Congratulations everyone, and a huge Thank You from me for your continued hard work.

I'm just curious (I'm content to let updates come when they arrive) but...

Why does sudo system-image-cli -v -p 0 --progress dots have to run via adb? Can't it work from the terminal?

I have no update announced in my OTA-7 stable channel.

First paragraph of the OTA-8 announcement:

"OTA-8 is appearing as a staged rollout for all supported Ubuntu Touch devices over the next five days, completing on Sunday, March 10th."

@advocatux Manual install, as always in my case running Ota-8 right now.

OPO OTA 8, i can't get dark theme on morph-browser screen. Is it normal ?

[advocatux]

@domubpkm IIRC you need to change the System theme to 'SuruDark' using UT Tweak tool (?)

[alan_g]

@domubpkm the image you posted shows the dark theme, what do you think is wrong? (Remember, the theme affects the app, not the website you're viewing.)

[domubpkm]

@advocatux @alan_g I am in suru dark so i thought the full screen should be dark as i saw here :

Maybe i misunderstood ?

[A Former User]

@domubpkm That is simply the dark theme from DuckDuckGo, click the burger menu in the top-right and choose the black/grey theme

[domubpkm]

@Loops THANK YOU !!

In my OTA-7 it says now in the update screen that Ubuntu touch Version 34 is available with 470.1 MB but the Download button is grey and no reaction on click.

This seems like you are almost certainly on the RC channel. Though I don't know why you can't download that image.

[guru]

@dobey I'm on stable channel.

But there is no "version 34" in stable channels.

The name of OTA-8 on BQ E5 HD is Ubuntu Touch version 6, 471.7 Mo.

Can't upload image again !!

All is fine now. Version 6, aka OTA-8, came down now to the 1st of my E4.5, the other is still waiting for it.
