Re: bq Aquaris E4.5 Update ?

One thing worth mentioning:

The devel-proposed channel doesn't contain the bq customizations. That
means if you're still using the default ringtone for calls and
messages ("Aquaris") your phone won't ring until you change that
because the setting still points to the non existing file. Also you'll
lose the today and nearby scope as long as those aren't in the store.
