Update 25 April 2026: We've published Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3 RC 2 which includes necessary updates for the upcoming Volla Phone Plinius.

@Moem I second this, I've been wondering why this was on recent in the inTouch app for who knows how long.

@gpatel-fr for FP5 check my post on how to charge limit, its broken fundamentally but I've used it on mine for almost a year and its fine, but do at you're own risk.

@mf22 said: Most things seem to work, GPS does not. Are you accounting for the fact that we don't have A-GPS?

@tr4in33 said: Guys, how likely is it to port Ubuntu Touch to the Jelly Max? Does it have an unlockable bootloader? Is the kernel source available? Do you own the device and are you willing to risk bricking it in the process? Do you have time and skills, or are you willing to learn? If you can answer Yes to all of these, then it's potentially viable.

@Jules yes, since 24.04, rc 1,2 and 3 on a volla quintus with UT as single os. Additionally phone sometimes switches to "L" after leaving home, but has no mobile data. Then, as a workaround I switch to flightmode and back, then it searches again and is connecting correctly.

opus 4.6 had a go at this and it flailed around quite a bit and in the end it came up with this bash script that doesn't even require root: fix-lomiri-spinner-install.txt I told it to be verbose in the script so you can read what it does and whether it's safe at your own discretion - keep in mind that any part of it may be hallucinated and made up. tl;dr: According to it, it really is the splash screen spinner, and this workaround will stop the spinning on splash screens after 15 seconds. Basically it makes a fake new version of the lomiri qml theme that symlinks all files from the current theme, but replaces the qml file for splash screens with a new qml file that disables the spinning circle on splash screens after 15 seconds. Then creates a systemd user service that sets QML2_IMPORT_PATH to that new theme. Seems to work here, but as always, run AI generated scripts at your own risk, or anyone else, feel free to create a better workaround or upstream fix based on this info. I assume there should be two fixes coming from this: 1) don't waste cpu cycles on window animations for windows that are fully covered by other windows, 2) make the spinner animation render in a way that doesn't cause upwards of half a cpu core total cpu usage.
