    @O.o. said in Can I change how Waydroid works?: I'm trying to get away from Android, and what I end up doing is running Android in a UT sandbox to get the apps I need going. True, but that's the same whether or not you can see the sandbox. Personally I see Waydroid as a crutch. It's better not to need it, but it's there if you do. And if you only run Waydroid every now and then, as many of us do then most of the time you are effectively not using any kind of Android.

    Several apps in the open-store didn't work after upgrading to noble, like amazfish and ambot (works with latest update). This felt like a subpar experience compared to the xenial-> focal update where the apps in the store had a seperate focal branch and were expected to work. Why was it done differently this time?

    You can first try to install UT again with UBports Installer. Don't check "Wipe" neither "Bootstrap partition". Then, you will restore Ubuntu Touch with all your data. If this doesn't work, you can try the following method, but warn that it's quite dangerous if you delete any wrong file, and that can lead to a non working device. So do this ONLY if you know what you are doing and assume the risk.... First, list all residues of the OpenStore: $ sudo find /opt -iname *openstore* and $ sudo find /opt -iname *openstore-team* Note all related packages (warn that it's not attached to another app) Then delete all those related files like: $ sudo mount -o remount,rw / sudo rm -rf /opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/users/phablet/'openstore_file'.ubports (Replace 'openstore_file' with the name of the package you have listed / check the exact path as well). Repeat this with all the remaining files related to the OpenStore. Then, Re-install Ubuntu Touch using UBports Installer without checking "Wipe Data" nor "Bootstrap partition". OpenStore should re-appear at the first reboot.

    You'll have to look up if the hardware of FP5 supports it. Honestly, I doubt any phone supports dual external display

    @gpatel-fr said in We Drop Ubuntu Touch Entirely: it's not quite entirely the OS fault's. I would say it's absolutely not the OS fault. 2 years ago I was still able to validate payment with my Ubuntu Touch phone just using a SMS code received on it. Now I must use their app, "for security reasons", and it doesn't work outside iOdroid, on the other side sometimes I have to validate integrity of this app... Using a SMS code !!!

    @klh Yeah, it still has some ways to go, but having it included in UT as a standard webview option for app developers would be awesome.

    @tenbucket It might just be the fact I have no experience porting devices but I personally find this to be really impressive, keep up the good work man and keep us all posted.

    @lduboeuf Thanks, will give it a try. Hope it works on the host machine as well rather than needing a connected device because I am using it as a desktop. I read the documentation, it seems it's meant to be used for building packages for Lomiri, not working on Lomiri itself?

    @Alain Oh wait, so you haven't unlocked the bootloader yet earlier? I assume only the toggle in Android?

    @grenudi In a community project, everyone only does what he or she is interested in and wants to spend some freetime on. If you think, that something is important to have, but can not find anyone wanting to work on it for free, you will either have to do it yourself or pay someone to do it for you. If you later want to merge your work into the project, you also need to do some documentation and explain, why you think this benefits the project. For the ubports community, there are different main channels to communicate on: this forum, the Q&A, GitLab and Telegram groups The Q&A is good for getting general answers to questions around the OS, if you did not get an answer on the forum. But you will maybe need to ask a short and easy to understand question in a nice way, some days before the Q&A, when you want, that anyone looks into it: "Have you concidered...? Do you think it would be a good idea, if I start working on this?"
