Hello,
My Pure has crashed daily since this update yet when I connect to the Center it doesn’t show any evidence of this. The phone will freeze on a particular time and only restarting it will get it to behave properly. Are there any steps I should take to remedy this?
@skilletsauce I think, in this case, our team would like to see the logs. Would you be able to transmit them to us via Mudita Center? This way, our team can take a look if the issue is Mudita Center or Pure. They can use the logs to hopefully recreate the issue & try to solve it.
The Center shows no sign of the crashes therefore I don’t know how I would show the logs. Is there another way to trigger the crash report so that I can send the logs?
Like others here, I’ve also been getting daily crashes (freezes) since this update, requiring battery-removal to rectify. I have sent logs from mudita center, but I have no idea how to tell if center has successfully detected the crash or not, so am hoping the logs are actually useful.
The phone now often does not get its time automatically from the network. I wonder if this is related or coincidence. When the crashes started I tried factory-resetting the phone, but it gave no improvement.
The phone freezes approximately every 2 hours, making it effectively unusable until the next update. Is it possible to roll-back an OS update? Or maybe devs could re-release 1.7.0 labelled as 1.7.2?
Sadly my phone has also tranformed in to an unstable, unusable brick so I had to take the sim out and put it in to an another device. It really would be nice if there were some way to dial back the OS until things get sorted that way the phone could still be of service.
@skilletsauce Our team is aware of these issues. I have asked when we should expect a follow-up update. Once I know, I will share it with the community.
I have 4 sim cards now of all mobile operators working in Egypt, and I have the pepple grey pure.
how can I participate in testing the VOLTE and signal quality so the phone can be usable in Egypt ?
@Amr_Osman Unfortunately, we don’t know if that will happen. The original Mudita Pure was not certified for the Egyptian telecoms, so since we do not have it, it may be not be able to do it. Sorry about that.
Anyway I did test all sim cards for extended periods of time, the result is
Vodafone (LTE) works and switches to 3g back and forth but generally works ok and I have found no signal drops
Orange works OK but signal sometimes drops and only 3G and some times 4G
Etisalat : frequent drops (3g only)
WE: very frequent drops (3g only)
the only problem is that even after changing the the USSD codes to english most of the time it wont work , the only one that worked is Vodafone *100# and it did show the time and date
other codes succeed but never give reply
I hope that helps
NB: battery life is about 5 days of standby ( setting on desk doing nothing)
update: LTE now works also with orange and USSD codes work
but I noticed it switches to 3G to do that and some times it fails due to long time it takes to find network, I think enbaling VOLTE with Orange and Vodafone Egypt will make it work !
