      I expected to see the OTA-20 update in the System Settings updates today. Can others see it? I hope my OTA-20 is not being blocked somehow from the old 'Ubuntu Touch Version 2105' update. 🤔

            Hi. How do I turn on ADB access?

              @opolork You need adb and fastboot installed on your pc/laptop. If you are running linux there are terminal commands, if windows 15 sec adb from xda developers installed system wide. Probably best if you switch on developer mode on your phone in System, Settings, About. Then connect your phone to pc with usb cable and grant permission in the pop box.

              Linux terminal commands entre one at atime

              Sudo apt update
              sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update
              sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

                      @domubpkm Hi. Yes, there's another choice. I may give it a little while and then decide. 🙂

                        It never took more than one week for an OTA update to reach my MX4.

                          There is another way but it will remove all update history from the Settings app. Install UT Tweak Tool from the app store and through it, delete cache or data in the Settings app.

                          If I don't remenber it wrong, you could use the filemanager to delete the files if you knows where they are stored. This has been discussed in older threads.

                            @rondarius Hi. I launched UT Tweak Tool but don't see where to delete cache/data in the Settings app. Is it under 'Behavior', 'Apps+Scopes', or 'System' in the UT Tweak Tool top left menu? Thanks.

                                Ah, I didn't expect the Systems Settings to be listed as an app.

                                I check all the boxes. Then had to input my favorite language, city, etc. I did a reboot in case it was needed. In the System Settings updates, it's now empty and says 'Software is up to date'. So I'll just wait for the next few days for OTA-20. 🙂

                                  @opolork I assume you have already used the installer. Haven't you? If so, the installation is easy. I did it this morning with it.

                                    I'll wait a little longer for the update first. Maybe I'll try the installer later on if nothing comes in.

                                      I just checked for updates again. It said 'downloading version 18'. It installed and rebooted. I'm now on OTA-20. 🙂

                                        Thanks for the reminder for something I wanted to ask :

                                        Why does it say version 18 while it's OTA 20 ?!

                                        I would expect it to say Version 20 or simply OTA 20 🙂

                                            I have just updated to OTA-20 and confirm it is listed as Version 18 on the System Settings>Update page, but on the System Settings>About page it is listed as OTA-20.

                                            The version numbering has always been a puzzle to me. As far as I can tell versions numbered in tens are Stable, versions numbered in hundreds are RC, and versions numbered thousands are Development.
