[BangleJS2] Corrupted flash after quite heavy use

The bug

After few weeks of rather heavy use (I was debugging Space Weaver, so writing ~1MB images), I got flash corruption. This time, I'm not aware of ever running low on battery. I was using web IDE to upload (rather small) sixths.app.js and run it, I got something about "upload failed, trying to recover", and then I got flood of:

Status 0 FW addr 0x001a2e00 fail Status 0 FW addr 0x001a2f00 fail Status 0 FW addr 0x001a3000 fail Status 0 FW addr 0x001a3100 fail

...and similar. I did not catch begining of the flood and IDE does not have big-enough scrollback.

Installed apps

No response

This was in Web IDE's logs:

Watch is stuck in "BangleJS 2v18" screen with copyright. (I'd not mind bigger font there). IDE can't connect. If I hold the button, it adds "Loading..." and is stuck there. If I hold button for some more, I get "Checking storage... Storage is corrupt." and I'm getting intro screen. Time to pull the backup, I'm afraid.

[pavelmachek]

Hmm. Yesterday I installed "adjust clock" widget. I understand it writes to filesystem a lot and in strange times. Could it be related?

[gfwilliams]

Hi - yes, I think the best bet is to apply a backup.

If you have stuff on there you want to keep that isn't backed up, you could try making a backup, deleting any obviously corrupted filenames from the zip, then erasing to factory settings and 'restoring' from the zip (without the 'delete all' option).

Is it likely you were doing anything with StorageFile (not just Storage - the one that uses require("Storage").open(...)). That's been the thing that seemed like the biggest culprit lately, and I did make some changes that are in the cutting edge builds to try and fix that

[pavelmachek]

Yes, I have -- let logfile = require("Storage").open("sixths.egt", "a"); -- and then write to it a bit, so that's possible culprit.

[gfwilliams]

Ahh - interesting. I bet that'll be it then.

If you move to the cutting edge build hopefully that'll fix it for you!

I think this is a duplicate of #2865 - please reopen (there) if you see this again though
