Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.1

adorsaz

On a Fairphone 4, I've migrated from daily build (19th October) to this RC, I confirm I am still able to use VoLTE to make a call.

Although I cannot send SMS to recipient with phone number formated with my country prefix (+41).
I share log here with redacted recipient phone number:

sms_send.log

Edit: during the day I was able to receive VoLTE call and receive SMS.

automatic screen rotation does not work for me with RC (FP5)

oh well it's like a very bad movie.
a few minutes ago I found the phone black on my table, I had left it for a few minutes unattended. I expected to wake up by a single press on power button, but I had to press for at least 10 seconds to get a boot. When starting, the phone asked me for the wifi password (it was saved obviously). I declined and completed the boot, after wise I checked the wifi and it was connected with the saved password. In the logs the computer was back on 11 July, after that there was this message:

juil. 11 20:52:59 ubuntu-phablet systemd[1]: Finished snapd.apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles managed internally by snapd.
oct. 31 14:54:46 ubuntu-phablet systemd-timesyncd[1009]: System clock time unset or jumped backwards, restored from recorded timestamp: Fri 2025-10-31 14:54:46 CET

and then I noticed that automatic rotation was working again. Yuck.

Sms is still working for me in both directions though, so not all is lost

Edit: forgot to mention that battery is yet far above 50%

@peat_psuwit Tried to install the 24.04-1.x channel release on my Sony Xperia X using the UBports installer. Installing was completed, but after reboot the device hangs at the white "Sony" screen for multiple minutes and won't boot any further.

Staying connected to the PC I can see the network connection established via USB, but I can't connect to 10.15.19.82 using ssh.

messayisto

@gpatel-fr Unfortunatly I dont know. Thanks for your help anyway!

messayisto

@lazarus Are you shure the device does support noble?

lazarus

No, I'm not, but it's listed here: https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-news-1/ubuntu-touch-24-04-1-0-release-3973

messayisto

@lazarus Uhm, I see, but when I look here:
https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/suzu/
its not listed. And not maintained, too. I tried myself to upgrade it to noble and failed the same way you did. So the two lists are confusing...

I have a spare FP3+. Pressing the power button during boot (when Ubuntu Touch with the 5 dots is shown) crashes the phone. The screen turns off and doesn't come back. Pressing the power button again for 2-3 secs starts the normal power on cycle.

Swiping out of waydroid freezes the phone. Turning the screen off and on works, but it's otherwise unresponsive.

I think an update of Telegram is needed for the notifications list not cleared fix

lazarus

@messayisto I think that list not updated yet. 20.04 is the most recent release there.

messayisto

Nobody conforming notification issue and missing sms???

@peat_psuwit

Switched from 24.04.1 daily to RC on my newly installed FP5
Noticed 3 details:

the noise generated by keys, for example on unlocking the screen. Fixed it by going to settings and unsetting the option. Either the updated enabled the sound (and it's a bug) or the sound was enabled and it was not generated (in this case a bug was fixed)

Could you please elaborate on "noise" and "keys"?

no more hour from the network so I'm back in 1970. Tried to reboot, switched off and on the cellular data, no change

no more Store

I think that 3) comes from 2) in fact (the certificates for all sites are not yet valid)

There's some intricate interactions in the way clocks are managed on Qualcomm devices such as FP5. Could you please collect logs using the following command and send file journal.log?

sudo journalctl --boot \
    --identifier=systemd \
    --identifier=timekeeper \
    --identifier=systemd-timesyncd \
    >journal.log

automatic screen rotation does not work for me with RC (FP5)

In fairness, I have spent only 2 days with 24.04 stable and one day with 24.04 daily so I can't be 100% sure that rotation worked with daily. However I'm sure that it was working at least with stable.
I think that it was working with daily because it's something one notice very fast normally. And yes the setting 'rotation lock' is disabled and enabling/disabling it did not restore automatic screen rotation.

I did not look carefully in the sensor app at the gyroscope output so I'm not sure if something is wrong here - the changes are happening so fast that it's almost impossible to evaluate.

I cannot reproduce this on my FP5.

That said, it's weird that you start having these problems after switching from Daily channel to RC channel. Images in the RC channel are actually images from Daily channel being copied to RC channel. So I have no idea why that happens...

There are some changes in how we send SMS over VoLTE recent. It's possible that this is the cause.

CC: @mariogrip -- the log seems to indicate that QCom-side IMS service wants a "fallback"?

It's known that Sony Xperia X doesn't boot 24.04-1.x images. We're still investigating this issue. This is the reason we don't publish a stable image for Sony Xperia X yet.

I think I myself forgot to put it into the latest previous announcement... yeah, sorry about that. We'll fix the announcement.

The Teleports update should not be needed for this to be fixed, at least in the specific case of Teleports.

messayisto

@gpatel-fr I switched channel and went back to stable. (In daily sms didnt work either). All sms which I had not received before arrived at the same time.
Are you interested in the logs from now?

the keyboard sound option under 'Langage & Settings'. I solved this (IMO) highly unpleasant sound level by unsetting this option after upgrading. I would 100% have noticed if this sound option was effective (produced this sound) before the upgrade. I am 99% sure I did not enable this option by error (I did not even know it existed).

attached.
Note that I know why there are deny messages for ntp servers. It's the firewall on my installation (not ufw - a site firewall) blocking ntp for devices on wifi (these devices can only ping and https/https)

re: rotation: yes as I said in another post, the problem went away on its own after a crash (?) of my phone.

yes it's very surprising. Maybe there was something strange with the update process ? did you use it on your device, actually (go from daily to rc) ?

I am in 2 minds of EITHER going back to daily and upgrading again (but if I understand correctly, this would not redo exactly what I did since daily would then not be the same daily that I started from) OR just install the RC directly with the installer and see what happens.

I can wipe my data without problem, I have only 2 days of use and phone & sms history don't matter much to me.

depends, if they are markedly different from mine yes (apart of the phone numbers that you should not forget to mask IMO). I had missed previously that the location where I test is marginal, depending on the windows and doors opened and possibly even weather I can get 5G and if not it's bad 3G or even LTE so I don't know if my log messages are typical and even what kind of connection was actually used when I got a Sms successfully.

It could be interesting as a reference to know if you still see messages such as 'The phone number is not a valid number'

messayisto

@gpatel-fr https://dpaste.com/2DPWCA7DB
there is only one entry saying that the phone number is not valid followed by the name of my provider.
Sorry, I am just a normal user, I cannot read logs. I do not know how to mask the telephone numbers as well...

messayisto

And these are the logs from the moment I switched back to stable.

Hope it helps.

gpatel-fr

@messayisto

I have seen this invalid number in my logs too, so I think it's just an invalid input in address management, nothing related to telephony by itself.

I updated from noble.stable and everything seems to be working here on lancelot.

Text messages now have a notification on the launcher!
Sms sending and receiving works on both sims including flash messages.
I can make calls on both lines.
Mobile data works - tested only with sim 1.
Push notifications work - I tested with DeltaTouch.
Camera works (Front and back, video and stills)
I haven't tested extensively so that's all I have for now.
