    @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.

    It does have a use. If you are watching a video in full screen through morph or in media player you can use it to access the top bar to see what the time is or what your new notification is.

    @keneda no, not a fork, necessarily. I think the OP means just downloading the source and compiling it.

    @keneda That sounds interesting, I'll think about it if I get an a/b slots device in the future. For now I think I will use a regular single boot to keep things simple.

    @arubislander Thanks for sharing your experience. The reason why it does not work for me is simple since I don t have a Ubports phone available. I stuck in the process of unlocking the bootloader of a Xiaomi phone and it was very difficult, and I don t know whether it is worth to continue. I have now also a Fairphone 3 available which hopefully is easer. I have listed the options which I know which are possible to connect a phone to a PC on my personal website: for Ubports phones: https://petergamma.org/file-access-from-pc-to-ubports-linux-phone/ for (Ubports) PinePhones: https://petergamma.org/file-access-from-pc-to-linux-pinephone/ Thanks for sharing these information. To connect a Linux phone to a PC with a network shared folder or to connect a phone SD card as a network drive to a Windows or Ubuntu Desktop network the same way it works on a PC would be highly desirable. But I am happy to know what is possible.

    @loboturbo Hi, I read from notes that we need android 9.0 and installed the official release from India rom sites. The process still did not work for me when I used the android 9 version of stock MIUI rom and I would get the same result as you. Eventually what worked for me: used TWRP Flashed Android rom version 9.9.3 (I read that the maintainer had tested on 9.9.3) Then used the latest UBports installer version 0.9.x beta After repeated failure to install from the stable channel I chose to install the RC version and that worked After installation I tried to update the OS from phone settings using the stable channel but that would not boot and I had to reinstall from RC channel again using the UBports installer. As of now I'm running the RC channel and it seems to be working fine. Sometimes the swipe from right to close the applications starts misbehaving. However lock and unlock of the phone sets it right. Rest of the features at least seem ok. I am able to browse, make calls and use phone messages.

    @josele13 said in Write to external SD card possible with Ubuntu Touch?: Thanks for your answers. I see there seems to be no easy way out except to change to another device, which has other disadvantages (availability, high price). Maybe I let go the external SD card. Which is the easiest way to acess the internal SD to read and write files from a PC, for instance as an external drive?
