    Hi @pparent You have the possibility to host the bridge at home as far as I can tell. That's the beauty and magic of Open Source Software... Of course it requires some time and efforts. One has to make their own security/privacy assessment.

    As a new user I'm interested in the progress of the morph browser. I'm trying UT for two weeks now and I would love to switch completely. However, I'm not able to load a few essential websites (banking,flight tickers) and there are also no apps available in my case. So improvement on the browser would make a huge difference. Cheers!

    This is a known issue and yes the workaround for now is to enable "save device info" which was the default prior the update anyway. There will be a fix so that rotation will always be saved.

    @xixired The normal state of affairs until recently has been that 4G data works, but phone calls wouldn't work over 4G. But on a device without VoLTE (4G phone calls) working, I can still leave my mobile settings with 4G enabled, and it automatically switches to 3G when making/receiving a call. Interesting that 4G data is lost with VoLTE enabled. It seems that it affects several things. SMS/MMS were also affected as I underatand, and took work to function properly.Note thatI have no technical knowledge or coding skills. My understanding is that the major system wide work on VoLTE is done, but that it remains for device porters to get it working on their devices. This is easier on some devices than others.

    As kugiigi says, Ubuntu Touch is using an obsolete version of Mir (1.8) with dated Wayland support. Also, most of the Wayland support in Lomiri comes from Mir (the rest comes from Mir's support for "custom" Wayland extensions). The consequence of that is that there's no much prospect of improving the Wayland support in Ubuntu Touch without first updating it to use the current version of Mir. The good news is that is work currently going on to get Lomiri working with the current version (2.20) of Mir. As of today this works on the machines of the developers involved and is close to landing in both the Debian and Fedora archives. However, it will still take significant time to get the rest of Ubuntu Touch migrated over to this newer stack. That is probably the task that can most benefit from help at present. After all that is completed, it should be possible for Ubuntu Touch to track the current version of Mir, and Wayland support will follow Mir. It is also possible to contribute to Mir's Wayland support, but that won't help Ubuntu Touch at present.

    The last step installs the rootfs usually in system partition, see the install section of the porting documention. Basically flash the latest xenial image from the CI to system. Alternatively push the image with adb to /data/system.img when booted to recovery. Otherwise you could try ubports installer with only the systemimage:install command. You can also see the halium-install source code, particularly these lines. Be sure to check if this partition exists as partition schemes can vary.

    Hi @Rondarius IIRC the question was asked in a Q&A or on Telegram. There is currently no official contact between the UBports foundation and Liberux. But of course our door is open and they are welcome to try and port Ubuntu Touch to this device. The more the merrier. And if they have some issues while porting they can do the same as any porter and contact us on the forum or Telegram for help. The foundation do not have the means to kickstart ports for devices. The Fairphones are a good development base as they are rare devices to support wired external display and have very good performances. With this exception, we rely on devices contributors have and want to have working with Ubuntu Touch, in other terms a personal goal instead of something driven by the foundation.
