    Hi! After a vendor image update about 2 weeks ago I can't unlock my waydroid installation anymore. I tried to erase and reinstall waydroid, without erasing the personal data, to get the recent vendor image, but the behaviour does not change: waydroid is starting, but after trying to unlock it (with the correct pattern, it gave an error message after an incorrect try) it returns to the screen asking me to unlock it and so on... I am using a fairphone 3, recent 20.04 dev channel installation, waydroid installed via waydroid helper app. Any ideas how to solve without erasing the data?

    There are currently a few issues with Dekko 2, but it is stating to show promise. This issue was reported a month ago, but if I am reading this gorrect it is closed now as the fix is in Milestone 0.1.4. However, there is no timeline for this fix to be rolled out. May be worth adding another comment to this to try and move things along a bit.

    Call button does not work after installing UB Ports on Nexus4

    Thank you @Flohack for your reply. I think that is not a problem of Ubuntu Touch. Unfortunately it is related to the touch screen of my Nexus 4. I installed a paint app on UB Ports and check my touch screen and found out the down part of the screen where the Call button is located does not work properly. To do a more investigation, I also installed the Official Rom 4.2.2 and did the same check and the problem exists. Thank you.

    @slannish Yes, the the system will be updated once new OTA is out, but you need to check fir update manually. Then it will download and install just like on Canonical image. There is Open Store app installed and also old Ubuntu store is present to get the apps from.

    @altr0n Looking at this: https://github.com/ubports/android_kernel_lge_hammerhead/blob/ubp-5.1/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_hammerhead_defconfig#L1491 bcmdhd is being built as a module. Can you confirm that it is being built? Maybe it's just not being installed. How exactly did you "craft" the boot image?

    Hello all, thanks for the information. I know the weather app an I use it already and yes it's really good. The new look since OTA 15 is more modern I think you did a good job there. It seams even a bit quicker and smarter. One observation. Sometimes the system stops working. It's frozen for some second and rarely Ubuntu makes a restart. this happens only in the scopes. I thought that this was a todayscope problem because I noticed it most of the times there with OTA 15, but yesterday it happened also in the App scope. it would be nice that this would not happen. But generally it works fine an I like it.

    I sniffed with TCPDUMP in my FreeBSD netbook what's going on on first requesting with firefox some web page: FF starts and asks the (local) DNS at IP 192.168.179.1 port 53 for the IP addr of A? detectportal.firefox.com DNS answer: CNAME detectportal.firefox.com.edgesuite.net., CNAME a1089.d.akamai.net., A 92.226.1.104 FF makes HTTP request to 92.226.1.104 and sends HTTP: GET /success.txt 92.226.1.104 (and this is perhaps not the answer of 92.226.1.104, but sent by the local AP): HTTP/1.0 302 Moved Temporarily Location: http://192.168.179.1:8186/untrusted_guest.lua. which FF now let bring up the landing/login page of the AP But, this (HTTP redirect) is only one of more arts to direct a browser to a login page; see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal I also would suggest a good organized description in the Wiki about some common methods to try in UT/UB to get to the login page of the local Wifi AP. matthias

    @UniSuperBox I have tried it in a USB2 port and it was in a USB2 only port when I ran dmesg -w The fact that I have switched the USB modules between the devices rules out an obstruction. It must be a hardware issue past the USB port, or a software issue on the UT device.
