    @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.

    @myii Thank You for the hint! The phone was "clean" (resetted to factory settings) when I flashed it so there was nothing but the android-system on it - but I think I´ll rather reinstall and choose wipe-option this time...

    @guru Makes sense. I also agree according Android apps. I deon't need them either. I test Anbox for our planned device for a conumer market, because most people of our focus group ask clearly for Android support. The good thing of Anbox is, that this approach is a sandboxed container with no access to system ressources outside of the container. It's not yet possible to shut down and start Anbox to be sure, that the apps are only running, if I need them, a banking app for example. But I tthink, it could be possible. I tink it would be even possible to add more controll to this Android emulation.

    @Ingo said in Where are all the bootlogos gone?: I think I have the black FP2 boot logo on a computer. But I don't have access to that at the moment. Will get back to you on that later. That would be great. Thank you in advance.

    @advocatux Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I do believe the issue may be related, and I will likely add my part to the github comment chain.

    @jezek Hi, I think a switch to stable and back to rc should solve your problem. You can also use the ubports installer without wipe. (the Windows method)

    @malditobastardo said in Accessing network share for media: Maybe this could help you: http://kriscode.blogspot.com/2017/12/ssh-and-ubuntu-touch.html I glanced through the pages. They are based on the idea to make the UT device's partition writable. This might be a typical "hacking around style" of doing things, but is not appropriate for our devices here. Just my $0.02 pesos cubanos.

    I managed to order one from ebay, but unfortunately it's not the one. It's 9147C instead of 9146C. It was written for BQ M10 FHD. I guess there is a new one as well. I tried it nevertheless, but it's not the right one. It a bit to wide on one side. So for now, I'm without a media to test/use ubuntu touch If someone will find a spare connection cable, let me know. Until then I'll be a passive observer. Cheers

    When you uninstall an Android app (that removes the app in the android container), the corresponding Ubuntu Touch icon on the app scope will still be there and needs to be removed manually (for now?). Those are stored in /home/phablet/.local/share/applications/ and IIRC all Android apps starter files begin with anbox (or was it android or apk?; you'll get it once you see it ).
