I have noticed the same for Teleports on Pixel 3A r570. I have not checked the other apps.

@lakotaubp Nice. That works well. Thanks.

I have been using the 3a for about a month now and it is excellent. The one issue I have, and apologies if this is written else where as I couldn't find anything in a search, is that the camera only appears to work well up to about 1m. The pictures on images within a metre are really clear, but anything beyond that are slightly out of focus and not usable. Anyone else experience this? Suggestions greatly appreciated.

@lakotaubp Thanks for everyone's help and patience.

@lakotaubp Hanging head in shame....RTFM. I just noticed that on the second screen it says reboot to recovery mode. Installing now.

@lakotaubp Sorry I was away and could not reply as I didn't have my login details on the road. Still no success. I tried all the suggestions on that link too. I have access to a windows and Mac machine now so will give those a try. The process of loading 9.0 seems fine and no errors, but the installer just hangs at the format user space stage. I left it for well over an hour so assume that there is an issue. I have read on other forums that I might need to format the partitions with ext4, but not sure how to do that yet. I will get there I hope. Meanwhile, my trusty N5 is here.

Disabled wipe user data this time, hence the message, but nothing

@saveurlinux I have tried all of those. Getting some error messages in the terminal using the deb version of the installer but it is still not getting anyway. With the snap version it appears to flash a few files to the 3a, but then doesn't do much. Odd.

@ieuserie this is quite an old thread, but only just getting to a 3a. I have mnanaged to get everything set up and the installer appears to flash and install UB Ports, but it sits saying cleaning up and formatting user data partition for ever and never seems to complete. Same after 3 or 4 goes.

Ideas? Am I not waiting enough?

@unisuperbox I mirror everything said here. I totally understand. You put your heart and soul into something 24/7. There is sometimes only one outcome. Please rest up and do what is best for you. The community you have helped build will continue and reflect what you have made of it, though will be diminished without you.

@lsitongia I think, as you say, OTAs are only really stable versions. The next one, later this week, is OTA 20, but if you are on dev, you probably already have most of it. That is my understanding.

@lt-dillinger The original UB Ports release, I think, had motherboard v1.1 which was 2GB RAM and 16GB storage. The Beta version and Mobian is v1.2 with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage. There are a few other minor hardware fixes too I think.

I can understand the nature of this comment, but for me it was never about having a daily driver, at least not in the short run, but in supporting an excellent community of individuals. Pre Ubuntu days, I used Suse and probably paid more in fees by each new addition than if I had purchased a windows license, but it was not about the money as such, but the open source community and helping them as I could. I have never been a developer, though have tried a few times, and the only way I can help out is by purchasing stuff and promoting the community at every opportunity. I have both a Braveheart and UB Ports PP and neither are usable, though the BH currently have Mobian on it to see how it is going. My DD is a Nexus 5 which works perfectly. Before that I used a BQ 4.5 for a number of years. For the money I have spent on these I could have bought a proprietary phone and had done with it, but what would be the point?

As was said, part of this process is to help out as it is a small but growing community. My next phase (hopefully my students are reading this) is for my FE computing students to get involved. We have a PP on order and they are keen to solve (with community assistance) some of the outstanding problems on the PP and gain useful experience in the process.

Is there any ETA on when the Pinephone will be added to the installer?

Marius earlier this week hinted that some people are less than supportive in the the wider Linux community about the work that he and others do in open source, at least that was my reading. I just wanted to say that I REALLY appreciate what you (the wider UB Ports family) have done for us that want a Linux phone. I really enjoy the Q & As (currently watching 94 late), mainly because I see a range of people across the world that really enjoy each other's company and working on a project that they are proud of. They are always fun to watch. I wish I could get more involved and help. I do little more than buy and use the phones and run the software, but nothing make me happier than using a Ubuntu phone.
So, please keep doing what you are doing, and I for one appreciate all that you do.

Dalton, sorry to be a pedant, but you said welcome to Q & A 94, February 13th 2020.

@alexjoverton Same on my BQ 4.5 and Nexus 5. On my Nexus, I used the UT Tweak app to reset the cache etc, but had to then reinstall my IMAP account, but it is working again. I haven't done the same on my BQ as it is a backup phone, but Dekko is just a white page and no more.

@applee I have to agree. I really enjoy the shows and felt bad that the team needed to justify themselves for all the excellent work they are doing with limited resources and time.

I get the same and do the same process, though not as frequently as you indicate.

One for the Issues page on Gitlab? Assuming it is not already there.

@pault bug reports are over here I think: https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/pinephone/-/issues
