Tapping button while screen is touched may drop button event #2346
Description
Verification
- I searched for similar bug reports (including closed issues) and found none was relevant.
What happened?
Tapping the side button while the screen is touched may drop button toggle events.
What should happen instead?
Tapping the side button while the screen is touched does not drop any events.
Reproduction steps
- Open any app (not necessary but useful for demonstration)
- Hold touch on the screen
- Tap the side button
Possible outcomes:
- The screen goes back to the apps list. This is when the bug fails to trigger. Try again.
- The button press does not go through.
- The screen goes directly to the watch face. At this point you can release the screen touch and wait. It will further go to the watch info page, as though the button was still pressed.
Reproducing this bug should take around 5-10 tries, it's not extremely rare.
More details?
In the third outcome listed where there is still a phantom held button press, the watch will not reset like it normally does if the button is held for a very long time.
I believe the bug is caused by the interrupt mode used for the screen and button. The low accuracy mode used cannot handle more than one active pin at a time (source). Changing the interrupts to use high accuracy mode by changing pinConfig.hi_accuracy on line 155 of src/systemtask/SystemTask.cpp to true does indeed seem to fix this issue, but mark9084 in the Pine64 discord informed me that this could increase power draw by 60uA if the high frequency clock is not already running (they provided this link to relevant documentation) so this may not be a desirable fix.
