    The issue was me not having a screen lock passcode defined. Not sure if this is the best way to approach this, a settings page for editing user information (including name and root password) would be useful, that one could then opt out for the screenlock.

    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:

    @hlbkv I can't give you expert advice about your device unfortunately. Generally speaking from my limited experience (I have only one phone with UT, a Fairphone 5) when UT is installed the installer may have trouble running unless the device is set manually in fastboot. In these cases I have used 'sudo reboot fastboot' under UT to get to the desired fastboot mode. If UT don't start you may have success using the phone controls (IIRC starting while pressing Down (or Up ?), or using the device boot menu. Additionaly it's indeed necessary to specify the target (detection don't work). In short, your current state is cause of concern of course, but not yet of despair.

    @gpatel-fr That´s perfect! Thank you very much for solving this stubborn problem. Now I can put the Pixel 3a into ‘Nokia 3210 mode’ with a single click. Calls and text messages work, and the battery lasts at least three days in this mode. #!/bin/bash # ==================================================================== # NOKIA 3210 MODUS: CPU throttling + All offline services (Pixel 3a) # ==================================================================== if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ]; then echo "ERROR: Please run the script using: sudo $0" exit 1 fi echo "Enable Nokia 3210 mode..." # 1.

    @mihael yes it's a bug and probably in the push service. I tried to kill the service process (I don't know any other way to restart a service activated by d-bus) and after an initial failure (it seems that when the service is restarted it don't take in account the task that started it), the second time I sent a mail message the notification used the new sound. To be continued.

    @Moem said: I will repeat what I've said elsewhere: I will bring this subject to the table in the next meeting of the Board of Trustees. That's what I can do and I'll do that. Until a possible workaround is found, it seems appropriate to notify users of the installer. I have therefore created the following ticket: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/4565 Since other countries may also be affected, it would be helpful to know which ones. I have therefore created the following thread: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12291/internet-access-restriction-for-ubports-installer-list-your-country That's what I can do, and I did it

    @AntiMS The experimental Halium 12 build has two reports of succesfull VoLTE - both originating and receiving (non US), and several one way only calls with or without audio. I personally have tried it with all three US networks. Verizon has trouble, but with both T-Mobile and AT&T networks you can receive calls with audio in both directions. However, making a call fails and the dialer hangs. Logs were sent to the porter, and it is suspected that this is an ipv6 vs ipv4 issue.

  • How to manage "Places"

    "Places" case solved. What I obeserved in short: At startup, "Places" is created and provides shortcuts to standard folders (immutable): Home, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Video, Network and Root folder. These folders can't be deleted from there (no trash can symbol). This list is expandable with any folder. These are removable, too (trash can symbol on swipe right). "Music" folder was deleted (accidently, I didn't realize at first). "Places" tried to provide a link to this non-existent folder which ended up with a ".". "Music" folder was recreated and appeared at the bottom of the "Places" list while "." still existed. After a reboot, "Places" got organized again (or rebuild by scratch). "Music" folder could be referenced again and "Places" was rebuilt as intensioned and looks normal again. No "." for a folder that could not be found. Sorry for causing this confusion and any inconvenience. It happens, when you're chronically overworked.

    @Privacy-freedom You need to gain a bit more experience to create a .conf file properly and ensure it works as intended. Don’t forget to make copies of your working settings. AI can also be helpful.
