    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    TEXStudio is working in Libertine! The generation of sample documents went well. Tested on channel 24.04/daily on Fairphone 4. RAM usage topped at 2.7GB (free -h). Other working things that are often used together with TEXStudio in the same libertine container: inkscape (vector graphics) atril (pdf viewer) thunar (file manager) Other; mousepad (text editor) parole (music) Not working as well out of the box: emacs gedit leafpad (usable, complaining about wayland) Observations xfce software tends to work with libertine. Some windows get a window title bar that I didn't figure out how to get rid of. Some apps in libertine are in bright mode. Maybe there is a way to add dark mode theme to a libertine container. A libertine container can say you need to run dpkg --configure -a as root to fix an installation gone wrong. How to become root in a libertine container is not straight forward. su - not working. su phablet not working. libertine-container-manager exec -i noble -c "/bin/bash" and then fakeroot seems to work.

    @Sentinel Hi All, I'm just now running the install from within the waydroid helper app. Back on the stable OS it shows me that the dowload speed is around 200KB/s, the is about 900MB to download. So yes, a verry slow connection for this app... EJ

    On Fairphone 4 i also have to do a: sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock and according to https://clickable-ut.dev/en/latest/install.html sudo snap connect clickable:ssh-keys and sudo snap connect clickable:etc-gitconfig are needed after installing clickable, too. P.S.: *.click package compilation works

    I misread and thought it said Redmi Note 7 (lavender) which is on the installer. It has slightly different hardware to the Redmi Note 7 pro.... Apologies (full of cold). :disappointed_face:

    @bgriffis said in OnePlus 10 Nord on 24.04-1 (2026-01-17) - Could not fetch the MMS message. Maybe the MMS settings are incorrect or cellular data is off?: Wifi is on it's a well-known problem. The MMS providers are serving MMS in an insecure way, so do so only on their network. The fix is to have a special route for the MMS always going through cellular data. There is this MR waiting to be reviewed. While waiting for this change to get to stable, I have hacked a special route for my provider.

    @hilbert There are no external notifications of messages received for Teleports with Noble. The only way to see if a message is received is to open the app and there the messages received are displayed by contact. The problem is known.

    @ravachol I was able to get it working with Telenor. I had to manually enter APN servers. I have a Xiaomi Poco x3 nfc though, not a fairphone.

    I completely understand the huge impact. It is one of those things engineers call "should have thought about that earlier"... The positive note from this is that at least it has been brought up (again aparently), to be searchable in the forum for others who dwell upon investing in a Fairphone (because older USB3 devices are hard to find).

    @mango as far as I know Dekko2 is the only local client for UT. I don't use it but I tested it and with a few wrinkles (see issue) it seems to work. I don't see why Aol mail should be a problem since it seems to work with Imap/smtp.

    @ma the application was not open in the background as far as I know. I did not configure anything for the app with TweakUT, I left the default value. As far as I remember, when all of this was happening I was connected via wifi. Restart: I stop the phone every day. what I see looks very much like existing issues #179 and #183. BTW whatever your problem is (you never described it), you can turn on debugging after installing dekko, starting it and closing it before setting up ,your account, go to the config directory under ~/.config/dekko2.dekkoproject and turn on debugging according to this procedure.

    @deadthousand You clearly got it boot loader unlocked since you are running UT on it. If it is network locked, and you bought it, you can request to network unlock it. There is also a way to network unlock it by removing a file in the HAL, but that requires hacking skills. See xda-developers for that.

    I don't know the technical details of the app. You can probably log an issue and the dev could look into it. It would definitely be nice if it just works without timing it. It's a great app that probably doesn't exists in other systems
