Bacon goes focal!
-
r90 update hoses the system with a screen size issue. The text is too small to read. It was a swine to install too. I am currently trying the installer to see if that solves it. The display crashes a few times before reverting to tiny text.
-
since three days the scaling is wrong, so the device is not operable. I've tried the installer last two days but it is allways the same
-
@thoralf68 Unfortunately this is a regression in the main rootfs, so this bug is affecting all devices currently. Best that we can do is wait and let the core devs fix the issue
-
Some are posting the same issues on other devices, thanks for the heads up @TheVancedGamer
-
Just a quick heads-up: the 20.04/devel channel seems to have broken without us noticing. We're (more like me :P) trying to investigate it. In the meantime please avoid updating until the issue is resolved. Thanks!
-
@TheVancedGamer Thanks for letting us know. Have been waiting for a fix.
-
@TheVancedGamer
Isn't it possible to suspend a faulty OTA, by reverting back the channel to the last one working for instance ?Not everyone read the forum everyday, so some will update without knowing there is an issue.
-
@Keneda I'm not sure, I still don't know when it broke, I just know it broke at some point while trying to fix flashlight yesterday I accidentally updated to latest and now my device is permanently stuck in a bootloop. Oops
-
Good news! We managed to figure out why it was acting up, and it was all down to one file that managed scaling. Wanna know why it was faulty? Because it was edited in Windows.
-
Whatever the case might be, now OpO is usable again, and can finally be reinstalled using installer!
-
there we have it -
I believe @MrT10001 might be interested
-
@TheVancedGamer I believe I might be...
( as you are) -
@MrT10001 So far, no modem has loaded, which means no network at all (No IMEI).
It took two attempts to get going, i.e to boot into UT - that took a fair while.
No sound either.

Hi all,
Is there an up to date list anywhere for the Oneplus One with Focal 20.04 showing what works and what doesn't yet? I keep on searching online and coming up with the old 16 Bacon list, but can't find an up to date 20.04 Focal one.
I'm a regular user, not a developer, so am looking for a simple list detailing: telephone, contacts, text, Wi-Fi, camera, flash, USB, Bluetooth etc... Also apps such as web browser, email client, Axolotl signal client etc..
Basically as this is my main phone I don't want to commit to the upgrade until I know I can use it fully, or at least mostly as my daily phone - as to be fair the old 16 Bacon is dying slowly, certain apps are no longer supported. So I'm just weighing up sticking around on 16 VS going to 20 based on which ticks the most boxes!
Cheers, Scott

I don't know if it's up to date but there is the official list :

Hi @Keneda , that's exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
So according to the list, it appears that the main present unknowns are cellular calls, text messages and camera.
I will keep an eye on that page to see if/when anything changes.
Many thanks again, Scott.

@scottbouch
You're welcome.
Link is already in the first post of this thread BTW (saw that after giving it to you lol). -
@scottbouch BTW, focal is still very much a work-in-progress, I work on it only in my free time (of which I don't have a lot anymore) and progress will be very slow due to the old kernel.
-
@TheVancedGamer Thank you for the note, I think we all can appreciate how difficult it is to fit voluntary work (of any kind) around work and family life, so I take my hat off to all the developers who have contributed to this great project! Thank you.
I see there are other handsets that get more attention and have progressed further, but these sets sit a little outside of my budget! I will watch for developments with the OPO...
Cheers, Scott
