I tried "Reset->Restore settings" and then restored from backup. That did not cure smartsearch, but introduced a new battery drain with email sync described in

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=440

I then deleted and recreated mail account, and holy cow, that fixed smartsearch also! I have a syslog snapshot from the non-working and working smartsearch. Let me know if you have still troubles with smartsearch and want bug report filed. However, I don't have anything to debug anymore, just couple of syslog files.
I'm not sure which bug no. the smartsearch issue is associated with.
But the 2nd issue you mentioned is to do with bug #198...

Perhaps you could describe your findings & share your syslogs there?
#198 is apparently resolved, but the smartsearch issue may be referenced in the comments.

One of the devs may know where it belongs, or some searching of the tracker may find it.

I don't think the mail issue I had is same as in bug #198.

I'm puzzled why my smartsearch problem disappeared same time as mail issue. I have had the smartsearch running wild from the very first (or maybe second) day from purchase. Even without mail problems.

smartsearch looks like unrelated problem. In the logs smartsearch related lines are basically same for non-functioning and functioning smartsearch, until non-functionin just stops logging. Nothing similar found on bugtracker, either.

If other people would have this problem as bad I guess there would be much more complaints. Phone is (was...:)) unusable without killing smartsearch after reboot, it runs very hot and battery lasts only couple of hours.

In #198's comments there's issues described that are similar to yours.
It may relate to a ticket lodged (or not) for a fundamentally a diff. issue.
But there still could be invaluable info. in those syslogs.
So I'd encourage you to share them with Nokia devs. You never know.

Re: smartsearch eating CPU on N9
 
Smartsearch is eating up my cpu since last night., I hav my N9 for like two to three weeks now and it just started now.
Any solution for that? I allready removed all my mail accounts without luck.

For how long did that process run for you? some hours? days? Never ending?

1. Did you restart after removing your mail accounts ? ...

2. Have you any other accounts there ? (like fb) - can you try just disable all them (for a moment, to see does it make any difference, so do not remove them, just disable each account ... then it is easy to enable them later again, after you see does it make any true difference) ... I think that you have to restart after that too ...

3. There is a suggestion of other user, so you could try too: "Completely remove the /home/user/.cache/tracker directory and rebooted. That got recreated, then smartsearch took some CPU for a very brief time. After that everything seemed to be back to normal." ... Use Filebox apps to do that (enable hidden files in Filebox, so you can find it) ... I just cleaned that folder by that way, to check could it be a proper advice - yes, it is possible, but I have not a such current SmartSearch problem here, so I can not advice you is it really a fix ...

SmartSearch usually has only few peaks on the beginning and then it disappears (I have never seen it to continue for long) ...

Hope that this gives you some idea how to fix it and I wish you luck to fix it - if you can do it, please tell us too :)

Sounds like a runaway prog.

I would first open a trerminal and type: kill <PID #>
Maybe restart after that, but should not be needed.

If smartsearch is owned by 'root', become root first: devel-su password: rootme (note that the password doesn't show).

Restart is needed, to know is it a real solution ... I think that killing a process is just easy fix (a problem reappear after restart) ...

well, what I tried so far is deleting (!) mail accounts followed by a device restart. And of course I tried killing smartsearch, it took the topstop of the list faster than one could say "stupid smartsear....", but thanks for the suggestion anyway. I did that like 10 time in a row...

Disabeling all other accounts (like Mfe, twiiter, skype, flicker, no FB!) did not help either. I even did a restart after disabeling (not deleting...)

deleting said folder Is not allowed, even in busybox whilst beeing root and using rmdir (via ssh)... the folder is empty anyway

I got the suspicion that it has something to do with music player indexing, I'll try to mess around with this a bit... otherwise I'm gonna do a reflash by tomorrow night...

Well, no luck ... can you try to add some song to Music folder - to see does it make any difference (it could make N9 to update library, reindex it) ...
