It is more than recommended to downgrade to the needed V12.0.9.0.QJGMIXM Android 10 version.

Hello,

surya is the codename of Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC,
and karna is the codename of Indian POCO X3.

You can check it by typing in a terminal

getprop | grep surya

or

getprop | grep karna

Is there a way to make VoLTE work with radioInterface = 1.4 ?

Finally, after commenting on the IMS services lines in the file init.disabled.rc the VoLTE works with radioInterface = 1.4 on POCO X3 NFC.

Some features don't seem to work properly anymore.
I will report on the issues encountered after a few days of testing.

I'm working on the POCO X3 NFC (surya) port with the maintainer and I tried Marius' changes, without success.
The device is 4G only, and there is no android.hardware.radio@1.5.so (android 10).

Hi @peat_psuwit

How to check if noble image is available for poco x3 (surya) ?

I tried

system-image-cli --list-channels

but an exception occurs every time.

Hi,

As suggested by @Fuseteam, I disabled data connection and I did a new test (still without BatterySaver app):

3. Wi-Fi on, data off : 38 hours of battery lifetime

Same as Wi-Fi on and data on.
It seems that the data connection is not used while Wi-Fi is on.

HI @Moem

I get longer battery life when Wi-fi is on : 38 hours…

Interesting! Are you running the Battery Saver app?

No. Not during these tests.

Hi @Fizz

Interesting that you get the opposite that i do; i get longer battery life when wi-fi is on.

I get longer battery life when Wi-fi is on : 38 hours…

Hi,

Anyone else experiencing any of this type of behavior on their devices?

After @Fizz's post, I've done two measurements (on my Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC):

1. With Wi-Fi off, data on, I measured 27 hours of battery lifetime.

2. in same conditions, but with Wi-Fi on, data on, I measured 38 hours of battery lifetime

An installation guide for Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC / X3, is available at :
https://gitlab.com/EricHeintzmann/ubuntu-touch/xiaomi-surya/-/wikis/POCOX3-Installation-Guide

in this guide :

• Product Authentication
• Checking the correct firmware
• Flashing firmware
• Unlocking the bootloader
• Installing Ubuntu Touch

On Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC (surya) , when I made the MR17, one month ago, I had measured a battery endurance of 34 hours (devel channel).

Now, after OTA-5 (stable channel), I measure a 22-hour endurance…

These 2 measurements were made in similar conditions: only phone calls, SMS, messages written on telegram, and web browsing with morph (no Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, VPN nor Waydroid)

The problem has been discovered and confirmed by @Boldos , on the ut_pocox3 TG.

@MrT10001 said in Unlocking bootloader from Linux. Possible?:

The 6T is a great device. To get the correct ROM version (Android 9) you have to use the MSMDownload tool and EDL mode,

Can MSMDonwload tool be launched on non Windows system ?

Hello. Do you happen to know which device FredFast is using? Is it also POCO X3 NFC?

yes POCO X3 NFC too

If this is on a public Telegram group, could you please link me to the discussion?

It is a very long discussion… It starts at https://t.me/ut_pocox3/12861

Also, which Telegram app are you using? There's a few versions of Telegram web app in the OpenStore. Meanwhile, TELEports does not use QtWebEngine (at least for the main operations).

https://open-store.io/app/nl.btr.telegram

At least with Morph Browser, I'm unable to reproduce the issue on Volla Phone, Volla Phone X23, and Fairphone 4.

The procedure I (and Fred) used is to send audio message to myself with telegram

P.S.
before reporting here, I reverted all fixes, switched to RC channel and tested

@James-T
I noticed, however, that I received less advertising when I was using a VPN.
That said, I don't recommend any particular phone.
I sent you these posts, only so you have all the cards in hand to make your choice.

Hi @domubpkm
yes, according to @vgd111
« Yes, some messages look like our case. But some don't. Like similar bugs combined together. »

Hi @James-T

According to its device page, Oneplus 6T doesn't support fingerprint reader.
And a quick look at its kernel commits doesn't show WireGuard support, so you will not able to use hide.me VPN app.
And it seems there are issues with Offline charging, Shutdown / Reboot and Notification LED.

With POCO X3, fingerprint reader and Notification LRD works and no issue with Offline charging, Shutdown / Reboot.
WireGuard is supported too. Hide.me (with UT app) and ProtonVPN (command line) have been successfully tested.

Another regression with POCO X3 on the RC channel, more serious than the previous one.

It reported by 2 different users @vgd111 and StefanZ on X3 TG :
« On RC channel, I've experienced “screen panic” — random parts of the screen were pressed. Setting the screen off calmed down my phone. But after that there were random opened apps and some random letters typed. Is it a device or UT? »

in the logs (journalctl) these messages are repeated

lomiri[5062]: [2024-07-27:19:41:38.977] TouchPointPressed without previous release event QQuickEventPoint(accepted:false state:Pressed
lomiri[5062]: [2024-07-27:19:41:39.405] qtmir.surfaces: MirSurfaceItem() - Got a QEvent::TouchBegin while there's still an active/unfinished touch sequence.

If anyone is interested, we can provide complete logs

Almost everything works fine on the POCO X3 NFC (surya) after switching to the RC channel.
However, there is a sound issue detected by FredFast, thanks to the Telegram app.
When you record an audio message, or during a call, you hear clicks/crackles.
These sounds disappear if you add “--audio-buffer-size=2048” to the QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS environment variable.
According to FredFast, this is a new bug, not present in OTA-4.

I don't know if this is an important bug, as I haven't had time to test other applications, but as it could affect all QTWebEngine-based applications, including Morph, I prefer to report it here.

Hello,

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

Thanks
