Hi,

before you chop my head off, please listen ;)

I did a lot of (google and xda) searching and i indeed found some useless discussions in Q&A section a.k.a. "what is that" "can i delete that" yada yada yada... . I know what it is, but i wanna disable it. And in Q&A obviously not that many capable ppl/cooks take a look. Thats the reason why i post here...

As this is not rom-related (happens with(out) sense roms on 2.2 and 2.3), i wonder if it's some default kernel routine, which can be altered. Or maybe just some textual setting in a config file?

As this is kinda annoying, if you use the dhd in a silicon case, where the two buttons are hit very often simultaniously, a solution would be great.

Any ideas?

thx in advance

hi,

hitting both buttons the same time, it vibrates, takes some time to generate a 2-4mb bugreport on /sdcard/bugreports , vibrates 2 times again when its finished.

meanwhile the dhd is completly laggy and not to be used, which is annoying when you get it out of your pocket just to type a text or answer a call

also happens if screen is off. i am currently on cm7 nightly #36

i didn't checked if it creates a bug report but i never had my phone laggy when i pressed that two. just tested it. it even does not vibrate.

never had it on stock neither on my current leedroid 2.2.2 or any prvious leddroid rom.

Pressing the two buttons (vol +/-) creates a bug report on Mighty Nutella (CM7).. never noticed this though :)

If you disable it your phone will probably get laggy due to the buggy init process

i don't know of cm7 but in the latest stock and also in several custom roms this has been already fixed for long time.

but on custom roms you may hit a different problem without usb debugging: it can happen that you get bootloops after rebooting without usb debugging on.

unfortunately this is going exactly the q&a direction, where i didnt wanna go. check the links in #3, there is everything mentioned you posted so far.

maybe a developer/cook can take a look at it or has an opinion.

thx.

Would be nice to know if this can be disabled. I have the same problem with the gel case putting pressure on both buttons when I pull it out of my pocket. Even worse is when its got both volume buttons pressed and I press Power to wake the screen. Instant reboot.
I know this is by design, but like the OP, I would also like to know if it can be disabled.

hmm, funny... after some more trys i managed to get the same behaviour :D
but it doesn't happen allways. in my case it is quite difficult to reproduce it, but possible.

Let me just point the OP to Chef Central for this. Obviously this is a Chef/dev question, and it's likely occurring on multiple devices.

Thread will be moved there.

so thats why it always vibrates by itself!
somebody please find a way to disable this! All those bugreports had 1gb of space used!!! obviously deleted now but before I was wondering why i had such a small amount of space..

Yep i can confirm that as well, CM7 latest nightly, it's annoying because you are listening to music it's a in a phone sock, you go to press a button to turn it up, you press both by accident, **** hits the fan.

Como
Somewhere, in your BOOT.IMG, there's an ".rc" file with these rows:
Code:
# bugreport is triggered by the KEY_VOLUMEUP and KEY_VOLUMEDOWN keycodes or triggered by projectmenu
service bugreport /system/bin/dumpstate -d -v -o /sdcard/bugreports/bugreport
    user root
    disabled
    oneshot
    keycodes 115 114
I simply deleted the last one and bugreport is not annoying LEANdroid's users anymore! :D

ps. I also modified the description row in this way:
Code:
# bugreport is triggered by projectmenu
