@Nemo I had random reboots on OTA-1 too. But it took a while for me to notice it was happening.

@Tominto did you remove the sim card and then try rebooting?

Actually while far from ideal, I think you don't get the notification bubble if you turn on Silent Mode. But yeah, that should be a setting.

Thank you for your help

@linuxfanche said in Root information ask: after installing ubuntu touch do i have to unroot my smartphone or leave it like that? Just to avoid all possible confusion: you do not need to root your phone in order to install Ubuntu Touch. You just need to unlock the bootloader, and like @Keneda said: leave it unlocked.

@Chan1234 It is possible to use mainline programms on UT, but it is not recommanded, and not supported by ubports meaning it's up to you to keep your tweaked UT usable and updated, without breaking anything. So yes, if you don't want to spend a lot of time to maintain your system alive, don't do this ^^

Hi @sony, @sony said in Xperia X can not open bootloader: @MrT10001 Yes, we unlocked bootloader and we have status ,,unlocked'' It is not apparent to us where you read the status "unlocked" from, because further down in the post you write you don't know if you are in fastboot mode. What does your device show, check the status via the bootloader, similar to the picture [image: 1690577250538-dc390d95-668d-492e-a18b-1d422a58ce1c-grafik.png] The error message, of the Ubports installer, is strange if the bootloader jam would be "unlocked". And please give us more info about what you have already done, and in what order. Or are you just waiting for us? Greetings Mario

Thanks @kugiigi and @arubislander , caveat noted. As an update for anyone trying to do similar it seems GPS is not working with the App in Focal (so my search for a Focal-based app to record GPS (.gpx) track continues. (See also my other post on "Libertine fails to install a package because of permissions related to the creation of a directory /run/gpsd. How do you fix permission errors related to gpsd?" - https://forums.ubports.com/topic/9175/libertine-app-install-run-and-remove) Here is what happens with Activity Tracker (a Xenial based app running in Focal): • map show API Key Required • clicking on saved activity shows spinning wheel • importing .gpx file shows correctly but clicking on saved activity shows spinning wheel • Recording activities (screen on or off, app on top or background) shows no data for speed and altitude also distance 0. • Map shows whatever you set it to (starts at Trafalgar Sq in London. • Time advances but seems to stop advancing when screen is off (locked). • Ditto for “i” Track Info when looking at gpx track– spinning wheel.

@timofeyshhh Use the MiFlash tool to reinstall stock ROM and DO NOT lock the bootloader. There is a high chance of bricking the device if you so so. My Redmi Note 7 is my main UT device and it works really well on it.

@timofeyshhh Yes, you can reflash a different OS after flashing UT.

@MrT10001 thank you very much!

@deviance The black screen means you are at the bootloader aka in fastboot mode. Used ADB reboot bootloader and then use fastboot devices and it should show it connected. Use Google Chrome Android recovery to install stock ROM, it is the quickest and easiest way.

@kugiigi said in Problem with forum and "about:blank#blocked".: I guess we'll just have to wait for an updated QtWebEngine So i'll have to wait long as i'm on xenial lol.

@Moem Thank you for answer.

@ubuntumale I configured proton VPN without 'VPN editor' app, just with the option of VPN Configuration, in a Volla X Focal . It works.
