Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3

gpatel-fr

This morning wanting to investigate the recorder problem, I had the idea of returning to stable version.
Simple I thought, change the update channel, then update.
Now clicking on 'Channel', I get... nothing ?

now I never tried this, is it supposed to work ? This function must have been used to switch to RC.
Is the switch to RC like the legendary Hotel California, you can enter but you can never leave ? or is it a new bug of 24.04-1.3 ?

@gpatel-fr It should not be empty. It isn't on Volla 22

I used the installer and got back to stable. In channel parameters I get back the usual values.
Still get Failed to build media capture pipeline in the voice recorder app, so it's not a new problem in daily (RC).

@domubpkm

but you are on the stable channel ! I see the problem only after updating to RC.

domubpkm

@gpatel-fr No. I'm on RC 12 (see first screenshot).

@domubpkm

You say you are on RC yet the Channel displayed in your second screenshot is 'stable'. It should be 'Candidate' no ?

And your first screenshot display the state as 'Download', so it can't be instalfed yet.

same signal issue on fp4, the bar is empty in areas with "bad" connection and half bar where it usually is full. i also get full bar in some areas, but the threshold has changed. Devel from 06.04.26 did not have that issue.

I installed it, don't see the problem about update channel not displayed. It may have been a fluke.

I noticed one regression: in the top bar, the cellular network indicator (the triangle on the right of Bluetooth icon) is always empty. It does not report the signal strength. Fortunately calls/SMS work like I reported above.

I've asked one of the developers in the relevant area to look into this. Although, given that this is a cosmetic issue, it might not be fixed before 24.04-1.3 is released.

I can no longer create photo albums on my Pixel 3a.

The version v1.35.5-1 of the Min Browser, is now compatible with UT 24.04-1.3, can you confirm it solves the problem for you?

(I will also publish very soon a new version of Rocket.Chat, so that all my apps are compatible with UT 24.04-1.3

EDIT: I've also published a new version of Rocket.Chat, that is compatible with 24.04-1.3 )

@peat_psuwit Today on Volla Quintus sveral apps did not work, i.e. Mastodon, uDiaspora. After a restart everything went fine again.

I mean, power consumption is slightly lower with Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3.
Pixel 3a /Wi-Fi/Decco 2, BT off, no other apps open, no calls, no SMS, only on the table.
About 10% lower power consumption.
