    @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.

    OK. So I'll have to make do with adding an image onto the phone and setting it as the background/wallpaper. This lets me see how much the image is cropped. I can then edit the image on my PC to add the text box whilst looking at the image on my phone's background to GUESS a position that will not get cropped. I can then export the image as a jpeg, send it to my phone and set as background. Not the best but it works.

    @bobalex70 the problem lies in that the apps do not understand the CIFS (Samba) protocol. For playing media on your devices, you would be better served by installing Jellyfin or Emby or some other light weight media software on a server if available. And installing the Jellyfin client on your device, or the Emby client if Jellyfin doesn't work on your device.

    @pauls Have you tried to follow the UBports Proton VPN settings blog? link text The easiest way is to follow screenshots. Verify you are not connected to vpn on other device using free plan. It works only for one device. Sometimes the connection persist on other devices even you think you have canceled the connection. Did you asked at Proton for the necessary cert file?

    Hi @rkhaja I doubt drivers for the card reader are included in Ubuntu Touch, so my best guess would be to install those within Libertine (not sure if it is possible) and then install your software to interact with the card (also within Libertine). But then depending on your use cases I don't know how you may connect to the service you want to access through the PIV card ?!

    @aarontheissueguy O yeah, that would be great! Thank you!! - I think of the transition to 20.04. Some devices will no longer be supported and there might be some people who would highly appreciate such an useful app. To get their data onto their next phone...
