Even if the OTA goes live, I'm not sure how you might get it on a phone if you can't interact with it.
You have two choices: - update the phone manually from an attached ubuntu desktop - Use the handset's factory reset proceedure. The first is well covered by our developer documentation. Simply reflashing to the current image with --wipe will reset the brightness to a sensible value (and wipe all your other data) The second would be hold down 'volup' + power. When the machine starts rebooting (~10 sec) a red led lights, and you should release just the power button. You will eventually be presented with a menu. follow the on-screen instructions to select recovery. When the ubuntu logo appears, use 'Volup' again to get a menu of options. One of which is 'factory reset'. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-power in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436538 Title: brigtness slider should not allow total darkness Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products: Fix Released Status in indicator-power package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: bq aquaris 4.5, Utopic Unicorn 20150312-002053: slider allows to minimize the brightess to the point of not seeing at all. Even if you manage to reboot (you don't see the confirmation dialogue) you still have completly dark display which effectively "bricks" the phone (no battery removal) unless you are patient enought to blindly try and hit long time enough to increase the brigtness again.
