storage setValue error

4.1.4/win/eclipse

on some devices I have an error  when trying save something in storage:

1. in app.onStop() - only in foreground I call app.savedata() (I need func because I need save data in few moments).

2. savedata() is called and inside I try to call STO.setValue() and errors:

A Error Name: System Error (vívoactive® 3 Music: 6.20) - 3 arrays[80] of float (each 415 bytes according to memory monitor), 1 array[20] of float (70bytes) and few integers

B Error Name: File Not Found Error (Forerunner® 945: 9.00) - saving dictionary (a bit complicated)

A - I don't think I exceed any limits

B - system detach storage before onStop()?

  • Yes, this storage issue is still pretty common. I get it mostly on Edge 540/840/1040 and Edge Explore 2 devices, but it can also hapen on Fenix 7 and others.

    In the App.onStop, I get in ERA:

    The line 66 is just Storage.deleteValue("recording_active");

    The same error can happen also if you write into storage:

    The line 27 in the AppProperties.set is just:
    static function set(key, value) {
    	try {
    		Storage.setValue(key, value);
    		return;
    	} catch (e) { //...
    	}
    }
    Seems the try/catch exception is never called for the System Error, which means it crashes the app with the IQ! error. It seems to be a firmware issue... The storage is probably not initialized, or the app tries to read/write at one time. Maybe the user is running out of an available storage (but in this case, the Out Of Storage exception should be called).
    Seems that we can't do anything about this (as developers). Any ideas here?
    Sometimes I also get the Error Name: File Read Error, or Error Name: Unexpected Type Error (but it may be a different issue).
  • Me too, but most in APAC devices.

  • I'm still seeing these crashes Disappointed

  • 1. You have to have free memory to resign from storage.

    2. Unfortunately priorities have also bug on some devices when system sometimes can't find settings.

  • for what it's worth, i've changed my code to no longer user Storage and have moved back to only using Properties.  No more bugs reported in Era viewer.   Shrug
