@dieharddan I got mine from there too with no problems. I got a 3aXL.

This is an issue affecting Pixel 3a, Pixel 3a XL, Nexus 5 and OnePlusOne models afaik. It looks like nobody knows how to solve it yet or those who know have no time to put into this at the moment. If this was Ubuntu I would be troubleshooting with Pulse Audio, probably, but I know nothing about UT. If anybody here could guide us we might be able to start something.

@trwidick A bug report was opened in Github/Ubiport in August 20th. It seems like nobody touched this issue since then. I have been using a wireless headset to go around the loud speaker problem for calls but that is not a solution to the problem since the mic volume is low for everything that uses the microphone. Here it is the link to the bug report in github: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1808

It has been several month since me and my son installed UT on my used GP3aXL. We used “Bonito” instead of “Sargo”. I don’t remember the second build (?) we used, but it was not a big deal. It took us only two tries to get it right. Sorry I can not be clearer about this.
Well… this is how it is going so far:

Battery live: good enough. A charge takes care of the day.
Charging: I’ve noticed It takes less time to fully charge when using my iPhone’s charger cube than when I use a regular charger. Maybe I need to buy a charger for Google Pixel.
Networking: No issues.
Bluetooth: It pairs with everything Android based (Apple is a different story as you should know), including my car’s bluetooth system (Chevy Traverse).
Camera: No issues. I’ve recently attended a light show (at night) and took several photos. I was pleased. Also I’ve taken pictures in my yard for testing and I was satisfied. At the beginning I did not know how to handle the camera and I thought there was a problem with the application. It’s fine.
Video Recording: The image quality is good. The sound is very low.
Sound Recording: It works but sound is very low.
Contacts: I was able to sync all my contacts from a vcf file downloaded from iCloud, transferred to my Pixel and pulled from the Contacts app.
Clock: Alarm clock working fine.
Music and Media Players apps working fine.
I’ve been using other apps but I don’t think it is relevant information at this point.
Carrier: H2O (AT&)
Calls: Regular phone calls are great. Unable to use speaker phone since my voice is almost inaudible to the other end. Someone described it like a very low and robot like voice.
MMS and SMS: For MMS is confusing since I can send messages with pictures but I can not receive replies to those messages on the Pixel. They come to my iPhone instead. Same for SMS but at the same time I have to say that I can receive text messages from services for authentication on the Pixel, but if it is a personal thing I can not receive the text reply on my Pixel. It would go to the iPhone instead. The iPhone is connected to my WIFI network and not to any carrier at the moment. It used to be Verizon but I canceled the service a week ago. Currently working around this MMS issue by using TELEports and mywebtelegram.
Internet Browsing: No issues with connection thru the carrier of my WIFI network. Morph is doing well. There’s some shaking on it when in YouTube. Also there’s some picture scaling problems when placed horizontally. Same for videos on Vimeo.

@albator Hi David. Are you in Canada or USA? I am in USA and I'm having problems receiving MMS. I can send/receive SMS. I can send but not receive MMS. My network is H2O (AT&T). The fields for APN are not enough to place all the settings information I get from H2O's website. Those field are practically the same for Telus, so I am confused since you could not possibly feed all that info in UT but MMS is working for you. It's weird.

@lakotaubp Thanks!

@zlamalp Thanks! After a short while playing with it I noticed what you're telling me. I am afraid your guess is correct. Maybe there is some limitations in UT's Camera. It would be useful to read from somebody who knows for sure.

@zlamalp Hi, I just installed UT on my pixel 3a XL and I am having issues with the camera being out of focus. Any suggestions from you or anybodie else here? Is there anything I can do to solve this problem on the phone?
