Although, we have to admit that not all issues are recorded here; we have been pretty lousy regarding to issue tracking. We hope to improve this in the future.
Well, with so much to do and so few time and people, not everything can be perfect
I edited your first post to add link in bottom. -
The problem with notch avoidance being broken after rotations is a known issue and will be fixed in the next Beta/RC
I have switched to daily and it's fixed.

I update my sony Xperia X with ubuntu touch 24.04-2.
But I have a problem with the "bookmarks app". They no longer works.
What I see : a blue loading bar ,then a black screen (or white if i m not in dark mod).
I found it with blablacar, but after some tests, it seems that include all " bookmarks app"I have also a display problem with morph web browser :
nothing is displayed online, but parameters are usable.
Others browsers works normaly (merezhyvo & ufirefox) -

I can also confirm that the RTC issue is still present on the Quintus. Just created the following issue about it: [Bug] Volla Quintus: RTC problem: correct time/date not preserved across power cycles.
That particular problem is fixed by disabling the Timekeeper service, useless on non-Qualcomm devices. Kudos to @gpatel-fr for the suggestion.

What about apps created manually with Webber?

Update 30 June 2026: we've decided to postpone the release of Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 by 1 more week due to a number of important fixes missing their deadline. The new release date is set to be 20 July 2026.
So, instead of a Release Candidate image, today we've published 24.04-2.0 Beta 2 which contains a number of improvements and fixes since the last Beta.
We hope to be able to have a Release Candidate image next week.
Notable changes
- Following devices can now receive Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 Beta 2:
- Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1
- JingPad A1
- OnePlus Nord N10 5G
- OnePlus Nord N100
- Xiaomi Redmi 9 and 9 Prime
- Xiaomi Redmi Note 9
- Additional devices receive notch position configurations, including all Volla devices and a few Xiaomi devices.
- Fixed the problem where the top panel gets confused about whether it has to avoid notches or not when the screen is rotated using the floating rotate button.
- Improved support for legacy (X11-based) applications significantly by backporting changes from Mir 2.
- Widevine installer is now fully functional. If you're dependent on DRM-protected contents, Morph Browser could be used to watch such contents.
- Morph Browser can now get access to location.
- Screenshot editor no longer obscures notifications.
Notable known issues
- While Widevine could be installed, some sites (e.g. Netflix) might impose further restrictions on what browser it supports.
- Video recording and media playback in most applications (except browsers) might be broken due to some cache not clearing up. As a workaround, the following command could be run to remove such cache:
rm -v ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/registry.*Followed by a reboot. A fix is being developed. (lomiri-camera-app#221).
- Morph Browser may show black screen after it's switched to background and back. Scrolling will allow webpage to display again. (qt6-webengine#2)
- Some keyboard layouts are displayed incorrectly by overflowing to the left and right edges of the screen. (lomiri-keyboard#214)
- Morph Browser may show black screen after it's switched to background and back. Scrolling will allow webpage to display again. (qt6-webengine#2)
- Hardware video decoding in the updated Morph Browser is not working. Video playback still work, but will be done in software, increasing power usage (qt6-webengine#1).
- Morph Browser's new tab page is not fully functional. In particular, it doesn't show bookmarked sites correctly (morph-browser#624)
- Notch avoidance does not work yet on landscape mode.
- We're still working on issue with mouse position on built-in screen affecting the trackpad on Volla Tablet's keyboard cover. As such, Volla Tablet will not receive 24.04-2.0 Beta at this time.

Thank you so much! I can confirm that:
-
24.04-2.0 Beta2 works fine on my testing device: OnePlus Nord N10 5G

The keyboard problem on XWayland apps is gone, and furthermore there is no more an additional "X" icon in the left system tray, and the application icon appears instead, which is really great! ( Although the status indicator, i.e the small dot at the right or left of the icon, is not always working well, but this is some detail )
-
The bookmark apps are working well for me, and benefiting from latest webengine, which is absolutely great! I've tested also BlaBlacar. @djac Do you still have the problem?
I think 24.04-2.0 will really be great, and I'm very happy about it! Thank you very much!

I've noticed a bug that is a bit problematic:
I cannot allow a QML5 app to have access to the microphone.
For example if I install the Recorder app, without previous install, I cannot record anything, because I cannot allow it to access to the microphone, no authorization dialog shows up.
I guess the same may apply to position permission.

@pparent AFAIR we had the same issue in the transition from 20.04 to 24.04. I think it had something to do with policykit or so?

I am on yesterday's build of 2.x, FP5. My phone has frozen and needed a restart several times since then. The thing in common between the freezes has been the changing of tabs in Morph. It doesn't happen every time I switch tabs, though. It has happened while several different sites have been loaded, not just one. The screen becomes unresponsive and I can not switch to a different app, open the app drawer or any settings through the top bar.
