Google Pixel 3a (sargo)
-
@Hawi It's just the little notification LED most phones have above the screen.
-
@thilov ok thanks
-
I purchased a 3A XL and will be trying this soon, has any progress been made on adding this to the ubports installer?
-
Can you use DisplayPort via USB c on this?
-
@fredldotme For anyone interested, I followed the instructions and was able to install UT on the 3A XL perfectly; with that being said, calls and sms out work perfect, but not sms in, mms or data, and its because im not able to add or edit the apn, the setting wont stay when i change them.. Is this issue also on the 3A?
I have and reported this same issue with pinephone as well

I was able to get the apn settings to stick and everything works except sms in as mentioned above, im willinf to help debug this with some guidance to get this working
Also, GPS is working perfect for me!
-
@dieharddan I'm surprised about GPS, would have to retest that myself.
Regarding SMS: You would have to, at least, check what happens in the logat radio log and, additionally, enable ofonod debugging.
To follow the radio log (Using SSH,
phablet@10.15.19.82
) :sudo env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/system/lib64:/vendor/lib64 /system/bin/logcat -b radio
Try to send yourself an SMS and check whether anything moves in the log and what exactly happens. Also, make sure you remove any private information from the log before sending it to me or posting it here.
-
@fredldotme I sent the sms at 08-25 03:07:30.243 (near the bottom), but doesn't look like anything happens, as a test i made a call and it does show logs then, also i used my ip address instead of the 10.15.19.82, not sure if that makes any difference..

@dieharddan maybe a pastebin service like paste.ubuntu.com would be better for such long logs. Could you please share them there, post the link here and remove the logs you posted already instead?

-
@dieharddan I remember going back to an older 9.0 based factory image to get rid of the
qcril_google_init() Fail.
line, maybe it's related to the SMS receive issues. -
@fredldotme ill give it a shot and see what happens
-
@fredldotme Downgraded to the oldest 9.0 and also tried the newest 10.0, no sms on either
-
The Pixel 3a does not have a notification led. I have heard the led screen uses such low power when black that you can simulate one.
-
I'm currently working on the Pixel 3a port again. We're not going to use the GSI for an initial release, we'll require device-specific Halium builds instead for now. This means that for the 3a XL variant someone has to step up and work together with us to support it, as subtle differences make that the better approach.
-
@dieharddan still rocking the 3a XL? If you want to help us support the device, I have made changes so that the Halium build can start now. We'll soon have Installer support for the 3a, which means there is very little for you to do to support it.
-
@fredldotme Had to sell it unfortunately, I plan to repurchase later and will contact you when I do
-
Hi @fredldotme , I know from the ubuntu touch Q&A that sargo is coming and you are looking for users with bonito users.
However, how similar are pixel 3 & pixel 3 XL with the sargo ? Will they work or is it too different ? Currently thinking of getting a bonito as they are available locally but there are more pixel 3/xl available than bonito
-
@kaiyes The Pixel 3/3XL would need a new port, that I can't help much with. So it would be better to get a sargo (or bonito if you want to help).
In other news, I haven't been able to reproduce the SMS problem as of late, so that should be fixed on sargo.
