    @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.

    Hi @markuk, I think @plvicente might have been playing around with Xperia a while ago - I don't know how far he got though.

    I read a lot this days, and seems that Android version of Mx4 have the preloader locked. Unlock Bootloader and use SP flash tool is not enough, because we can't acces to the partitions. But the information is from last year, people saying they are so close to do it. But in this year I don't see information yet. PS: Meizufans.eu doesn't work fine to me, I don't know why, but I see so few topics in the forum, and when I search in a Browser, the links of forum send me to another link.

    @joebeach you can, if you install an ssh server on your desktop and open the firewall. Then, in the mdt menu you can change the backup mode. I even dont bother with my PC but instead back up to my cloud server BR

    @uzanto said in Playing a live stream mmsh://media.enet.cu/radioreloj: I test it and you are able to play that installing mpv from terminal emulator I use it to play youtube audio with mps-youtube. What do you mean exactly with 'installing mpv from ...'? Have you set your device writeable?

    @UKPhil Thanks for your answer. As i said, on dev mode, now we are in 51, i don't have the double boot. But it was a strange bug in rc because sometimes i had double boot, sometime simple boot !! I'm no sure of the raison but since i manage to fully desinstall (i was in dev 50) indicator torch that don't work on bq 4.5, everything seems ok. But i stay in dev.. and wait the last stable ota. I don't have long time boot on my m10, i am on RC.

    Thank you! I googled the dial string for my provider www.Fonic.de (which is a O2 company here in Germany) and one has to dial (put a * symbol for any word 'star'): star star 61 star 333 star star nn# (with possible value for nn: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30). And it worked, 15 was the default.

    @Flohack If you don't know there is not much chance of me knowing I knew my way around programing (machine code) the old Sinclair ZX81 but other than maintaining a basic website or two over the years and keeping our linux computers at home updated and working I've let that side of my knowledge get very rusty in the intervening 35+ years. I really appreciate the effort you folks are putting into maintaining and developing this OS. I use my phone daily and hope, when it finally gets too old, that there will be a good open source OS to run on my next one. Preferably UBPorts.

    @vadrian89 It has to do with a couple of things as far as I know. The size and colour of the circle has to do with the amount and also time it happened. Last month is calculated as well.

    After several unsuccessful tries I have installed TWRP. Wiped the device. Then installed "recovery-turbo" again.
