Moin und einen schönen Sonntag, also das FP4 ist nach langem hin und her auf 24.04. 1.1 und zeigt jetzt auch wieder unter Kanäle alles an. Das FP3+ ist auf 20.04 OTA-11, hatte auch kurz die neue Version 24 angezeigt aber nach klick auf "Update" nur noch loadingspinner und unter Kanäle wird alles leer angezeigt. Auch einige neustart brachten keine Besserung. Ich habe noch VPN getestet, aber funktioniert auch nicht. Anzeige bleibt bei "Aktualisierungen werden gesucht" und endlos spinner.

@Vlad-Nirky That is an issue with the device from Xenial and Focal.

@Caedem likely not how it works. The 3.5.1 was the last xenial release. Those 9k focal devices, are those who moved from xenial to focal. So there would be a bit less than 4k xenial left with numbers shrinking. And we need to drop them for security reasons at some point. Or can you justify providing a unmaintained insecure system? Also some older devices will simply die due to hardware breaking.

Viability: hmmm, at the moment: No voice calls (no VoLTE) on Pixel 3A (which WAS a primary supported phone for UT), on UT in USA (which is the third largest phone market by country, or 4th largest by region, after Europe). [alternative: VOIP - NOT available in openstore for most recent version UT] That is pretty NON-Viable, if you want a phone you can make calls on. Is that the fault of the UT teams ? I would say NO, it is the fault of the much larger system cancelling 2G, 3G, (USA & Australia , etc, now, and changing worldwide, with plans in place over 10 years ago) and the fact that the drivers for the radio chips and most others are closed source or Android or whatever. Who would be the ones to fix it ? UT dev teams, if at all. Or, what about WiFi calling ? Not functional. Is that the fault of UT devs, or other main stream code (from the larger base) being unavailable ? OR some phone brands / models NOT supporting required radio bands in some countries. NOT Viable. I think PC's are a better analogy than cars, since we are mostly talking software here, not hardware. if using cars analogy, could mention how air bag manufacturers caused a huge recall problem for a variety of car manufacturers. Q: So, where did UT come from ? A: 1) a gigantic base of hardware and software: major players who recently CANCELLED (in some countries, and in process in others) the fundamental ability of UT to make phone calls, through changes to the larger hardware and software system. A: 2) a few dedicated, volunteer developers who are doing their best to modify code for specific devices to overcome above obstacles.

@fredldotme noted, if a bit late

@qusay Thank you that is very helpful!

@gpatel-fr Yeah, I noticed that about the logs too. The phone "thinks" I sent a text, and then it "thinks" I sent another text, but in the middle the phone does "not think" that I tried sending a photo message. Which I did. There's actually three message attempts in that timeframe. The photo message send(MMS) just might as well have never happened at all. It's completely missing, my human activity is not there logged in that moment. So the text messaging app itself probably would have sent the photo over to my carrier but it just never knew I attempted to send the photo from the OS to begin with? I don't know for now but I'm going to have to do the hard reset and wipe it all and start over. For now I need this working. I haven't gotten any text messages in over a week now and and I know how to get it working again. It just is what it is. I need to think about how I will add this to the bug report.

I did not try your method yet, however I debugged the problem in my method. It's something (I guess Lomiri itself) that is sending a signal when the window is paused while switching. It is killing xev. The fix is to use TweakUT to keep the terminal awake, then my method works whatever the launch mode (direct > or with starting a new task &>) So I could repro the problem you have seen. No discrepancy here. I have looked a bit at Firefox and Chrome under vanilla Linux (Kubuntu 24.04) and xev reports something very different than under UT. That is, no strange events, basically the system reports the menu being created and mapped and that's all. I have also 'packaged' a recent version of Firefox freshly downloaded from the editor's site, that is, I did env GDK_DPI_SCALE=2 MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 DISABLE_WAYLAND=1 ./firefox and the menus in the top bar display (if no scaling were done, I'd guess that the menu would display if by a stroke of luck I could hit the minuscule screen area) So my guess is that's not a clever packaging trick, that's something that Firefox is doing differently than Chrome. I searched for a Chrome Linux arm64 build but it seems that Google has insufficient resources to generate arm64 Linux builds (it's not a joke, it's exactly what is said by a Google employee in the Chrome issue tracker). I'd say that as under UT Chrome and Firefox are hitting XWayland that is hitting Mir, the problem could be all the way down to Mir. The version of Mir in current 24.04 UT is woefully outdated. When it will be updated, the way forward will be to switch to Wayland anyway and drop XWayland.

I'm suffering the same. I have a radicale server and the calendars fail to syncronize with ubports 24.04 stable and fairphone 5. No problems with nextcloud accounts

It's beginning now.

Latest build fixes the vertical black lines which can be seen sometimes.

@libremax Wow, nice! Thanks to whoever did the work and thanks for letting me know!

@pparent I have a OnePlus Nord N10 that I could give to you if it's of any use. It's running 24.04-2.x and the battery isn't very good anymore. I would reset it to factory settings and send it to you. What do you think?

hello, @dieter42 I meet the same probleme. So I tried to made the fastboot flash, but i received this answer : Sending 'aop_a' (180 KB) OKAY [ 0.010s] Writing 'aop_a' FAILED (remote: 'Flashing is not allowed for Critical Partitions') fastboot: error: Command failed Perhaps i miss something...

@o.o. For the record, with Signal UT it's now possible to send and receive messages, photos, and audios in Signal UT without Waydroid, and to get standard UT notifications when a new message arrives even when the phone is locked.

Another quick update. I'm really pleased to announce that I got the SharePlugin part of the app working as well. I successfully pushed a file from my Pixel 3a to my (Linux) laptop over BT, but even more importantly for me, I was able to push selected contacts to my car kit The user interface is still too rough for the app to be published as is (at this stage, you have to select the target device based on its MAC address, which is far from convenient), but I'm working on it.

@pparent Thanks for posting that article, I hadn't heard. Low probability of success can be offset by low cost and high value of success. I think the moment we're in presents opportunity like never before. In addition to the French government looking at digital sovereignty, the Danish government is trying to get away from American tech companies. I could imagine many other governments may be considering this. We don't have the interoperability rules here in Canada, but I'm still going to be suggesting to my member of parliament and a couple of ministers that the government should be proactive in examining and acting on the threat posed by the fact that most members of our government, military, and general populace use privacy-intrusive smartphone OSes controlled by a couple USA-based tech companies whose CEOs have already demonstrated a willingness to comply with what increasingly demonstrates itself to be an aggressive and authoritarian government. (I respect the forum's rules about not getting political and hope this didn't cross any lines, but I think what I said is factual and relevant to the point I'm making. I'm not taking a position here on whether annexation is cool, just trying to explain why I think there's an opportunity for UT.) Matrix has benefited from being adopted by various governments and militaries, even if in pilot projects. The challenge is much greater with mobile OS adoption, but if the resources and the need are there, it doesn't seem impossible. My government, for example, is suddenly trying to spend vastly more than ever before on the military and routinely falls short of its spending targets. I could make the argument that a secure, private and functional mobile OS is of strategic military importance And I will! Opportunities like this don't always last very long.

Does get weird login touch lag , needing screen refreshing(power button) , second device on 24.04-1.x got the same behaviour . There that , hmm , new feature from many revision that got that call green (get back to )bar at the top , it is a bit anoying , i dont get it purpose and dont look it could be turn off , or cannot find how , anyone got a hint ?
