Help testing new legacy image

@Lakota
i had for months problems with usb-conection. the simple reason was the diffrence between otg-usb and normal usb cable. in this case i was the failure ;0) -
Have now flashed my m10fhd as well. All went well and at first glance appears to be running quicker in normal tablet mode, have yet to try connecting keyboard etc. Thanks to all involved for keeping this going.

Hey guys,
I'm running my M10FHD with the UBports image. I confirm it's way faster but I really miss the XApps.
Any news about Firefox/LibreOffice ?Edit : I'm using it with a mouse and a keyboard : it works !
-
@dada
libre office needs a lot of temporary ram...in normal desctop-pc's its run by 2 gb ram shiny. if you have a play-and-fun-old-raspberry with max 1gigabyte ram... os needs ram... abd the rest is not enugh to run all libre-task shiny in ram. so a lot of running libre-task goes to the swap and there its needs time to loading again in the ram. in short i would say.. mobile phones with 1 gigabyte ram would run libre office very lame and lousy... you would not realy like to work so... but newer phones with 2 gb ram ( ubport core-devices...that would be fun) -
@dada - I have the Ubports Touch on my M10 FHD and the 'Desktop Apps' scope lists LibreOffice, GIMP, Firefox, etc.
Thanks!

I don't see the Open Store in Ubports Touch. Should I install it myself, or will that affect currently installed apps?

Ubports Touch on my M10 FHD
Hi Ronnie,
is the UBports running on your M10 FHD?
I also have the M10 FHD and tried today flashing it, but it's not working. I tried via commandline by:
sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=https://system-image.ubports.com/ touch --channel=ubports-touch/legacy --bootstrap --recovery-image=./recovery-frieza.img
But no success.
At the end I got this screen for hours: https://img4.picload.org/image/riacglii/grafik.png
See bottom left "Installing Ubuntu update"
If I choose reboot manually after 15 min. it's rebooting to install Ubuntu 15.04 OTA-15If I use the Magic-Device-Tool, it's the same

@dada - I have the Ubports Touch on my M10 FHD and the 'Desktop Apps' scope lists LibreOffice, GIMP, Firefox, etc.That is the stock canonical image. The UBports image is not shipped with X Apps, but with the openstore.
-
@NeoTheThird then some is definitely awry.
I ran the command:
sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=https://system-image.ubports.com/ touch --channel=ubports-touch/legacy --bootstrap --recovery-image=[Downloaded adb recovery image]Using the recovery image from Ubports which did wipe my device, but now I seem to be, sure enough, back at OTA15.
What the... o_O
Thought: should I have wiped the cache etc when installing the recovery image?
-
This is weird. Others were experiencing issues with the FHD as well, let me talk to @mariogrip and try to figure this out... You don't happen to have the terminal output of the flashing process at hand, do you?
-
@NeoTheThird I don't I'm afraid.
I'm trying to flash it again. I've wiped the cache before flashing this time, but I think I might end up the same as @WLBI as I can see the dreaded 'Installing Ubuntu update' in yellow at the bottom of the screen.
I'll keep the terminal logs this time though.

@NeoTheThird Terminal output for this flash:

@mariogrip said in Help testing new legacy image:
Is there someone that want to help us test our new images?
Hi, I did a little bit more testing on the mx4. With v2 I have the issue that my WLAN connection "freezes". That means indicator still shows connected WLAN, but the mx4 is not able to receive anything. I need to switch flight mode on/off. After that it works again for some time. There is no switching between different WLANs / SSID / Hotspots. I just have a single access point.
Can anyone else confirm this issue?
Thanks

Decided to try the magic-device-tool to see if that'd make any difference. Nope!
Pretty much the same output (below) as flashing via terminal.

Do not reboot manually!Cleaning up..
Exiting script. Bye Bye

And, from there, even after waiting for 25 minutes I see the infamous yellow 'Installing Ubuntu update' text.
If I choose 'reboot system now' it boots up, again, back to a fresh install of OTA-15!
Thanks!

Have just updated both bq 5hd and m10 with the latest Ubuntu update r3 and r5. All went well and seems OK. Just for my info in case I missed it somewhere. On the m10 there are no apps showing in the x app scope. I take it this is correct. Can these be installed from elsewhere yet? If so how.
As for people having issues flashing the m10 I used the magic device tool on both of mine. On the m10 it did hang for quit awhile half way through before completing through to the cleaning up bye bye message. Then it took quite along time to reboot itself out of recovery. Don't know if this helps anyone but it did take a lot longer than the 5hd. So long in fact I was begin to think there might be an issue, and yes there is a bug that delays the start up of the tablet buts far thats all I've found. -
@Lakota
thanks for the info. so its better to chill and cocking a tea and not lose hope to fast. I will flash than only on free days .
Thanks a lot, such little messages helps a lot
-
@ronnietucker mine seemed to take ages before it started up again with I think a spinning Ubuntu symbol then took ages to actually start up properly. Can't remember exactly how long but I did wander off for abit came back still nothing then it started up. I know this is vague but it could have been 25 muns or so.

My M10 FHD is now running with UBports.
My problem on the device was the cache.

The connecting it via USB to the computer
