OS: Ubuntu Touch OTA-4
Hi everyone,
I am enjoying my Volla Phone 22 as my daily and would like to share some concerns or probably bugs that I have discovered in around 2 months of use. Moderator, please move this post accordingly if it's in the wrong place. I was told on UBPorts that bugs should be reported on this forum.
Here are some discovered issues:
- There are stutters during animation that weren't there upon first installation of Ubuntu Touch (UT). Compared to the Pixel 3a with UT, the Volla Phone 22 was around 3x faster when navigating and everything was smoother. As apps get installed the phone began to get animation stutters, especially when opening the app drawer and the menu. This is arguably the biggest difference between the two, but the Pixel 3a is a 100% UT-approved device.
- Waydroid would hang when UT browsers are active. This happens with either Morph or Sapot. When either is shut down, Waydroid would instantly function much more quickly.
- Waydroid still has some animation stutters but it's getting better after every update. Thanks for the all the work, by the way.
- When playing a video on Waydroid and the screen turns off, the sound would disappear. I just noticed this yesterday as it's the first time I watched a longer video on Waydroid.
- I would hear some cracking sound on notifications and playback both in UT and Waydroid. It's not a big deal but it can be heard quite easily in a quiet room.
I love the phone and that's why I use it daily. Even with the concerns above, the Volla Phone 22 has replaced my Pixel 3a as my daily. Cheers.
