@rocket2nfinity said: North American Issues Telegram channel What is the link to that channel? Thanks. I got one of these phones yesterday. After years of periodically testing on my Pixel 3a, Pinephone and a number of purchased-and-returned phones, this one is looking best. I'm running the daily, 24.04-1.x from yesterday. VoLTE calls are working and the sound is good. I notice that there's no ringing in the speaker on my phone when I'm calling another phone. MMS (group SMS) appeared to work. It might go only to the first person in the group. Haven't received confirmation. MMS of a photo works as long as WiFi is off. This is great progress!

@nbdynl There is a way to force the update. https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-news-1/ubuntu-touch-24-04-1-2-and-20-04-ota-12-release-3987

@nbdynl before i continue, append this to camera / location and if possible networking as well. we want a one time approval option, as well as foreground only. only system apps (like Phone app) should be eligable for background access for services microphone/camera by default, devision as follows: only phone (the app) has background access to microphone by default camera should not be accessible on background by default. (any app) location should not be accessible on background by default (any app) networking should not be accessible on background by default ,push notifications goes through a push server so not affected if im wrong this can be ammended (any non system app)

I admire the partnership between UBports and Volla. It's very good to have two new modern high-performance smartphones supporting 5g. This has nothing to do with UT but I am less confident in the future with what we will be able to do with UT as a daily use smartphone and especially with androîd alternatives like Volla OS or others due to upcoming restrictions from Google and the incidious need to use official apps with real Google Play services, Micro G being rarely sufficient. This will not dissuade me from continuing to support Volla.

@messayisto I just checked on my signal bridge room. That has encryption enabled. So in theory it should work this way. But of course no idea if it would work when setting it up new again. Sometimes old tjings work and new ones break.

@WillemHexspoor said: I'm referring to 24.04-1.x oh, right. I must learn to read. And not reply early on a Sunday morning

@formel Can confirm it works as well. I have installed it successfully on TB-X306F and TB-X306X multiple times to breath a better life into these older tablets. To help you, you must have the following before attempting the UT install: a) A TB-X306F or X that is the 4Gb/64Gb version - that gives you the best experience. b) A return to Android strategy - You need a windows PC and the Lenovo Software Fix tool - by far the easiest way to restore a Lenovo device is with this tool. c) Decent USB-C cable d) The tablet has to have Android 11 running on it for technical reasons e) The latest version of ADB and Fastboot installed on the PC - Windows had an issue with FastbootD (not fastboot), but it has sorted itself out now and works. f) Patience and leaving things alone. Moving the tablet when things are going on can cause a loose USB cable to move and stop things working. g) This tablet on the installer does everything for you with minimal interaction, as above, leave it alone and things take time, the reboot from fastboot to fastbootD can take a couple of minutes and the reboot from fastbootd to recovery can take 2~3 minutes. Be patient and persevere. I hope this helps, but do make sure you have the TB-X306F 4Gb/64Gb version. There is a Telegram channel for this device here as well as help with installation here where you will get help and quickly.

Just wanted to share that I had some battery issues (draining too fast, often draining the entire battery within 1 day) with a OnePlus Nord N10 5g. The phone I purchased was an old refurbished one and I'm not sure if the battery was refreshed or if it was the original battery. Nonetheless, my battery issues have seemed to resolved and thought I'd share. It may help others or not. So, take it or leave it. By default, the screen brightness was quite high (to the far right on the slider) and I can't recall if "Adjust automatically" was enabled or not. I manually selected the screen brightness to the lowest level I could tolerate without feeling like I couldn't see the screen. Surprisingly for me, I can move the slider almost all the way to the left. I also unchecked the "Adjust automatically". So, now the screen brightness is using the minimal battery. (I believe this was the biggest gain for me). Furthermore, I am fairly conscious to disable WiFi unless I am actively using it for internet access. That is all I did and now the battery lasts a couple days without charging (vs completely drain in 1 day) and does not drain much at all. One last thing I am mindful of is to only use the charging cable that came with the device. I think the fast chargers that are more modern may easily cycle/overcharge older batteries and reduce the battery's long term life. With all batteries, there is a limited number of charging cycles and you'll notice that each 100% full charge may not last as long as when it was brand new. Overcharging (while at 100%) and/or letting the battery drain completely to 0% may reduce the life of the battery a bit. So, being mindful to unplug when at 100% and to start charging before it gets too low may help in maximizing its life. Hope this helps. Good luck maximizing your device's battery life!

@Upruzzinga said in Lenovo model that is two years older than the M10.: be flashed with this UBTouch image and then used as a Linux smart device similar to the Ubuntu Touch M10? Very, very unlikely and there is a risk you'll brick it. Phones and tablets differ a lot more than PCs do. Each device needs its own installation file and if there isn't one, it's generally not a good idea to flash one that is meant for a different device.

@peat_psuwit this topic (4370) is the one that tells me to go to a shelter to not get killed so yes we should subscribe to it, L.

Ok, second time is the charm I switched USB cable (it was probably bad), ordered wiping user data and used 24.04-stable for flashing... Flashing worked the second time and now I'm on UT on my FP5

@mihael I had another try after uninstalling and reinstalling uAdBlockNG and creating symlinks like this: root@ubuntu-phablet:/etc# ls -l hosts* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Feb 26 16:49 hosts -> /home/phablet/Downloads/hosts lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Feb 26 16:07 hosts.blocklist -> /home/phablet/Downloads/hosts.blocklist [...] and it worked out fine! I must have made a mistake before when creating the symlinks. Thanks for your help!

Status update: 'ratatoskr' source code has just been reviewed by @bhdouglass (OpenStore team), and two issues have been identified that should be resolved before allowing publication of the .click packages: https://github.com/petroniusniger/ratatoskr/issues/12 (new one) https://github.com/petroniusniger/ratatoskr/issues/6 (known issue) I'll work on resolving those 2 issues and release a v0.1.1 of the code before re-submitting it for publication.

I answer myself: Yes, one has to ask the Weblate administrators.

@paulcarroty witch UTC are you ? It is possible it comes elswehere...

@FlavioMala I don't think that the way the update is installed does any difference. As UT is a read-only filesystem, all system upgrades involve a replacement of the whole rootfs including the kernel. If the kernel has been upgraded at some point in the daily channel for 24.04-1.x, the change will be transferred (of course) in the 24.04.1.2RC and later stable. The FP5 linux kernel is not the same for 24.04-1.1 and 24.04-1.2 stable versions. The installer then can no longer install back 24.04.1.1 on a phone, that was the point of my post: you can't revert to the previous version whatever method you use, even with the installer. That you can't do it from the phone is a misfeature, even more so from the installer. I did not file an issue with the installer since there are already more than 2000 of them
