    Hello Marius, For me it is priorty between 1 and 2 I have an issue what cost me time and a lot of nerves: For my work I send a lot of voice messages. And every second time the microphone don't work. So I have to start the phone again. Eric H meant, it is a bug and gave me this link: https://gitlab.com/EricHeintzmann/ubuntu-touch/xiaomi-surya/-/issues/26 I would appreciate it very much, when it get fixed. My smartphone is a Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC The chat you will find on: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11722/no-network-connectivity-microphone-is-not-working?_=1769183571861

    @mirroronthewall Yes, this is surprisingly useful, as it means you don't always have to whip out a hardware keyboard, which defeats the point of the small form factor of a phone. Missing support for modifier keys is a big issue when using GUI apps in Libertine, as touch-to-mouse conversion often doesn't behave as it should and can get you 'stuck', so a fallback to keyboard shortcuts is just as necessary there as it may be useful in general: actually, your idea of creating macros for anything seems to solve many problems (including mine) at once, so congrats - now we just need to figure out how! The closest I've found is Ambot Installer: Hacks and Mods, although I need to set up a persistent amd64 QEMU instance on my arm64 laptop before I can allow myself to experiment with it freely (it's the only way I got the installer working). Other tools may be available but I have not been able to surface them yet, I will update this thread as I learn more about the issue and potential solutions. [UPDATE] Here is a list of interesting posts related to this problem, which may be a good starting point for building a bridge towards the solution: These are previous conversations on the repos which appear to have been abbandoned: https://github.com/ubports/keyboard-component/issues/96 gitlab.com/ubports/apps/terminal-app/-/issues/78 https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri-keyboard/-/issues/96 Instead, here are some useful links related to Malakiboard, which should be a good foundation to build macro functionality on: https://github.com/kugiigi/jerk-click https://github.com/kugiigi/jerk-installer https://github.com/kugiigi/jerk-packages

    Anyway in the long run we will hopefully switch to Wayland when Mir2.x is included in the system, and then the OSK will be handled differently that it currently is. Not sure whether the 24.04.2 branch will include Mir2.x .

    Updates since my last post: I disabled more useless kernel features I had to add some code to keep the pstore feature working The WLAN and the Bluetooth driver are now compiled into the kernel The artifacts.zip now contains a vbmeta.img file to simplify the installation The repo now includes a script to disable the ugly "Orange State" warning. customizelk.py patches the lk.img from the stock ROM to just return from the function which displays the message. This also avoids the additional 5sec wait time. Please note that this is purely cosmetic. Have fun, Kai

    @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 said in "Are we mainstream-ready yet?": Was wondering whether it could make sense to publish a table or roadmap outlining the exact features, services and improvements that are missing to match the Android/iOS user experience. This would help potential users, as well as developers to identify quickly where to help, and possibly also funders, who could more easily understand viability. I would say that the issue with that is that "the Android/iOS user experience" means very different things for different users, depending on how they use their phone. Some might use Android/iOS, only use some very basic phone features that have been covered for long by Ubuntu Touch, while someone might rely on this very niche Application available on Android/iOS and consider it as and an essential basic tool, while only a small minority use it. (And many different users might use different niche applications) Some people will tolerate without problem some feature being slightly less efficient than in Andoid/iOS because they don't spend much time on their phone or use some feature very regularly, while this might be a problem for someone who use the phone intensively to loose even 1s when doing some operations. I think all this is very subjective. (As I've never used Android/iOS I cannot really compare anyway)

    @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.
