    @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.

    I'm delighted to be able to report that I've finally got NextCloud working on my Nexus 5, and I really couldn't be happier. Thanks for all the support, especially from the Telegram UBPorts Clouderama group - in particular Wayne(OutThere) and Amolith Seregoin. This really is a very able and supportive community.

    @snappy sure would be nice to have more devices supported though. We have a J5 knocking around here and to be able to move that to UBPorts would be the better option, than staying with its old os.

    Having trouble getting content to appear in the open store app. Just seeing blank page. It works mostly when I am on wifi, but rarely when using mobile data. I have no trouble reaching the open store through the UT web browser.

    @bruno said in BQ Aquaris M10 HD won't turn on [solved]: h am android package cause BQ don't provide an ubuntu package for the HD edition anymore. Afterwards i could reflash the device back to UT by using the UBPorts installer! Now i'm glad to have a running device and i stricktly avoid to power it down... Btw: after reflashing to android the battery power was only 1%. This after shutdown only 48h before. So the shutdown was defintly incomplete and the device drained the battery strongly. My question now: is this a BQ problem? Or is it a UT bug? I think your battery was drained just in time when you plugged it in. When that happened to me i could not connect it to my computer. Your reflash was most likely not necessary. Bug is with UT. Never happened to me when i used Android.

    Same here. UT 15.04 OTA-3 on a Nexus 5 is now my only working phone. I haven't had this happen to me yet. If nothing else works, possibly just a re-install of the image? I had bugs with my sim card that went away completely after my 2nd install. It's been bothering me, but I honestly have no clue what/if I did anything differently the 2nd time around. I guess repeating tasks with expectation of different results pays off for some of us... The issue hasn't returned since.

    I would file this as issue in the installer tracker, the forum is probably a too slow place for that: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues - and check before if its not a duplicate BR

    @domubpkm said in LIFESPAN BQ 4.5 BATTERY: @manolollr what's you say is very interesting, thanks for your comments. I think so there is no battery draining when phone is in sleep mode. I'm only a user but i think maybe there is a lot of battery draining when CPU or processor meet a defined temperature, a threshold, when it become warm. And when we go to internet, the processor become more quickly warm than if we use a 'basic' app. I notice that. Is there a command on terminal to see the processor temperature ? Have a look at $ ls -l /sys/devices/platform/battery/power_supply/battery/ ... $ cat /sys/devices/platform/battery/power_supply/battery/batt_temp 250 $ cat /sys/devices/platform/battery/power_supply/battery/batt_vol 4220 matthias

    @hudson said in I need you ! from France !!! Scopes ??: Thank you for your answers @alan_g : I know for a fact that I am not a consumer but I will like to find scopes today and news for example. It would be necessary to find the sources and to be able to install them on the terminal. But is it possible? I don't have knowledge of the details, but the code is open source so you can find it, build it, package it and deploy it. If you can get it working you should also upload it to the open store so that others can benefit too. The folks around here will guide you with each step along that path. I contacted canonical and the former developers of the scope Today but for now no response from them. The team at Canonical was disbanded a year ago and most of the developers now work elsewhere. What I found ideal in this system was precisely the scope system.guide Then that's the one to start with! Now I'm sorry, but I find that the terminal looks without these scopes to an old android. Maybe I have to develop it myself. I will keep you informed of the evolution of my reflection. Good luck!

    Thx mates, I tried to make a eMMC reset & it stuck during startup, this device is getting on a slippery slope... I'll probably indulge myself w/ a Meizu Pro 5 as the android container project looks very promising... Thanks a load for all the support though !

    Found the solution: adb reboot bootloader Then boot it into recovery and then: ubuntu-device-flash touch --device=mako --server=http://system-image.ubports.com --channel=15.04/stable This ends with: 2018/02/26 21:42:20 error pushing: adb: error: connect failed: no devices/emulators found But after rebooting it it is up and running 15.04 without any problems Sorry for not trying harder before posting above!

    @advocatux It was already turned on. Seems it is just something to do with the two step thing. I turned it on ages ago to get dekko2 working when it first came out.

    Looks like that's a very old port to the Galaxy S3. Unfortunately, you would not get the real Ubuntu Touch experience on a port that old. I don't think anyone has those files.

    @andromeda I think it's better a clean start if you're experiencing problems, but you can backup whatever you want from click packages only to the whole /home directory You can use ssh or adb for that.

    @andromeda Sorry your still having issues. Only thing I could suggest on my little knowledge/experience would be to back up everything factory reset the tablet and try a clean install of ubports. It's a right old faff of a job but if its still doing it after that it may well be the hardware, thats if you haven't tried that already of course. If its only restarting when charging it may be charger issue but I guess you've tried different chargers well/ cables as well.
