    @hlbkv gnome software can handle debs and flatpaks (and on Ubuntu also snaps I think). The app itself is a deb, so it is not surprising that it can be installed. The apps that end up being able to be installed with it are probably also debs.

    Just an update, I gave up on trying the KDEConnect workaround. I did some deep investigation on resolving the issue within Waydroid itself, and documented my progress. It's definitely a feature-request in Waydroid. https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/211 I haven't done any more work on it for a while, since my last post on github. There are a few libs being used in Waydroid, which I linked to, which have sparse documentation. I don't have deep enough knowledge of these languages and platforms to be able to fix this easily - not to mention android's workflow for builds. Wasn't able to do a build of LineageOS on my PC; some incompatibility with package versions. It'd be nice to resolve this for everybody who uses Waydroid, but IRL is taking priority for now.

    Hi! Worked just fine, just one thing about it: in Step 7 you need cp /home/phablet/Downloads/nvram-by-skyneel.com/WIFI* . nvram-by-skyneel.com is missing in your path. Thanks a lot!

    I've made a note of the tedit paths and commands and may try it at a later date. Or anyone else can try and post here if they please. For now, I prefer the uText method as described in my post here: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3902/how-to-open-a-txt-file-that-i-copy-from-pc-to-fp2-with-ut/12?_=1583692201634 Cheers, friends.

    Hi, I am still playing around with my N5 and I have tested some Android apps with Anbox. Spotify works and I can cast the music via WiFi to my stereo and via Bluetooth to a speaker.

    Unfortunately, the ports.ubuntu.com repository is separate from the standard Ubuntu archive, and there are very few, if any, mirrors available that include armhf or arm64 packages. So, you can't really change the repository in this case.

    @domubpkm Thanks! But I think it would be wiser to wait a little bit more, than spending money on a new phone (OPO) and then buy another new phone (Pine) after I bought already a new Nexus 5, although my CAT S60 is still kicking...

    Today, there was an update for the Recorder app. I tried again to move a recorded file to my PC - this time it worked even better - my phone was left on. No issue.

    @Flohack said in Power drain, perhaps caused by app Notes: @guru Yes unfortunately dekkod is known to enter a busy-waiting loop when it cannot reach any network resources from the accounts - do you turn off your internet over night? Btw, the looping/polling proc was not dekkod but dekkod-notify. Looks like a concept flaw polling every second.

    @dobey said in Install Ubuntu Touch on LG Nexus 5 with Android 4: [...] However the razor images are also the same as used on deb/flo, the first gen 2013 Nexus 7 tablets. Thanks for sorting this out. Mine says "product name: deb" in bootloader mode, but there's no such image on Google's download page. I'll use razorg then to compare firmware versions.

    @Giiba said in WiFi issues on Pinephone (Braveheart): ... I found if I entered: $ nmcli r I got something like: (I couldn't get a screenshot... a different bug) WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN enabled off enabled enabled Which obviously seemed wrong, a bit more poking with the 'help' function of nmcli and I found I could switch 'WIFI' to enabled by: $ nmcli r wifi on and now the the output of 'nmcli r' is: WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN enabled enabled enabled enabled Then wifi worked fine, has persisted through reboots, and is still fine a few hours later. What remains unexplained is why wifi worked (I got a list of visible networks) before failing. Similar behaviour here. WiFi stopped working the first time I tried to connect to a network with WPA Enterprise security, and didn't work from then on, even when I restarted. Not sure if the WPA Enterprise part is a coincidence. I saw "disabled" where your post shows "off" in the output of nmcli r. nmcli r wifi on got it working again. Thanks!

    @ziggutas Maybe I'm just not understanding the quote "It's a feature which needs to be enable on the device itself. Please create a bug request against the repository of your device and mentions this commit..."? Does it simply mean make a regular bug report on git hub?

    How do I copy files to and from my phone & PC with uFTP & WifiTransfer? [Solved]

    @Pulsar33 said in How do I copy files to and from my phone & PC with uFTP & WifiTransfer?: @Opolork : Hello WifiTransfer : acts like a server => use Filezilla on the laptop the Filezilla UI allows multiple selection of files and folders and make things easy I experienced "silent errors" of transfer, often for a bunch of photos which is easy to detect => you always must verify the integrity of what you have transfered uFtp : acts like a client => use Filezilla Server on the laptop I never succeeded to transfer a folder or multiple files from Laptop to Phone I never experiment "silent errors" uFtp makes a temporary copy of all what you send in his folder. This is a huge drawback ! Confinement : WifiTransfer and uFtp are confined as usual so they can only access to the .local/share/<appname>/ folder. The only choice is to use UT file manager and enable show hidden files and full access. Using Terminal, you can create symbolic links for easier access : ln -s ~/.local/share/wifitransfer.sil/ ~/Ftp ln -s ~/.local/share/ftpmanager.costa/ ~/uFtp Firewall : Depends on your PC OS and configuration ... Might be necessary to modify. Hope this helps Pulsar33 Cheers, pulsar33. That was very informative.
