Some noob questions I'm sure - screen waking up constantly and ssl certificates

DaffyDucker

Hi all,

I have a pixel 9a running the latest graphene os stable version, and curiously I'm having an issue where the screen constantly wakes up.

If I lock the phone and set it down, the screen stays black for a new seconds, then it wakes itself as if there's a notification (there isn't). Then about 5 seconds later, the screen dims, after another 5 seconds, the screen goes black again, and after another 5 seconds, it wakes up, and this cycles repeats and repeats.

I've tried disabling/enabling all sorts of things. Turned off raise to wake, tap to wake, etc. the only thing that was worked is turning off notifications on the lock screen entirely. So it seems to be a "notification" of some sort, but no new notifications show on the lock screen. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?

Also, side note - my phone updated to the latest graphene OS update a few days ago. It seems to have broken the cloud flare ssl certificate for apps. Vanadium (browser) works fine to log into my jellyfin, but any app installed that connects to my server (jellyfin, findroid, etc) can't connect via https, only http. Do I need to install a generic cloudflate ssl certificate manually? Or can someone point me to a resource that can set me in the right direction?

Thank you all!! Excited to join the open source community!

Sounds to me like you have an app that's spawning a notification repeatedly. Do you have something like a phone tracking app active?

Cloudflare is not a publicly trusted Certificate Authority (CA). The only time you would use a TLS cert that isn't signed by a CA (aka Origin Certificate) is if you're securing a connection between your server and Cloudflare's network for proxying through them.

If you're self hosting and you own a domain. It's about a million times easier to use genuine, publicly trusted, TLS certs. Especially if cloudflare is your registrar. Use something like nginx proxy manager, caddy, or traefik if you want to make it super easy.
