Like OTA-8, OTA-9 is mainly a stability improvement release. We are continuing our progress towards incorporation of upstream technologies into Ubuntu Touch, such as Canonical's Mir 1.x and Jolla's qtcontacts-sqlite. This work will multiply our effectiveness, allowing us to focus less on fundamentals and more on innovation. That doesn't mean you won't be seeing some needed changes, though! You can find a full changelog for this release in the changelog section below.
A refreshed look Michele Castellazzi merged the work that was done by the Ubuntu Artwork Team between the last release of Ubuntu for Devices and the project being dropped by Canonical. This offers us a trove of new and updated symbols and folder icons, giving a better feeling of cohesion throughout the system.
Nexus 5 camera fixes Rúben Carneiro has fixed one of the most complained-about issues affecting the Nexus 5: the viewfinder freezing after taking a picture. The ability to record video was also fixed by the same commit, but switching between still image and video modes is a bit unreliable and may require switching away from the camera app.
Quiet improvements: the QQC2 Suru Style The QQC2 Suru Style is an important project that doesn't get very much publicity. It is a Qt Quick Controls 2 style that follows the Ubuntu Touch design guidelines. This allows developers to use the freely available controls in their QML applications and easily port between different Qt platforms with automatic style changes to suit each. This release includes fixes for the style, including using the system scaling settings, better detection of the system dark theme, and a new “Busy” indicator. A non-exhaustive comparison of some of the available QQC2 styles can be found in this image gallery.
