Canonical has just released a new Ubuntu Touch image, based on Ubuntu 14.04, just a couple of days after the previous update.

A new Ubuntu Touch trusty image has been made available, either as a download or through the normal OTA updates.

Highlights of the Ubuntu Touch latest update:

• The indicators tab order is now matching; • A test is now in place to ensure that developers can catch more regressions on that side; • Unity8 is no longer crashing when shutting down the phone, making the following reboot really, really slow; • The webapps are now opening the right urls on links; • The ubuntu-keyboard is no longer making an annoying noise during its use; • A workaround based on Tiago's first inspection has been added to fix the case when there was no GSM connection;

“We will restart kicking an image for the real GSM fix as soon as the package is published and run all the autopilot tests again (but this takes some hours). We plan to promote that one as well tomorrow morning if the test results are good. The PhoneFundation team together with QA are going to write tests to cover the whole GSM area,” said Canonica's Didier Roche.
