    Not sure if the article is still valid for 24.04 noble. Tried it, didn't notice any difference. Then I discovered app UT Tweak Tool which seems more handy than typing config files. In 24.04 noble, is there any way, even programmatically, to increase or decrease the different text sizes individually, as well as increase and decrease the icon sizes separately from scaling the text(s)? The scaling in app UT Tweak Tool scales everything, causing some text in some apps not being visible if the scaling is big. The default text size is quite small. In desktop mode, it seems that the scaling is different, but if adjusted it adjusts the scaling even in non-desktop-mode. Somehow, it would be desirable to have two different text(s) and icon scalings, one for the device itself standalone, and one scaling when connected in desktop mode. Usually, there is one text size for WindowTitles, one for Documents, one for Interface, one for Monospace and then there is usually a TextScaling factor that adjusts all text sizes (fonts) without having to tinker with each one individually. Hinting and AntiAliasing is usually also part of what you can adjust.

    I've tried setting the APN settings with the info ST gave me, however it doesn't seem to be working. My phone isn't being held hostage so I can easily just use LineageOS, but I kinda like having Ubuntu on the go. Has anyone had the same problems as me, and managed to get it fixed? Or am I at a dead end, and I'm going to have to figure it out?

    @kristatos Nabend, hat sich nicht wirklich was geändert, ich habs jetzt wie bei dem FP4 gemacht: Den Tip von arubislander ( https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10352/unable-to-update/7 ) $ sudo mount -o remount,rw / $ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y Dann bricht es mit einem Fehler ab, war bei dem FP4 auch so. Dann einfach reboot und danach ist das update ganz normal unter "Aktualisierungen" zu finden. Das gleiche war auch bei dem FP4, hatte nur etwas angst, das es danach nicht mehr bootet. Empfehlen kann ich das aber nicht wirklich, da auch nicht wirklich eine gescheite Fehlermeldung angezeigt wird.

    @gpatel-fr Just for the record, it seems I see a lot less the problem these days. I've experienced it again once or twice but it is rare. My guess is that it was related to an heavy use of messagers apps ( Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram ) during the holiday seasons, and a lot of photo sending and receiving. Given the memory leak problem that we have discovered ( I think I should report it to the camera app anyway).

    @gpatel-fr From my current understanding, there is some special code in the xWayland server inside UT, that automatically resize the windows to the size of the screen. In the case of a menu window, this obviously create problems. I guess there must be exceptions for certain types of windows, or when the window has certain properties. For exemple I see the the gtk filedialogs windows in gtk do not get resized fullscreen. It is possible that the menu windows in uWolf have different property that prevent the system from resizing them. I will investigate that, I guess if i find a property that prevent the system from resizing the windows, I could add it to the window very fast with a script, and prevent the system from interfering.

    That was the old UI and doesn't exists anymore. You can modify the code if you're familiar with QML/JS. Or you can download home screens app like Launcher Modular from the store but those acts like a normal app. You also can't disable the Launcher (left side bar) since it is integral to the overal design. May I know what you're trying to achieve and why the current Launcher and App drawer isn't enough?

    Tried ISODrive on channel 24.04/daily on a Fairphone 4. The app didn't work. This would be one of those apps that would be truly awesome to get to work on 24.04 (noble). A Lenovo computer didn't recognize Ubuntu 24.04 ISO, not Ubuntu 25.10 ISO, as an USB image. Nothing showed up in the boot menu. USB-stick with ISO worked though. It would be great if Openstore flagged it as maybe not working on some devices running 20.04 and 24.04.

    @uwahl I understand your concern but that is sadly not related to my post I'm talking about the virtual touchpad when connected to an external display.

    @developer there are some freedesktop standards we need, also flatpak integration, outside of that we need eSIM support and way way better waydroid support. outside of that we need a waydroid compatibilty chart for every major banking app in every country we also need guides to what messanger has what feature supported natively and how to set it up. also we probably want to make a public transport app and start supporting every single country we can. we also need sms forwarding (i remember people asking about it in the forums) a secure wallet for NFC, so someone needs to expose the treble APIs for hardware backed encryption so we can store credit card NFC tags safely. (to please the google/apple pay users) and much much more. we need to compile every UT feature and aspire to feature parity with vanila android (not the apps just pure android) i'd make a full comparison chart but i dont have the time

    @MrT10001 I don't quite remember what the installer did when I flashed my phone (happy memories... not ) but from browsing v2/checkDownloads.ts I'd say that the installer is saving stuff in a sub-directory called 'download' from the current directory when it was launched.
