for all 'modern' sites you should use Morph QT6 instead of Morph. Get it from the store.

@domubpkm

Well, if my calculation is correct that means about 2Mbits/s, it seems quite decent for Bluetooth.

3.1.1

BTW this does not look normal: the version is not incremented while there is about 500 LOC added in the RC version.

BTW 2: I have done already 3 back and forth between 1.2 and 1.3 RC2 and I have trouble reproducing the problem, that is, I have seen the problem in my last reinstall of 1.2 . Color me baffled

Unlike system components and some system apps, Gallery app is a Click application where updates are shipped from OpenStore.

color me surprised.

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ ls /usr/share/click/preinstalled/gallery.ubports/

I was not able to use the Recorder

cancel that, it had absolutely nothing to do with the upgrade, it was just a problem in my phone configuration. Recorder works fine.

This morning after having tested that the new version gallery problem was indeed 'fixed' by returning to the previous stable, I wanted to upgrade to RC and again I see the lack of upgrade channels. For screenshot see https://forums.ubports.com/post/95155 . This may be a new problem, or not. I have never wanted to switch back and forth like that previously.

Edit: I restarted the phone again and the channels were back to normal. This is a transient problem.

Edit 2: checking again, the Update parameters screen is displaying 'Channel: candidate', the system state displays '1.2' and checking updates says that everything is up-to-date. This is a bit messed up

Edit 3: after 2 hours of trying of updating, failing, restarting, switching channel, restarting, failing, I finally discovered in a flash of insight into the minds of advanced developers that the update process is actually testing the update history, the things that are displayed below 'recent updates', and this case of getting RC and stable back and forth has never been really thought to be possible (after all, regressions are something that have never been seen for more than one time or two in all the eons of software development), and so unlocking the switch to RC again needed to delete the previous update history.
So I'm finally on RC3 again. Oups, edit 4: RC2

Looking at the log with my FP5 back to stable 24.04-1.2 I see no such messages.
Messages about 'binding loop' whose fixing was one of the goal of the change.
I see one message about property of nulll but it's of 'isSelected' instead of 'show' and 'path'.

@Linus67

well, there is a choice of error messages about undefined properties in gallery code.

After looking at the MRs, there is one (1) change since 2 years. I don't see anything else but it's not a small change, rather a collection of logically unrelated changes.

@peat_psuwit
should not a 'stable' branch (something like 24-04-1.x that IIRC exist in some other repos) be in the repo and changes be backported only after having seen some testing in the 'unstable' branch ?

@Linus67

thanks, this is so clear that I reinstalled 24.04-1.2 stable and it works fine indeed !
That's a clear regression. Now I'll go to gitlab look at the MR for the gallery app.

@CL_Linuxx

porting UT to a new device may be a task for a UT beginner but not for a Linux beginner. If you don't have compiled many Linux kernels and have no clue about Android design and development you will have a mountain to climb.

No sftp connection, no file sync, no root access.

Err, huh ?

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ which sftp
/usr/bin/sftp
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo ls Pictures
camera.ubports  imported  Screenshots
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ 

here accessed via SSH.

I don't use file sync but I have seen posts about apps for that (recent post about SyncThing IIRC).

Now Ubuntu Touch is phone oriented, it's not a desktop operating system. Don't expect it to run Gimp as easily as on a desktop OS. Don't expect to run apt-get update line on Ubuntu desktop, it can't do that except if you are willing to break it.

@Linus67

Could you describe a bit more what happens exactly ?

I tried to create and populate a photo album on my Fairphone 5 running under RC2 and it was not straightforward but I finally succeeded.

Do you have any error message displayed on the screen ? In the logs (journalctl -b in the terminal or better with Ssh) ?

And are you sure that it's a 1.3 specific problem ? are you managing so many photos album that you are creating new ones with every sub-version of Ubuntu Touch ? (I'm asking because in 6 months of use of UT I was not even aware of photo albums )

@pparent said:

confirm it solves the problem for you?

confirmed, runs fine here.

@Balrong

It is possible to install a click by browsing the web site open-store.io, download it and install from there.

yes the install is an option as advised by @mrt10001.
I have found no other way to install again with UT already installed than running 'sudo reboot bootloader' and launching the installer from there (after connecting the USB cable of course).

@Balrong

Hello

Can you install and run UT Tweaks ? if yes, maybe try to configure at least Clock and delete all data. If it succeeds with this app, consider using the same trick with Calendar and Notes but in this case you may have some important data to get at before attempting it. With Clock you have not much to lose by deleting app data I think.

@peat_psuwit

I installed it, don't see the problem about update channel not displayed. It may have been a fluke.

@domubpkm

You say you are on RC yet the Channel displayed in your second screenshot is 'stable'. It should be 'Candidate' no ?

And your first screenshot display the state as 'Download', so it can't be instalfed yet.

@sixwheeledbeast

I think that @marioch is right and this is a FP5 (or maybe Fairphone ?) problem.

What I see on my FP5 is that the energy use gets only really alarming when location (GPS) is enabled. So I suspect that it is a device specific problem maybe caused by a defect in AGPS causing the device to ask and ask for satellite data when it can't get any.

@domubpkm

but you are on the stable channel ! I see the problem only after updating to RC.
