I'm 99% sure that we won't have an OTA-15 update. There are a lot of evidences. There is no OTA-15 milestone on Launchpad, the new silos on Bileto are not builded for Vivid (our current base system) anymore, just for Xenial and Zesty. Updating to Xenial/Zesty from Vivid is not possible via an OTA update, because the difference is too big. so maybe a reflash could be a solution, but it wouldn't be an ideal one. There's no phone, which can run a Xenial base system. the QA testers use the tablet for every test. So I think Canonical is thinking about the future of the phone platform and it forbade its employees to talk about the future of the platform. So I think there's a very big chance that they will kill the platform completely (worst case scenerio) or they will start to sale new phones with Xenial base and Snaps in the future, but not this year. And it would mean the end of the support to all previous devices. I think this is the reason why they didn't start to sale the Meizu MX6 phones as well...

It's going through now. As for known good state these sort of issues begin to crop up monthly. The OTA always kicked my phone back into line. I suggest OTA15 isn't happening because any attempt anyone has made to ask when it is coming has been deflected. There is no mention of it on launchpad and people just keep referring to big changes ahead and it being pointless investing time in a system that is being retired shortly. If it is happening someone please provide a timescale or at least confirmation. Not being given any information at all leads to great frustration. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
