@mr_growl I also found this and thought it was interesting. It is regarding Mobian, but does mention the Google Pixel 3a working and receiving calls. https://blog.mobian.org/posts/2025/02/early-2025-news/ Also, Droidian has a Halium 12 port for Volla Phone. https://github.com/droidian-images/droidian/releases/tag/droidian%2F101.20250906

@wilson101 OK sure do as you prefer! The last thing I can say is that normally you must have the compiled module in your application in qml-plugins/Pparent/Notifications/libNotificationsPlugin.so and qml-plugins/Pparent/Notifications/qmldir Then you can include the qml module dir in c++ with QQmlApplicationEngine engine; engine.addImportPath("qml-plugins"); That's all I can say! I wish you good luck!

@Vlad-Nirky thanks for the info, then it may be my mobile provider which causes the issue.

@atarilinux I can confirm this behaviour. But only the notification/ ringing of the incoming call is transmitted with this ugly noise. After accepting the call, the call itself is continued without an unwanted noise. Only the call-notification is affected. Noble daily 313

@mihael said in Whatsweb app upgrade.: I preferred to have a website opened as a tab in Morph instead of having it separately in a webapp-container - it seemed to me to use less battery. Probably because Morph suspends some of its tabs. I guess it's also because currently in a webapp, the webview is not minimized/hidden, if the app is unsuspended in background, as I did in Whatsweb (which is pretty simple to do), so the view keeps being rendered. ( Versus considered minimized and do not compute rendering). I guess that tabs in background in morph, if they are really still running, might be actually considered as minimized, and do not compute rendering. Although I did not know Morph would keep several tabs running in parallel and I guess it could be a problem if we forget tabs running in background.

@XPran You need to turn off the phone, and then boot with long push on "power" and "volume up" buttons at the same time, until you see a "Recovery Menu", then select the first option "Boot recovery", then connect it in USB to your computer and the installer should work fine. Select Ubuntu Touch 24.04, and sit back & relax while the installer is doing its job.

@pparent said in Taking the plunge: It's aslo the banks that edit passports? I'm not sure. I live here but this is not my country. Banks handle secure identification for just about anybody else here though - government website, justice, healthcare, DMV, post office, insurance companies, utilities...everything. It never fails to blow my mind that the locals are okay with private financial institutions basically spying on your every important moves online - the ones where you have to use your real identity: if you have business with anything or anyone in an official capacity, they know whom you deal with and when. But at least one of my colleagues got a painful reminder: he tried to get a loan to buy a new house and his application was declined for no reason that seemed to make sense, since he never missed a payment or got so much as a parking ticket. After some digging around with a friend who worked at the bank, it turned out the bank figured he had a drinking problem based on appointments he made online with his identity at the local equivalent of the AA and classified him as a potentially delinquent wino. And another thing that blows my mind is: it doesn't seem to bother any of the local politicians that the entire life of the country - since most everything is done online here - is entirely dependent on two foreign mobile OS vendors operating in a fascist country, with a history of abusive monopolistic practices and privacy invasion. Because I guarantee you, if the local banks know what you're doing here, Google and Apple do too. If this was my country, I'd be distressed that those two companies are the virtual gatekeepers of the entire communication infrastructure of the country. It's totally nuts if you think about it.

@pparent said in Signal UT: Signal-Desktop for Ubuntu Touch: @adorsaz Thank's by the way, can you tell us if the "Lock"/"Unlock" trick works for you to make "Enter" and "Backspace" of the virtual keyboard work? Yes if I lock the phone while Signal UT is foreground, these two keys work well after unlock. Then I can switch to other application and go back to Signal UT and it still works without need to do the trick again.

