This weekend I updated my Vollaphone22 from 24.04-1.0 to 24.04-1.1 and screen starts blinking on boot before the logo Ubuntu appears.
With installer reinstalled 24.04-1.1 without wiping data and everything I use every day starts working normally until I found a serious bug on calls.
Yesterday a friend calls me, I answered the call but no sound from other side. My friend repeated calling me and all answering was no sound.
With other phone at hand I search the source of the error and found the Vollaphone22 was the culprit.
How to reproduce is like this, make a call to other phone, wait that the other side answer the call, talk to test that audio is ok, wait that the other phone hang the call, now if you repeat process there is no sound if answered the call. Only rebooting Vollaphone works again, untill other phone terminates the call first and error returns.
This error does not happens on version 20.04 stable.

Thank you for the report. We're looking into this issue and will delay Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1 until we have this issue figure out.

I yesterday installed on my volla phone 22 Ubport 24.04-1.1 RC1 via RC channel. I had problems with incoming and outgoing voice calls without any voice being heard in both directions. Thus I reinstalled 24.04-1.x stable via stable channel. However instead of running the again the 24.04.1 software from stable, the phone is now in a reset loop. It shows the volla screen, then a black screen via backlight on, then a black screen with backling off and then again the volla screen. And so on.

When going into boot loader, I was able to start the recovery mode, however it did not change, it is still in boot loop. Ubports installer is not finding the phone too. What can I do? I plan tomorrow to go to the phone service shop in berlin, which provides volla service and try to reflash the phone.

We're sorry that this happen. Please try the following:

Boot to bootloader by pressing Volume Up + Power (or Volume Up + plugging cable), then select "Enter fastboot menu". Do not enter recovery.
Starts UBports Installer, then manually select "Volla Phone 22" (the Installer currently cannot auto-detect device model in bootloader mode).
Select "24.04-1.x Stable" channel and ensure "Bootstrap" option is checked. Leave "Wipe Userdata" unchecked.
Follow further instructions from the Installer.

@messayisto Well , stable is as it's say , for the sake of , learning/testing , i am reinstalling daily , from the phone updating app, not the installer ( ''the'' not recommended way ? maybe that changed?) and see if its working , or how many updates it will survive !!.
So , updated booted to 24.04-1 x daily on oneplus n10 5g ,says revision 353 ,
look like it all works for now , as stable did !
I will post it if it goes wrong .
i guess 24.04-1 x daily is 24.04-1-1 daily ?

Hello forum,

Sorry ...not about 24.04-1.1

A follow up of my second daily test , thumb down ,receiving messages last an update , well ,it worked after first reboot upon new daily revision , but stop after second reboot !!? encounter boot freezing in bootloader unlock warning stage ,same happend one month ago before daily stopped receiving messages.
Strange , plugged the phone to pc , to reinstall stable , forgot usb setting was in usb Tethering(here french=Partage de connection usb) , suddenly it picked up all those ''not received'' messages !!?!!
Tried to reproduce it , could not .
Back to stable , receiving messages.
Note ; daily here = 24.04-1-x , stable=24.04-1.0

I'm unable to reproduce this issue. There's actually a number of reasons a storage could be mounted read-only; could you please try switching back to 24.04-1.x Stable channel and see if the issue goes away?

Hello,
I installed 24.04-1.0 again and the micro SD card is mounted read only there too.

I believe it still worked on 20.04.

Many thanks & best regards

Hello, from https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/suzu/

Essential Features State: Abandoned

So your only chance is with Ubuntu 20.04 it seems, last UT version will not work just like this.

Update 18 November 2025

Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1 RC 2 is now available for testing. This release fixes:
- Issues with voice calls on Volla Phone 22.
- Crash in Messaging app when attempting to play an attached video or audio.
- Sending SMS on some VoLTE-enabled devices.

The new release date for Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1 is 25 November 2025.

Due to a migration in Volla Phone 22's hardware abstraction layer (HAL), after receiving Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1 RC 1 or later (including daily channel), you will be unable to switch back to Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.0 using UI. Please follow this instruction to use UBports Installer to re-install Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.0.
It is known that Sony Xperia X doesn't boot Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.x images. This has been known since before 24.04-1.0 release, but due to administrative mistake, the list of device on our release announcement was not updated. The release announcement blog has since been updated. Due to its age, we're unable to guarantee if we'll be able to restore support for Sony Xperia X within 24.04-1.x releases or not. We're sorry for your inconvenience.
