@Question_Asker you have to be aware that Ubuntu Touch is in most cases NOT a full operating system, that is, it uses drivers developed for another operating system, Android. These drivers are often proprietary and in this case you have no license to get them from another device and slap them on some random hardware. Businesses like Volla are certainly Android licenced and as such benefit from the licenses agreement between Google and driver developers (to be clear I think of companies like Mediatek or Qualcomm). This caveat does not apply if you develop independent hardware such as the Pinephone - that's the exception of the 'most cases' written in my first paragraph.

"Places" case solved. What I obeserved in short: At startup, "Places" is created and provides shortcuts to standard folders (immutable): Home, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Video, Network and Root folder. These folders can't be deleted from there (no trash can symbol). This list is expandable with any folder. These are removable, too (trash can symbol on swipe right). "Music" folder was deleted (accidently, I didn't realize at first). "Places" tried to provide a link to this non-existent folder which ended up with a ".". "Music" folder was recreated and appeared at the bottom of the "Places" list while "." still existed. After a reboot, "Places" got organized again (or rebuild by scratch). "Music" folder could be referenced again and "Places" was rebuilt as intensioned and looks normal again. No "." for a folder that could not be found. Sorry for causing this confusion and any inconvenience. It happens, when you're chronically overworked.

@hlbkv said: @gpatel-fr The installer doesn't seem to detect the device this happens to me when trying to reinstall my Fairphone 5 that works correctly both before reinstalling and after, so it's more a shortcoming of the installer than a blocker. @hlbkv said: states one should have Android 11 installed here it's more mixed unfortunately. If you had already installed 24.04-1.2 and it worked correctly (as far as the device page for this device states it) I think that you can proceed nonetheless since all that the previous Android version is leave the correct device drivers in the Android partitions, so if it worked before it should work after. A caveat is that a hardware problem could have developed on your device in this case there is not much that software can do. After all, so far you are the only person having such trouble with updating to 1.3 from 1.2. If not, it would be wise to give more details on the previous situation before going further.

@klh I'll edit it.

@KJU hello, have you succeed to install waydroid ? I tried many ways to install it, but unfornately after many hours on it i can't find a solution...

@domubpkm To stop the script: sudo pkill backup-ip.sh It's true that I've not taken into account the case where LTE is activated, but mobile data is disabled.

@Vlad-Nirky @gpatel-fr @sander Thank you for testing & glad it works for you as well ;-). I've made a note of the radio-browser API, and I'll check.

@aimar Excuse the slow reply. I was trying to avoid updating too, as my device was already on the required Android version, but eventually when nothing else worked, I did upgrade. I still didn't get the SMS. @pleoni I forgot that Whatsapp was given as an option, but that does seem familiar now.. perhaps this could be a solution? Not that I want to get Whatsapp, but maybe I coils start an account with a cheap, temporary phone number just for unlocking the phone.

@jojumaxx I have a similar issue, maybe not absolutely identical: I had to fiddle a lot to get my new Volla Quintus paired with my Linux laptop (tried several times, turned BT on and off on the phone), then eventually they accepted to pair. Now, a few days later, the laptop is still listed as a paired device, but I can't get the phone to reconnect to it (I've not activated the auto-connect feature as that's not desired). I haven't tried bluetoothctl either, but I'll do and report back. The Quintus is on 24.04-1.3, also no dual boot.

antidorsessions did you have install android 13
