Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3
-
@peat_psuwit
Hello Ratchanan.
I noticed that with RC2, the phoneβs USB-C port was powering my Lilygo LoRa board.
In RC3 (and in 24.04-2.x), the USB-C port no longer powers it (OTG?).
Forget it, it seams that the board has to be connected during reboot after a power off of the phone.
It's working now. -
Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3 is released. Thank you everyone for testing.
-
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 have updated this morning from 1.2 stable to 1.3 stable and have the same issue. Is there already a bugreport for that? All other things seems to work without any issues

-
clock which indicates H-2 hours (France) until the time and date icon in the system settings is pressed.
FYI an issue has been created on Gitlab.
As the hypothesis exposed in the issue description needs some confirmation, the next moment you see the problem (before going in the system settings), could you please issue this command in terminal:
sudo systemctl start systemd-timedatedif it fixes the indicator, the theory will be vindicated and it will be a step toward solving the problem.
If not, it's nonetheless interesting to know. So if you can report the result of the test in the issue, it would be a good thing.

I browsed the recent issues a bit and did not find anything about it so I'd say not.

@kristatos Same for me on FP5.
It depends on the cellular connection selected.
With 5G selected signal shows empty, with 4G it's either low or half and with 2G or 3G its full.
All of these previously were full signal I'm pretty close to my nearest cell mast which has 2G/4G/5G -

I don't see the same behaviour on my FP5, that is, the FP5 displayed quality is not constant. I have no external way of have an objective estimation of the actual signal strength.
Although while I wrote that I noticed that the symbol is now stuck to empty like you said. Restart the phone just now. The symbol is not varying like before. Maybe it's the fact of switching the wanted signal type (5G/4G/3G...) that is making the signal strength get stuck to empty ? I never did that before. Or it was a fluke and the signal strength is really changing fast at my place.
While I can't know the real signal strength, last time I checked the official info, my location is not well served (my provider's nearest tower is behind a small elevation).

Signal strength isn't the issue, I wouldn't expect them all to be the same.
I know the signal strength is displayed much lower on 1.3 for 5G and 4G compared with 1.2 is the point -
@gpatel-fr I switch from RC to stable. H-2 again. I did the command line and i confirm it solved the problem : good clock.
-
interesting. Now this behaviour is a bit surprising since the service is supposed to be activated on-demand, so it's pretty normal it's stopped.
I did not check where and how in the code it's tested that the service is stopped but it's astonishing that such a check is even done.
Nonetheless, if starting the service actually fixes the clock it's an indication that this hypothesis deserves further research..
-
@gpatel-fr I seemed to see that at the end of booting the smartphone (before I entered the pin code) when switching to stable, the screen showed the correct time (H) and very quickly went to H-2.
-
@gpatel-fr I've searched a bit and there is aleady a bugreport for that (it was already filled some days ago for the daily channel).
I've linked the thread to this bugreport. -
Possible issue found in 1.3, maybe this could be checked it's not only myself?
Bluetooth can't be disabled or enabled from the battery menu. The toggle moves but it doesn't work and stays in the same state.
I use this regularly as a quick way to achieve some power savings from one place, part of discussions on usage here
Disabling from there own respective pull down works correctly. -

Disabling from there own respective pull down works correctly.It also happens on my FP4 with 1.3

Seems to be a bug, yes. Happens to me on a Volla Quintus with stable 1.3.

Yes I see that on my FP5.
I searched a bit and I think that the problem is not in the settings, it's in the Bluetooth stack itself.
Rationale: launching bluetoothctl, I can see that when activating the switch, there is this message:[bluetooth]# hci0 new_settings: connectable bondable ssp br/edr le secure-connthe interface is made 'connectable' and 'bondable'.
When activating the bluetooth in the bluetooth page, these messages are displayed:[bluetooth]# hci0 new_settings: powered connectable bondable ssp br/edr le secure-connthat is, in one case the interface is powered while it's not in the second case. The switch is changed but after a few seconds when the system realizes the discrepancy between the real state of the bluetooth interface and the switch, it switches back the indicator statute.
When going from the battery page to the bluetooth page, the state is checked immediately and the switch is going back to enabled almost instantly.While it's the same action in both case ('bluetooth-enabled') it has 2 different effects!,
I'd need to check what are the messages passing at the Dbus level in both cases.For now it's a bit late for me, logging off.

Hi there,
I'm new here. I view myself as a user, not a developer, but I want to try and do my fair share to contribute. I got myself a Fairphone 4 back in December and flashed it with Ubuntu Touch and played around a bit, tried some other Custom ROMs, placed it in a drawer, forgot about it... long story short, I got the Fairphone 4 out of the drawer again last week and flashed it with the latest stable release again, that being this here 24.04-1.3
Now I observed a few bugs I wanted to share, some of them already mentioned here, some not.
- I can confirm the empty signal strength triangle. From a user's perspective, I'd not call this cosmetic, as it is highly confusing.
- I can confirm the empty release channel. It is a strange kind of fluke. I took a screenshot 5 minutes ago, however, now I cannot reproduce it and all release channels are displayed properly?
- I can confirm the Bluetooth slider in the battery menu not having an effect.
That's about what I recall from the discussion here. Now to my very own bugs.
- Battery drops from fully loaded to about 70% in about an hour. After that, power consumption looks normal.
- Phone "dead" in the morning. It's switched on and fully loaded in the evening, and the next morning the display remains black and I have to long-press the power-button to bring it back to life again.
Thinking about it, these two might coincide, and have only been observed these past two days. However, I recall having none of the above back in December.
So long
