        @mtfd Have no idea on that I'm afraid but you could try asking here https://t.me/ubports_pixel3a I will also move this to the Focal section as at the moment it likes like it might be related.

          Humm, i think that downgrading is not a good idea. Pretty sure if you do that on whatever OS it will have many side effects if not from a clean install.

          We hear a lot of issues with Cellular on P3a, that makes me afraid of switching to 20.04 as a daily driver.

            @lduboeuf Yeah, That's fair. I was out when It happened, so it was a last ditch effort to get a working phone again. I think I'll just have to wait for a more stable release. 😕 Kinda sad, I was really liking how much of an improvement 20.04 was.

              @fredldotme do you confirm Cellular being not stable on P3a ?

                @lduboeuf Just reinstalled focal using installer. Got access to phone again and files. Cellular wasn't working because it was set to 2G only. I never set it to that. When I first used focal, Cellular internet wasn't working. turned out "Internet" wasn't enabled in apn settings. It might just be something going wrong with the config files? I'll keep using focal and see if anything changes/breaks

                  @mtfd Is your mobile data working again under focal? Mine (with the Volla) worked for me constantly under xenial, but under focal it's more a gamble. It's set to "2g/3G/4G" but in the indicator it only shows "2G", not "E" for "Edge" like on my E4.5. But with that "2G" there is no internet, not even slow internet. When I play around with reboot/Flight-Mode/insert SIM in and out there maybe comes the "4G"-symbol and then internet is working until the next reboot.

                    @kristatos Have you checked your apn settings are correct? Just worked out that unlike 16.04 where data and mms settings needed to be seperate with 20.04 they can be combined. Might be worth a check.

                      @lakotaubp Ah, ok. I've used the same APN-settings that were used under xenial. I will test if there's any change.

                        @kristatos Yeah, everything is working as expected. It's almost like everything cellular is stable, the incorrect configuration just keeps getting applied randomly.

                          @mtfd You would be better creating your own thread then as it seems different and on another device.

                            I've installed todays devel-update (R368) and tested again and everything is working as expected. Interestingly it worked even without setting an APN and with none selected mode (e.g. 2G/3G/4G).
