I can't switch back from RC to stable. If i select stable, it doesn't find any update, OTA13 or 12, and if i reboot it is still on RC channel.
Switching on Dev works...

@Keneda Not sure but OTA -13 is the new stable channel and is being rolled out over a few days so maybe that explains it. as in an overlap of updates and channels. Your on the MX4 yes, again not sure which devices have it so far. Have you tried switching it on and off again (sorry couldn't resist).

Keneda

I tried all possible things... I should find at least OTA12 but it just doesn't stay on stable.

I even just got this :

I'm on dev 587 with my BQ E5 HD. I can't read pdf and text files thru morph. Is it normal ?
But i can read mp3 and jpg files when they are in download folder by copy and paste in morph-browser.
Can pdf and text files be read with morph thru OTA-13 ?

@domubpkm have you tried with the top-right icon:

@UBportsNews This line here in your blog post : "sudo system-image-cli -v -p 0 -- progress dots" is supposed to allow you to download OTA-13. There's a space too much between -- and "progress dots". Just so you know.

Just got OTA 13 and it was trouble free. Morph seemed to be faster as expected. Well done to all involved.

@Emphrath Thanks. Fixed.

Faaaaaaaaaast as lightning!

@UBportsNews By the way this command doesn't work for me. It freezes for a while after some informational lines (group download reactor activated, machine status found, GSM offline, and so on) and then gives me a bunch of what looks to be python errors, eventually shutting down. Sorry I couldn't find a way to print out the entire error. Adb enabled, from a ubuntu 16.04 computer (that i haven't updated in a while)

@UBportsNews OTA-13 runs fine on my Oneplus One:-) Thanks a lot for all your work!

@Dolf Same here, update on OPO was just fine (so far tested: phone, cellular data, wifi, bluetooth, audio, all fine). Thanks!

Seem to have lost word suggestion / spellchecking in keyboard since my update this morning. Have tried toggling the settings off and then back on

Anyone else seeing the same? I'm also on Oneplus One

On the Pinephone and also the Meizu Pro 5 I can't view some websites correctly since the update. They have a very dark layer on top that makes it hardly possible to read anything, e.g. https://m.facebook.com/.
On my BQ M10 which is still on OTA-12 it works fine and on my Android device, too (mobile browser, not App). So it's not a website issue...
Has anybody else experienced this?

@jojumaxx

OTA13 brought a newer version of QtWebEngine to power Morph browser.
A newer version means better support for recent websites, but any change comes with "changes" (well obviously)

I cannot tell about facebook, but my overall experience is that OTA13 was for the better in most websites I use.

Also on a side not and as explained there: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/4939/ota-13-on-meizu-pro-5/11?_=1600877439008
Pinephone is not concerned yet by these OTA updates.

@theare27 said in OTA-13 Released!!:

lost word suggestion / spellchecking in keyboard

Still on RC OTA 13 but same here for OSK in morph, in messaging app, still there.
I'm downloading stable OTA13 right now and will tell you if it's the same.

theare27

@Keneda could be a Morph thing I guess, will try different apps

theare27

@theare27 yep, the word suggestion bar on the keyboard is there in Dekko2 and Writer, so must be related to the Morph update

Hmm I guess we're stuck with it this way now till the next OTA then?

@theare27 I can replicate this as well on my Xperia X. To be fair, since the switch to QtWebEngine, a lot of things stopped working properly on the keyboard mainly with the text detection. Since then, auto-corrections, word prediction, etc haven't worked well on the browser/webapps. And now I guess they're totally not working anymore Hopefully someone can take a look on those.
