    @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.

    Thanks a lot for your help @mardy and @dobey ! The older version of crossbuilder seems not to work either, as you predicted @mardy. But since OTA-5 just got released I think I'll spare myself from setting up Unity8 (at least for the moment) and will just wait till I receive the update and then try to build for 16.04. Again a big thank you to both of you and have a nice day!

    Problem solved. It was nothing to do with the phone or the installer! It was an unstable USB connection!

    @neopar Thank you for that link. Yet I hope an UI approach for CardDAV will be available sometime, the CalDAv works fine already. I have no interest in putting up further server logistics and traffic while my email-provider (posteo) does all that already in a safe manner. I found: https://docs.ubports.com/de/latest/userguide/advanceduse/dav.html and https://forums.ubports.com/post/4916 ...but I have no experience in this sort of scripting or linux in general if you will (windows user). Nevertheless in order to try that out now I first have to figure out why the phone is on the one side recongised by windows (attached to usb and no errors in the device manager but still e.g. no diskspace available) but on the other side I cannot "talk" to it via adb ("adb devices" gives back an empty list whilst phone-debugging is enabled). I´ll have a break now and come back to it later...

    Yeah, the hardware in all such embedded devices will "look" similar. But without any way to flash, boot, and drive the hardware, you won't get very far.

    I agree that one sound would be better than lots of beeps. The whole idea is to notify the user of new mails, not to annoy them with lots of beeping if they have a few new emails. With the notifications I mentioned, it is the bubble notifications that go down the side of the screen not the notification bar at the top.

    @lakotaubp Yes, Google allows me, and sends me an email to say my account is connected with a Linux Device. But I'm not connected, cause "System settings" remains spinning around and around and around the last step.

    @llamasjm have you deleted this file and rebooted this clears out the old info if you went from 15.04 to 16.04 without wipe /opt/click.ubuntu.com/libertine-scope.ubuntu/current Then re create the container and install using the libertine settings in system settings.

    @llamasjm 'home' is /home/phablet. You can reach the contents of "/" with the File Manager, opening the menu with the left-upper button, and then using your password to unlock. But you should better use the 'Terminal', so you can use the sudo command to make changes as to delete directories or files. Open Terminal from the Apps scope. Then do cd /, then ls. To change to directory dir use cd dir. To remove a file filename use sudo rm filename and enter your password. To remove a directory and its contents use sudo rm -r dir.

    Ah, I don't think adb backup works with UT, because it's not an Android ROM, and that feature only works with Android. You need to adb pull /data/*-data or something like that. I forget the exact command.
