One option I've tested is to use Crackle to install the version of python you want
After that, you can use pip and venv.

@uxes said in Working VoLTE reports, share your experience:

after some months of using, i know that after start using volte, 4G internet sometimes stop working, maybe after call/sms only thing that helps is to disable/enable data in indicators (no reboot required)
Eric from poco reported that adding new APN may help

For those interested in activating VoLTE on the Poco X3, here are the steps I followed:

• After enabling VoLTE, I noticed errors in the logs related to context 1 of ofono. To address this, I replaced this context with a new APN "Internet & MMS" using the commands available in /usr/share/ofono/scripts/.
• I also removed an unused connection using ncli connection.

While I can't guarantee that these modifications are the solution, I haven't encountered any issues since.

It's important to note that after exiting airplane mode, the poco often struggles to reconnect to VoLTE without a reboot.

It is possible to obtain a list of all devices in devel where VoLTE is enabled by conducting a search on Gitlab :

Maybe you will be interested in Daniel Pratt's tests with T-Mobile in the USA on a Poco X3 NFC ?

Hello,

Will it be possible to use the Alfred's browser engine instead of QtWebengine to create webapps for UT ?

Thanks

The UT deviceinfo file for the new port of sargo/bonito can be found here : https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/android12/google-pixel-3a/google-sargo/-/blob/main/deviceinfo?ref_type=heads

deviceinfo_kernel_cmdline is empty and should probably be completed.

The documentation is available at https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/build_and_boot/standalone_kernel_build.html#filling-in-your-deviceinfo

There is also a sample file : https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/halium-generic-adaptation-build-tools/-/blob/main/deviceinfo.sample?ref_type=heads

Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC (surya)

• Calls: OK
• SMS: OK
• Cellular data: OK
• Address book app : OK (can remove pictures)
• Web browser (Morph): OK
• Wi-Fi settings: OK (WPA3 !)
• MMS
  • OK in 3G &4G
  • cannot send or receive MMS in 2G when I make call (but it's not new)

I tested version 2025-W22 on my Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC (surya), and here are my observations:

• The notification LED works normally
• Emojis display correctly.
• Waydroid functions without issues. So far, I haven't noticed any regressions.

Regarding VoLTE:

• With VoLTE disabled:
  Basic functionalities (calls, SMS, MMS, and cellular data) work perfectly.

• With VoLTE enabled:
  Basic functionalities (calls, SMS, MMS, and cellular data) also work.
  However, when the phone exits airplane mode, it often struggles to reconnect to VoLTE.

Other users have reported issues related to VoLTE that I couldn't reproduce, but I mention them here in case they might be useful:

• Inability to send SMS when VoLTE is enabled (https://forums.ubports.com/post/85788).
• Inability to download messages with Teleports when VoLTE is enabled (https://t.me/ut_pocox3/18228).
• Difficulty hanging up after a call when VoLTE is enabled (https://t.me/ut_pocox3/18506).This happened to me once and seems to occur randomly.

There is a script to extract command line args and other needed fields.
See at https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/build_and_boot/standalone_kernel_build.html#extracting-values-from-stock-boot-img-vendor-boot-img

@AetheralMeowstic
in the new halium 12 port for sargo and bonito, VoLTE is configured, yes, but the port is not finalized.

@isidroarias
It looks like this error : https://forums.ubports.com/post/87147

I suggest to reflash android 10 to restore all partitions (do not relock the bootloader).
Then reinstall Ubuntu Touch.

@atarilinux

1. You have a retro-fitted super partition
2. You have images
3. You have the procedure to flash images in retro-fitted super partition : https://source.android.com/docs/core/architecture/bootloader/fastbootd#dynamic-partitions

What else ?

@atarilinux
AFAIK, these devices use a super partition, but not a retro-fitted one.
But, I don't think the build system is aware of the partition type.

@atarilinux
I see same errors (cp and losesetup) in other ports.
For example:

• on Faiphone 4
• on Fairphone5
• on Poco X3
• ...

here's an example of flashing devel images on a device with a super partition :

About fastbootd :
https://source.android.com/docs/core/architecture/bootloader/fastbootd

@atarilinux
It uses android 10 version with a repartitioned super.img

For more details : https://github.com/ubuntu-touch-surya/ubuntu-touch-surya/releases/tag/stable-repartition

About pixel 3a android 12 partitionning, i don't know.

@MrT10001
In order to update the installation guide, what are the requirements to install UT on poco X3 from windows 11 ?
Latest version of fastboot/adb ? Drivers ?
Where to download them ?

@Blablub
After extracting the tgzipped MUI ROM, the flash_all.sh script is in the newly created folder.
