        @flohack said in [Porting] Call for Testers:

        Touch buttons are entirely disfunctional in Ubuntu Touch

        But those buttons can be activated, i know because on my MX4 the touch button works (now triggers app drawer, in the canonical era it was app launcher). ^^

        I don't say it's easy, but possible 😸

          Amazing work everything works fine even apt I had to remount the file system in rw to get it to work other than that everything was fine except phone nor SMS I did not have the prompt to enter my pin I'm using a french sim card thow so maybe that why it did not work. Are french phone carriers supported by UT?

              I have found how to workaround the WiFi symbol and AP list problem.
              Connect from ssh and restart the desktop with the following command.

              sudo service lightdm restart

              This doesn't work when executing from the internal terminal. The phone just goes black.

                @ianus another way:
                Install UT Tweak Tool and select system / restart unity 8

                  I see one for sale for $130 I'm getting it
                  It looks like you guys are working on it and I'd be thrilled to help test it

                  I'm assuming this will be a fully functioning smartphone within the next year

                    Since Saturday we now have call audio working, so the only real drawback is now that the WiFi does not show up on every boot, and we cannot put it right into the installer now. But, with the description in the beginning of this thread you can install the latest images and now have more features working πŸ™‚

                      I have a Oneplus 5, doesn't boot past "1+ powered by Android" screen after following all instructions.

                      After running the script, I end up with these in /data

                      android-rootfs.img lost+found media rootfs.img
                      

                      That should be correct with -s

                      Has anyone here gotten the current images to run on a Oneplus 5?

                        Hi everyone, I'm very happy to see this happening as a owner of both devices (5 and 5T). Not being a developer i would be very happy to help out with testing.
                        The building/flashing process (following the instructions on the pad) just works very flawlessly, but unfortunately I'm not being able to run the OS. I am using the oneplus5 to try this out and I am getting the same result many already got in this thread: stuck on oneplus logo.

                        i checked the presence and size of the files on /data/ :
                        487043072 android-rootfs.img (slightly smaller then someone above)
                        3221225472 rootfs.img

                        I've spot this on nautilusScreenshot from 2021-05-25 20-57-52.png

                        and this is what dmesg says about it
                        Screenshot from 2021-05-25 20-58-49.png

                        i hope this can help someone to help me back. ask any questions i can try whatever.

                          @j0e Did you have encrypted partitions before?

                            thanks for your reply @flohack

                            yes i had it. but i wiped and formatted it on twrp.
                            and twrp not asking for the password anymore should be a sign of a not encrypted userdata, right?

                            i turned off and then back on the phone and i can now telnet into the device. i can see some errors about /root/ being read-only on dmesg. any idea?

                              @j0e You have to flash rootfs.img(after execute that script,located in /data) into system partition.

                                  @j0e No, I just flash rootfs.img to system partition and then it had been fixed

                                        Hi,

                                        In my street there's a shop that sells second hand devices. One of them it's the Oneplus 5t it's the 64GB/6GB RAM version around 100Β£.

                                        I'm thinking of Oneplus 5t to replace my old nexus 5. It's a cheap solution for me and newer than my current device.

                                        I'm ok with some of the bugs mentioned. Just need the basics, phone calls and sms are working fine?

                                        Thanks for every feedback received!

                                          @ivo_xavier Works fine, but I got problem when I used lte network. I can receive call but incoming is impossible

                                            @thomas-k8s Thank you for your valuable input. I'm almost convinced that oneplus 5t will be my device for the years to come.

                                              @thomas-k8s yes sorry, there is generally no VoLTE in Ubuntu Touch at the moment, and its very questionable if it will every be fixed, due to custom undocumented vendor applications. All mobile phone projects outside of Android and iOS struggle with that.

                                              Even LineageOS does not support VoLTE on all ports.
