    @projectmoon The main problem that currently prevents using Wayland for electron apps, is that the On-Screen-Keyboard cannot work with GTK+Wayland+Mir1.x . By the way the Merezhyvo Browser ( popriatary app ! ) is an electron app using Wayland, but it has found it's way around this problem by coding it's own OSK inside the app itself, which is not really a way I want to go. (Especially for Signal because I want to modify the code only as strictly necessary, and also because for Signal there are other problems when it comes to using it in Wayland mode with Mir1.x). Anyway I've already tried it (see in the Signal UT topic), and reallu the best is to wait for Mir2.x, I hope it won't be in too long.

    @lakota Without unlocked bootloader I would not be able to do anything. That was the second thing I done after changing the ID from Chinese to GLobal. Anyway, now I managed to increase the cache size, so I might give a try to install 16.04 again.

    @dtarrant Just let me know, I am still working on a script that could come in handy for me if I ever need to batch convert several files after figuring out why I can't play my mkv files in UT video player.

    @guru Yes, I agree you did. I guess my problem is that I find it hard to understand why the forum compose facility would not support a paste function. Maybe there's a good reason that I'm missing. Anyway, many thanks for your suggestion.

    Thanks guys for trying to help but I think I'm simply to much of a numb to do manual settings... I don't understand any of this. I'll keep my VPN on other devices.

    @vossi It's very simple to make a search in Github, click on open issues and input battery FP2, https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues?utf8=✓&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+battery+FP2, and get those results.

    @beegee No problem, glad that it worked for you also in the end. By the way ubports community recently uploaded video on its official youtube channel where can be seen how it is supposed to be done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuLFTGkuD68

    Well "sudo reboot" works, but it prompts me for the password. I tried adding the job to sudo's crontab, but that doesn't work. The solution I described in post 1 works on a desktop ubuntu. After doing what I described, "sudo reboot" reboots the machine without prompting for password. Regards Grisen

    @mihael Ok. For some reason other governors aren't compiled in to the kernel then. I just checked my N4 and it has all governor options in kernel.

    @lakota Having checked everything again, silly error from me SP Flash Tool not suitable for 32 bit system. So guessing the same for ubports installer. With support from MDT for ubports stopping is there an installer that will work?, even my windows is 32 bit. Scopes also no longer available. Still battery life good 24 hrs so far with little use to 32%. So will make the most if for as long as possible. Only little issues wifi drops out occasionally and takes a while to reconnect. update: Ubports Installer now on my Asus T100(32 bit) so no need to borrow windows laptop next time.

    MX4 baseband firmware?

    Too good to be true. After five days, it lost the connection again, and as usual it couldn't automatically reconnect. I looked at my script output, and I noticed that when there's no 4G connection, it doesn't run the cron job every five minutes. So somehow it's reversed - it's the baseband chip that keeps the phone awake. I'll try with just 3G - maybe that'll work. Regards Grisen

    @guru ...and great! I wish I could use it as well as my daily phone. I do not like to repeat myself so please just read what I have written above. I've nowhere written that there is no possibility to use this OS on a daily phone isn't it? Only I stated above and gave my arguments to this it is not suitable for me as a main OS on daily phone. Wish You all the best!
