Issues with wifi and search in Pixie patch 2 (54c85a0f)

Issues 2502 Pixie
1

After the patch 2 update, there would be constant wifi disconnect and failure to connect automatically, with no indication and seemingly no rhyme or reason why it’s happening; you’d have to check for yourself to see if wifi is working.

The search function is also currently not working as intended; entering a search won’t show any results, this worked as intended in previous versions of Pixie.

I have the same issue with search. But network works fine. I’m using 40xxv

I cannot speak to the Wi-Fi issues as I believe Patch 2 was intended to resolve these, it’s always worth checking your own internet in these cases, a lot of the time the device may be sitting on a congested channel.

In regards to search, this is a current known issue. Thankyou

I encountered both of the issues you mentioned above. Occasionally, the Wi-Fi appears to be connected but doesn’t actually work, and I have to restart the device for it to function properly. Additionally, the search feature doesn’t work at all. I use RG-Cube-XX (54c85a0f)

I don’t know if this is consistent, but I’ve noticed that the wifi issue tends to happen when the device is plugged into my PC via USB. The USB mode is MTP, and the device is RG35XX H if that helps.

Scratch that. I wasn’t able to replicate it, so it must’ve been a coincidence, maybe.

This was an oversight on my part, the search functionality uses ripgrep (rg) to do the heavy lifting. When I was doing my final release updating I forgot to add PCRE2 functionality to it. However please download the following attachment and install via the Archive Manager.

As for the Wi-Fi issues, it is quite difficult to determine what your issue is specifically.

I have noticed one thing multiple times in the past couple of days. In the latest version of pixie i.e. 2502-54c85a0f, if I just leave my device to go to sleep on its own or even press the power button for few seconds and let the device go to sleep and then start the device back, trying to connect wifi hangs the system and doesn’t connect.

I mean when the device turns back on from sleep the wifi is disconnected, so I go to settings > connectivity > wifi and then try connect, it says trying to connect and almost 90 percent of times it hangs. But as soon as I do a safe reboot or a safe shutdown and start, it works fine after that.

Just wanted to share what I experienced.

The following commit will most likely fix this issue as we now disconnect from the network then unload the network module on suspend, and do the reverse on wake.
