Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.2

Hi @peat_psuwit,

about Sony Xperia X:

Well, I can confirm that the sound works through the speaker.

Bluetooth connects, but there is no sound in the headphones.

Now I also have VoLTE on the Xeria X, amazing.

Could you please collect logs using the following command over ADB or SSH, then pull the file over USB?

Turns out the answer is no. I found instructions, because I have no idea how this works, and I can't understand the instructions. Now I feel stupid. Let's forget it.

There's always a first time for everything (and a last time, for that matter).
If you connect your phone to your PC through USB (for example, the one you used to install Ubuntu Touch) and open a terminal, you can run the command
adb shell
This will open a remote connection to your phone.
In this connection, you can run the command
sudo journalctl --boot --grep 'blue' >Downloads/journalctl.log
Than you can type exit to return to your local terminal and run
adb pull /home/phablet/Downloads/journalctl.log ~/journalctl.log
This will get the phone's file in your home folder.

@Vlad-Nirky Okay, those were instructions I could follow... thank you.

journalctl.log

Not sure this will help since I'm now back on Stable.

@Moem
Journalctl persists during a long time.

Thank you for the log (also thanks @vlad-nirky for a better instructions ). To help me pin point relevant log lines, could you please give me the approximated date and time you switched to RC and from RC, in your (device's) timezone?

sure but if one passes it the --boot parameter it's unlikely to get before the last system update.

Oof! Again with the hard questions...
I switched back to Stable yesterday evening shortly before I posted about the BT problem. But I don't know when I switched to RC. Maybe one day earlier?

Vlad Nirky

@Moem
In fact, I guess it would be better, as gpatel-fr has suggested, to rerun the commands but without the --boot argument to collect the all journal.

Moem

@Vlad-Nirky Sorry, something is not working anymore (no devices/emulators found) and I don't have the patience at this moment.

... Okay, I managed it. Funny but I dislike this stuff even if it works! Anyway, as expected, this log is big. Too big to upload.

Vlad Nirky

@Moem
Sorry for this.
You could use
journalctl --since "2026-02-09" --grep 'blue' >Downloads/journalctl.log
After that, we will know how to use journalctl.

I confirme : sound now works on sony xperia X (with rc2).
In my case, the bluetooth stuff works too (a samsung sound speaker)

@Moem There's a known issue with bluetooth where it is in a state where your paired devices aren't listed in the bluetooth page and you can't connect.
You could run sudo systemctl restart bluetooth.service and see if that fixes it. Otherwise, rebooting may fix it although it might take a couple of reboots

Vlad Nirky

@kugiigi
Yes, and in the past, starting the Bluetooth connection from the system settings/Bluetooth has always given better results.

browsing https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/packaging/bluez/-/issues does not bring something looking like that.
If it's a known problem, where is it tracked ? or is it this closed issue ?

Thank you, I will experiment when I have more time than I do today.

I notice no vibration on sony xperia X. (at start, with keyboard...). Is it a probleme on my device or with the 24.04-1.2 RC (1 & 2) ?

Hi @DJac,

So far, I haven't found a device that plays the sound, but a Sharp radio with Bluetooth could play music from my Xperia, but with interruptions, and every time it resumed, the song played faster than usual, as if it wanted to make up for the interruption.

@DJac said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.2:

My Xperia has no problems with pressing the keyboard and the "echo" from the vibration.
Or have I misunderstood something?

@Mario.CH
it is okay : the absence of vibration is probably somthing brake in my old phone... (like the camera)

This is odd, but in a good way. I just switched back to 1.x RC to test, and I can report that my Pebbles now work! The oddness is: when it didn't work, RC 1.2 was already out, but apparently I was on RC 1.1 somehow.

I don't care very much, I'm just happy to report that it works
