Release channel update
-
@rocket2nfinity at least you can hide the side bar with a little swipe to the left.
-
Battery management has improved a lot! Last night my N5 with WIFI and SIM on lost around 4%. Last week it would have been around 30%.
Great !
-
I would like to have the possibility to put links from my favourite apps directly on the screen. Everything else just hinders a bit.
-
@mihael Thanks!
-
I like the new design with this relaese channel update.
The messages are more readable, and that's good!
However, two small points are noted:- when we close a scope starting from the left, the following is displayed in full screen, I would prefer that the scopes remain reduced.
- when you delete a thread in the messages, the next one only becomes visible by pulling the screen down, you have to leave and come back to find the correct display.

Yes I don't like this behaviour too. I always closed my apps from the left to the right (like reading from left to right). After two month now (dev/edge) I'm still not familar with it.

I'm not sure what you mean with this one. There are no more scopes in the rc and devel channels now. If you mean apps, it's always been that you swipe in from the right edge (long right-to-left swipe), and then swipe an app/window up to close it. That is unchanged.

This sounds like possibly an issue or regression in the messages app. Please open a ticket for it at https://github.com/ubports/messaging-app so that the maintainer can find the problem and fix it.

@dobey yes, he is talking about apps. If you close the app on the left, the overfiew will be closed and you have to swipe again from the right to close another app or to get to the app you wanted.
-
There is a bug report regarding the behaviour of the app spread. I would assume it will be fixed eventually.
Edit:
found the issue:

@Giiba Thanks for the link. Somebody told me it is a feature not a bug. So I didn't search for this.
-
I have some little problems - but at the end this update runs very smooth - as mario mentioned I thought I would have more problems. I made everything a lot of bigger - which is at the end nicer to use as before.
- my Dekko2 is not really synchronizing - have mails double
- I cannot directly click on new arrived messages - I have to use the top bar a bit from the 'right'
- to open a new tab in morph browser is only possible very right at the buttom - not in the middle any more
- when I delete sms-messages the folder is sometimes wired - have to close and start again
- and I am missing a little bit this RSS scope - using GoogleNews now ;/
The thing what I wish the most are links on the desktop to my favourite apps. Or somebody has an idea for any nice gadgets...
The thing what is the best is the battery management - my Nexus 5 is now so good as my BQ E5 - holds 3-times longer than before. That is really great!! What have you done?

@Mic_
There is Launcher Modular in the Open Store. Not tried it myself.It comes with a warning if after installing you decide to uninstall: restore the default launcher in System Settings first before uninstall app.

There is no such option in System Settings, so I presume this means in the Launcher Modular settings page. Also, it is not possible to perform this hack any longer to replace the dash, on rc/devel channels, as the dash is gone.
-
No launchers anymore. I already forgot that we had launchers
Maybe we will get something comparable...
I have problems reconnecting to WLAN. So if the routers-WLAN is turned off and than on again - the phone is not automatically reconnecting.
You have to turn WLAN in the phone off and on again - and than its working.
-
... my bluetooth can not be turned on...
... having booting-problems ... boots twice, sometimes 3-times, endless, (which happens also before the update)
