Known Issues in Diagnostics Application:
Android:
Redmi/Xiaomi devices needs to grant permissions manually (cannot grant automatically unlike other manufacturers).
Operator must wait for auto launch for Redmi/Xiaomi devices after installing it manually. Should not click on 'OPEN' button which appears on the device popup after app installation is completed. BMDE will auto launch the app after a delay of 1/2 seconds.
“Modify system settings” is required for LCD backlight / Auto Rotation test. After API upgrade restrictions, we cannot modify the system settings without user permissions/Automatically. App will open a setting page for allowing this setting.
Device will be locked automatically depending on timeout set in settings. We cannot restrict device to stop auto locking as we were doing it previously (In earlier BMDE versions before 3.6).
Device's Adaptive brightness/Auto brightness setting should be OFF before starting diagnostics. To turn it off, go to Settings >> Display >> Adaptive brightness/Auto brightness.
To install app, device must be unlocked (not screen locked). This is due to API restriction for OS 8.0 and above.
Device brightness should be 80% before starting Diagnostics - This feature has been disabled due to API restriction (PHEN ticket is raised).
iOS:
System’s Instruction popup is not getting displayed for fingerprint test while retesting from report page. This is OS limitation and observed in default apps as well.
