On the edge channel, the camera is always crashing for me and even reboots the phone. Has anyone got the camera working on edge?

[tuxus]

@kuleszdl Yes, camera is working

sudo umount /lib/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules && sudo umount /usr/share/apparmor/hardware/graphics.d/apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu_android && sudo umount /usr/share/apparmor/hardware/video.d/apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu_android

sudo ubports-qa install xenial_-_gst-droid

sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-droid nemo-qtmultimedia-plugins

I was able to fix the content hub bug by just removing these lines:
https://github.com/ubports/content-hub/blob/f0d91e8ad42536486fa291f8ede3964f8bb75c53/src/com/ubuntu/content/detail/transfer.cpp#L187-L191

I don't know how important this check is for the other devices but now on my phone I can send files in FluffyChat and Teleports from the gallery without any problems.

[tuxus]

@Krille Is there a update comming?

[Krille]

@tuxus no. Just wanted to share, that this solves it for me. But removing a check like this, where we have no idea what it does, can be dangerous. Ever played Mikado?

[tuxus]

@Krille It's okay, you are right. Was just a question. I think, some users can test it.

[Krille]

@tuxus You can test it with this build of Content Hub: https://janian.de/index.php/s/k5Gt2FQCfyeK73Y

Steps to test:

1. Download the 4 .deb files and push them to your phone
2. On your phone mount in write mode with:

sudo mount -o remount,rw /

3. Install the deb files on your phone with:

sudo apt install ./*.dev --reinstall

4. Reboot your phone

@Krille I'll try it in the evening. Thanks.

@tuxus Thanks. Where do you find the ubports-qa binary ? I am on Debian buster. OK, it’s on the phone. But, I guess that I will lose the fix with the next update, isn’t it ?

Hi, I have a 32GB Suzu that I would love to get running UB Touch, to upgrade form my Nexus 5. Currently I haven't had any luck getting it running. I have,

-Used Emma the Xperia flashing tool to upgrade to Android 8
-Turned on USB debugging
-Installed TWRP and used it to wipe the cache, dalvik cache, data and system
-Installed UBports with the installer, it says it has successfully installed

Then after the phone reboots I just get a black screen. I have tried both devel and edge channels.

Any tips to get it running would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Yesterday I have noticed a bigger bug of the camera app.

When I opened the camera half of the screen were green and the vibrator started and did not turn off until I shut it off.

Has ubports found a dev who wants to take over the Xperia X? Does anyone know that?

[fredldotme]

@turtlenate do you have an SD card inserted?

@makeixo Sadly, nobody has taken my position as the Xperia X maintainer yet

[livrecinq]

@makeixo Got the same !

[livrecinq]

@turtlenate I think the main thing to do is to remove any sd card before attempting to install.

@fredldotme Please Sir, do not leave us alone !!!
