    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    @Sentinel said in No GPS access from inside Waydroid: maybe the MIUI version I flashed might have impacted Waydroid's reliability or other things? Yes — this can significantly affect UT. The MIUI image version to use is specified in the installation guide under "2. Check the correct version of MIUI", and it looks like you used the correct one. I can't explain the unusual bugs you've reported. Did you remount the system as read-write and make any changes? Did you use apt (update/upgrade/install)? I'm fine with starting a new discussion thread.

    On Fairphone 4 i also have to do a: sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock and according to https://clickable-ut.dev/en/latest/install.html sudo snap connect clickable:ssh-keys and sudo snap connect clickable:etc-gitconfig are needed after installing clickable, too. P.S.: *.click package compilation works

    I misread and thought it said Redmi Note 7 (lavender) which is on the installer. It has slightly different hardware to the Redmi Note 7 pro.... Apologies (full of cold). :disappointed_face:

    @Merlu said in Flashing firmware takes an eternity: stuck at the step "flashing firmware" since hours. I take it that 'hours' means literally more than 120 minutes. If it is the case, I'd say that it's abnormally long, yes. It could maybe mean that the download from Internet crashed (network glitch), or that after a successful download the transfer via USB crashed. IMO the #1 probable culprit for this last problem could be a low quality USB cable. In both cases you'd probably expect a good error message, but the installer is not that polished to have faultless (!) error reporting. @Merlu said in Flashing firmware takes an eternity: Is there a risk to brick my phone if i interrupt the process? Possibly but if you are stuck since 3 hours, I don't think there is much else you can do. Normally the low-level firmware, that allows for the phone to be flashed, is not touched by the process, so even if the phone don't start after that, you can try again to flash it, possibly with a better quality USB cable. That's exactly what happened to me when I installed UT.

    @viko As has been said, dtbo.img is generally not needed. If the port doesn't boot, the issue is more like due to other reasons. Feel free to check the porting docs I linked you in Telegram.

    @Vlad-Nirky Thanks - I'll mess around with that later. I do have a cron job rsynching keepass and gnucash files from my Ubuntu desktop to my Raspberry Pi. My Windows 11 laptop runs Ubuntu in WSL. I use rsynch to grab current keepass and gnucash files off the pi. I am rusty on setting up keys, so will need to reread some documentation. But that would solve keepass currency issues pretty quickly.

    BTW it appears that the latest UBports 24.04 version does now natively support encryption using ext4 (?) fscrypt, using the lock-screen passphrase: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/ubuntu-touch-session/-/issues/22#note_2475632676 I haven't tried this out yet, but I'm looking forward to.

    The issue has been found. It will fix for new comers and those who upgrade to 24.04. But unfortubatly it will not fix if user already hit it. Thanks for your feedbacks
