    @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, finally, it works. Main reasons: I skipped the step with the Smart Phone Flash tool The program modemmanager was installed in the system So, I had to uninstall the modemmanager program and I run SPFT with sudo. I had to change the USB port, but I was finally able to install Ubuntu in my tablet. Thank you for all the support.

    GPS on MX4 UT edition w/OTA10

    Same here. GPS stopped working under Ubuntu Touch just before they gave up and it doesn't work under UBports for MX4 with OTA-11. Each time I want to use it, I have to wait about 1 hour until unav or Pure Maps finds my location. Even I do not move, I have to wait the same time, when I try it again. I changed the OS for some weeks to Android/Flyme and it was not much better. Only Google Maps found my place fast by means of WiFi. But all navigation apps failed for at least first 30 minutes of driving. So I think it's a hardware problem.

    Ok, good to know. Thanks for the quick answers. Definitely looking forward to it working again... I guess with the PinePhone also supporting display out, this should see more uptake in the future.

    I think camera app does behave erratically when called to import photos to another app. Could be just broken.

    Just a quick follow up. It seems a lot of the issues may be related to a flaky proximity sensor. I was able to monitor it with a sensor tool I installed from F-Droid. Very intermittent. Tracked the problem down when the phone screen started going to black on the Lineage install after a couple of days. Seems to be a common problem on the Nexus 4 but there is also a chip in the glass right near the sensor, so it may be that as well.

    @normandc Giiba is right your bank website is probably rederecting to another url pattern. In order to check that you can have a look at the log file the error will be displayed. Then you'll have to add another pattern with the webapp creator.

    can we check a couple of things first. Yours is a nexus 5 and not a 5X as we have had that problem in the last few days and the result was the same as yours. The Nexus 5X is not supported. Test adb and fastboot if anything from those at least it's a start and just leave it conected for an hour or so if you haven't already. Also try here our Install group https://t.me/WelcomePlus

    Usability issues watching Peertube videos

    Thanks for your reply, at least that makes two of us trying to use Peertube. Out of a whole community. It's quite unfathomable to me. Anyway, not to sound ungrateful, I've been contributing to open source projects for the last 10+ years (not as dev but mostly documentation with close coordination with devs) so I think I know something about the other side of the fence. I like the UBports project, I want it to succeed, and I'm commited to using UT as my main device OS. Still, I am really confused by what I consider obvious blind spots, such as this one and a few others (the whole Telegram thing). BTW I found a workaround about the full screen issue: in the address bar, change the /watch/ in the url for /embed/.
