I tried it this morning and it suddenly worked. That's the pattern with this problem, I'll try it a few times and it won't do anything, then wait a couple of days and it'll be OK. The reason I bring up the GFW is that I tried several times when I was travelling around Europe, using crappy hostel wifi, and suddenly it worked much better. I don't know if all that proves it isn't bug #1378678, but it doesn't sound like the same problem.
Anyway, my point is not to make downloads suddenly work. My point is that the system doesn't give me any insight into what's going wrong. I can't see the failing URLs, so I can't judge if they're inside or outside China. The system doesn't seem to notice that the attempted download isn't working. And I don't have any alternative means of getting the data onto the phone. Networks suck sometimes, users understand and accept that. But the system should know how to cope anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522261 Title: App Updates rarely download in China To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1522261/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
