        Well, that was just plain weird. So, it turns out there appears to be an issue with the latest halium install script and Android-sdk-tools on Linux. If you run into the same problem I had, you need to apply these fixes:

          I don't always pose for photos, but when I do, I do so with a Nexus6P running Ubuntu Touch!IMG_00000003.jpg

              @Flohack running 8-cores, the latest system, rootfs, etc.

              Camera working including flash, but when flash is used, the device freezes requiring manual reboot. after reboot, the flash photo is in the gallery, intact. Video does not work, but does not crash the camera either

              Strange enough, flashlight does not work, even though flash does.

              Rotation and all sensors consistently working, smooth as butter.

              SSH and MTP mode work. RNDIS works

              Still not working - audio in calls, bluetooth, hotspot.

              You said anbox was included. I ran the procedure from the docs, still says not in the kernel. I tried to wget the anbox build for angler, it says no kernel for angler. Did I miss something?

                @rocket2nfinity sorry I did not update the kernel image, since despite the standard Apps like calculator and system settings no other Apps would start. But I can upload the kernel and you can try for yourself.

                      Hi,

                      Ubuntu Touch uses the underlying Android drivers, as there is no open-source thingie for Android SoCs (Mostly Qualcomm and Mediatek, they dont publish anything). So, theoretically you can achieve the same performance as with Android.

                      However, currently our stack does not use HW acceleration in all the areas, probably video playback is the one where you notice this most. But, still its okay. πŸ˜‰

                        I grepped 'pulse' in var/log/syslog and got this for the time that I was trying to make a phone call:

                        not sure if this is very helpful for troubleshooting the phone audio issues.

                        just screw it.

                                      @Flohack I'm curious to try it, Anbox, so please do when you get a chance. I had a similar issue with my x86 tablet anbox build, the same fix might work with this one.

                                            @Girlycard777 apt upgrade is not the way to update the system in UT. UT is locked down for security reasons, click packages being the way to install apps. Both apps and the system are updated via system updates in the settings panel
