That is often what happens if the partitions are not what the installer expects them to be. But I don't think that can be the problem here, so it may be the port.
@liutaoabab - I haven't tried this out in a long while - maybe it got broken in a recent OTA - will test this tomorrow when I am back in my studio (and on my Meizu Pro 5 as well to see if the problem is only on OPO)
@kugiigi Could you explain how that would work? Which app do you have in mind. I looked for keyboard apps and installed some, but this did not allow me to have a keyboard app up when emacs started.
As OP didn't log on since August, I'll mark it as solved. @Gentle-Ent if you come by and still have the issue, feel free to mark unsolved and post a comment.
PS. I turned flash on from battery. I opened camera. The flash was switched off. I made foto -no flash. I closed camera. The flash was off but the button from battery settings was on.
@yeke_yoke Thanks for the flowers. We are all in the same boat, and the boat is not so huge, so yes, now and then it will happen that we engage like this 👀
@magnolia_dudeFirstly glad your all sorted and enjoy Ubuntu Touch. Windows often throws a spanner in the works unfortunately. Things get lost during the process which is why we say to use the 15 sec adb version on windows and to remove other phone drivers. Why it happens I'm not sure, I never had an issue once I had 15 sec adb installed but others have. Some don't even need the 15 sec version. Which is what makes it awkward when adding or not adding info to the install instructions. Still maybe something to keep in mind.
The snap version of the installer is in my opinion the easiest version to use and you can watch progress in the terminal.
@advocatux Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I do believe the issue may be related, and I will likely add my part to the github comment chain.
@Muzlabliz You should get OTA-8 by Sunday anyway so best wait till then. Here's the info link
p.s It also tells you how to get it now just in case you can't wait : )
@einstein212 thanks for the heads up! I just got the update and it fixed loads of bugs for me. Turns out I had the updates set to wifi only. I think I did that a while back to prevent things from downloading when I didn't want them to. Makes me feel silly now for doing it seeing how much smoother I've found OTA 3 to be.
Hello, This is an old post but I hope this still helps you.
Recently theres been a n update which fixes many of these issues, the browser works, wifi, and even the screen working properly, the update came out earlier this week and is available if you flash devel_rc-proposed rather then stable or rc-proposed.
