    @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.

    @ktatar156 I seem to remember reading on here somewhere that there is a now a problem adding gmail accounts to dekko2 due to security/authentication changes on the Google side of the fence. There might be a workaround, you will have to do a search for the details I'm afraid. Edit: I think I found the info you need, try this thread:- https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7874/can-t-create-gmail-account-in-dekko?_=1673008816411

    @rogier-oudshoorn : I don't need that Dekko2 checks my email every x minutes. I just need a mail client able to check "on demand" a few e-mail accounts in a safe way. It seems to me that this is what Dekko1 did. Dekko2 should have an option to run without all privileges ! This is the only thing that prevent me from switching definitively from Ubuntu Touch Canonical OTA-15 version (on my daily driver BQ E5) to Ubports OTA-24 (used only for testing on my second BQ E5). So sad ... BR Pulsar33

    @raybiko Well, yes. This is a phone. The idea is to throttle as much as possible when the device is sleeping. Hence the repeated advice not to reason about your phone in the same way you reason about a raspberry pi, for instance. However, if battery life is not a concern for you, you could try disabling app suspension for the Terminal app in the Ubuntu Tweak Tool, available in the Open Store.

    @stropbu Just quit tested on my N5 and i can confirm i have issues with its camera. No all quite the same as you but there are. I have the rear camera working (preview and photos taken), but once, after manual focusing on a very bright part of my tv screen, app control just vanished. On front camera, preview is reverted, but photo that outputs is in right orientation (edit : just tested on my MX4, same behavior on front camera, maybe it's intended ?) Also i have what you describes, manual focusing with front camera just make buttons not working for some loooong seconds after focusing finished (capture button color stays gray instead of white during that time). Did not tested in OTA-23 and previous as it is my spare phone.

    @noelflantier The discussion is old, and the problem not solved. Thank you for your great LightP Word Processor and we are very happy about it. We will test on our Pinephone with Ubports. We suffer since longer time that there is no office software which has a community on Linux phones which is happy about it. User reported that everything works with Libre Office on the Pinephone, but it is terribly laggish. Softmaker has their special application for Android. Maybe it works in an Anbox. But is Anbox not just Android on a Ubports, with the same disadvantages Android has? Someone reported to use AbiWord and Gnumeric instead of LibreOffice on the Pinephone.

    @gandalf Best action for now is to log a feature request in the repo I think QR reading also needa to imrpove in UT. Apps that has it don't read QR codes that well. There's a built in QR code reader in focal though so maybe it'll improve. Apps can also maybe use it to scan codes instead of implementing within the app.

    @lx_crawl No option to have desktop files or icons in the desktoo yet. That's not implemented yet. You can explore the command setprop. For example this command sets the interactive blur in Lomiri to false: setprop ubuntu.unity8.interactive_blur false

    @mindpear You can clear (installed) applications caches (and eventually datas and configs) using Ubuntu Touch Tweak Tool. To be done before uninstalling any app.
