20.04 Volla Phone

Lakotaubp

@noelflantier Yes just thought of that. My OP5 and Pixel 3a are clean installs of 20.04. Just tried FP4 from update channels and getting same issues. Just about to install TELEports for Focal now.

@emphrath No, RNDIS worked for me on BQ E5 HD and nexus 5 (xenial both).
That said, you misread or misunderstood me: I said to test under 20.04 for the Volla, even if indeed it does not work with the Volla xenial.

Edit : That said, I too forgot the fact that UTTT also had to be updated to focal for test this !!

@domubpkm https://gitlab.com/mateosalta/ut-tweak-tool/-/pipelines is out to try

@lakotaubp needs testing, but i'm afraid some of the more advanced features might need rewrite. but suspending apps and many of the settings options for the launcher or indicators as well as theme selection should work

@noelflantier I guess I will try uninstalling and reinstalling the things that currently aren't working once the hotspot is functioning again as it's the only thing I can't really live without.

I have to agree 100% with your last line though

mateo_salta

@noelflantier they do have the same version number in the store, perhaps that is a bug that it does not differentiate the two on upgrade

With the todays update R368 the only things that are missing for me are "dekko" and "documentviewer". With this two apps I think I could already use the Volla running focal as my daily again. Some helpful stuff like flashlight is missing, but that's no showstopper.

@kristatos There are a few devs working on Dekko it would come to Focal....

kristatos

@rudi-timmer Thanks, I've already seen that work is done on both of them to make them ready for focal. I think focal is getting closer and closer

Trying out the devel-channel, the important stuff works except hotspot :disappointed_face:

grumpyoldbloke

Spoke to soon, the clock app doesn't work either :anguished_face:

@grumpyoldbloke said in 20.04 Volla Phone:

the important stuff works except hotspot

big problem for me too, I absolutely need this so not move!

kristatos

@grumpyoldbloke @domubpkm The clock is working, but you have to give the app access to GPS, even if you don't wan't to use it. Then the app is working and says "searching for location" (which you can ignore and set your location manually.
I hope this will be fixed by a future update.

@kristatos
Hello. Some improvements ?

kristatos

@domubpkm At the moment I'm on RC because of the Wifi-Bug in the devel-channel. But if I compare the latest functional devel with the last RC (from December 2022) there are some improvements but they are more under the hood. It's still not as functional as 16.04

Lakotaubp

@kristatos Devel should be fixed with todays update on 20.04 if for some reason it is not this works

systemctl --user enable --now lomiri-indicator-network

domubpkm

@kristatos Thank you for the info. Feel free to report if you see the hotspot working on the Volla 20.04 at such a time.

kristatos

@lakotaubp I've switched to devel back again and yes, the wifi indicator is back again. But for now the telephone-app is gone. The next update will come...

Lakotaubp

@kristatos This will fix it

systemctl --user enable --now lomiri-indicator-network

kristatos

Since todays R403 the flashlight is working again from the indicator-menu
