    @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.

    I solved this. Seems it doesn't work if it's in the Documents directory. It did work when I moved it to the Downloads directory.

    @MarkG_108 Any app is useless, if you don't need it. Just because something is useless to you, doesn't mean it's useless to everyone. The "Hello World" thing is probably an example app. There are several example apps in the store. This is no different on other app stores, so there's no need to denigrate our store with such unkind words, simply because there aren't millions of apps covering up the few you don't care about.

    So Release Candidate is halfway between Dev and Stable, I assume. I will stay on Dev for the moment. If I get frustrated, I'll try RC.

    @lool_lauris I downloaded hh_clamor_repartition.zip and inspected its shell scripts. They are very simple if you are familiar with Linux system administration. Just usage of "dd", "parted" and "make_ext4fs" utils. Looking at current partitioning I figured out that my Nexus was affected by hh_repartition_32GB.sh script and to rollback the changes I just need to run the hh_stock_32GB.sh and that is it. Also before that for safety I did backup of crypto and grow partitions to my laptop because those scripts do that too.

    @poVoq I agree with you AGPS is here to improve the Time To First Fix (TTFF) but it has no influence on the positioning accuracy. We would just need to find out what output of the Nexus 5 GNSS receiver is used in UT; most of the time a receiver offers different types of outputs, more or less accurate: GPS alone, GPS coupled with GLONASS (seems like the Nexus 5 GNSS receiver uses both constellations), GPS coupled with SBAS (WAAS over the US, EGNOS over Europe, etc.). Maybe we should get in touch with the developers of UT regarding this specific issue in order to find a way to improve the positioning accuracy. How can we reach them on that subject?

    Thanks AppLee UT is pretty awesome. Really appreciate UBPorts taking over what Canonical started. I've found a lot of annoying quirks in it too, since I compare everything to Android, which of course isn't fair. Some can be worked around - but then some is just to annoying. Hence my 'post of frustration'. I'm trying to get an overview github (did a post there some days ago regarding another issue, not getting any feedback - maybe posted wrongly, I don't know). It's a bit confusing navigating github/gitlabs - but ... baby steps. Happy holidays to you too

    Wow, that was quick - many thanks to you @Lakotaubp and @makeixo! Indeed, wiping the caches using twrp as suggested in the linked topic helped: The recovery did not reboot anymore and I was able to complete the installation of UBports. Unfortunately, I got a black screen afterwards. So I did the following: removed card tray (was empty anyways, but who knows) downloaded and flashed the (older) SW binaries for Android 7.1 as my device had the newer ones for Android 8 before switched to the "edge" channel Not sure which of these did the trick, but now UBports boots up just fine.

    @polyglossia we can do little about it, and big companies will almost always refuse to build their Apps for anything else than iOS and Android. Its the sad story of mobile devices that webapps, which would be sufficient in lets say 70% of cases, are dying a slow death nowadays.
