Hi,
Actually I retried downloading with 4G and it worked...
Battery looks fine, many days without charging ( android 9 ) but I don't use it.

@AppLee

Hi,
I think you are right, I didn't managed to download a 600 MB file...
I will retry few things but as you say maybe the modem is dead...

Sorry for the late answer.

@arubislander
Thanks for answer,
Of course I have my other phone under UT still working with the same Sim.
Sure there is a problem with the modem.bin
in partition a and b to do cause I done something wrong first, or the phone had never work properly but can't know that now.

Thanks

Hi,
My pixel 3a drop the call after 3 or 4 rings or after 8 secondes maximum in a conversation.
Everything else works, MMS, internet...

I started with the right android version and the installation works perfectly with the installer.

I revert back to Android stock ROM to check and it's exactly the same.

I have the feeling that I mess up with the first downgrade to android 9 cause I tried with TWRP and made something wrong ( maybe with slot A/B ) and the phone didn't start at all, I finally done it very easily with Android flash tool through Chrome.
Now the installation of Ubuntu touch (with installer) and the android 9 works well ( done many time...) but same probleme.

In fastboot mode ( with android 9 ) I tried many command to check few things.
I manage to change the slot to boot it in A or B for example, but if I want to boot with TWRP in order to flash the recovery to install everything on both slot, I have the return command (bootloader) boot.img missing Cmdline or Osversion when I try to do fastboot boot twrp.img.

I know that it's nearly not related to UT but I didn't find any tips on XDA and there is more active users here with 3a.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm not an expert of porting but maybe the device is a bit too low of specs.
I have a Galaxy tab 4 and it's also too low (1Go) of RAM.

Good luck!

Hi,
If the Hardware abstraction layer (Halium)was the problems , the android version should be the problems.
I think it's better to flash a Android 10 again to be sure . When it's installed start it to enable devlopper mode and adb and launch the installer ( bootloader should be still unlocked I guess ).
Be sure to follow the instructions for your device.

Good luick!

@mbjunior
Hi,
I'm not an expert of install, but did you have the right android version before started the installer?
Also sometime it's nice to tried differents cables and usb port...

Good luck!

@hekathegreat said in Best device for UT:

So what devices will be supported in 20.04?

Some devices are ported by the core team develloper (pixel 3a for example ) so it will be a big chance that they do the job to make the devices usable in the future. Some have active porter as well, some porter have done the job and drop the port ( so the devices will stay like it is today ).
I not an expert, but it's UT, if something is doable, anybody can work on it and make it happen!

@hekathegreat
Hello and welcome,
I think you can bet on pixel 3, one plus 5, redmi note 9 ( s, pro...ect name code miatoll ), vollaphone...
They have active porter and not old. Redmi note 7 as well. My Redmi 7 work very well.
Because we will move from 16.04 to 20.04 not all the devices will be maintained.
Check what feature are essential for you, cause some devices have missing feature.

Hi, I'm not sûre but you have to check that the phone is unlockable because you have to unlock the bootloader as a first step. I remember some network provider sale some phone and they are locked.

I can be happy to pay every month for the OS if it's necessary, but then this OS will be only for "rich people" or people living in rich country. It will also avoid newcomer to try it.

Even if I'm more than happy with UT, if it's not free how will we explain to user that "x" app isn't available and "y" app is buggy?

This thread and https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7368/community-ubports-its-future/6 just remind me that I have to give more often when I can!

@embeddedmz
If your APN settings are OK ( and it shouldd cause you recieved SMS ) you should be able to recieve MMS as well, works good in France.

Also I can see on your notification that you don't have SIM insered and cellular network... ( maybe it was just during the screenshot and was on before...).

Hi,
Why don't you use Unav or Pure maps?

Free your data, free your phone!
An alternative is possible!

@peter-gamma
Hi,
If you never flashed your phone before it should be OK with the android came with the phone.
Be sure that you unlocked bootloader before.

@Keneda
I have the same feeling. Last day when I wanted to look the devices pages, I had trouble to get acces.

@messayisto
On some halium 9 devices this probleme was solve since OTA 21 only, first week working for me too on this device.
