In case it helps for narrowing down the issue, it works for me on 16.04/xenial on a BQ E4.5.

If you: don't sync notes but store them on your device ; and want to backup your notes to restore later on a fresh install of Ubuntu Touch (where you chose to wipe all): In 16.04, notes are stored here: .local/share/com.ubuntu.reminders/@local In 20.04, notes are stored here: .local/share/notes.ubports/@local You can use File Manager app to create a backup without need for terminal: Open the app and next to Restricted Access click Unlock and enter password; Go to the location above; Copy the @local folder by sliding it to the left and then click the copy icon; Paste it somewhere in your Documents folder (from the menu, top corner) Attach your phone to your PC and copy the backup folder to your PC. Once you've got the got a fresh install with Notes app: Follow the above steps in reverse and replace the newly created @local folder with your backup folder. (I know the OP asked this question long ago, but this answer might still help someone with same issue).

@arubislander : Thanks for your advice! However, I did upgrade to 20.04 now with a clean install (wipe). Hence, this late reply. I just couldn't wait to try I still have to adjust some things (one of them is Dekko backup and config looks as if restored, it won't send/receive) but I hope and think I will be able to sort it out and it will be workable for me. [edit: Dekko is working after fresh installation and config of the app. I haven't put back config and mails.]

SOLVED! Steps: i) Follow the instructions in the links bellow to use the bypass tool (python script). You will need to press the up an down buttons so that Windows can detect the device. After running the bypass python script I obtained this and the device was shut down. [image: 1681669823966-screenshot-2023-04-16-155845.png] ii) I did NOT turn on the device. Then I use the ROM file (fastboot) provided here https://xiaomistockrom.com/xiaomi-redmi-9a and the Mediatek SP Flash tool with this instructions to flash to the device https://xiaomistockrom.com/xiaomi-redmi-9a

@anonymoustly said in When comes Ubuntu Touch 20.04 to the BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition?: will the Windows installer work on Windows 8.1 x64? You will probably have better results if you boot the machine from a USB stick containing Ubuntu or Linux Mint, and install the UBports installer on that.

@mihael said in OTA 25 - call history and SMS db gone: @lduboeuf I deleted the first (oldest) 10000 records from voice_events and then restarted the phone and now I have again calls and texts history. interesting, so we have an issue when voice history is getting too big. That is why i've done a way to clean them in the UI meanwhile. But we could launch a clean process each time we reboot the phone to avoid that

@ringprince https://github.com/the-modem-distro/pinephone_modem_sdk Modem update stuff niot had time to try myself yet.

And there is also this very interesting proposal present https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/packaging/ayatana-indicators/ayatana-indicator-display/-/issues/2#note_1231292424 so hopefully one day it will get into the images by default.

@MrT10001 OTA-25 makes my MX4 harder and harder to boot.

@lduboeuf I tried it, but its only showing a black screen for me.

@MrT10001 Then understand, problem with application if same in other devices, i'm using Onion Browser working good. Thank you for help.

@lduboeuf wow, it even works with ssh thanx ssh phablet@ip.addr exec 'mirscreencast -m /run/mir_socket --stdout --cap-interval 2 -s 384 640' | mplayer -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=384:h=640:format=rgba - Note: use your IP address instead of ip.addr in the command

@carrabelloy said in How do I get a cellular connection / LTE etc with Ubuntu Touch?: Translate it if you are interested. That's not how it works on this forum... Don't complain about not being appreciated if you can't follow a simple rule here. Almost everyone here has to translate, english is not the most of us native langage. And for those that can't do it with mind because they did not learn english, hey it's 2023 and AI is out there, use deepl translator. If you do not intend to share in english, just use personnal messaging.

Thanks, hadn't spotted the known issue It's a minor thing, otherwise it works very well. Cheers

@musen2100 On a side note check out e/OS. Based on LineageOS, but with privacy in mind.

@monteros_007 "sudo" password is the same as device password you set to unlock device.

@deadbattery It seems there is some extra hardware needed to get OTG functionality on the Fairphone 2. See here

@daryl for your privacy needs, a proper toe implementation might be on its way.
