That's strange. Is there no log or reason? I think it cannot happen without a reason...

No log! See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=51951

Edit : you can download it manually there.

Thanks, I have installed it from there and I will test if it works as it should.
Maybe the version number at the bottom should display the full version number and not only 0.3!?

I have found a bug with this app.
I use my N900 in my work and use a plantronict BT headset.
usually the headset connects fine. but now when I connect the headset it does not turn the audio stream off.
wich will consume the battery in a couple of hours.
I did not activate the BT disconnect in this application but the problem came after I upgraded to the version with BT support.

I uninstalled the application and the problem is gone.

I have BT always on and cant say it consume a lot of battery as long its idle.

@Soap77: Weird, I know there's a service that runs just for BT but looking at the script code, it shouldn't interfere with it if you have it disabled in the app's settings.

Try editing the /etc/event.d/autodisconnect file.

Scroll down until you see the two lines that begin with "start on" and comment them out (ie, put a pound sign # at the start of that line). Add a new one line right beneath those two with this:
Code:
start on never
The end result should look like:
Code:
#start on dummyevent
#start on started bluetoothd
start on never
It will prevent the BT "daemon" from even running. Now, I don't know if this will interfere with other stuff in autodisconnect, but looking at the app I shouldn't think so -- Calvin can confirm this. Go to autodisconnect's settings and make sure that it's set to ignore BT activity, then reboot the phone and retry.. See if it solves it.

@DaSilva and Calvin: That is really weird, but you're not the only one.. Other apps have had issues too. They've delayed PR1.2 for so long now (so much so there's an unoficial RC rom in the wild) while the SDK has had the PR1.2 code that the autobuilder is doing really weird stuff -- some apps are being built against the new libraries, for example, making it impossible for people to install or update them. *sigh*

Yes I confirm that. I will add that you don't need to reboot, just run as root :

Code:
initctl stop autodisconnect

Thanks for the info. I have created a ticket there. you can vote for it / add information if you know which other apps are concerned.

Yeah can't wait for the PR1.2 to be released.

Yeah, doh! initctl ftw -- coming from a guy who told you he doesn't like rebooting unless absolutely necessary, that was really stupid of me.

As for the autobuilder.. Dunno what's going on, really. I just know one other app I use (ExtendedCallLog) has had problems too -- one version kept being built with PR1.2 libraries -- and a couple of others on Extras -- that's "regular" extras, the "safest" repository of all three maemo.org -- give me dependency problems if I try to install.

Think they've being going too long with PR1.2 behind the scenes, probably thinking it would be out by now and some stuff gets broken in the repository system -- it depends on what the app uses, it seems. But I don't know of any specifics. I'll vote for your bug, though, they need to sort it once and for all.

OK good news the bug concerning the AutoBuilder has been resolved. See https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10113.

I am waiting for more feedback about the Bluetooth thing now.

Good the see the system works, eh? From the description given by Niels, the issue seems unrelated to the others I mentioned. Still good to see this fixed so fast.

By the way, did you see his request for the Homepage field?

Ahh, and being the nit-picking nag that I am , I'd like to reiterate the other poster's request that you update the version numbers -- at least for the "visual" side of the app (you know, where you fiddle with the settings), just for consistency's sake. As for the scripts, I'd actually prefer if you left the version number unchanged until you actually make a change to that script -- makes it easier to track changes.

@Soap77: did you try the suggestions we made? did it work?

@316comp: remembered the name of the app, BatteryGraph (doh, how easy was that, eh?). You can find it on the Extras repository.

Yep it's nice For the request I did see it and I've corrected it.

For the scripts, I don't change the version of a file if it's not modified. Concerning the visual side of the app I will change it every time. I didn't change it for the 0.3.1 because currently the display is static and I didn't want to recompile the app for nothing.

Cheers!
