24.04-2.x how does it work at this point for you ?

If someone has tested maybe you can say if it is better now.

you posted this while I was laboriously using the OSK in intouch to say that no, it's not.

Is exPhone (call blocker) working yet ?
What's about webapps already installed (webber webapps) ? working yet ?

Vlad Nirky

@domubpkm
Both are working but still with the old morph support. The QT6 support is coming.
Ambot (and the corner and notch are not working).
I don't use Webber much anymore because native apps like Greenline or Disports work better (in my opinion)

@Moem How to get Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 ?

domubpkm

@Linus67 only using UT installer at this point

Linus67

Okay, I've now switched from 1.3 rc to the daily channel. (Pixel 3a)
Version 507
cat /etc/os-release
returns:
Version= "24.04.4 LTS (Noble Numbat)"

My first impressions are all positive.

lsitongia

It doesn't work for me. I haven't been able to install it on my Pixel 3a or Oneplus N10. Both fail the automatic update that occurs after the install when using the installer. Both run out of disk space. 1.x installs fine.

err, why fiddling with an Usb cable and a quirky software when having a script launching system-image-cli is a lot faster and easier ?

domubpkm

@gpatel-fr I'm talking about flashing os easily, non-technical user friendly. The aim of UT installer.

I think I understand now why for some phones the root partition is larger than needed. I had noticed this on my Fairphone 5.

if system_a was used 100% when using stable, installation of 24.04-2 would fail.

that's a goal yes. You'll see in this thread that is not always effective on the ground. Convoluted indeed.

lsitongia

@gpatel-fr
That depends on the phone model, right?

Or is there a way to reset my Oneplus N10 back to a configuration that would let me install 2.x? Ideally without having to reinstall Android.

gpatel-fr

@lsitongia said:000

certainly. Try to use df -m on your phone under 24.04-1.x to see what is the available space. Some phones are said to have a very small rootfs and used almost completely.

@lsitongia said:

well, I think ro remember from a Q&A that there are efforts to allow the instaljer to resize partitions. I have no idea how all of this work.

FP 5 24.04-2.x Daily Using as daily driver, calls all working well. Had problem with screen going dark a week or do back fir a few days but that's been it of late.
For a development build with just daily available it been very stable if that makes sense.
Does still have both versions of Morph showing at present which is a little awkward to use.

Vlad Nirky

@domubpkm
I read on the Porting Telegram channel that, for many older phones that do not have enough space on the system partition and do not support dynamic partitioning, 24.04-2.x will no longer be available after today until this issue is resolved (if possible).
To continue upgrading to QT6, the system partition must be large enough.
Continuing to provide 24.04-2.x to these phones would prevent them from booting.
Let's cross fingers for these devices (non complete list):

billie2
pro1x
miatoll (mine)
cheeseburger

enchilada
FP3
sargo
X605

domubpkm

@Vlad-Nirky what i'm asking if the problem will be the same for 26.04-1.x. for the same phones.. Or if it would be easier for them to jump from 24.04-1.x to 26.04-1.x..
In fact, i don't see why the problem wouldn't be the same.. or not..

Moem

@Vlad-Nirky Saddest news I heard all week. This would knock a whole bunch of popular devices off the supported devices list.
Not immediately, but still... a well-working default browser is kinda a big deal.

I tested this and can confirm it... well, I'm currently on 24.04-1.3 so is this a 24.04-2.x problem ? No it's not.

Linus67

@gpatel-fr
I've now tested it on a device running 1.3 as well.
Attachments aren't being forwarded there either.
So it's not a problem specific to 24.04-2.x.
