Try with 0.9-56 which should be on devel any minute now.

Changelog is
* small changes to restarting services when not choosing to autoreboot
* un-needed backups are automaticly removed now

I changed all killalls to dsmetool shutdown and startup -method.

Sorry, I'm fixing / implementing new stuff pretty much on the fly when my brains gets something fixed up. I really haven't had a lot of time to actually do all things promised here (yet) :)

No problem, take your time :)

I'm so sorry to say, but now it's even worse than before.
MyContacts was not running, I changed font in theme customizer, applied changes and after saying sthg like "restarting services" the desktop was crap again. But in difference to before, all icons were put to top left corner. I could open top in xterm by system menu but I didn't get the focus to that window. So I again had to reboot ...
Good side: the desktop didn't get completely messed up, like it does somtimes, when that hildon stuff dies. After reboot everything was fine again. (Before it was restored too, you shall not think it messed up my desktop every time).

OK, it's not as easy as it sounds:
  1. changing directly after upgrade with MyContacts not running failed
  2. changing after reboot with MyContacts not running succeeded
  3. changing after first success with MyContacts running failed
It's reproducable that MyContacts prevents desktop from getting restarted. So it looks like being the same behaviour as before. But somehow I think, it was faster before. :o

Yes, killall is faster than dsmetool first shutting it down' then sleep for few seconds and then start them up with dsmetool again.

I'll revert back to killall and investigate if I can shutdown the mycontacts before killing the desktop and then start mycontacts again.

Just realized: after last change the system dock was gone (where clock and connection state is displayed). Only items left were button for accessing application list and name of provider. (sorry, forgot to take a screenshot). Obviously something didn't get restarted correctly. Besides that, everything else worked fine.

Okay, try 0.9-57

Now it detects if mycontacts is running, kills it, then kills desktop etc and finally starts all of those including mycontacts if it was running in the first place.

****. It works fine on my device :D I installed MyContacts just to test it out and it's working :(

Edit: just to make sure, is the program called "crochik's mycontacts"?
