Updates stuck on stable channel. - Cree - 10-02-2020

This is probably my most frustrating experience yet!
For some reason after an update my phone ended up on the stable channel. It can no longer revert and will not allow me to update to further dev builds
It says build 8 but i know there's at least a 229 dev

The numbering of stable and develoment channels is completely unrelated, and since stable was just updated you're not too far behind.

I'd suggest, installing UT Tweak Tool (UTTT), and clearing the setting app's cache and reopening the settings. I bet that'll fix the issues. Channel switching can be a bit glitchy.

Cleared the cache. Still doesnt want to switch back to dev. I customized this image a fair bit so i really dont want to reflash it. Settings just freezes everytime i open channels and select dev. Then it reverts to stable. It seems "stable" build 8 just wont allow you to go to dev. What nonsense is this, i dont want to wait for a future stable 9 to get back on dev.

Okay, after 50+ attempts, it looks like this finally resolved itself. Nothing i did differently, and nothing im aware i did to fix it. It just finally did what i wanted it to. I suspect there may have been some background process running that was interfering with it that finally terminated and allowed it to work again. Thats my best guess.

I am typically on Dev as well, but I updated to 221, and noticed my battery life went from about 2 1/2 hours to 8 hours  Big Grin

Yes! Battery life does seem much better! Not quite where its at with Manjaro, but significantly better than UT was a few weeks ago.


RE: Updates stuck on stable channel. - Giiba - 10-04-2020

Well the customization is your trouble. The UT system is readonly, and any moifications come with the risk of breaking OTA updates. Like seems to have happened.

I would bt that's the problem with the channel setting, it doesn't know which you are using so always reverts to displaying the default option.
