I figured out a way to do a manual install using TWRP of an old version of UBPorts, then I can use the UBPorts installer on a phone that has UBPorts on it already. So I do not need to try building from source and doing these things. Marked as solved. I put the steps I took in the OnePlus specific forum instead of the general support area.

If on the off chance anybody actually knows how to use this script, I would like to hear about it. Feel free to put the information out there.

Just wanted to clarify,

Yes, it was two monitors but they were mirrored, not extended. Makes the second monitor pointless for now.

Hello,

My SMS (picture messages) has stopped working again, what happens is when I try to send a picture the spinner just never stops.

Fun times since the newest version 11.2 of the ubports-installer no longer contains the checkbox option for a clean wipe user data install. So my only option for fixing this is completely gone.

What do I do?

Its a Oneplus Nord 10 5G, with stable 24.04-1.

When I plug my Ubports phone into my computer, I would like to see a popup on the phone screen with a yes/no in it to allow file transfers via USB, a sort of limited permissions granting. Right now in Dolphin KDE the phone does appear but the window is completely empty.

I do not want to always enable admin developer mode on the phone with maximum permissions just to grab a few photos. Is this currently possible to enable in Ubports settings somewhere?

Interesting. As soon as I restarted the daemon with 'sudo systemctl daemon-reload' and 'sudo systemctl restart ofono', a flood of plain text messages instantly came in. They're all dated for now, but they're probably from over the course of the last several days.

The last text message that my phone thinks I received was three days ago, 1/12/26. That's not all of a sudden because everybody texted me all at once this moment, especially at this time of the night.

Hopefully these logs contain some super magic.

I hadn't had a chance until now to get to this.

@gpatel-fr Thank you, I will do these things a little later today.

I'm not really too worried about disk space at this point. I feel like once I have something tangible and I can put in a bug report I'm going to try to do a full reset and wipeout anyways. Nuking it from orbit has always worked for me.

I just checked and this is not correct; after clicking 'Install' there is in the following screen a checkbox to wipe personal data (it is not checked by default)

Oof, I can see it in your screenshot. on my screen it looks invisible. I checked on where it is and it lights up. Thank you. But still, I do not want to be in this cycle anymore. I want to try to troubleshoot this with logs or something, put in a bug ticket first.

@lduboeuf Hello, good to see you again.

I have not yet pinged the porter about this but I have seen this problem on multiple phones. I am currently now on a OP Nord but I saw the same issue on a FP4. Also saw it on a Pixel 3.

I may try the daily channel soon.

Things have gotten worse now, actually. I was on 20.04 as of Friday. I cannot receive regular text based text messages now. But I can still send messages out, if I call and ask. The text based will be received successfully.

If you want to read the debug information of ofonod, it's possible to enable it but this is not a light reading.

ofonod sounds wonderful, I have been struggling with this issue on and off for quite some time and I have had exactly nothing by way of troubleshooting so far.

Where this is going is I need to create a bug report but I am not interested in just creating something on gitlab that says its broke can you fix it?

I do have wifi disabled (its grey) and cellular data is on (switch is green). I can access websites currently.(if it matters)

How can I access ofonod?

@gpatel-fr said in How can I troubleshoot broken SMS?:

I can't imagine how wiping out all user data could fix this problem.

I have always interpreted the wipe option that is in the ubports installer as a clean wipe of everything on the phone(settings, etc), not just removing what is in one or two folders. Admittedly I know much less about linux on a phone than I do on a linux desktop, have been a linux user for over a decade. Also troubleshooting desktops is a little better well documented in a lot of different places than these phones. I can only tell you what has happened. Any time I have lost the ability to send photos through text, I back up my data and phone book, do a full reinstall/wipe with ubports installer, and back to functioning properly it goes. For a while. Then I have to wipe again. But now I can't do that anymore.

My expectation currently is that I should be able to open the camera app from the side bar, take a photo of something with the phone's camera, then go to the text messaging app and send the photo to someone in my contacts list. To be clear, this functionality does work after I do a clean wipe. It just stops working intermittently and I don't know why.

@ezst036 if you have issues downloading images in messages that may be issue of turned on wifi when mms is not working

Thank you. Currently receiving photos does not function either, and my wifi is disabled. If I tell someone to send me a photo, its just nothing. Nothing happens. No warning, no click here to download, nada. It's just dead silent as if nothing ever happened.

@kugiigi Oh, I thought this was a UT thing... Ok, thank you very much for your answer, I will report this.

Was curious, could you provide a link to the bug report? Thank you.

Thank everyone for their thoughts.

I have not changed network providers recently or done anything else which would seem to stand out. No new app installs from the store or anything.

I'll keep looking for a way to troubleshoot this and report back if it is found.

When I open up the phone app recently, now it has changed so that I have to wait like 6 seconds and there is a message at the top left that says "Initializing..."

How can I troubleshoot and fix this?

Seems to be the same whether or not I have security in place or no locking code.

I normally have no lock code. So when I turn the screen on the phone is simply ready to do things. That is probably considered a bad practice, but it is for this reason why I always have developer mode disabled.

Do you keep a lock code and then developer mode (most of the time)enabled?

When I plug my Ubports phone into my computer, I would like to see a popup on the phone screen with a yes/no in it to allow file transfers via USB, a sort of limited permissions granting. Right now in Dolphin KDE the phone does appear but the window is completely empty.
