    • RE: Ubuntu Touch Q&A 99 This Saturday 24th April At 19:00 UTC

      On the PinePhone there are 4 update channels, the 3 usual plus the kernelupgrade channel.

      • Which channel has the latest development packages? I'm especially interested in the kernel and ofono upgrades that were talked about in Q&A 98 on 10 April which will provide a more stable cellular modem connection.

      • Where can we see package (kernel,ofono) changes as there is little activity in gitlab?

      Thanks to all of the UBports contributors.

    • RE: SMS not receive

      @yannesc This is probably RCS. I had this issue also.

      I disabled the Chat Features in the stock Android Messaging App.

    • RE: SMS and call audio not working

      I have a Pixel 3a which I was running on the Development Channel. After creating the 2 APN's 1 for internet and 1 for MMS, I was able to send/receive SMS/MMS/Calls & data via LTE worked. I think that was on version 240, and it ran pretty stable for a few days. After updating to version 244 & then 246, I was unable to receive SMS/MMS although I could send SMS (I didn't tryp MMS). I was also only able to get about 18 hours of use with light to moderate use (mostly internet browsing and some texting, minimal calls).

      I've since gone back to Android as I need my phone to work.

      I'm in the U.S. using StraightTalk on AT&T.

      I'm willing to re-install UBports to assist with troubleshooting.

    • RE: Cant install ubuntu touch

      @hexis

      That is where Jumpdrive comes in.

      • Burn the jump drive image to an SD card.
      • Put it in your Pinephone and boot the phone.
      • Connect the Pinephone to your computer via USB.
      • Your computer should now show 2 external drives. - One is the SD card, and the other is the internal eMMC.
      • Burn the Ubuntu Touch image onto the internal eMMC using Etcher or dd.
      • Disconnect the PinePhone from your computer.
      • Power off the Pinephone.
      • Remove the SD card that has Jumpdrive on it.
      • Power on your Pinephone
      • Enjoy Ubuntu Touch.

    • Ghostcloud on PinePhone

      @fredldotme Is there a way to install version 0.9.6 (which doesn't depend on the Online Accounts feature) and manually create the necessary credential files so we can get GhostCloud working on PinePhone? It would really be nice to have access to my files, contacts, and calendar on my Nextcloud server.

      Thanks.

      @cliffcoggin

      You should open a bug report here .

      Is your WiFi access point using 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz? I see 1 issue where Dalton states that the Nexus 5 has some issue with 5 GHz - although that bug report is about connecting not auto-connect.

    • RE: Wrong network selected

      @cliffcoggin please correct me if i have gotten the details wrong.

      The phone has been connected to your WiFi access point. You have entered and saved the WiFi access point's password in the phone.

      Now, on occasion (1 time out of 10 of leaving and returning to the WiFi access point's coverage range) the phone does not auto-connect to your WiFi access point.

      On the occasions when the phone doesn't auto-connect to your WiFi access point, the neighbor's access point as well as your access point are listed in the available access points when the WiFi menu is opened. To connect to your WiFi access point, you just select it from the WiFi menu and the phone connects.

      Is this what is happening?

      @cliffcoggin

      Do you have a password set on your WiFi access point?

      If you disable WiFi on the phone and then re-enable it, when you force the reconnect to it do you have to enter the password?

      It seems odd to me that your phone would prefer to connect to a WiFi access point you have never connected to over your own that you have connected to.

      @hexis

      I'm still assuming you have the Original generation Pinephone.

      The Pinephone is not like the Android phones and does NOT use the installer. Check the info here: https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/pinephone

      Is this an original generation Pinephone or the Pinephone Pro?

      There is no Ubuntu Touch for the Pinephone Pro.

      If this is the Original Generation Pinephone, you will need to use Etcher or dd to write the Ubuntu Touch image to the SD card. - You don't elaborate how you "put Ubuntu Touch on a SD card".

      There is no MTP mode (which allows you to see the Pinephone as a USB storage device) built into the Pinephone. - There is a utility called Jumpdrive that can provide this ability. Jumpdrive has to be written to an SD card with Etcher or dd.

      There is also Tow-Boot, but that is another topic that would not be needed for the Original Generation Pinephone and Ubuntu Touch.

    • RE: No cellular internet

      @csanderson0313

      Like @MonCon I don't know much about setting up and using a VPN.

      For troubleshooting, I always start simple and build on it to find the layer that creates the problem. So I would disable the VPN and do some testing on the Stable Channel. Also, you say you have no cellular internet. Do you get an ip address from your carrier? If you get an ip address try pinging google.com . If the ping doesn't work try 8.8.8.8. Then you can see if it's a DNS issue.

      I'm also in the USA, but I'm using MVNO Redpocket on AT&T.

      I'm currently using PostmarketOs on my original generation Pinephone as the Stable Channel has issues with the modem disappearing resulting is missed calls/texts and sometimes the screen wouldn't wake up after leaving the phone sit for some period of time. And, on the Development Channel the modem is not detected by Ubuntu Touch so it's not much of a phone without the modem. - The no modem on the Development Channel could be due to me using Biktorgj's firmware on the modem.
