Awesome! Congratulations to the whole Team!
Just a question: The blog says that OTA-15 will bring new fixes to the Vollaphone, however Vollaphone is not in the list of devices supported by this OTA.
Do you know how will be this OTA pushed to Volla users?Thank you!

Sorry, I forgot to put it in the list. I have fixed the post now.

@unisuperbox Ok nice! Thank you!
-
I have the Vollaphone, and in the update section it says 'Release candidate' as channel.
I can't remember ever getting updates for other than apps and store on this phone.
I can't choose other channels. Am I just impatient, or is something wrong?Cheers!

@st0rk If you are on RC you will already have OTA-15 and will have been using it for a few days at least. All the changes work through from devel to RC then Stable which is when the OTA is officially released. As a double check make sure all apps are updated then run Update again and you will be fully upto date.
The cycle will then start again for OTA-16.
I don't have a Volla but does it have a stable channel yet or just RC and devel? -
@lakotaubp
The thing is I can't choose any other release channels, as I get no options when searching - only release candidate.
When going to the 'About' tab, it says: Ubuntu 16.04 (2020-W41)
Last update: 07.10.2020That makes me think something is not right, and I'm on an old RC.
Tried to find a way to maybe force an update through command line, but haven't found a 'for dummies' guide for that yet.
All apps and store is updated. I tried:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgradeThat's more or less what my skills with the command line will get me
Cheers!

@st0rk My guess is that the Volla phone has no stable channel yet but it'll get one with OTA-15. Also, please don't do the apt updates. It may work and can do unexpected things to your device
-
@kugiigi
OK
Just checked again, and my list of channels to get updates from is empty.
I'll wait and see what happens during the next couple of days.
Thanks! -
@st0rk It seems that Vollaphone on OTA-15 stable has some issues to be fixed before to be available. Here's a post of Marc Aurel (this morning) on Volla Telegram group:
"I can confirm, that the RC and developer channel running the next release. However we need to fix some issues regarding a stable cellular network connection to release the version for the stable channel. Anyway we are on a good way."
Another thing: Generally OTA updates need to be downloaded through the wifi and not via a cellular network, so make sure that you are connected to a decent WiFi access point.

@stanwood
Can't seem to find that post, but I beleive Volla will come with a monthly update before the 23rd.
Meanwhile I'll arm myself with patience, stable wifi and cookies -

I almost always use cellular connection to make UBports OTA updates and that without any problem.

@libremax Right, you can change it on the updates settings (only wifi / cellular and wifi)

Hurray! I can't wait... okay, yes, I can. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Congratulations !!!

I have the same issue as described a few posts earlier by @st0rk. Are there any news about the update of Vollaphones to OTA-15?
-
@heiko OTA-15 is available for Vollaphone. Did you check in settings =» updates?
-
It it the last day of the year and I still haven't got the OTA-15 update on my bq Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition (krillin):
I am on stable channel. When will it be available?
-
@stanwood yes I did. The actual situation is:
When I open the update settings it says:
By the way: I never changed these settings to "release candidate". They were already like that when my Vollaphone was delivered.
When I try to change the Channel ist says:
The fetching-process takes about 10min. (Which is much more compared to my former BQ E5). Maybe there is some kind of timeout after 10 min, but thats only a guess. After that I get:
There is no Channel at all to chose.
When I get back it says:
