    @libremax Indeed, Ubuntu Touch is cited as a potential operating system available, provided that porting is considered. To be continued...

    @rocket2nfinity said @oldbutndy The one from the Devices page, or the manual instructions from his page https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/OnePlus_Nord_N10_5G/Global_BE86AA/Q/OnePlus_Nord_N10_5G_Global_OxygenOS_10.5.7.zip Yes, that is the one I had found & merged the OEM T-Mobile BE2028 info into, then renamed it from global to the T-mobile name, and installed it (No more T-mobile logo at boot) & booted OK, but still boot loader locked, and requesting token.

    Hello, I would like to ask a question about the following behaviour. In various Gtk/Xwayland apps ( in Chormium for UT, Signal UT, Min Browser, Rocket.Chat) when a secondary X window is opened (like menu window or overlay window), and I see it gets immediatly resized full screen. Then it bothers and it immediately closes. This is kind of problematic. My questions is: 1- What deamon automatically resize new XWayland windows fullscreen 2- Is it possible to disable this behaviour, or at least for certain windows 3- I see that in uWolf the problem does not happen how come? @fuseteam any idea? Here are the X logs for example when I open the menu of the Min browser: bin/xev -root CreateNotify event, serial 18, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, parent 0x3ef, window 0x800013, (-53,66), width 829, height 1433 border_width 0, override YES MapNotify event, serial 18, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, override YES ConfigureNotify event, serial 18, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, (125,302), width 829, height 1433, border_width 0, above 0xe00003, override YES ClientMessage event, serial 18, synthetic YES, window 0x800013, message_type 0x111 (_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW), format 32 PropertyNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, atom 0x111 (_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW), time 635893, state PropertyNewValue FocusOut event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyPointer FocusOut event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyPointerRoot FocusIn event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyDetailNone KeymapNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ConfigureNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800004, (0,0), width 1080, height 2277, border_width 0, above 0x800013, override NO PropertyNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, atom 0x111 (_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW), time 635897, state PropertyNewValue ConfigureNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, (125,302), width 829, height 1433, border_width 0, above 0x800004, override YES ConfigureNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, (125,302), width 1080, height 2277, border_width 0, above 0x800004, override YES UnmapNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, from_configure NO UnmapNotify event, serial 19, synthetic YES, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013, from_configure NO DestroyNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, event 0x3ef, window 0x800013 PropertyNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, atom 0x111 (_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW), time 635961, state PropertyNewValue FocusOut event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyDetailNone FocusIn event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyNonlinearVirtual KeymapNotify event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 157 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

    @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.

    I think the biggest difficulty for average users is not using Ubuntu Touch itself, but the procedures for unlocking the bootloader and, in most cases, downgrading the Android version, which requires studying and mastering procedures that are often quite complex, depending on the type of device. Indeed, officially supported, pre-installed and partner devices (Volla, somehow Fairphone and soon - Brax3 in particular) allow Ubuntu Touch to be used ‘out of the box’. Ubuntu Touch was designed in the spirit of ‘Ubuntu’, i.e. very simple, user-friendly and intuitive to use, at least for basic tasks. Many Ubuntu Touch users on Telegram threads have no IT skills and are very happy with UT. It all depends on the specific needs of the users. Most of the apps available in the OpenStore are great and very easy to use, but it is true that the catalogue is currently very limited, and WayDroid offers compatibility with certain Android apps, but unfortunately not those covering proprietary IoT applications. I would add that since 2020, when I started my experience with Ubuntu Touch, I have noticed a clear improvement in the performance and overall stability of the system. From this point of view, the gap between Android and iOS has narrowed considerably. To conclude, I personally use UT as a second device (holidays, leisure time), and am extremely happy with it!

    @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.

    Uhmm.... I'll be honest, I don't know how to take your last few posts. I'm not sure what you are trying to tell me.
