Feedback for v1.16

Namaste Manoj,
nope.
We own 2 Gigaset GS290 with /e/-OS and we do not face issues with sending SMS yet.
My device is on v1.16-s the other is on v1.15-s.

We noticed in the past sometimes different behaviour of the phones, especially the second one had once issues during the update via OTA. The second one is approx. 12 month older than my daily driver.

Where do you see ā€œcom.mediaā€¦ keeps stoppingā€ message? Iā€™m hoping to create an issue in gitlab. Currently awaiting access to gitlab.

Hi kirk! When sending SMS, often first message is sent ok, but mostly after second message, a notice appears on top of the messages. Sometimes second message is sent ok, despite of ā€¦ā€œImsApp keeps stoppingā€ notice, but often I get ā€œfailed to send messageā€ notice, that appears under the message with smaller letters, like delivery confirmation. Message is not sent. Some website recommended setting APN to ā€œdefaultā€, but it didnā€™t help. I send SMS commands to remote controlled temperature sensors, and the response comes as SMS message. It used to come within maybe 10 to 15 seconds, now it lasts longer, over one minute. Would all of this be indication of problem at operatorā€™s server, or something like that? Problem just happened to appear after 1.15-s update?

Everything working fine

Hi mok,
My problem might be different to yours . Also Iā€™m not using mediatek. After installing 1.15s (and also 1.16s), on my phone, no SMS sends are possible.
Do I think this is an operator problem? I would guess not, itā€™s no coincidence.

Hi! I encounter the same issue as @Pazu since 1.16 update: I canā€™t control the call volume at all now, whereas I could before 1.16. Even set to the minimum, the volume is so high that itā€™s no longer possible to keep calls discreet, which is rather annoying.

I find that if I restart and then click Resend on the message that was stopped by Mediatek, the message goes.
Which is similar to what someone said earlier that the first text after restarting goes and itā€™s likely that the second message is where the problem returns.

Hello @jalmer ,
Can you confirm me that your bluetooth is working fine ?
Mine is no more working: no device detected by my S10 and my S10 is not detected by other devices. It was working normally in the previous /e/os S release.
I cleared the cache of the bluetooh app but no effect !
Thank you

Dear @Lionel.R I teste right Now a Bluetooth Key Finder Musegear and Bluetooth Speaker and both are working.

Best regards Johannes

I have a FP4. Install of 1.16s was smooth and easy. Only issue I have is if I do a call my speaker sounds loud like a PA-speaker. Settings are on minimum but without effect.

So are mine and that seem to be a general problem.
There seem to be an Github issue already according to some post above.

Hello all.
Is there a reason why my S9+ (1.15 dev) has not received an ā€œupdate readyā€ notification for 1.16 ? (as I see that 1.17 is arriving ā€¦ Iā€™m a bit puzzled)
Thanks.

Maybe because your device is still running on Android 10 (Q)?

There would be a reason if you would still be on Android 10 (Q) ā€¦ please refer to [HOWTO] Give complete /e/OS version info easily for support, answers, comparison etc.

There are /e/OS 1.16 dev builds for your device based on Android 11 (R) and Android 13 (T) currently, 1.15 seems to have been the last Android 10 (Q) build according to https://images.ecloud.global/dev/star2lte/.
It is likely that only the T builds will continue to be built, as update support for multiple basic Android versions on a device was dropped a while ago.
