Bacon goes focal!

@messayisto It's the one for 16.04 from the OpenStore armhf version. There is a 20.04 version in the pipeline but that doesn't fully work either. I used Morph to get to the OpenStore and download it.
-
@Lakotaubp thanks!
-
Update issued today.
No access to internet through wifi, Morph hangs
Battery life lasts less than a day.
Terminal fails to load, hangs at spinning circle
-
I've tested GPS. Worked fine with OSM Scout Server, Pure Maps, UT Tweak Tool and offline maps.
-
Update 50 does not install for me boots to recovery only. A reboot goes back to 49, so nothing losed.
-
Tried Update 50 again. This time I had deleted the previous updates and it was connected to power. This time it worked..
Need to try this again over the next few days to see if it happens again. -
I am yet to try the update, 20.04 seems to have caned the battery on these phones. I have three on 20.04 and on all three the battery lasts less than 4 hours.
-
@MrT10001 Not left mine on for long yet. Does yours have a sim in? Will try tomorrow night when back from work.
-
@Flohack Just installed 20.04. Love that I didn't have to disable the camera to install this time, and it set date/time correctly instead of 1970!
(Still getting open-cuts certificate error, confirmed the existing issue in github.)
Wifi/internet/Morph all working.
Tapping the power button to turn off the screen opens the Power menu (like a long press) and it is still there when you turn the screen back on.
Will do more testing as time permits.

Is that an issue ?
I mean, i don't remember another behavior on my phones, even if power buttons acts exactly like it should (short press screen off, half long press power menu, loonnng press power off).

I realise now both these points may be less about the installer and more about differences in how I have installed/setup. 1. First/last time I ran ubports-installer on this device, it was from CyanogenOS to UT Xenial. This time was Xenial to Focal, so the camera was no longer blocking the ability for the installer to recognise the device. 2. This was the first time for any install I have entered Wifi details in the Getting Started phase, which is obviously how the device detects current date/time when setting up. On Android I am used to the system clock syncing with the phone network provider.

That part particularly, sounds like no, if that is the experience with other devices/versions. But what is also interesting is that when I let the screen lock due to inactivity, tapping the Power button to wake also opens the Power menu.
I haven't seen the battery drain as @MrT10001 describes, but I also haven't installed a SIM yet. For me, the battery seems to hold up better than on Focal with no SIM and Flight Mode off, than on Xenial with a SIM and Flight Mode on. (Did a whole work day at 75% and it is only falling now I am on wifi and the screen constantly on.)

This is a known issue for the OPO (as well as the PinePhone/Pro) on focal

@Lakotaubp No SIM yet, will try it with a SIM at some point.
-
@MrT10001 Also no battery drain for me. been on for 5hrs and battery at 64% no sim, wifi on. Cannot get update 51 to install though, even after clearing old update and connected to power.

Good to know. Where is the list of known issues?

You can find the link to issue tracker for each devices on its page, from UBports main site device list.
2015-2023 : Meizu MX4 now in legacy drawer by lack of pristine battery 😫
2023-***** : Nexus 5 (16.04 OTA 25) for daily use, slowly dying 🤕
2024-***** : Fairphone 5 waiting UT for freedom 😉

@Lakotaubp We fixed this issue, to get the change you'll need to run installer with bootstrap ticked (and wipe unticked if you want to preserve data) and then OTAs from there on out should work perfectly fine.
-
@Keneda Thanks. Even when you pointed me to it, it took me forever to see the link. It's there for OPO Xenial, but not OPO Focal. And it points to Github, but there's only 1 Open Project and its not Focal.
Having solved that riddle, I would guess to go look on Gitlab, but 117+ items match 'Focal'.
Can I be a pain and ask you to actually point me directly to the known issues for Focal on the OPO?

@Flohack Headphones work entirely as expected, but there is a crackle in the audio. 2 different headsets, and same device did not have the crackle when running Xenial.
