Is there support for OP6?
-
I would not say support is dead, but fixes will come few and far between. The P3a/XL and OP5T are far better supported.
The OP6/T does have one major advantage - mainline linux support. I am running mine on gnome mobile via PostMarket. There have been some recent bugs because of recent inprovements, but the postmarket build runs better than the UT build for the device. Recently, gps and sensors have been made at least partially functional, and VoLTE is being worked on. There is effort to get the camera going but it's a lower priority. I think it is quite possible it will be the first fully functional mainlined android phone in a while. Your other option would be the Pinephones of course. They are VoLTE functional now, but have other bugs / pain points.
If you are looking for "just works", then the P3a/XL or OP5T will fit nicely. I do not have a Volla, nor Fairphone to compare with, so I will defer to someone who does.

@Hugehead We are always looking for people to take on testing and helping develop the OS and it would be very much appreciated. If so we can point you in the right direction. Taking on a port and keeping it going is a big commitment for anyone and availability/time changes as you have seen and not all ports advance and last.
As the info on the devices page, the people who put the page together rely on the correct information at the start and updates when it changes from the devs of each device. We are working on ways of making it clearer which devices are " Fully UBports" and which are "community ports" what the state of the port is and who to contact with any issues.
If it was say "fully UBports" you would contact us about anything related to the device and OS, at the other end it would really be back to the porter for device specific stuff. Bit of a simple outline but you can see the idea. -
Hi @Hugehead,
OnePlus 6 / 6T has support, there's already things you can make to bring back your calls, but we did not merged yet into the repo. We're investigating the root of the problem. Please visit if you're comfortable with flashing yourself images : https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/android9/oneplus-6/oneplus-enchilada-fajita
Plus, if you want to get in touch you can search us in Telegram: ubports_op6.

@ixsvf
Thank you for the answer. I saw that there something is going on at OP6 "no sound in calls".
Is there a link to some guide to flash images? -
Hi ,@Hugehead you can now try the fixes for OnePlus 6/6T just switch to the devel channel on SystemSettingsApp.
-
The problem I had with calls on 20.04 was the outgoing audio was just garbled noise. This has been fixed by the release on the devel channel.
Thanks for the heads-up. -
@radiofixr
It's fixed on the stable channel too (I just installed it and it's fine) -
There's still one fix that, sadly, did not find it's way into OTA-3. But it will ship with OTA-4.
On OTA-3, if you receive or make an call and you go for an app that uses the microphone will not capture sound. DialerApp remains ok.
A temporary workaround is already available in the Devel Channel.
