OTA-22 Call for Testing Companion Post

flohack

The phasing of device updates is 1%/hr so after 100 hours every device can download the update - Note also that with this OTA we try to bring back the push notification so that people get informed when its ready.

@flohack I shall await notification on my Volla Phone X and report back....... if I can resist the usual temptation to press 'check for updates' every time I turn my phone on!

Ian

@flohack Notification popped up Sunday morning at about 09:10 UTC. Clicked on message and taken to updates page in setrings. Clicked on download and install. It took longer than normal to install but I guess that is to be expected. Volla Phone X then booted up in OTA22.

It is nice to have notification of upgrade back, many thanks.

Went into settings, security and set up the fingerprint reader. Put phone to sleep and woke it up with the reader, fantastic. Then put it to sleep and tried to wake it with a different finger which failed as expected. This also locked out the unlock with fingerprint and I had to use my lockphrase to get in. Nice touch, you know if someone tried to get in. After that the option wored as expected.

Bluetooth always ON on Vollaphone X. Even I turn off, it turns on again.

@naizena Well spotted! I have the same issue on my Volla Phone X. Did you also have your phablet turn into a tablet?

@naizena I don't have a Volla X, only a Volla and bluetooth have issues on it. I don't use it at all..
Maybe the linux command line sudo service bluetooth stop can help.

And no way to turn on wifi once off. It dissappears from options.

naizena

@domubpkm Yes, it works. Thanks

domubpkm

@naizena Maybe try sudo service bluetooth start and reboot the phone ?

Ian

@naizena Same on my Volla Phone X. Restart didn't solve it but shutdown and turn back on brought the wifi on/off button back in the pulldown menu.

naizena

@ian It worked for me too. Thank you.

Ian

@domubpkm Good idea. Stoping the bluetooth service from the terminal turns off the radio and saves my battery.

Turning the service backon from the terminal followed by power off the phone and turn back on again gets bluetooth working to a BT speaker again..... but still unable to turn BT off either from the pull down menu from the indicators or from the settings page.
