Hi,

I have had a issue for a while that sometimes touch input just stops working. To get it to work again I have to lock the phone. Then after unlocking it works fine again.

It also sometimes freezes for a little bit and then inputs my actions in quick succession.

This is starting to frustrate me now, anyone know how to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I have been using Ubuntu Touch on my Volla phone for over a week now and encountered some issues with the UI/Launcher thingy. I thought I list them here, maybe they are already getting addressed?

• No support for phones with rounded corners.
• No support for phones with camera notch.
• Lockscreen doesn't work as intended, I suppose to see some text when I tap the circle but it just tries to show the launcher instead.
• The place where you see all the apps is slow and sometimes show duplicates Anbox apps.

Other then this I didn't notice anything big or annoying.
I really like the gesture to open the running apps view and to open the list of apps.

The rounded corners and camera notch issue I fixed by applying this "hax" https://github.com/JamiKettunen/unity8-notch-hax It is not perfect but it did help a lot.

I hope it helps a little reporting on it

I managed to install Waydroid after reinstalling Ubuntu Touch OTA-19. I followed the instructions from another thread.
But be careful, messing it up might force you to reinstall Ubuntu Touch.

Waydroid is running much better than Anbox. Like Keneda is pointing out it is still " in early testing shape" well a month less early testing shape now!
And has a easier way to install it

Om RC channel now. So far my screen didn't act up. Everything feels a bit smoother too.

"I am Ubuntu Touch"

Hello!

I have been enjoying my new Volla Phone with Ubuntu Touch(stable channel) for a few days and was wondering how I could run the latest version of Waydroid correctly.

I first looked here https://github.com/waydroid/anbox-halium
And then I execute this command

wget -O - https://github.com/Anbox-halium/anbox-halium/raw/lineage-17.1/scripts/install.sh | bash

And when I run "run-container.sh" I get an error about ashem or binder. No idea what that is...

When looking around more I found this.
https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/anbox.html#run-anbox-installer

I just had to execute this command in my terminal

anbox-tool install

This worked and I now have Anbox running but it runs on Android 7.1.1 while Waydroid is using lineage 17.1 which is Android 10.

Also it runs really slow I have the feeling that I did something wrong.

The version of Anbox I am running doesn't want to install the Banking app that I need.

tl;dr:

How can I install/run the latest version of Waydroid?

@keneda Thanks
I guess I will wait until there is a easy way to install it.

@wgarcia I have no screen protector and cleaned my screen seberal times with no succes
I guess I try to contact Volla Support

@mv said in Volla phone touch screen freeze.:

@quget
I got the same problem. The Volla support suggested to try to clean the display, and eventually to send it back.
I cleaned it but no result. I suspect is a display problem.

Same here, but sending back is not an option for me. I dont have a good working replacement phone. If it was just dirty, I am curious how locking and unlocking make it work again.

@quget my screen acted up today. It did random inputs several times without me touching the screen.

Well no freezes yet.

Om RC channel now. So far my screen didn't act up. Everything feels a bit smoother too.

@domubpkm doesnt matter what application I have open it just sometimes stops respondimg to my input. Until I lock and unlock my screen.

Could it be that an update went wrong on my side?

@alter I am on stable channel
so currently OTA 22
I daily drive my phone, so RC channel would be bad idea I think

Whole ui randomly restarts sometimes when I use waydroid and try to use multiple apps in Ubuntu touch as well. (not trying to shutdown) all apps close too while I dont want that.

Would this be related?

Nice concept.

Is the idea to keep the finger on the screen to unlock or just to press the numbers?

My first instinct was to keep my finger on the clock and swipe the code which felt nice for me

@domubpkm said in OTA 22:

@davealbiston If you speak of Volla, all is right for me. I would just advise you not to try to activate the bluetooth. Not only may it not work, but you may have problems disabling it. But it isn't an OTA-22 issue.
All other features work fine.

Bluetooth seem to work fine on my volla phone. OTA updates went well for me so far
