Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3

Hello Ratchanan.
I noticed that with RC2, the phone’s USB-C port was powering my Lilygo LoRa board.
In RC3 (and in 24.04-2.x), the USB-C port no longer powers it (OTG?).
Forget it, it seams that the board has to be connected during reboot after a power off of the phone.
It's working now.

I've asked one of the developers in the relevant area to look into this. Although, given that this is a cosmetic issue, it might not be fixed before 24.04-1.3 is released.

I have updated this morning from 1.2 stable to 1.3 stable and have the same issue. Is there already a bugreport for that? All other things seems to work without any issues

clock which indicates H-2 hours (France) until the time and date icon in the system settings is pressed.

FYI an issue has been created on Gitlab.

As the hypothesis exposed in the issue description needs some confirmation, the next moment you see the problem (before going in the system settings), could you please issue this command in terminal:

sudo systemctl start systemd-timedated

if it fixes the indicator, the theory will be vindicated and it will be a step toward solving the problem.

If not, it's nonetheless interesting to know. So if you can report the result of the test in the issue, it would be a good thing.

I browsed the recent issues a bit and did not find anything about it so I'd say not.

@kristatos Same for me on FP5.
It depends on the cellular connection selected.
With 5G selected signal shows empty, with 4G it's either low or half and with 2G or 3G its full.
All of these previously were full signal I'm pretty close to my nearest cell mast which has 2G/4G/5G

I don't see the same behaviour on my FP5, that is, the FP5 displayed quality is not constant. I have no external way of have an objective estimation of the actual signal strength.

Although while I wrote that I noticed that the symbol is now stuck to empty like you said. Restart the phone just now. The symbol is not varying like before. Maybe it's the fact of switching the wanted signal type (5G/4G/3G...) that is making the signal strength get stuck to empty ? I never did that before. Or it was a fluke and the signal strength is really changing fast at my place.

While I can't know the real signal strength, last time I checked the official info, my location is not well served (my provider's nearest tower is behind a small elevation).

Signal strength isn't the issue, I wouldn't expect them all to be the same.
I know the signal strength is displayed much lower on 1.3 for 5G and 4G compared with 1.2 is the point
