@Dave said in UBports firmware for device "Volla Phone 22 with new display (mimameid_h12)" does not boot when using the "stable" or "rc" channels.:
Installing the 20.04/devel channel does infact result in a booting Phone!!
I now did run 20.04/devel mimameid_h12 firmware (r766, build date 2024/09/07) for over a week. It mostly works, but I did run into occasional problems:
Problems Encountered
- telephony sometimes gets stuck in a state, where phone-calls do not have any audio into neither direction. this could not be fixed by toggeling flight-mode on/off, only a full reboot helped. I haven't yet found out what triggers this. For me this happens on average after a few phone calls.
- I had an SMS problem once, where after sending an SMS, it spun endlessly, then after a few minutes the transmitted SMS was marked as "failed" (I'm running the Japanese locale, it said 失敗 in red below the SMS).
- keeping cellular data connected all the time. however, when not having used internet in a while, starting the morph-browser it errs out with "err_disconnected" or similar. toggling cellular data on/off fixes the issue.
- recording video via the photo app does not work at all. the photo app just gets stuck, when trying to record a video. taking photos works, though.
What did work
- GPS did work when I tested it once (using uNav)
- wifi connects without problems here (5 GHz network)
- web browsing appears stable via cellular data and wifi
- no crashes encountered so far
- battery usage appears to be good to me
Not tested yet
- bluetooth
