[Call for testing] Announcing out-of-schedule Ubuntu Touch 20.04 OTA-7

Kinuk

@peat_psuwit Hello and thank you for this information. In concrete terms, the risk would concern fraudulent applications that would use the microphone? Has the case already been seen? Thank you

peat_psuwit

@Kinuk We've not encountered any application trying to exploit this yet. That said, because Pulseaudio (the audio server) doesn't log a successful attempt at loading/unloading modules, should any application try to exploit this, there would be no evidence that we can see. This is one of the reason we've decided to roll out this update as soon as possible.

@peat_psuwit, Ok, thank you for your quick feedback.

No apparent malfunction.

Hmmm... Not sure if this is related or different bug, but I bought new BT headset last week (Xiaomi Redmi Buds 6) and I can crash Lomiri while paring the headset to the phone with approx 50/50 chance

Notes:

The isue was present before current OTA7 RC update
This is on Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 with update from RC 2024-W47

@Boldos Then it is unrelated.

Hej just a feedback here on my Fairphone4.
No changes or problems to my daily usage since the update. Since its my daily driver i would notice any troubles...
-Battery holds up
-Network connections work and stable
-Bluetooth does as it should
-Restart and shut down as usual (not always
responding as it should)
-Notification/Ringtones work
....

Ye so for now all is well, will upate if something is out of the ordinary.

Hi @domubpkm

Sadly too late.
Music app is one of the core preinstalled apps and you shouldn't try to uninstall them as it is not handled in the same way as other regular apps.
See this thread: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10425/camera-app-cannot-be-installed
And maybe also this one: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10498/music-app-stopped-working
Even if the latest was correlated with an issue on the music app that required a fix if my memory serves me well.

The easiest way would be to reinstall without wiping the data or maybe open an issue if the issue is confirmed (or another thread to confirm your observation).

peat_psuwit

@domubpkm I'm sorry I didn't notice this before start rolling out. However, since this should be able to be remedied later via Open-Store, I've decided to not holding back the system update.

I personally am unable to reproduce the crash, but maybe I don't understand the reproduction steps well. Could you please elaborate more on this at Music app's issue tracker?

As for the Music app being unable to re-install, please help us gathering the log and then follow the workaround at:

https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/click/-/issues/27

(Music app's click package id is music.ubports)

Just wanted to say thank you!

OTA-7 arrived tonight on my Redmi Note 9S and I applied it successfully.

All seems perfectly fine.

So thank you for continuous hard work!
