    @projectmoon The main problem that currently prevents using Wayland for electron apps, is that the On-Screen-Keyboard cannot work with GTK+Wayland+Mir1.x . By the way the Merezhyvo Browser ( popriatary app ! ) is an electron app using Wayland, but it has found it's way around this problem by coding it's own OSK inside the app itself, which is not really a way I want to go. (Especially for Signal because I want to modify the code only as strictly necessary, and also because for Signal there are other problems when it comes to using it in Wayland mode with Mir1.x). Anyway I've already tried it (see in the Signal UT topic), and reallu the best is to wait for Mir2.x, I hope it won't be in too long.

    @joolz system-connections should be readonly, and can be overwritten on any update, I think that must reside in a different place

    To add, I tried to install the stock image from Android -- specifically 6.0.1 (M4B30Z, Dec 2016), found here, which gave some errors and failed to fully install (though it did change the look of the bootloader.) I still was stuck with the UBports Recovery program. So, I looked around and found the TWRP recovery program for hammerhead (Nexus 5 codename) and successfully installed that. I used it to wipe and format the drive, since all my previous attempts at installations (of either Ubuntu Touch or Android or LineageOS) failed. Then, I tried once again to install LineageOS, by transferring the file to the phone (see code below) and then using TWRP to install it. This worked. mark@debian:~/Downloads/Nexus5/LineageOS$ adb push lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hammerhead.zip /sdcard/. lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hamme... 4.4 MB/s (329881284 bytes in 71.197s) I must say that the UBports recovery program needs improvement. It's far inferior to the TWRP recovery program. Anyway, my issue is solved. I can now reinstall Ubuntu Touch. [edit] I did reinstall it. So, I'm good to go.

    @Flohack Thanks, I knew about zoom not working since it's mentioned somewhere on the UBports website, but I wasn't aware of the flash issue.

    Nexus 4 hardware does not support OTG. The OS is irrelevant. For wireless keyboard/mouse you need to use Bluetooth devices. You also cannot use OTG and Slimport simultaneously, on micro-USB devices that support Slimport.

    @advocatux : thank you. I finally managed to install android on the phone with your help. Unfortunately, the touchscreen keeps working bad with Android. I will ask a refund to aliexpress seller. Have a nice day.

    @advocatux said in No WiFi on Fairphone 2.: @Opolork have you tried to clean the System Settings cache using UT Tweak tool for example? There was this bug https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/703 but it should be fixed. Also, take a look to https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/168 Cheers, advocatux. The part, 'Settings > Battery > Toggle WiFi' did the trick.

    @dobey said in How to make certain apps default ones?: There is currently no way to configure default apps or select "always open in" as an option. That's unfortunate.

    @Silar I have all kind of notification working. Sound notification with generic sound, the Led is pulsating and the phone vibrates... Sometimes it can be a little long and I'm able to see the message before notification occurs. In that case, no notification is required so I get nothing...

    Ah, thanks guys; so this looks pretty normal then. The reason for asking was a feeling that my old E4.5 might be getting a bit tired so I've been thinning out unused apps, clearing caches etc to try and make more free space in the hope it might make things easier for the phone!

    Same here (Nexus 5) it seems is a pulseaudio issue, can't switch profile to headset_head_unit when trying to use bluetooth headset/car kit microphone profiles: a2dp_sink: High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink) (priority 10, available: unknown) headset_head_unit: Headset Head Unit (HSP/HFP) (priority 20, available: unknown) off: Off (priority 0, available: yes) active profile: off I manage to force it to switch to A2DP but of course no mic profiles: a2dp_sink: High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink) (priority 10, available: unknown) headset_head_unit: Headset Head Unit (HSP/HFP) (priority 20, available: unknown) off: Off (priority 0, available: yes) active profile: <a2dp_sink>

    @Stefano Hi, it could also be "locked". The SIM-Card is in this state until you type in your PIN-code for this card.

    May be. But me and my family we run four devices BQ E4.5 (I in person since 2015 as my daily driver) and I do not like, from the management point of view (my other family members are not Unix experts) any exotic animal in my farm. Well, the first exotic is knocking doors scheduled for next months: a real OpenSource device: the L5.
