    @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.

    [Solved] Quick update: "rm -r /opt/click.ubuntu.com/[package]" did the job as FileManager did not offer a delete option. All old scopes and apps removed now. They also do not show up in the "Storage" any more. Thanks again!

    Hello, Thank you for your involvement in finding solutions to my difficulties with UT. In my last post, I indicated that I considered my problems as "solved" but, I was not precise enough. I was able to stably fix the libertine tweak-tool app for my container named "stock" (220 dpi) which allowed a better definition of the installed desktop apps. But, as I didn't know the doniks details, I didn't check if the line "Xft.dpi: 220" was in .../user-data/CONTAINERID. However, if desktop apps can be used, especially firefox, all menu bars are always displayed in lowercase; this may be a reference to the doniks details on the line Xft.dpi: 220 ? Emanuele Sorce: the first time I used sturm reader, I activated the button at the bottom of the app and made the settings and font choices, but the margin slider had no effect on them; I add that the sturm-reader's welcome interface did not match the openstore app presentation (empty interface with the only indication to search for a book). Faced with my difficulties, and before reading your last advice, I got discouraged (too fast?) and I ended up uninstalling UT from my nexus 7 to go back to my old rom (resurrection-remix) while waiting for better knowledge on my part in the use of UT . Thanks again for your help. Out of subject: when installing UT, ubports-installer asks for a confirmation of the device and indicates LG as the manufacturer of the nexus 7 flo. I would like to specify that the flo manufacturer is Asus and not lg...

    @Aristid If your still getting issues with your OPO and everything is fully up to date and you are sure it's not the battery if you are on stable try RC and if on RC try Development and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't you are best starting a new thread as this one is about OTA-12 and we are now on OTA-14 it will avoid confusing the issue. I will lock this topic now. Thanks for your understanding.

    My problem has been resolved in both Puremaps and Unav. It only needed location detection to be enabled again. That's something to watch for at the next OTA update.

    @tosaitheoir Need more details - cell provider and type (cdma or gsm)? Most likely, you need to set your APN. See Pinephone wiki regarding APN and cell networks. It's on the Pine64 forums Make sure you have data enabled in the cellular settings menu first

    @AppLee said in Music app, Bluetooth and 3.5mm headphone jack controls?: I think pulseaudio might be deeper integrated to the OS than bluez hence... Yes, there are patches for pulseaudio to work on Android HAL (hybris) and to provide the trust prompt for microphone, which are undoubtedly broken by newer pulseuadio versions which have better bluetooth support.

    As far as I know, it was only recently implemented for Wifi so it might not be available yet for mobile data which I assume is more complicated.

    @poVoq SIM contact storage is very limited. Nowadays smartphones allow for thousands of contacts (virtually unlimited). It can be very tedious to back them up by couple of hundreds IIRC and you'll loose additional information like birthday, secondary numbers, address, email address, ...

    @MixMac Oh, that's nice. I'm curious to know how it works. Does it sound an alarm at wake time with a simple user interface or does it wake the phone up completely before triggering the alarm ? They probably run a custom bootloader able to exchange data with the alarm app and that's probably not open sourced... (or maybe it is) Then during the night, the phone is not really turned off but on a very deep sleep with only the bootloader running.
