Just a quick update of where i am at, at present.

There are a bundle of new features i am working on, i will put a few new releases into extras-devel - but not send anything into testing until PR1.2 comes out - as i will need to sort out the version numbers.

So far included and working are:
  • LED Pattern selector
  • Vibrate Pattern selector
  • Sound Test selector

To be added soon:
  • More space / disk information
  • Proximity checker
  • Dead pixel screen test
  • Bluetooth information checker
  • More detailed accelerometer and GPS Info
  • SQL Info - if i can (Amount of SMS data etc) - not sure on this one yet.
  • External IP addresses
  • Better graphics / ease of use
  • Individual updates + constant reads - such as accelerometer data.


I'm still interested to hear of any other information.

For those having issues on install, the software does call on alot of modules on installation. This is because it is trying to test alot of things.
I have added quite thorough debugging into the programme, and i'm adding even more!
To get to the debugging, go in x-terminal (On every device)
type

Code:
python /opt/healthcheck/healthcheck.py
The program will then dump the debug lines into x-terminal, you can then paste it into here, or screenshot it (CTRL+SHIFT+P) and upload the image as an attachment.

When i get home tonight i will list all of the extra modules used and hopefully how to recify any possible issues, like gobject and hildon issues.

Secondly, there have been two people mentioning a battery drain with healthcheck, obviously i would like to prove either way, and have run my own tests... so far it hasn't happenned to me... So it could be device/dependency specific.
Running conky at the same time(or htop) should help you identify any other issues.

Anyway, happy healthchecking, and will update you all with a shiny new version for testing soon!
