A lot of issues with Volla Phone X and Ubuntu Touch

I am using Volla Phone X with Ubuntu Touch for half a year and in that time I've created/confirmed multiple bug reports, and the latest one does not even allow me to upgrade to the latest OTA-23:
FIXED at some point in time, upgraded to Focal
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1999

FIXED in OTA-23 There's issue with Bluetooth - it is automatically enabled on boot, and switching it off vie GUI does not work (it switches back on in 30s):
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1945

FIXED in OTA-23 WiFI cannot be turned off via GUI, only via command line, and even that some times breaks it completely without ability to turn it on without reboot:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1946

FIXED in Focal Automatic brightness control does not work:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1957

FIXED in Focal
Something in audio system is spamming longs every second, I am afraid that might shorten lifetime of internal memory (flash) :
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1956

Indicators/time are hidden under camera notch:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1820

FIXED in Focal
Battery indicator works strangely:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1975

Headphone jack is buggy:
https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/2019

HDR imaging does not work:
https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/ ... issues/181

Reboot does not work in Focal:
https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/ ... /issues/84

Maybe there's more issues I don't recall, but that's enough for now...

It would be really cool that Volla team would:

Re: A lot of issues with Volla Phone X and Ubuntu Touch

Also experiencing plenty of issues on the Volla phone X with Ubuntu touch. I can't have Rndis working to tether internet via cable. Can't update also, but before that I couldn't change from stable channel to RC release Candidate or Dev. Can't have VPN working.
Finally today I saved my data and tried to use "erase and reinitialise" in the settings section. It doesn't work. This one made me angry. It didn't fail graciously.
I'm downloading the ubports installer to reinstall. Is there another way to have a clean install ?
Edit: yes, a few ones. Still, I bricked it. adb is out of reach and the phone doesn't boot into UT.

I would suggest go ask about this in official UBPorts forums, or write to Volla directly.

Hi,
I received back my Volla22 from service because I was not able to install UT. Now the dual boot works, but I'm facing many issues with UT.
I didn't understand if it took really the change from 'Stable' to 'Release Candidate'; the pohne dowloaded something but i don't know how to go on with update, avoiding to do a 'disaster'.
i mean, after the download and the indication to Install and reboot the phone shows (but I don't know how to proceed/does mean):
Recovery
Apply Update
Apply from ADB

What does ADB stay for? I didn't find anything in the manual or here the forum...

ADB is command line utility you run on your computer, to access phone shell, upload/download files and more.

Consider asking https://forums.ubports.com/category/37/support for help.
