    I received finally a broadcast alert in my UT phone. This is the first time one is shown in my phone, and there have been several in the last weeks. I'm in Barcelona, Spain, and my phone provider is Orange. This is a FP 5, and the version I'm using is a daily: 24.04.2x (2026-01-29/3)

    @bgriffis Hmm.. yeah, if WiFi being off didn't fix it, it's worth considering whether it's the two APN settings vs one setting thing. Plenty of folks have had it work one way but not the other - mostly I've heard of North Americans needing two separate settings. For me in the past, MMS only worked if I had two APN settings AND the APN & MMSC for MMS did not match the APN & MMSC used for Internet. I got around this by finding a "tethering" APN for my carrier and using that as the Internet setting, and the normal APN for my MMS. I still do get the same message as you, "Could not fetch...", for maybe 10 or 20% of incoming MMS messages, and clicking Download only yields a second (and third, and fourth..) such message. But if the I ask the sender to resend the same file, it generally does work the second time. I have never been able to figure out why this happens.

    @richarddb Hallo Richard! Ik heb wel een paar antwoorden over mijn eigen gebruik: bankzaken: op de bank. Thuis, op de laptop. Signal: Signal in Waydroid als primaire client, en elke twee maanden even aan. Signal UT als secondaire client. Werkt goed. Delta Chat: Delta Touch. Werkt goed. Proton mail, Proton Pass: weet ik niet, gebruik ik niet. Mastodon gebruik ik niet maar ik zie wel Mastodon apps in de Open Store, die zou ik eerst eens proberen.

    @Er.Pe Probably the solved problem isn't really solved. To be honest, I am not sure, if texts now are coming in without any failure. There seem to be still messages sent, but not shown on my device. Although I am not able to quantify the amount, because I receive text messages (SMS) not every day. I will give notice, if I should get to know more details.

    I have a Bluetooth problem on this RC. It does not see most of my Pebbles and can't connect to them. I'm now back on Stable and my Pebble Time connects just fine.

    @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

    @pdgf Building a UBports recovery for the stand-alone porting method requires a ramdisk-recovery.img file to be placed in the device tree's root directory. Currently one has to fetch it from a different device tree in GitLab, but I've proposed changes so that it's available as an artifact on our Jenkins CI instance. Will update this once the recovery ramdisk is downloadable from Jenkins.

    @lxxlxx said in Cross compiling for arm64: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal Oddly enough http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/ has no arm64 folder... Oh, a quick Google Search revealed the link should actually be http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/binary-arm64/

    @mango Divide into groups based on needs is a good idea. Assign a rank # to all you mentioned. My version of list starts with: Group 1: need voice calls - with VoLTE (required in some countries now, and many more in future). USABLE on 4 or 5 phones as of today ? Have not tried it enough to say 'mainstream ready' or not. Group 1a: Voice calls over Wifi (Rural areas, etc). Hope you don't need it. NOT supported by UT. Group 1b: VOIP to PSTN. Please tell me how to set this up (see 1a, above) other groups ? Your list... BTW: Libre office snap installs directly - no need for Libertine. Use wireless external display direct to TV (IF TV supports Miracast. Many LG TV's do). Limit 1080P, even on a 4K TV, due to Wifi speeds, or something. Wired external display would be nicer, but it seems NOT many older phones that UT currently runs on support it. (if Oneplus 8 gets UT port, I think it supports wired ext display). Wired keyboard & mouse through USB-C expansion adapter with PD charging (Acasis $10) operational.

    @idonthatevests Does this glitch involve the screen flickering? Does it seem to occur in conjunction with incoming notifications/messages? I don't have solutions, just have yet to encounter anyone with the same issue as me, and this sounds similar. Only the reboot to Fastboot saves me. @shengchieh I would agree that Oneplus N10 best matches your specifications, and that the BE2026 version is your best bet for unlocking. This is assuming you are in USA, as I don't know of anywhere else where there's any talk of sunsetting 4G.
