Call for testing: Google/Huawei Nexus 6P (angler) owners

@rocket2nfinity A fine member of my global den. :orange_heart:

[rocket2nfinity]

@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?

[flohack]

@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.

[flohack]

Sorry also for Bluetooth, I need to replace 1 32bit binary with 64bit....

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.

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.

@user yes is saw it but what i was searching was the arm64, but i found it

[Girlycard777]

@Flohack what rootfs did you use? i used this https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-rootfs-armhf/search/?q=xenial-rootfs-arm64 and give me bootloop

[rocket2nfinity]

@Girlycard777 Use this https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-hybris-edge-rootfs-arm64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/out/ubuntu-touch-hybris-xenial-edge-arm64-rootfs.tar.gz

[rocket2nfinity]

@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.

booting succesfully with arm64 and 8 core , i want to test it ,i like it , Does anyone knows how to configure apt ... when i give apt update and apt upgrade give me some sort of configuration error which wont allow to lock dpkg files etc , with sudo and root acces

[Girlycard777]

html antutu benchmark gave 4700 score
surprisingly testing the wifi net speed gave me more bandwidth than android stock (100mb/s) almost 802.11 gibit

[rocket2nfinity]

@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
