      @rocket2nfinity Thats bad, it started to happen when I switched to 64 bit I think. This error will prevent media playback and also will drain the battery πŸ™‚ We need to take a look.

        Seems I got Bluetooth already fixed again but it needs a new system.img - also, the torchlight should be all good. In case you want to test this, you can do:

        • sudo -i
        • mount / -o remount,rw
        • sudo mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /var/cache/apt/archives
        • ubports-qa install xenial_-_fix-latched-flash
        • reboot

        That will install a test build of the power indicator, and that enables hopefully the torch. Please tell me if you think its too bright ^^

          @Flohack The light is strong enough but I compared it with my N5 and the light on the N6P is more yellow. I think that they have the same lumen but because of the yellow light, it feels more dim.

                  @Flohack I also note the yellow tint, and the flashlight is actually weaker than the flash using the camera. But it works, and solves the lockup that happens when taking a flash picture. So two fixes with one patch. Wonderful!

                    @rocket2nfinity It must be weaker: Otherwise the LED will burn to the ground. The current is so strong that the LED can only sustain brief amounts of it without overheating. Now when you turn on the torch you might leave it on for minutes - Still I would not recommend this.

                    Some people in the community destroyed their LEDs during playing around with it. Its not easy ^^

                      @rocket2nfinity Hmm I cant imagine that it has smth to do with camera flash tbh. Thats totally unrelated. But ok πŸ˜‰

                        Can someone plz test latest system.img (replace just that, no full install needed) for Bluetooth working again? Ah and to stop this unholy media-server just type initctl stop media-hub in a shell (no sudo, as phablet user) so it wont drain your battery. Still looking into that.

                          @Flohack Is the system image from six days ago the one you want us to test? Don't see one posted today

                              installed twice. Same condition - click one switch on, the other turns off. And that broke the SIM, so no cell service detected now either.

                                  @Flohack I meant to mention that I really like that the settings icons are back. Not a fan of the text only settings menu page. Hope you all plan to keep it that way. Or give us an option to keep the icons if we want.

                                      I fixed again general audio, was a weird one. Please grab latest system.img and replace it with the script, no need for full install. Should bring back music πŸ˜‰

                                        @Flohack great work! Both audio and bluetooth are working for me now.

                                        I had to reapply the torchlight fix from a week ago, but other than that I haven't found any regressions so far πŸ™‚

                                        Still no audio in calls though, but I guess this issue has a different cause...

                                          Actually... some apps are no longer working. For what I can tell they correlate with those mentioned here:

                                          can it be related?

                                            You mean the Webapp brekage? Yes in devel channel (which is the one you get from the CI server) we have a critical bug that affects some or most webapps... Thats unrelated to the porting of this device πŸ˜‰