@gpatel-fr said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1: @peat_psuwit Switched from 24.04.1 daily to RC on my newly installed FP5 Noticed 3 details: the noise generated by keys, for example on unlocking the screen. Fixed it by going to settings and unsetting the option. Either the updated enabled the sound (and it's a bug) or the sound was enabled and it was not generated (in this case a bug was fixed) Could you please elaborate on "noise" and "keys"? no more hour from the network so I'm back in 1970. Tried to reboot, switched off and on the cellular data, no change no more Store I think that 3) comes from 2) in fact (the certificates for all sites are not yet valid) There's some intricate interactions in the way clocks are managed on Qualcomm devices such as FP5. Could you please collect logs using the following command and send file journal.log? sudo journalctl --boot \ --identifier=systemd \ --identifier=timekeeper \ --identifier=systemd-timesyncd \ >journal.log @gpatel-fr said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1: @peat_psuwit automatic screen rotation does not work for me with RC (FP5) In fairness, I have spent only 2 days with 24.04 stable and one day with 24.04 daily so I can't be 100% sure that rotation worked with daily. However I'm sure that it was working at least with stable. I think that it was working with daily because it's something one notice very fast normally. And yes the setting 'rotation lock' is disabled and enabling/disabling it did not restore automatic screen rotation. I did not look carefully in the sensor app at the gyroscope output so I'm not sure if something is wrong here - the changes are happening so fast that it's almost impossible to evaluate. I cannot reproduce this on my FP5. That said, it's weird that you start having these problems after switching from Daily channel to RC channel. Images in the RC channel are actually images from Daily channel being copied to RC channel. So I have no idea why that happens... @adorsaz said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1: On a Fairphone 4, I've migrated from daily build (19th October) to this RC, I confirm I am still able to use VoLTE to make a call. Although I cannot send SMS to recipient with phone number formated with my country prefix (+41). I share log here with redacted recipient phone number: sms_send.log Edit: during the day I was able to receive VoLTE call and receive SMS. There are some changes in how we send SMS over VoLTE recent. It's possible that this is the cause. CC: @mariogrip -- the log seems to indicate that QCom-side IMS service wants a "fallback"? @lazarus said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1: @peat_psuwit Tried to install the 24.04-1.x channel release on my Sony Xperia X using the UBports installer. Installing was completed, but after reboot the device hangs at the white "Sony" screen for multiple minutes and won't boot any further. Staying connected to the PC I can see the network connection established via USB, but I can't connect to 10.15.19.82 using ssh. It's known that Sony Xperia X doesn't boot 24.04-1.x images. We're still investigating this issue. This is the reason we don't publish a stable image for Sony Xperia X yet. I think I myself forgot to put it into the latest previous announcement... yeah, sorry about that. We'll fix the announcement. @lduboeuf said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1: @peat_psuwit I think an update of Telegram is needed for the notifications list not cleared fix The Teleports update should not be needed for this to be fixed, at least in the specific case of Teleports.

@smobilesoft Well... I have the same phone. I am not a porter and I apologize to them (or invite them to correct me) for the shortcuts used. I have unlocked it, install the needed ROM to be compatible with UT port. The UT port interacts with an abstraction layer called Halium. There is a version of Halium for each version of Android 9, 10, 11, 12, etc. Halium interacts with the low-level Android drivers that are left in place when UT is installed and Android is replaced. The port therefore expects to have very specific drivers (those of the recommended version of Android). Each ROM contains a number of partitions that are either left in place, replaced, or modified. Altering these partitions (or using a non-compliant ROM that has other partitions) can therefore result in a system that cannot receive UT or anything else at all. You can experiment, and it may be beneficial to you and to others who are in the same situation or not. When the device is unlocked and the ROM joyeuse_global_images_V12.0.3.0.QJZMIXM is in place, installer can resize the needed partitions via [image: 1760128909183-bead290c-af62-4237-82e9-9d1ff28cf229-ut-install-checkbox.png] /home/jll/UBT/4Install/UT install checkbox.png

@pparent Waydroid and libertine aren't app distribution channels and snaps are just terrible (and centralized with a proprietary backend). Maybe if there was proper Flatpak support in UT, but that still wouldn't give us click-packages.

I've succeeded in making a .click package, here is the topic for the app development: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11532/signal-ut-signal-desktop-for-ubuntu-touch

I had to reinstall Android unfortunately Both Sims are working. Will give UT another go sometime in the near future. Thanks everyone.

@pparent Your app is very good and the improvement was made by volla 22 itself: I am now on dev 486 and scrolling on volla has improved considerably.

I struggled with this on UT. Eventually I installed dufs webdav server and I've been using that with morph. I can download files from the PC easily and I can push files to the PC easily as well using a web browser. I can even stream videos from the PC this way!

@Mario.CH said in Potentially turning a negative of Google's tightening restrictions into a positave: Is that how it is in your country? Not even a post office bank? Yes, it's true that some of our banks do not have physical locations at all anymore.

@aarontheissueguy You should definitely see this post, I really think signal-desktop is the way to go: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11532/signal-ut-signal-desktop-for-ubuntu-touch

@gpatel-fr Vndk deprecation happens in Android 15, not 14 - unless Halium 14 means Android 15 ? I think the only thing UT has to do with VNDK is mount the correct partitions to be read by the android container, which handles the rest. Ask in the porting group for more detail, there are already some short discussions around it. to check the vndk version, it's necessary to enable debug mode on the phone, connect a computer through usb and use adb You can install an app called Treble Info from F-Droid.
