UBports has released version 24.04-1.3 of the Ubuntu Touch operating system. This update serves as a maintenance patch for the 24.04-1.x series. The release targets specific devices including the Fairphone 3, Fairphone 3+, Fairphone 4, Fairphone 5, OnePlus Nord N10 5G, and the Volla Tablet.
Update resolves shutdown bugs and scaling issues on supported devices
The update introduces improved handling of desktop applications. Users can now launch X11 apps outside of the Lomiri interface. The patch also includes fixes for launching GTK4 apps. Additionally, the system now manages docks with input devices like NexDock more effectively.
Several bug fixes address stability and media playback issues. The update resolves a shutdown hanging bug that affected some devices. It also fixes the playback of AMR voice messages sent via MMS. Scaling factor errors in applications with embedded webviews or Qt auto scaling have been corrected.
UBports has mentioned that version 24.04-2.0 is an upcoming release. This future update will feature an updated web browser. The current 24.04-1.3 release focuses on stability and application compatibility rather than new features.
UBports has not confirmed the launch window for version 24.04-2.0. The organization continues to maintain the 24.04-1.x series with targeted fixes for supported hardware.
