You can install Termux on any Android Tablet and run a full blown Linux desktop there. It's relatively easy to setup and works very well.
That's at least my replacement until something comparable is reached in Linux OS world.
The Volla tablet should get support on UT soon, at least I hope so and look forward to it.
My Volla Phone 22 (no replaced display) performs very laggy.
Even with no app open, fading in/out the sidebar or the app drawer is laggy. Also just scrolling up/down the settings menu.
The original Volla Phone performs way smoother here.
What could be the reason for that?
I switched channels, but that didn't change anything.
Any help appreciated...
I had quite a simiilar problem with my Quintus. I'm on stable channel.
For me the solution was switching channel to RC, update there and switch back.
Maybe this helps...
@arubislander No I don't think it's outdated. Probably it's just luck that it works on the Quintus as an unsupported device...
I was just hoping, it's a simple to solve config issue.
But searching the net shows, that hardly anyone solved this due to it probably is a running environment issue and thus simply unsupported, as the list says.
Do you mean this list?
Since Waydroid runs on the Quintus, which also is not on the list I was hoping this issue might be a simple one to resolve.
Then the X23 is the only Volla Phone Waydroid doesn't run on.
I'll have to wait then for further support of Halium versions...
Thanks!
Volla Phone X23 (20.04 OTA-8 Stable)
I installed Waydroid with the Waydroid Helper App.
When I try to launch Waydroid, I see the Waydroid icon and a circle beneath it spinning forever.
LogViewer says:
Failed to get service waydroidplatform, trying again...
What can I do about that?
Volla Phone Quintus (20.04 OTA-8 Stable)
No issues so far, seems to work fine!
Can I install Waydroid on the Volla Tablet with the Helper app?
Due to the warning shown I wanted to previously ask if there are experiences, yet?
Thanks!
I had this behavior already in OTA-7.
I don't remember, when this started, it wasn't always this way.
I also can fix this only by booting while the charger is plugged in.
Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
Good to know, there's no issue with the battery.
@Moem Oh ok, thanks! Then I'll just wait until this is fixed
For some days now, in the status bar I have instead of the battery icon some icon I'm not sure what it is supposed to mean.
I also don't get the percentage (switching this on/off doesn't help) neither when charging nor when discharging.
BUT: when I open the battery settings, I get a percentage showing how much the battery is charged (but I don't get the statistics chart).
Please see attached screenshots:
Is my battery defective?
Thanks for your answers!
I am checking over and over again and I have been connected to different Wifis in between in which everthing else works. Should therefore not be an network issue from my side...
I guess I'll try switching channels later on... Hope that helps.
I don't dare reinstalling with the installer since almost every time I tried to flash a device with it, that failed...
My Volla X23 (20.04 stable OTA-7) still does not get an update to OTA-8. Searching results in "software is up to date".
But the update has been released for the X23, yet, hasn't it?
What should I do to retrieve the update?
I am using Waydroid and Waydroid Freezr quite a lot. I just got aware that a hint on the Waydroid Freezr store page says:
"UT camera may not work when Waydroid is freezed".
I'll observe that on my device and come back then.
Maybe this is also a hint for others having this issue.
@Moem said in Camera stays black - possible to restart (via terminal)?:
@jojumaxx This sounds like the problem I've been having. Please check out my bug report. And if you feel it's the same problem please comment and add your experience!
https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/apps/lomiri-camera-app/-/issues/210Sorry, I've only ever been able to fix it by rebooting. Usually it takes a cold boot.
Sorry for answering late. Yes, that sounds similar.
Yet I suspect that my camera always works once but not a second time.
But a normel reboot suffices for me, a cold reboot is not necessary in my case.
And I always have the same behaviour (complete black screen while switching between apps and closing the camera app is possible). I don't experience the other described scenarios.
I don't have a Gitlab account therefore I haven't commented on this, yet.
VP Quintus OTA-8
Every now and then the camera app does not come up and the screen stays black. I haven't figured out exactly yet, when that happens. To be able to use the camera again I have to reboot the phone.
That is not an OTA-8 thing, I had this also on OTA-7.
My question now is: Is there some command like
sudo systemctl restart camservice
or similar to restart the camera which avoids a reboot?
