    @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.

    @eduardo So what finally happened was I went and did a complete restore using an Android image. Even then, and this may have been the problem all along, There was a problem mounting the Data partition and I had to repair that. After Android was installed I ran UBports again and now it is fine. Thank you for your help.

    @CampOwl There are two existing threads that might hold an answer https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1676/development-testers-for-anbox/181 and https://forums.ubports.com/topic/2876/anbox-development/12. Maybe move your question to one of those for a quicker answer.

    @Photojoe4 They do not need to be, while the others do for various reasons. So they can be updated separately from the main image itself.

    Cloud music app is a very unofficial thing - remember that you don´t pay for anything, and it seems this music comes pirated from China or so. It is not in any way an official App promoted or supported by UBports. That said, I don´t know but for any questions you need to reach out to the app developer, which you probably can find in the Openstore details. But I don´t think anyone here will be able to help you, since we don´t know the developer at all. BR Florian

    @mooncosmique I can get MMS on t-mobile pre-paid using the apn as "epc.t-mobile.com" instead of "fast-t-mobile.com". Let us know if that works for you.

    @arubislander said in Best file system format for Micro SD Card with Ubuntu Touch?: @Opolork Out of the box UT also expects the file system on the card to be FAT32 tot be able to automount it. Any other filesystem and you will need to automount it manually after every reboot. I see, thank you, arubislander. No change required so.

    Recommended speaker I could plug in to my Meizu MX4?

    @3arn0wl said in Recommended speaker I could plug in to my Meizu MX4?: Any speaker plugged into your earphone socket should work... there are ones available which include an amplifier (for more volume) and those that don't... The ones with amplifiers are a bit heavier and bulkier... I'm just wondering why the phone's speaker isn't working...? I'm not 100% sure why it's stopped working, but the phone stopped giving audible notifications over about a 2 week period. I had replaced the battery about a couple of week earlier. One of my friends pointed out that the case wasn't on properly when he looked at it, and that it did look like there was a lot of pressure on some parts. I'm now guessing that I'd messed up putting the new battery in and I've physically damaged the phone. Thanks for that. Ideally I'm looking for something small as I'm going to have it plugged in quite a lot. It doesn't need to be massively loud, as I can always plug it in to my normal speakers when I'm at home

    @cj_c I have a work around. If on filling in the account details and pressing <next> Dekko returns to the same screen do not back out as this deletes the new account information entered. Instead restart the phone. If you entered the information correctly then your mail will be there when go back into Dekko. If the account details were not correct, you have the opportunity to edit the account. Similarly if the validation hangs, simply restart the phone. The lack of feedback from Dekko when configuring an account has already been raised as an issue.

    @kristatos I don't remember the precise details, but I think the update got published too early... I think it needs OTA-10 for it to work, or something.

    It's working again. I don't know what was the problem but I solved it this way: Installed an old 15.04 UT-Image with the SP_Flashtool After that the phone was able to start again Upgrade from 15.04 to 16.04 (OTA-9) with the latest ubports-installer Device was still able to start After that everything seems fine again Thanks for helping.

    @advocatux said in What's the situation with blue light filtering on Ubuntu Touch?: @Opolork wrong answer! You need to keep testing and improving UT until 4 a.m. at least Far too late for an extreme early bird like me.
