    @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.

    @keneda i tried to flash it last. It is funny, that the ubports installer didnt wont to reflash on Win10, but it worked on ubuntu the storage issue was on /dev/loop0 and after flashing there is 282M again free space. If you use the space carefully it worked for me. I forgot this issue and tried to install more apps and then it crashed. i try apache with libertine now btw: every iot device (i.e. esp32) has some webserver capabilities. The power consumtion of the nexus 5 is below 0,5W (25mW in Standby)

    GPS is back to normal. Puremaps reliably kept track of position on a two hour journey today so I guess the second update fixed the problem.

    @8cv4 said in Disable JavaScript on Morph Browser: Hidden settings like about:config Only a developer, which I am not, will be able to answer you precisely. What I do know is that the equivalent for Chrome chrome://flags or about:flags does not work / can't work.

    @domubpkm Using Nexus5 dev-->stable, the qt-engine update doesn't match with it... after installing the update, some apps like morph and seabass crashed after the opening screen... so I reinstalled stable version.

    Waydroid might give some alternative apps if that's an option for you. Also not quite what you are asking for but Waydroid had made it possible to run a Bitcoin Lightning wallet on Ubuntu Touch. I've used the Blue Wallet app to make Lightning instant payments via scanning 3D barcodes rather than NFC. Not a mainstream way to pay yet but there are signs it will take off in the USA this year due to virtually no merchant fees.

    Ok, it was much easier than I believed. I just had to query the contacts.db (I used DB Browser for SQLite) as select vcard from folder_id;. select all results, copy and paste them into a text file and save this file as contacts.vcf. open this file in Android, confirming that contacts need to be imported.

    @subarubrat said in SIM seems OK, but unable to call/data (SMS works): I was just surprised because EVERYTHING indicated it worked, which was true until just now. Everything still works in countries where VoLTE is not mandatory (EU for example).

    @amy It is usually the cable, but also try a USB 2.0 port, not USB 3. Another thing I encountered is old fastboot drivers. I always install Android Studio and keep it up to date as it's Platform Tools has the latest ADB and fastboot drivers.
