Ubuntu Touch with OTA updates

[patrickjquinn]

Maybe I don't understand how these updates are supposed to work. How did we go from a phone that worked to a useless paperweight that we cant even text with? Four updates in a row now SMS does not show up in the text threads

Its called a regression and it's very common in software development, especially software with such a high level of complexity. Changing one dependancy to improve something or fix something pertaining to that dependancy can have unintended consequences for the thing that it was dependant on, in this case the messages app.

If you want stability, switch back to stable. If you want a bleeding edge device that has a high chance of becoming a useless paperweight, stick with dev. 

Sorry to be blunt and potentially obvious but that just the situation.
