VP22 Upgrade from 24.04-1.0 to 24.04-1.1 failed
-
While this went smooth on my Volla Phone and Volla Phone X, the upgrade from 24.04-1.0 to 24.04-1.1 failed on my Volla Phone 22.
I'm on stable channel and startet the upgrade process from the updater in the settings.
It rebooted and the normal update applying screen showed (Yumi was tiny compared to the other phones).
It rebooted again and got stuck at the Volla logo. After an hour I turned it off because it got pretty warm.
Now, after turning it on, I see the Volla logo and then the screen starts flickering and nothing else happens.What am I supposed to do now?
I had issues with this phone before, Volla support helped me to solve. Since then, the installer doesn't recognise the phone as Volla Phone 22 any more.
Nevertheless, that was in 16.04 times and all upgrades (to 20.04, to 24.04 and those in between) went yet smooth since then...
So in case of using the installer I have to choose it manually...Should I try the installer?
Does that work without having developer options enabled?Thanks in advance!

Does that work without having developer options enabled?
Normally yes, it's unrelated if we're talking about Ubuntu Touch developer mode.
Have you tried to boot with long push on "power" and "volume up" buttons at the same time, until you see a "Recovery Menu", then select the first option "Boot recovery", then connect it in USB to the installer? For me it is detected by the installer only this way.
Thank's for reporting this bug, I'm honestly a bit cautious about upgrading my own VollaPhone 22, since there were similar reports in pre-release, and apparently still now. Anyone can report it the upgrade worked for them?

@pparent For me, I am in 24.04-1.1 stable and the update is ok. It was done normally using the Volla 22 (system parameters). However, I was in 24.04-1.1 candidate before and even daily before candidate. So I can't say from 1.0 stable to 1.1 stable.

I had the same issue with my Volla Phone 22 after updating to the latest stable release. Factory reset didn't work either and got stuck in a boot loop.
I used the installer to re-flash the phone and it's working now as should.

Thank you so much, that worked.
The installer recognised the phone as Volla Phone 22 (mimameid) again, immediatly. Flashing went smooth, without problems and Yumi was normal sized again during installation (I don't know if that matters or is of any interest).
My Volla Phone 22 is on 24.04-1.1 stable now, too. -

I used the installer to re-flash the phone and it's working now as should.That's not very reassuring! Not sure if the dev team is aware of that problem.
For this reason I will do the upgrade when I have time to tinker in case of a problem.

@pparent On my Volla Phone X and Lenovo Tab the upgrade went flawless. Only the Volla Phone 22 had issues. I mentioned it on Telegram but didn't have time to report it to the dev's.

It's because Vollaphone 22 is the only one the get an Halium upgrade with this release. Curious if you have noticed or not any performance improvement, thank's to that upgrade, by the way.

@pparent I indeed noticed some slight performance improvement for example when swiping from the right to show the running apps, slide through them and swipe to close the apps.
