Freezing after update

Dymax · July 19, 2019, 8:54am

My gameshell has just been freezing every 3sec for 4sec after installing v0.4
Anyone else have the same issue or fix?
thx Damien

Solution for freezing: switch to golauncher and then you can swap back to the default and the freezing should stop

installling v0.4 you mean flash the os image to sdcard?

and could you ssh into gameshell run a command

cat /tmp/x.log

paste the result here

Wifi doesn’t seem to be working,
when scanning nothing appears.
I’m also currently using v0.3 but same problem occurs
switched to golauncher, problem solved but still no wifi?

guu · July 19, 2019, 12:14pm

so v0.3 has no wifi??
that’s wired

that should be a big problem

Check if your network is 5Ghz Gameshell doesn’t “see” those networks as it only supports 2.4Ghz

I have 2 2.4ghz networks and 1 5ghz and have connected to them before but now when i go to scan for wifi, the scanning box appears and quickly disappears and i cant use usb-ethernet because i need wifi in the first place.
I’m using v0.4 again because the freezing has stopped

I heard you can do a manual reset on the main board but cant find out how?

hciconfig -a
sudo rfkill list
ps aux | grep brcm
cat /proc/driver/brcmf_fw

paste all results please

Dymax · July 20, 2019, 7:14am

how would i go about running these commands i can’t ssh into the gs

Dymax · July 20, 2019, 7:55am

could it maybe be related airplane mode not fully activating wireless connections?

guu · July 20, 2019, 8:05am

not sure, are you in airplane mode ?

guu · July 20, 2019, 8:06am

can u ssh into gs with usb network?
even there is no wifi, the usb network should work
and the ip is
192.168.10.1

ssh cpi@192.168.10.1

Dymax · July 20, 2019, 8:27am

its just hangs, keeps looking for a connection.
might be doing it wrong but ethernet is plugged into my laptop, do i need a driver for linux?

sorry for the long wait

guu · August 31, 2019, 12:35pm

depends on the results of rfkill, there is no wifi anymore, I dont know why

mine is

cpi@clockworkpi:~$ sudo rfkill list
0: rfkill_gpio: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: hci0: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

I assume your os image is too old?

paste the result of uname -a ,please

Dymax · August 31, 2019, 11:12pm

cpi@clockworkpi:~$ sudo rfkill list
0: rfkill_gpio: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
cpi@clockworkpi:~$ uname -a

cpi@clockworkpi:~$

guu · September 1, 2019, 3:23am

wifi is gone for sure
and the kernel also did not produce the /proc/driver/brcmf_fw

It’s hard to say what is the problem, maybe the wifi chip is really down

if you in one-year warranty,send an email to help@clockworkpi.com ?
