    @Noblius said in On which phones can ubuntu touch be downloaded?: I wonder if Ubuntu Touch can be downloaded to new phones. Hello! All the phones that Ubuntu Touch can be installed on, are listed on the device page. If it's not on that list, you can't install it. Each device needs to have its own custom version made, we call that a port; making a port is not easy or fast, it takes a lot of work. Downloading Ubuntu Touch to a phone is not really a thing so I assumed you meant installing. If i got that wrong, please let me know.

    Try the following steps with any media player on your device. If the data is on the SD card, copy the file to the device's memory. Then try to play the data. Please note that it is best to use only Mp4 data as a movie. Otherwise there is an alternative with Libertine and the Kodi Mediacenter with effort. You can also try the hint with audio data.

    @uxes I think there is also a special Linux news channel in the Ubuntu Touch openstore where you can read such newsletters more easily. When I still had Xenial installed on the same device, I used this channel. I never read anything like that with Dekko2. I was also told that Dekko2 is not encrypted. Of course, that didn't bother me as I knew it was a small alternative operating system.

    @TechLovingHuman The Nexus 5 is quite old and most apps will work if they are written for 16.04. Video playback has been OK for me. Please bear in mind due to its age, battery life may be below par and it has a design fault that cause it to commit suicide with a boot loop - the reason- some designer decided it was a good idea to put the RAM and eMMC together which leads to overheating and failing due to solder issues or just dying. However it was and is a great device. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

    @thedeafenguy Does it need sudo or any interactive step? I think those are not supported. Check Waydroid's desktop files but it's possible only normal commands will work and no scripts.

    @mschmids said in How to detect Ubuntu Touch using system variables in shell script?: e.g. check for a certain directory/file existence, or read/write access. indeed, I can still check write/read permissions for Ubuntu Touch /image, but this is not ideal. As a developer, I made image not temporary, write persistent.

    For those who are still wondering about how to reinstall android after UT, here are some hints for you: Check the usb-c cable. They may differ very much. In my case I had 3 very good ones… one from Samsung and two from Realme which I have bought on ali. To my surprise only one of them worked properly. I have no idea why. However, all of them work great for datatransfer and charging on all devices. Install all 3 Android USB-drivers which are attached to the package archive like you can see on [image: Z8wD0w2] If you are flashing through Android Flash Tool and get stuck at the installation process with “In Process” pending forever you should unplug your device and press a power button to switch it to the [image: grs3f08] then reconnect it on the chrome browser page and it should start working from then.

    @AdhithAdhi Yes of course you can give it a try. Here you can find a useful documentation: https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction/index.html I also see that the porter for the Poco M3 is TheKit, you can also try and reach out to him for help in your attempt or even to learn about the status of an experimental version of focal for your device.

    @AppLee said in How to Force a Public Wi-Fi Network Login Page to Open?: Warning, IMHO this should only works if you do not force the use of specific DNS server. You should also deactivate VPN while registering to the new network You are right. I must check that again when i will take the train again but not this week-end..

    @zubozrout said in Where are logs in focal ?: I would suggest trying this app: https://open-store.io/app/logviewer.ruditimmer, which simplifies the access to logs using kjournald as a backend. I of course use this very good and essential app which does the work automatically. Thank you for your explanation which clarifies a little in my head.
