929106 - Pressing "stop" to kill an app on the device doesn't do anything with FFOS 1.3

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(DevTools Graveyard :: WebIDE, defect, P1)

Description

[James Long (:jlongster)]

I'm using Nightly 2013-10-19, and Firefox OS 1.3.0.0-prerelease. If I connect the App Manager to my device, and install a packaged app from my computer (just a simple demo app), and launch it by pressing  "start", I can't kill it by pressing "stop".

The "stop" button doesn't seem to do anything. No errors in the browser console, adb logcat, or anything.

I downgraded my device to 1.2, and it *does* work, so it's the fault of 1.3.

My device is a Geeksphone Peak.

It works on the 1.3 Simulator from 2013-09-29, so either the issue is device specific, or it broke between 9-29 and 10-19.

Fixed by bug 933380.

Verified on Aurora 28.0a2 on Win 7 64-bit and Mac 10.9.
The apps are stopped if Simulator 1.2, 1.3 or B2G 1.2.0.0-prerelease unagi device are used.

On an unagi device with Firefox OS 1.3.0.0-prerelease version, the apps can be stopped only if they were opened before connecting the device to computer. 
Pressing Start will open the app on the device, but the app is not updated with Debug / Stop in the App Manager page. 

Should I file a new bug for this issue? Thank you

It may be related to bug 966988. Could you open a bug if that still occurs once it lands?
(that patch targets the device, not firefox)

The issue described in comment 5 is still reproducible (bug 966988 landed), I've filed bug 970231.

On the other hand, the issue described in this bug is now fixed, I'm removing the verifyme keyword.
