    @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.

    @paulmbcufc Hi Paul, No need to open another thread, the first one is still active. I understand your frustration, but you need a little patience we are mostly a community of volunteers and we do this on our own time. It's holiday season and people might be busy. Give it more time, I'm sure someone will be able to help. You can also check out telegrams channels to see if someone with this device is able to help you out. I'll lock this thread. Please continue on the original one: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/5319/ubuntu-touch-sony-f8131 Happy holidays

    @bmarkman I am no expert by any means here; I have had an Ubuntu Nexus 4 for three weeks. But have you tried to just hold the buttons to see if something else happens? I know I did it a few times, but I forgot if I held the buttons till I saw the robot again. Basically I just did this a couple of times following the steps until I saw big orange circles on my phone flashing like a strobe light (I didn't know that meant the OS was installing). EDIT #2: Also I'm pretty sure at least once I ignored the installer's instructions and just hit continue. The installer is actually more efficient than they give credit for, but it's not as easy as installing Ubuntu or Zorin to a laptop. It's kind of like 2008-level desktop install, you have to "beat it up" a bit. Just be persistent, because once you get the orange flashing circles it's just waiting for it to show up. But it took me like 5 tries (I actually installed it twice because I didn't know what the circles were. I almost did it three times but while I started to research the circles I saw the Ubuntu Touch loading screen). Good luck! Have confidence with it. It really works well on this phone!

    @cliffcoggin I actually have 2 because the first one is really cheap and I thought it was defective so I refunded without returning. Then I bought a not so expensive from Xiaomi. Both works but I still need to bend this plastic cover a bit more

    @flohack Yes I have noticed that messages only will appear when I wake the phone. I mean the power usage isn't horrible, the phone will last about 20 hours without use... not bad considering it's simply a backup non Google/Apple phone. Great port though

    @farmer Hi, I'm very pleased you were able to fix your issue. Can you use the "Topic Tools" (icon with a little gear) and first ask a question and then mark it as sovled. I might help someone find this issue.

    Well I think I am going to give up and move on as adjusting the edge sensitivity with the UT tweak tool was no help. My phone must have hardware issues. The phone is too hard to use with the issues and I'm not sure I like the lack of a home button and back button in general. Thanks for everyone's help.

    @applee thanks for the reply. Good to hear. I bought my (refurbished) N5 a few weeks ago and I am still figuring out, which bugs are "normal" or seen before. So far, I turned it off a few times, cleaned the plug, plugged the headphones in and out several times*, but it didn't affect the issue. I was outside in the cold for some hours when the problem occured. Now in my warm room, it suddenly works again. Maybe it's simply temperature -> contraction/expansion of materials... I try to reproduce it in the next days. However, from now on I will always take my headphones with me. And, I guess I'll just buy me a Volla-Phone... Best regards *did you know, that the volume gets turned a bit louder everytime the headphones are plugged in? It got really loud after some switches
