Spacedesk doesn't reconnect when waking up from sleep.

Page 1 of 2Next

Since the last few versions Spacedesk (USB) doesn’t reconnect when waking up from sleep.

I checked everything I thought it might cause this:

BIOS CPU C-States: Tried Enabled and Disabled.

USB selective suspend: Tried enable and disabled (I always have it disabled).

USB Connection in my tablet: Usually if I toggle from MTP to No data transfer and viceversa it came to life. Not anymore, no matter what I try.


Seems like the driver is unable to reconnect.

It works fine when booting from scratch. The problem happens only when coming back from sleep.

Even if I log in after waking up the PC, the driver doesn’t auto-reconnect. I need to manually turn the driver Off / On in order to make it work.

A temporary solution would be to be able to install an old version, but that is not possible.

 

Best Regards.

Matias.

Same issue here. I had never updated the app before, but after resetting my PC, I had to reinstall it, and the only version available now is the latest one. Since then, it won’t auto connect after waking up from sleep mode.

My only workaround is to restart the PC, end the spacedesk app from Task Manager and relaunch it, or toggle the Android USB cable driver off and on every time the PC wakes up from sleep mode.

Hi @sacco, @gluten,

we released new spacedesk Driver v2.2.03 with a potential bug fix to this issue. Please try it and let us know if the issue is resolved.

I encountered the same problem as the original poster.
Actually, this problem is because I installed the latest version 2.2.03, and the official website did not provide the installation package of the old version. I cried.

Hi @ei,

if you are having installation issues, please check our user manual topic “Troubleshooting uninstall”.

If the original issue of this topic is still happening in spacedesk Driver v2.2.03, please send us the logs of your spacedesk server machine for further analysis.

Open spacedesk Driver Console as administrator and click on Diagnostics then follow the steps below:

1. Download the DebugView.
2. Check the Diagnostic Collection box.
3. Reproduce the issue e.g. by connecting the spacedesk Viewer app via USB cable.
4. Uncheck the Diagnostic Collection box.
5. Click “Save All Information” button (this might take a while to finish).
6. Compress/Zip the folder which contains the logs, then attach to your next reply to this post. If the folder exceeds 512kb, you may upload it to Dropbox or Google Drive then include the download link on your next reply.

 

I’m not the PO, but have the same trouble with v.2.2.03 with loosing connection when going to sleep and not reconnecting afterwards – my Android SpaceDesk app still believes to be connected and shows that “Connection lost” screensaver.

See attached DebugView.

It’s “Connected – Display OFF” bouncing there, not Connection lost. But the connection IS lost.

Hi @olaf-lischke,

it seemed that the diagnostics did not include the machine going to sleep. Could you please send a new one – from going to sleep and then waking up?

Here you go…
