    My granddaughter is over for a couple days visit, and we decided to go out and play disc golf. I thought it would be a god idea for her to tuck a phone in her pocket and practice calling her dad, her mom, and me. We practiced hitting the power button, sliding to the left and to the right, finding the contacts icon and finding her parents and me. Got great cell coverage in NWATL area. I think I need to explore a few of the games next. But Ubuntu Touch on a OnePlus Nord N10 on the Mint network is 8 year old granddaughter approved. Well, we'll need to check messaging next. Granddaughter texts are very emoticon heavy. We haven't checked that out yet.

    Hello I found an guide on how to enable wireguard configs I did this WireGuard, For WireGuard you should rename your config-file to wg0.conf, otherwise nmcli is complaining about wrong interface name. sudo nmcli connection import type wireguard file /path/to/your/wg0.conf The Wireguard connection does not appear in the settings app. The newly created interface is getting activated immediately and also at reboots. For de-/activating it, you also need to use terminal-commands: Bring it up: nmcli c up wg0 Shut it down: nmcli c down wg0 I can connect and running an leak tests only show the VPN DNS but in my router running addguard home I can see the DNS requests even with the VPN in ubuntu touch on like it was dissabled

    @DJac Comme j'ai mis dans la description de l'app pour cela il faut attendre que l'on passe à Qt6. Il faut être patient au niveau de l'upgrade systême, mais je pense qu'on peut maintenant l'espérer d'ici à quelques mois. Ensuite les messages fonctionneront bien! En attendant tu peux utiliser le Morph Qt6 beta, Min browser, ou Chromium for Ut.

    I would like to add to my list, a new priority 2 that since I upgraded my Vollaphone 22 to 24.04-1.1, I have recurrent crashes / freeze, seems an Out of memory problem, and might be related to the dialer and/or VoLTE. I did not have any similar problem before. It greatly reduce the reliability and usability of the phone unfortunately. https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/reference-device-ports/android11/volla-phone-22/volla-mimameid/-/issues/24

    @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

    Hopefully there'll be a Nextcloud-gpodder integration soon. That's the only thing preventing me from using this instead of Antennapod via Waydroid

    @linhmieu2 Before ubuntu.img is sent to userdata have you formatted it (to EXT4, being Samsung it should be EXT4)?

    I also struggled getting into a development ready state due to the readme inconsistencies. An unfortunate barrier to entry. That said, it looks like this would bring Clickable deps up to date for Noble (once merged): https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri/-/merge_requests/254

    @uxes That is a great program, but I heard that ATL relies on GTK. Which is not integrated into UT. And besides, list of supported apps is limited compared to Waydroid.

    @toniox EDL is different on Xiaomi devices. You have to use the MIFlash tool and use a MI account to log in (a complete f*&*&^$$ around to put it politely to get that done), then download the latest fastboot ROM for that device and I mean the latest fastboot ROM, unzip it and direct the MI flash tool to that. Hold Volume UP and Volume down together and plug the device into the PC and it has to be a Windows PC, MiFlash will not work otherwise, ensure you leave the bottom right box ticked for clean and install, do NOT lock the bootloader. Then start the process. If it fails, keep trying, it will work eventually. Unbricked my Mi A3 using this and it took a lot of attempts. The other EDL mode is mutch the same, but requires opening the back, removing the mainboard cover and shorting the two EDL points, which requires fashioning a tool to do so so you can short the points and plug the USB cable in without requiring 4 pairs of hands. EDL mode should work as it is the lowest point of entry to reflash the stock ROM and as the phone boots with that dialogue it should work. What I cannot understand is an Xiaomi repair centre couldn't do this procedure! Any pro repair shop should be able to do this. The other alternative is to buy a broken one and swap mainboards to get a functioning device. It depends how far you want to take this.
