Ubuntu Touch with OTA updates

[Zweitaktmotor]

Hey guys,

I flashed my Pinephone with with the new UB ports image around 5 days ago, for sure after you posted that from now on it would receive OTA updates.

But I do not see the OTA-12 update coming to my phone. Should I reflash or did I just do something wrong?

Best,
Thomas

Go to the bottom of the screen and click on "Update Settings", then choose the first entry saying "Development". We are now on Update 25.

interestingly enough, i cannot see any "channel" option in the settings-update menu: just "auto download" and "reinstall all apps". How is that? can i solve it?

Same here.

Maybe your installed version is not compatible with OTA ?

Sounds like a daily build and not the OTA enabled "main build"

Looks like I had downloaded form the old link:
https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinephone/

The correct link (in case anyone else needs it) seems to be this one:
https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/ro...stemimage/

OTA-12 is not relevant to the Pinephone since it gets its separate images at least for now. In fact, you can say that the Pinephone has been in OTA-12 since the beginning.

@Luke From the recent images, the channel is set to Stable and it seems that there are no updates on this channel. I switched to Development and was able to update successfully. This is the usual way on other UT devices so I think it's fine.
Is this the way moving forward? Perhaps it's worth updating the first post?

Just did update #30 but wanted to find out what had changed.

Going back to Luke's initial post and clicking  here 

I see that update #26 on that link was only released today, but there were no recent changes recorded.

I changed the update channel as advised later in this thread, but what is the related web site, please?

Hi,
I was trying to give ub-ports a shot on my BH pinephone and ran into an issue with flashing. I tried to flash the most recent image, #26 at the time, to emmc using etcher and was successful. Though the boot hangs on the ub-ports loading screen. So I've tried older releases and still run into the same issue. Are you able to flash to emmc with the jump drive?
