Oneplus 3/3T

3T_Ed

Until last Friday I was on ~~dev~~ edit: Release Candidate channel and changed it back to Edge. I will switch back to dev again.

As the blog post mentioned the OTA-13 would be beneficial for OP 3/T, in combination with Gst-droid, so I was hoping to get the one thing that keeps me from using the phone as my daily driver: the camera app.

The blog post mentions to use the installer, whereas your advice is to just switch to dev channel. Will OTA-13 include the Gst-droid camera for 3T then? Without having to re-install UT?

Anyone else have problems with display auto-rotate since recent (470+ish) updates?

Received OTA-13 on stable channel and it is great to have that much faster browser experience. The text handles are very usefull. Thank you all who have been working on the new release.

As per the latest blog post on OTA-13
”Magnetic phone sleep covers will now cause some devices to sleep and wake.”

I can confirm this works for OnePlus 3/T using Nilkin flipcover

Regarding he notification bar and its icons

Is there an option to change the order/position in which they are displayed from left to right?
When pulled down the active icon (green) and its menu seems to be random every time the phone (re)boots. Is there any way we can have a pre-selected icon by default?

I think there was some talk regarding this for the Yolla Phone to avoid the display notch. Might be upcoming.
The pull-down is gesture based. You can try to hit the right icon with your finger directly (so it isn't random, but based on where you place your finger), but otherwise just move the finger left or right to swap the menus.

Thank you for that. I will search for the Yolla Phone comment mentioning that. It would be nice to have the feature be implemented for all devices. Pulling down the top bar needs to be done with pinpoint precision to swap menus. I'm getting the hang of it. Thanks again.

Hmm, I seem to have problems installing this on my Oneplus3 coming from a Linage OS 17

Initially I tried to just use the installer, but had to manually select the OnePus3(T) and it installed the bootloader and went through the installation process resulting in a success message, but the Phone itself ended up in a non bootable state. First it went strait back to the Ubports recovery and after another reboot would show the Linage OS boot logo but not proceed.

So I reflashed TWRP wiped all the partitions under "advanced wipe", made sure all is in EXT4 (had to reformat one) and then restarted the installer. This time it recogized the device fine and would again say all installed fine. But now I am stuck in a bootloop to the Ubports recovery.

I will try flashing TWRP again to see if I might have missed something, but I am a bit stuck

Edit: After reflashing TWRP I also used the "reformat" option on the partitions in TWRP. Then used the installer again. Again it found the OnePlus3 correctly and claimed to have installed correctly.
Then it rebooted, was stuck on these swirly multicolor rings for a while, then rebooted again and now I seem to have a working Ubuntu Touch

Adjusting display brightness isn't working on OTA-13 with the OnePlus3?
Edit: working after a restart. Phew, I was starting to worry about my eyesight

Anyone has a suggestion how to fix the silent mode slider button? It was working on first boot of the system, but now it doesn't seem to register any longer.

Do you mean the physical button (top left)?
When sliding that button the speaker icon in the top bar/toggle is striked through/muted on my 3T

edit: I'm on stable channel

Ah a reboot seems to have fixed it. Odd.

Any idea what could be causing my OnePlus3 to be partially in Window mode, despite being set to staged?

I noticed that the BottomEdge is displayed as if there was a mouse connected, and sometimes I shortly see a mouse-pointer on the circle screen appearing.

My OP3 runs an edge version from 2020-07-21. I would like to switch to another channel ("dev"), but only "edge" is offered under Updates|Update settings|Channels.

Lakotaubp

@sven You should be able to move to dev iirc and you are upto date with updates. So recheck updates and channels. If not rerun through the installer don't select the wipe option and do it that way.

sven

@Lakotaubp Thanks for your suggestions. I checked again: no other channels available (probably the installed one was an early one). Now I am trying the ubuntu installer 0.5.2-beta. My OP3 is running, developer mode is on, but the installer is only showing Waiting for device.

If I select the model by hand, installation ends with lost connection. I am using the official OP3, red USB cable.

Lakotaubp

@sven Perhaps try dropping down an installer version or two. I must admit to not trying the new beta one yet.
Edit Or 0.5.3 from here https://forums.ubports.com/topic/5008/testing-request-ubports-installer-0-5-3-beta

red USB cable

That means quite nothing.

USB 2.0 capable cable is required, and usb 2.0 port is needed (not 3.0 one!).

Then if you can access your data under androïd on your PC with usb 2.0 cable on usb 2.0 port, USB data is working well and that should work for installing ubports.

sven

@Lakotaubp I tried 0.5.3 beta without any change. Probably the reason is simple: fastboot devices won't show the OP3. In syslog, the following appears when I plug in the USB cable:

Should I move this to a new topic?

Lakotaubp

@sven Just tried 0.4.18 with OP red cable selected device myself and all worked. Just updating snap now to try latest version of installer.

Lakotaubp

@sven That'll stop things. Have you checked with fastboot devices via a terminal?
