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

As there's now two whole observations of the edge channel working, I should at that the developing image (and probably all the others as well) boot just fine when you change the release channel after the install.
I'd also recommend doing this, as things are a bit broken in the edge release.

So just on a whim i decided to try the installer under windows instead of linux and it kept booting into recovery. As soon as i did the same in a ubuntu virtual machine it worked perfectly. Just somethung i noticed. Also, when switching from mobile data to wifi it doesnt give me connection until i toggle wifi off and back on.

Hmm @All, stable channel might still be bugged since I needed to fix a symlink for the vendor partition. So its either devel or edge that works, I prefer to use devel, edge can really break from time to time

I just tried switching to stable from within UT and it sent me back to the Google boot screen. It's possible that I was impatient, but it seemed like it was stuck on it for far longer than it should've been.
I re-flashed to edge and it's working again. @Flohack Next time I'll try updating to devel instead from within UT.
-
@gerg Yes stable not confirmed to work at all. I will put a note up there...
-
@All I quickly decided to release a new version for RC and stable channels so that boot problem should be out of the way also soon ^^

@ftnirp camera is working for me on edge FWIW
-
@gerg Thanks i will try it right now
-
@ftnirp correction: still photos are working. video causes the app to hang, easy to restart it though
-
Maybe we could submit some tests to help out @NeoTheThird with the installer. You could submit the test manually on this site:
-
Had the phone completely lock up on me today while downloading a file. Had to hard reboot it.
-
I'm not sure whether this is a device specific issue, but one thing I have been experiencing since the beginning with this port is the following:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1174
In a nutshell, the pictures taken with the camera always have the same orientation relative to the phone, instead being rotated properly relative to the ground by using the reading from the accelerometer.
I know this is more of an annoyance rather than a critical bug... Any known solutions or workarounds?

@Flohack I have trouble with no sound on incomming calls.
I have sound on incomming sms.
I'm able to play the ringtones in sound settings.
I have sound on alarms.These are the steps that I have done so far:
Rebooted the phone.
Muted-unmuted, both in the indicator bar and in sound settings.
I'm on Devel, moved to Stable after that to Edge.
Reinstalled the phone(no wipe) with installer 0.5.4-beta, to Edge.
Nothing worked.
Is there someone else with the same problems?
-
@Rondarius Just tested alarm, audio, phone and sms on latest dev build. All working here. Maybe you had some sort of crash with audio modules.

@Rondarius I have the same trouble with the sound on incomming calls, but I do the same steps on install.

Interesting, we might have broken it in the rootfs. I also miss sound now, but it worked for months before.
-
Yes it seems the bug was introduced a few days or 1 week ago. People are looking into this...
-
@Flohack Great news.
@iordanov @rocket2nfinity thanks for the feedback and for the support. -
Hmm I got a new problem here: Sudden shutdowns.
So basically first I thought I ran out of battery, then maybe the battery gets old and thats why the phone suddenly shuts down, but thats not the case: Just now the phone shut down while connected to charging cable. And with over 60% of battery.
Does anyone know about this glitch? I am a fraid my phone starts dying. N6P was a great idea, but it seems the hardware design was poor. Also regarding this 4-core-bug.
