            Had an issue on my 3a where incoming ringtone did not sound, a reinstall without wipe on the installer fixed this. 20.04 Focal devel.

              Ive noticed that when i launch the clock App, if i chose not to use location, it crashes and cant open it at all after that. Havent tried selecting location to see what happens

              • Confirmed flash doesnt work
              • Fingerprint functionality is nice, when it works (works more than not)
              • App store is bare as of now 😞
              • No Waydroid
              • Deezer Music Player!!

              Excited to see where this goes. UT was working very stable over on 16.04 and couldnt wait to see what happens on 20.04.

              Three things i need for daily driver usage

              • DUO Mobile support (havent tried within Waydroid, also believe there is a terminal "workaround", but havent tried it yet)
              • MMS Support (PLEASE!)
              • Waydroid

                @codenul Just checking that when you say the OpenStore is bare you mean there are not as many apps as the 16.04 version and not that there is nothing in it?

                May as well use this to remind all app developers to move their apps over to 20.04 https://forums.ubports.com/topic/8318/update-ubuntu-touch-apps-to-20-04-focal-fossa?_=1671610951770&lang=en-US things are moving along very quickly now.

                  Correct - OpenStore loads, just not many apps due to being on Focal. Hard decision but staying on Focal for now since its the future, but just waiting on more apps to come through. Im patience though.

                    @codenul Just checking you hadn't got an issue. More apps are coming through but yes it will take time. The link below will get you UT Tweak Tool

                      @codenul for me MMS works but.... sometimes, like SMS. That makes currently the device not reliable for Telephony things.

                      Tried to look at it myself but don't know what is happening. Cell connection seems to be here, but some sms never arrive. ( need to change device to get them)

                        No issues here - I understand it will take time. THANKS for the link for the Tweak Tool!

                        @lduboeuf - Going be testing this weekend since now I'm staying on Focal. Seeing if anything changes. Currently using USA Mint Mobile.

                          @saveurlinux Just to expand a bit on this list.

                          I can confirm that Wireless External Monitors on Focal do indeed work! I tested on a Mira Cast device with 0 problems, in fact I think it runs much better then xenial right now.

                          Similarly I can also confirm 7 day stability, this obviously ranges from device to device based on battery and other factors, but on my decently new pixel 3axl the battery will last more then a week turned on and on idle, the suspend is very effective, and I do not have to reboot the phones software just about ever. Last reboot for me was nearly two weeks ago.

                            Re: 20.04 Pixel 3A

                            Hello everybody, I'm new here and have just installed 20.04 stable in a pixel 3a.
                            I dont know if this is the correct place (please let me know if it isnt), but I would like to share a problem I'm facing.
                            I'm trying to install the Document viewer from UBPorts but I cant get it done.
                            At some point it stops the download and shows the Install button again. I dont know if this may be related with the size (~500 Mb), I have install other apps with no issue.

                            Another issues I had that seem to have been solved after a wile are:

                            • Not able to find a mobile hotspot crated with another phone > solved after reboot.
                            • In the top dropdown menu, in the System tab, all the options except for Lock and Shut Down did nothing > solved after some time
                            • No push notifications on TELEports > solved after reboot.

                            Another thing I found "weird" is the ability to get the left menu out when the phone is locked, but this is more a desing thing than a bug.

                            I will go on with more testing, but so far I really like it 😄

                              This is a feature. If tou don't lile it you can go to 'settings', 'Security and Privacy', 'Locking and unlocking' and unselect the box after 'When locked allow:- Launcher'

                                Better to check if that issues persist on devel.
                                i had the issue with Document viewer, but it get fixed the next try iirc. For others issues you found i don't have this on devel
