    @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.

    Ah! Thanks for the wonderfully prompt reply @advocatux and others - always some small comfort to know that you're not alone in these situations. I just assumed that the issue was because @mariogrip and any other Norwegian developers involved had pushed the update through in a hurry so as to get out and celebrate a glorious Constitution Day, that one day a year where the sun absolutely has to shine in Bergen - by law And on that note, I wouldn't expect anything to happen on the Norwegian side for a couple of days now

    By the way magic-device-tool was not working because the link for the recovery image was not correct. @ll yeah I know, that's why I said "if you feel adventurous" and "you can play with MDT". What I mean is there's some ways to do that, for example looking at the code of MDT you can see it tries to download the recovery image from http://mdt-files.com/downloads/magic-device-tool/recoverys/recovery-arale.img which doesn't exist anymore so you can replace it with http://cdimage.ubports.com/devices/recovery-arale.img (probably that's the one you need BUT I really don't know because you're trying to do some archaeological thing). I think you get the idea, you can customize your own MDT or see what that script does and type the commands (pointing to the right server) in your CLI. Of course, the recommended way to get the best results is to do this using Ubuntu 16.04 with all the needed tools installed (like phablet-tools). Edit: the legacy channel for your device is still online as you can see here http://system-image.ubports.com/ubports-touch/legacy/arale/

    @flohack said in The last word I typed is always added into the next box when I click on it: We dont reopen this, since it was applied to the master branch and therefore will land only in 16.04 OTA-4. Ah, now I get it. Sorry

    @max-headroom you should get an official factory image for your Nexus 5 https://developers.google.com/android/images#hammerhead and flash it using the instructions at the beginning of that page (https://developers.google.com/android/images) or following one of the many tutorials about it that you can find using your favorite search engine.

    Updating with ubports installer coming from lineage worked seamlessly on my nexus 4. (The automatic device detection was a bit tricky, but i think this hasn't to do anything with lineage.)

    Hi @Max-Headroom - I'm sure there'll be someone around who's more qualified than I am to help! I run an N5 too. The battery does seem to drain quite quickly, depending on how aggressively the phone is being used. As for storage: you must have put a lot of files on your phone!

    try the original cable or a new high quality cable and also switch over to Ubuntu. I had many problems installing on my nexus 5 using windows 10, and 7. switch to Ubuntu and I was done in about 15 minutes.

    I've found out that I can only pair my pro5 to a few cars not many. But if you are in the bluetooth menu it should give you the code to pair it's for me that the connection fails.
