>VoLTE has been enabled for Poco X3. In TELEports there is now a block and unblock facility. Some important changes have been made towards verifying Wi-Fi connections. Numtian is the MMS daemon and it has seen some modifications. Ofono has been tweaked to handle switching from IPV4 to IPV6 more effectively. QtMir has been refined.

Do we need bigger communities so we’re more noticeable to the news outlets like when !technology@lemmy.world eventually hits 100k? Or when interesting stories originate from here?

>Marius announced that VoLTE is now working satisfactorily for both Mediatek and Qualcomm. The modifications are already in the image for both Focal and Noble. With that said in order to use them the porter for each device must do the work on that and for Qualcomm the only device we have at the moment is the Fairphone 5. On the Mediatek side, Volla from 22 up are functional. Marius and Alfred have been running it as a daily driver for awhile and have found no major problems.

>This is not just voice it is also SMS over VoLTE. AppLee reported some issues with MMS but Marius was surprised that MMS would work at all because it is a different type of protocol. Alfred attempted to test that out live but like most live attempts it didn’t work. Alfred also placed a call though and that did work.

>In yet more big news, Marius has now succeeded in getting an eSIM to work. At the moment it functions only in command line but he is working on a UI for it. The fix used the Lpac library. A big shout out to the developers of that because it contains resources which we have used for lots of different things.

>Marius confirmed to a questioner that both VoLTE and eSIM will have entries in Settings.

>Halium 12 devices upgrade

>Alagiralagir had a couple of questions. The first was to ask why all devices can’t be upgraded to Halium 12 so that they can take advantage of VoLTE? Alfred is the porter of the Pixel 3a but he expressed his view that the device has outlived its usefulness. It runs on Halium 9. It is not worth the effort of taking it further and there is not even a guarantee that Halium 12 would unlock VoLTE. There are times when the only way forward is to get a more modern phone and this is one of those times.

>The Pixel 3a is not supported in Austria anymore, even if it is running the original Android. Time to let it go.

>If we are going to make more use of Mastodon and Matrix we need volunteers to take care of that.

>Fluﬀychat is still broken and we are waiting for the Mir updates which it needs, in order for Flutter to be compatible.

>We still have groups on Matrix but they are not very much used. A move from telegram could be possible once we have a properly working Matrix client but even then we would need bridging from telegram and with so many groups that would only be practical for a few.

>Well apart from a problem with MMS, VoLTE is working pretty well with Mediatek devices. On Qualcomm we are still making progress but not there yet. We need some testing of the beta version for Qualcomm, preferably with feedback from across the world because a standard is very loose and the exact situation is very variable.

>In the USA and India 2G and 3G has already been shut down. It will be great to get UT working properly again in those markets.

>Samsung make their phones almost impossible to work with. The same applies to Xiaomi and their locked boot loaders.

The groundwork made in the apps, frontends, tools and instances is finally paying off. The masses are noticing the value!

They have great documentaries, movies and tv series such as North of North.

The more that people use their services the more funding they can can receive from the federal government to expand their programming lineup.

I want to avoid Spotify and Apple Music.

I have checked out Sound Cloud and they do have the artists I’m interested in but are they more ethical than the above services?

I could also buy cds as a last resort.

This is good growth for such a smaller lesser known fedi project that replaces Facebook.
