OP 5 Focal Install
-
@arubislander Updates work fine onthe 3a as long as it is connected to power to install it. On the OP5 they don't install full stop.
-
Redmi Note 7 was a blank canvas, only basic phone, messaging, System and Browser. Update available would not install. I have another to do more testing with, just waiting for Xiaomi to allow me to unlock the bootloader on my own phone.

Got that wrong 16.04 installed now to work out why

-
@lakotaubp Is Wifi working again? Does anybody know?
-
@messayisto Working on my OP5 with todays update.
-
04/12 Todays update does not boot past Fastboot after completing. Will update when have tried again later.
-
Just tried the installer again and OP5 boots correctly.
-
Does anyone else have an issue with daily updates installing? Mine go as far as booting to recovery.
-
@lakotaubp I haven't been able to install updates on Focal for at least since OTA-24 for xenial was released. (I know the two are unrelated, just establishing a time frame).
-
@arubislander Good thanks nit just me then.
-
@arubislander Do you use the installer to update or a terminal command? The installer is fine for OP5 but my 3a fails for some reason at times and needs a back to stock to work.
-
@lakotaubp I use the installer. Have tried it with and without bootstrappping. Both install, but both don't allow updating via recovery.
Have you tried installing 16.04 instead of going back to stock?
-
@arubislander When the pixel plays up nothing works till it is reflashed with stock. Today despite picking 20.04 it installs 16.04 !! twice that has happened. Which is why I was wondering about terminal commands. Still that needs to be in the 3a thread not here.
-
@lakotaubp my bad. I thought we were that thread.
-
@arubislander No I started the mix.
-
GPS works
-
Weather app works
-
Anyone have updates install without using the installer yet? Other than that and the sound on alarms not working this is a basic dd now.

Hi, just exploring my new OP5T for a few days now running focal (devel 106).
Many things work just fine, although a few things I would like to mention and if possible get some feedback if that is only broken on my end or a general issue.
- two sim cards inserted: on bootup I am not asked for the sim pin's, I need to manually unlock them e.g. via network indicator
- two sim cards inserted: only if both are unlocked mobile data on card 1 is connected
- position is always on after a reboot, it does not remember its state
- when turning on MMS data point, I don't get internet=mobile data connected, when turning off mms, mobile data instantly connects
- I received a call, mobile data would not reconnect after finishing that call (flight mode on/off sorted that)
And if I could wish for something, would be great to get wireguard patch in the kernel.
So, enough for now. :smiling_face_with_halo: . Would love to get some feedback.

@danfro I have moved the post to the Focal section to save it getting lost in the 16.04 stuff.
