    @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.

    If this works for you , you could make a custom group and set this to dial ,this code, with pauses etc ,to give it time to work. Travelling the usa, I had a prepaid card , and set my phone up to dial the card numbers and code, then the number I needed, it was a few years ago , there must be info ,on how to set it up. I remember it sure saved a lot of button pressing.

    Differences between Nexus 4 models?

    Thanks for all the responses and the breakdown of models. My main criteria for a phone is different than most people, I never use social media, seldom access the Internet and mostly just want reliable phone service and texting without invasive ads, some note taking and decent photos. Size is most crucial, I just want it to fit comfortably in my front pocket - and I don't want to spend much more than $50. The Nexus 4 is just over this size, but it's the smallest I can find that supports UT at this time. I had been using a WebOS Palm Pixi for the longest time, still the best phone I have owned. I have not noticed overheating problems but again I don't really use my phone that much during the course of the day. UT runs fine, maybe not super speedy but not any slowness that I find noticeable. I have a handful of other issues that irk me but I want to have a phone to clone so I can safely re-install UT to see if that clears any of them up. I will pick up another E960 and continue to experiment with alternate OSs. I like UT but still curious to see how something like Paranoid Android works. It also supports the Nexus 4. Thanks again, really appreciate the advice

    Afaik there is no such tool available. I searched for this when I switched from Android to UT and I was unsuccessful. But maybe things on this matter have evolved...

    Read this if your cache partition isn't big enough to install UbTouch on the nexus 7 2013 (read if you want to risk this on other devices)

    Thanks for the help. I have tried that, it is a little bit better but not very good. I have also tried to install the latest LineageOS and the WIFI works flawlessly. So it is not a hardware issue. Enabling only 2.4GHz Wifi does not help.

    @juergen67 Can you try this for me. Run the installer and install the dev channel (without wipe) Then test your phone again. This used to fix the odd issue on nexus 5's. Dev is very stable these days so don't worry to much, and will have had daily builds since OTA-11. If it works great. You can stay on dev for a bit or go back to stable by rerunning the installer and the fix should stay. If you really don't fancy dev just reinstall stable using the installer and see if that does it. If you still have issues after this lets try something else but really it's probably best to stay on 11 if you can. Edit: Sorry use system settings to update to dev. System settings, Updates, update settings at the very bottom. As for usb connection double check dev mode etc is on and just in case keep an eye out for the allow connection box on the phone. None of that should have changed but it won't hurt to check. Then try a few other cables that would be the first place I would try.
