@unisuperbox said in OTA-16 Call for Testing:
If you've got some Python knowledge, I'd love to show you where to look to implement this in system-image's client.
It never hurts to point it out. If you look through my github you will see I dabble in everything. And scripting is always easier to figure out than walking in to some huge C++ project with bit of every other language mixed in.
I just read the minutes of the latest news/blog and see this was brought up. No solution but still at least it is being talked about.
-
Won't this command work for switching to old versions?
system-image-cli -b <old build #>
-
@kugiigi It should, but I suppose does not. Otherwise it would be the given answer for how to accomplish the task.
-
@antidroid I was simply asking what specifically is broken, so that we can examine and fix problems, if it is our fault. I was not asking or talking about keeping to older versions if you so wish. I just want to know what is actually broken by upgrading to Qt 5.12 so we can either fix things now, or plan some way to have them fixed.
I also was pointing out there are two separate things coming in OTA-16, and that the removal of Oxide is not necessarily related to upgrading to Qt 5.12, thought they both happened at the same time. Oxide is still in the repository though, so currently if anyone does need to use an app based on it (on an armhf device, since there is no Oxide build for arm64), one can do the necessary steps to make their rootfs writable and install it, even though this is not supported, and may be broken by future updates.
-
@dobey As I said after retesting the only important app I have installed that still hasn't been updated and doesn't load is uWriter (and some games like Snowball World).
The uWriter Github repo has had recent work to switch it over to Morph but the open store has not had an update since 2019.
Sorry it was my mistake thinking it was a QT issue since that has been subject of this release and not the fact that oxide had finally been dropped (talked about it coming in the last few announcements). I was mostly using it as an example of big changes that would lead to someone needing/wanting a way of rolling back to an older version.
-
@dobey as said @AntiDroid , if you have an idea so as to make uWriter running sooner or later, it would be fine and cool !

Been using this on my Xioami Mi A2 since it's release and it's been working pretty well, the only issue I've had is sometimes texts won't come through and need a reboot, but that might be device specific and I just got another update through so I'll see if it fixes that
-
@ImmyChan, android 9 devices indeed have trouble with calls and texts after a few hours to a few days after reboot. We hope we can have it solved by OTA-17.
-
I've just released new RC images for all devices. This image fixes the issue with sending MMS messages, https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1677
-
@unisuperbox I can confirm the stuck-at-max-zoom bug still being present on OPO with RC/W09.
-
@unisuperbox Sorry to say that : mms issue isn't fixed yet for me in RC 10 on Volla.
-
@padu If my memory serves me the issues with the OPO camera will not be fixed until it gets rebased off of Halium 7.1 which is in the works.
-
@padu, true, there is an issue with zoom in the camera-app. We should be able to ship an update to the app to fix it, and indeed the Pull Request is already filed.
-
@unisuperbox Oh, I see that bug in the Gallery app.
-
Yes, fixes are filed for both the camera and gallery apps.

@unisuperbox Cool, thanks! Will re-test then.
-
@domubpkm, does it work if you use stable?
-
@unisuperbox I just switched and NO, mms don't work on the stable channel too !! Internet ok
-
Gallery app fixed! Many, many thanks!
