    @Alain This featute isn't in UT/Lomiri yet. Simplest way is to make something like a home screen app and there are some that exists already like Launcher Modular. Not sure they have app groups though. You can contribute to them if you don't want to make your own. However, they obviously act like a normal app. Best you can do is pin it to the Launcher for easy access. Or you can contribute to Lomiri and implement it in the App drawer which definitely needs some love There's even a bounty for it so there's money to get

    @fair For the Fairphone 5 I've implemented something which should help you, it's available in latest daily channels. The change is here: https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/reference-device-ports/android11/fairphone-5/fairphone-fp5/-/commit/13884b434abf95f643f41f04c62b22e73be9fe1c What it does is keep the device awake once Waydroid starts. That means it won't opportunistically autosuspend anymore while Waydroid is running.

    My FP2 is also getting very hot above the battery (right of the camera), but I thought it comes from watching videos, for example on youtube. Not shure what module lies there It also drains the battery a lot, but I don't think it's empty as fast as yours. Perhaps its just a browser issue with html5 players... but since my FP2 can't play back video files from "disk" I cannot confirm my guess. Edit: After clearing my gstreamer cache (https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/661#issuecomment-401391699) I could confirm, that my FP2 is overheating on html5 playback. I played the same video with UTmedia app (html5 player) and with native media player: html5: gets very hot, nearly untouchable native: gets warm So for me, I suggest it has something to do with hardware acceleration not working for html5. Otherwise, if @Danceswithcats did not play back any media in the browser, this could be a general issue in the webapp(-container). btw: I'm on 15.04 ota3.

    While the Fairphone has USB OTG support, its not clear what will happen if you connect it: The mic might not be able to talk with the device if it is not also USB-OTG capable The microphone might be recognized, but then the sound routing will ignore it. It could work for the Ubuntu part, but probably you cannot use it for calls (Android part). BR

    @ukphil you're very welcome. I'm glad you have fixed your issues! Yes, English is a language full of nuances and sometimes is difficult to guess the right word. For example, when you say "you must also accept..." Is that too imposing? Sure, it doesn't sound as hard as "you have to accept also..." but maybe "you should also accept..." sounds more polite? That's why I said it's better to be open minded and assume everybody is here to help, not to offend by default

    Hi @FishFingers44 According to yesterday's Q&A, those of us still on 15.04 developers or RC channels should receive an automatic update within the next week or so... The developers seemed really pleased with the progress they've made on Xenial.

    @matteo A lot of people with Pro 5 experience the data connection problem, signal drops, but not wifi. Strange, cos on Flyme is rather stable, so don't really know what's wrong and where.

    @advocatux said in UBports installer under ubuntu 16.04 desktop: First time I read this /hdd/home/sebastian/ it got my attention too. How is your /home mounted exactly? Ah yes. This could be. Have to check with my Admin. Thanks.

    @marathon2422 I suggested to go to the bug tracker because I know developers read it but I don't think they came to the forum usually.

    @mv Hi. For me, BQ AQUARIS E5 HD is a very good phone and very STABLE with 15.04 Ubuntu Touch Ubports OTA 3 Vivid : everything goes virtually good except little bugs. So, as you have flashed your phone with 16.04 UT, can you say what's going well and what's going wrong presently in daily usage ? Especially, are WIFI and HOTSPOT work smoothly on this now Xenial phone or no ? I'm a user and i wants to have a viewpoint before flashing 16.04 my BQ E5 HD, now or much later. Thanks very much.

    @domubpkm it seems something wrong is happening with wifi on xenial. You can see it here https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues?utf8=✓&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+wifi Particularly your issue looks like this https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/532
