Yes, I also expect that it is far more likely that a defective battery is to blame, plus the batteries should have protection circuitry built-in anyways. Based so far on what I have read (There is some BAD information out there!), there is some handling of this information by Android, so I will figure it out before I reattempt. The Android batterystats.bin information is surviving the flash into UT somehow, because the battery life is in the ballpark of being similar between an Android and UT system. Or maybe it isn't being preserved and it is part of the reason everyone complains about battery life? It would be interesting to hear a battery replacement success story. A possible solution would be to replace the battery and perform a few discharge cycles under Android before reflashing as it is a very infrequent event. Anyway, I have put the original battery back in, and everything is running smoothly now. I plan on reattempting this in the near future, but I will try to buy a more expensive knock-off this time.

GSettings values: $ gsettings list-recursively com.ubuntu.touch.sound com.ubuntu.touch.sound incoming-call-sound '/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/ringtones/Ubuntu.ogg' com.ubuntu.touch.sound incoming-message-sound '/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/notifications/Rhodes.ogg' com.ubuntu.touch.sound silent-mode false

The value you see from /proc/ is the default value, and it is 7200 seconds. Setting it to a much lower value would not solve whatever issue it is you're having. More than likely, the router (or DHCP server rather) is renewing the IP lease, which is probably resulting in a new IP address or other disruption to any active connections. Or there is some other problem.

@custello just search for it on open-store.io, but there isn't one I think. anyway, you can easlily make a webapp using webapp creator on Ubuntu Touch for that website

@advocatux Would it be possible to upgrade my Kernel?

@ubuntoutou that warning message means or that you have installed in your device a non-xenial app (i.e. a vivid one) or that you have installed an app non-published-yet in the OpenStore (the latter is a pretty common scenario when beta-testing apps straight from the developers repos).

@marek_python Yeah, it works with both bluetooth mouse and keyboard simultaneously.

Thank You for all the replies!

@davidcolombo and im not sure if theres any way to change it without reinstalling

@altor said in installed OTA-5 now I can't search for contacts: just a workaround : you could still tap the letter on the right to move quickly along your contacts. Well, my contacts in Cyrillic, and on the right Latin (English) letters. That not helpful. I think, that is it critical bug! In my option - smartphone is primarily a phone, and then everything else!

@wartburgritter I've moved your post to Support. Please, read the topic of each Category before posting, thank you Now, answering your question, the recommended way is using Libertine. You can use the GUI for it in System Settings or you can follow these instructions https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/libertine.html

@wartburgritter hi, just a tip: you can edit any of your posts clicking on those 3 dots on the right hand side

@dobey I'm wanting to do either of the following per PIA VPN installation guides. Both of which are not working. Following fails b/c ./filename.sh fails out. https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/helpdesk/guides/desktop/linux/ubuntu-pia-app-setup I get command errors when using wget. It's as if Ubuntu Touch doesn't have the updates for the system to use these commands. https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/helpdesk/guides/desktop/linux/ubuntu-openvpn-setup Is there not a way to get these to install on Ubuntu Touch so I can use the PIA VPN App and not manual settings in openvpn?

@circ no, it seems it isn't an easy task. Please see https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1206/what-are-the-changes-in-releases

@marathon2422 guess we should have read the info on the app upgrade
