    @RJDan said: @tunnel rush I would like to run the 'community favourite app' awards again later this year but there are a few things that could have been a bit improved. One issue was that we didnt have a nice award. It would be good to gather something meaningful to provide as a reward to the developers. I was thinking to organise a fund raiser of sorts but I dont know what works best in this type of crowd. What types of fund raising has worked in the past? From what I’ve seen over the years, small voluntary donations usually work better than complicated fundraising schemes. People are far more willing to throw in a few dollars when the process is simple and transparent. Even a modest prize pool plus a custom digital badge/trophy can mean a lot to indie developers.

    @UBportsNews Can you please remind people about the 'community favourite app' awards that will happen toward the end of the year. Toward the end of the year we will run the 'community favourite app awards' where we the community votes on our favourite apps for the year. Keep your eyes on what you use daily, pay attention when an app has some great updates and remember all those new apps. youll want all that info for the nominations and voting later. If you have ideas for fundraising for an award please do offer suggestions. It would be great to have something substantial to give the developers.

    Thanks @tusch001 this was very helpful and worked on the stable Focal channel with Snapz0r installed. I would recommend one change: the sed command should read- sudo snap run libinput.list-devices | sed -n '/himax-stylus/,+20p' instead of: sudo snap run libinput.list-devices | sed -n '/himax-stylus,+20p' A few practical questions for you or anyone else: What kind of daily battery life are you seeing for the stylus, over how many hours of use? Do we know if it's compatible with other UT devices? In Libertine, is there a convenient way to anchor the stylus' nib to things like scroll bars? I've been trying to scroll up/down on VS Code but it's quite cumbersome and feels like I have to press it multiple times then do a small flick to get it to scroll by a little bit every time. Kind of much like using my finger (it's just that the nib is so much more small and thus more of a precision instrument compared to anyone's finger!). Unfortunately I need to figure out how to get my Volla Keyboard accessory working again and thus I don't have access to its touchpad and a mouse cursor (I've been using a bluetooth keyboard instead), so this would be a great workaround for the time being if it's possible. On an OS level: Hopefully someone can formally implement this into an OTA upgrade for the tablet on Noble and potentially even a maintenance release on Focal? The code changes look straightforward if they're just about changing the udev rules and such. I have been working on contributing to app development on and off but as a) the tablet is a bit of a daily driver for me and I like to keep it on the stable channel and b) contributing to OS patches is something I'm not really familiar or comfortable with, it would be excellent to see this happen if someone else can help out.

    Your BE2015 install path was useful prior art for cracking the BE2012 (T-Mobile US, not Metro) variant — same chipset, slightly different blockers. Sharing in the spirit of reciprocity. Full BE2012 installer up at https://github.com/dcherrera/n100-be2012-crossflash. macOS-native EDL flash (no MSMDownloadTool needed), plus a small binary patch to /usr/sbin/ofonod that fixes a SIM-init blocker which leaves Modem.Features stuck at ['sim'] on first boot — same modem firmware family, may be relevant to BE2015 users on certain SIMs too. README has the offset table if anyone wants to verify against their build. Also confirms your "T-Mobile SIM works, Verizon SIM doesn't" observation on the BE82CB modem firmware — same outcome on our end, since the modem firmware is T-Mobile-band tuned.

    @mariogrip Thanks for the work done Mario, Audio seems to work video playback, internet itself works fine, Teleports/Firefox/Greenline work fine. gps seems to work, first connection on bluetooth works. For some weird cause i cant seem to hold click the "kde connect" app in the drawer to open it in openstore, seems to work for other apps, so not sure if its this update... But uhm which version of Morph browser am i supposed to open now? the normal one keeps loading, and the Qt6 beta crashes it seems to miss some files QT6 browser: libxml2.so.2 (no file or directory) Morph: missing EGLConfig, QRhiGles2, context is lost. .qml:417 cannot ready property 'count' of undefined Other then maybee the biggest 'daily driver upgrade' all works fine xD?

    @Linus67 Yeah. I think the priority is to improve the app drawer and add features there. That's kind of the "home" in UT. I don't think there's immediate need to do drastic change to have an actual home. The desktop is also empty but I don't think it should also be a priority. Maybe on the desktop use case but not on mobile.

    @brenno.almeida Amazing work, thank you so much! One thing I noticed - and I don't think it has only started in this latest version - is that if I open a conversation from the app and not from the notification then the notification doesn't dissapear - I think I remember it used to.

    Since you care about it, you are the most likely person to make it happen. In order to make it happen, what's needed is: the ability to unlock the bootloader the kernel source someone who is willing and able, and has the skills or is willing to learn and who has the device in hands. If all of these conditions are met, it could happen. Since this question is not about any existing port or port-in-progress, it will now be moved to the 'off topic' category.
