exist but was being opened." {file: "app://homescreen.gaiamobile.org/js/state.js" line: 68}]

The 11-6 stable update was promoted with this bug.  It has decommissioned my dogfooding phone because of loss of core functionality.

Considering that we respun a build for the *nightly* channel to pick up the fix to this bug, I suggest that we do the same for the stable channel.

I'll trigger the update today with this fix in it.

Actually, we promoted the 11-05 stable build which did not have this issue caught by QA/smoketests.  There needs to be investigation into how such a regression could slip past.

Agree, we should fine out why this wasn't caught in our nightly->stable update process.

new update is available to testers on the stable channel now.

Confirmed, dogfooding phone back in commission.

I had rearranged the icons on my homescreen, and I had installed an e.me app.  Maybe one of those two things triggered the bug?

[Julien Wajsberg [:julienw]]

Chris, this bug was actually triggered by an error in Gaia code...

Verified fixed after updating to 11-12 build.
