    @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.

    Genius! That worked a treat. Well, I've gotten the Netherlands one working. And the USA one is taking much longer to fail than it used to! I'll count that as progress.

    Hmm, I am guessing, but maybe there is some completely new ca-certificate that your pfsense is using that other devices already got via an update, but UT is lagging behind in that regard?

    Thanks for the hints! Yes this worked for me. After configuring all my email accounts I created a backup folder on the external SD card and went to this folder and created the backup files: tar -czf cache.tar /home/phablet/.cache/dekko2.dekkoproject/ tar -czf config.tar /home/phablet/.config/dekko2.dekkoproject/ tar -czf local.tar /home/phablet/.local/share/dekko2.dekkoproject/ I copied these files to the backup folder on the external SD card of the new device, navigated to it and restored the configuration: tar -xzf cache.tar -C / tar -xzf config.tar -C / tar -xzf local.tar -C / And dekko 2 is working with the restored configuration! (just copying the folders did not work, because I got an error message)

    @dtarrant @kugiigi @dobey M10 problem solved! The trouble was the 'Lock when idle' setting was 5 minutes and not 3 minutes as on my N4. Took me a long while to find the config utility: Battery Indicator / Lock when idle / After 3 minutes Easy when you know how

    @libremax oh... sorry, I've read two posts together as if it was only one I can confirm that the installer is marked as GPL also on snap (Ubuntu 20.04) EDIT: found where the package is marked as proprietary: Download the deb package from https://ubuntu-touch.io/it_IT/get-ut Open it with Ubuntu Software [image: 1593600649906-schermata-da-2020-07-01-12-45-35.png]

    Here I have an example. And regarding the icon, if it has a small arrow, I think it should point from the large frame to the small frame and not vice versa, because most times the resolution will be reduced. https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Gallery [image: 1593548785733-screenshot_20200630-221724.png] [image: 1593548816131-screenshot_20200630-221735.png]

    I have not read the whole thread. All these limitations will go away some day. OSM Scout Server can be triggered automatically in background when Pure Maps tries to reach it (via a systemd socket). So no need to manually disable app suspension, no need to manually start OSM Scout Server and no need to close it afterwards. All this is already supported by OSM Scout Server and Pure Maps and will be available once we got Systemd in UT. The OSM Scout Server will need to remain unconfined unfortunately.

    You can set a custom ringtone in the settings app without copying them to the system directory. However, custom notification tone is not yet officially supported but you can do it in UT Tweak Tool which basically does the same thing as you did

    a quick look at the dependencies file shows that qcom_common (iirc this is part of halium repos) and external_bson are needed, are you getting these with your repo sync? 32/64-bit at this stage is irrelevant, both are supported, and a 64-bit build can run 32-bit rootfs

    Double-Tap Wake/Sleep feature on Android is very useful. I wish I could use the feature on UT.

    @lduboeuf nope back to edge for me, these issues was the main reason that I have been using the devel channel for quite some time now and there is no reason for me to stay on devel anymore. And yes this is my daily driver so I probably going to need to carry a charger and/or powerbank in my pocket :smiling_face:. @uwahl YES, great work, the developers are looking onto other things in the edge channel and things are moving, Keep up the great work you all. :clapping_hands:
