@flohack Sorry for the noob question in advanced but i'm used to flashing Lineage os images on arch Linux
the below command i'm not sure it can be performed in arch Linux
mounting the actual UT OS
When performing this step, TWRP recovery must be run:
Release ./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut -s ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz system.imgif i run
sudo ./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut -s ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz system.img
i get the below
qemu-arm-static not found in $PATHmake sure you have all dependencies installed.
dependencies: qemu-utils binfmt-support qemu-user-static e2fsprogs sudo simg2imgmost of which i can't get on arch
i'm guessing for now there is no option to run the script on anything but Ubuntu?
-
@adamjonn Hi, yes unfortunately there are some Ubuntu-specific parts in that toolchain.
We are working hard on getting the device into the UBports Installer, which is kinda blocked by the very small system partition the device has currently.
I hope over the next weeks / months to get this resolved.BR
-
@flohack thanks for getting back to me, i look forward to trying it when it is done in the mean time might use gnome box and install Ubuntu to try the current build.
will it also have anbox capabilities dare say i am fairly invested in android apps which i uses on my arch distro.
keep up the fantastic work! i watch another review of your work posted earlier today very high praise as always.
-
Installer config for the 2 Xl is available: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/6199/beta-pixel-2-xl-installer-config
Please test ( not with the Pixel 2 please, only 2 XL!)
-
Some update, got MTP working today, now next big thing to do is call audio
-
Call audio working now, but needs to be merged into the rootfs, hence its not rolled out now and I will report later when it can be tested.
But it also works with speakerphone! I will update the devices page later, seems Pixel 2 goes towards daily usage ^^
-
@flohack I'm curious if your VoLTE experiment will be included. I was very excited to see you've made progress with snapdragon and android 9.
-
@rocket2nfinity Sorry the VoLTE experiment is currently still under development, there is unfortunately nothing useful right now
-
@flohack Still exciting. Another related question - is there a good guide on audio routing and how the dialer works? Because, when i'm in 4g only areas, my N6P can make calls but no touch tone/audio during the call, nor can you hang up. Thinking the Pixel 2 might be similar.
-
@rocket2nfinity said in [Porting] Call for testers:
g and how the dialer works? Because, when i'm in 4g only areas, my N6P can make calls but no touch t
Hard to say maybe your phone tries to do volte who knows
does the 4G/L signal stay on all the time during the call? -
@flohack Yes. Stays 4G, but something's different with the audio routing when on 4G
-
@flohack So, what's not working with Pixel 2XL? Because it all seems to work to me. Even hotspot! Something I miss on the N6P.
-
@rocket2nfinity Hotspot works wtf... How can it be? Well N6P has a different method of switching the hotspot, and its hardcoded in UT so we need to fix that globally.
Erm check the list here: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/muskie/ - and can you please tell me if I can mark some things green there? I as not able to test battery endujrance really due to my old and damaged device, e.g.
-
@rocket2nfinity Also GPS does not work for me...
-
@flohack GPS, hotspot, microphone all work for me. I'll test NFC, battery, and other things when i get the chance. I don't know how to determine if hardware acceleration is working. But, it runs smooth.
