20.04 Volla Phone
-
Hotspot can be activated, but the device which wants to use the hotspot doesn't get an IP-address.
Always this ?
-
@domubpkm Hotspot is still not working. I can connect to the hotspot, but no IP-address is assigned to the device.
-
@kristatos Thanks for the info.
It's my own opinion, but as long as the hotspot doesn't work, don't bother releasing OTA-1 focal !

@domubpkm Work has started to open the door for you

Not just me. This is a critical issue and listed as such.
Thanks again Jami !

A big THANK YOU to Jami who bring back the automatic screen dimming!

Today I've updated my Volla to 20.04 stable OTA-1 via installer with the "wipe"-Option. Now, with a clean install some more issues (like inconsistencies in languages) are gone. The Volla runs quiet well and I want to say a big "Thank You" to all the people who worked on the task to bring 20.04 to our phones!
-
@kristatos I'll wait hotspot working, probably (i hope), OTA-2. Is secure wifi working currently on Volla ?
-
@domubpkm The bug-report for the hotspot-issue is at the moment within the OTA-2 development. I hope for you, that it'll be fixed with OTA-2, so that you can also switch to 20.04.
What do you mean with "secure wifi"? If you mean connecting to a WPA2-protected WLAN, then yes, this is working. -

It is. Ok thanks.
yes, the hotspot is essential for me.Do you have working MMS ?
-
@domubpkm I've never used MMS and on my main SIM I don't have any datapass which is necessary for sending MMS.
-
@kristatos Have you tried viewing videos in the Morph browser/.
-
@DaveAlbiston No, it's not working. But there is already a bug report for this.
-
@kristatos That's good they are on the case. It may be a Volla specific problem.
-
In my Volla Phone under Focal, notifications (for instance by Telegram) are not producing a sound, only a vibration. I checked all possible configurations and they seem fine.
-
This week, I fresh installed 20.04 Focal Fossa (devel) on my Volla. It seems practically everything is working.
I checked the device page on ubports.com beforehand to know what to expect.
I did notice that the phone (compared to 16.04) seems to have a little more trouble finding mobile data connection. Eventually it does.
Is this something you recognize? If so, does one of you know if this is Volla specific or if this has been reported yet?
[Edit: Seems to be fine now.] -

I am trying to install version 20.04 on my Volla X right now with the installer (0.9.10-beta). I checked the "wipe" option to have a clean installation and the installer keeps showing "flashing firmware partitions using fastboot" for several hours.
Is it normal?
Thank you. -

I haven't installed 20.04 on my Volla yet. However, this is never normal when an installation hangs for several hours. An installation lasts 30 minutes max (it all depends on the internet connection)
-
@naizena When flashing my Volla with the installer it sometimes was so that the installer didn't restart my phone to fastboot-mode. It also said "flashing firmware partitions using fastboot" but I think it was still waiting for the phone to enter fastboot-mode.
When I restart my phone and select fastboot manually then the installer instantly started flashing. The whole process of flashing my device (with downloading files) takes around 5 minutes.
You can enter fastboot-mode by press and hold the power-button and volume-lower-button. Then there comes a little menu-selection where you can choose fastbootBQ Aquaris E4.5 (UT 16.04)
