    I found a "workaround" for now:

    You can get "somewhat" around the sending issue. Type enough so the "Expand Text Box Arrow" is usable (or move you finger around the text box a little (up works very often), for some reason the arrow shows up then too), press it and now you can press the blue send button to the right. It is far FAR from working / good but it works for now. That also allows selecting and then "overwriting" the current text. That can be considered as a "backspace" workaround.

    ALSO: Signal-Desktop uses more battery then it should. It uses a far less if you close it and reopen it and don't open any chats. IDK. why.

    @ds2k5 said in Signal stop working after switch backup Ubuntu and back zu Signal:

    How to setup if close the App
    that the app will closed that I do not need to do it by hand

    Getting Waydroid apps to work more like regular UT apps is still a work-in-progress. For now you probably have to use the work-around you discovered.

    can we check a couple of things first. Yours is a nexus 5 and not a 5X as we have had that problem in the last few days and the result was the same as yours. The Nexus 5X is not supported.
    Test adb and fastboot if anything from those at least it's a start and just leave it conected for an hour or so if you haven't already. Also try here our Install group https://t.me/WelcomePlus

    Usability issues watching Peertube videos

    Thanks for your reply, at least that makes two of us trying to use Peertube. Out of a whole community. It's quite unfathomable to me. 😕

    Anyway, not to sound ungrateful, I've been contributing to open source projects for the last 10+ years (not as dev but mostly documentation with close coordination with devs) so I think I know something about the other side of the fence. I like the UBports project, I want it to succeed, and I'm commited to using UT as my main device OS. Still, I am really confused by what I consider obvious blind spots, such as this one and a few others (the whole Telegram thing).

    BTW I found a workaround about the full screen issue: in the address bar, change the /watch/ in the url for /embed/.

    @14v3nd3r No sorry in short it does not work like that. You need to use the installer. The UT recovery is flashed first using fastboot then the device goes to recovery to push the files to the device.

    @Lakotaubp thank you for looking into this - sorry i never got back to you.
    The youtube app works great at 360p, but trying any higher resolution causes the youtube video to stutter every 10 seconds

    There is a quite lengthy topic about Anbox on UT: https://forums.ubports.com/post/12443

    And if you search for "anbox" in topic titles you'll find a few more with focus on specific aspects of anbox.

    @MarkG_108
    Hi, I'm glad you found how to build your apps.
    The difference between "old" and "new" projects lies probably in clickable configuration.
    For this I am a mere user.

    And regarding the "desktop" mode, I never used it.

    Congratulation with setting up atom with clickable. Good luck now learning about clickable.

    @14v3nd3r I have an opo myself. I use the installer to reflash when I screwed up. My main problem was getting the right usb driver installed.

    I think what the installer does is first install a new recovery (the UBports one) with fastboot and then with this new recovery install UBports itself. Therefor it uses the fastboot and adb utilities it also installs (I gave you the path for windows).

    @Ingo Thanks for those details. Whenever I run the command adb install-multiple -p spotify* on my device I get:

    Failed to create session Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Missing inherit package name

    However, when I did just adb install-multiple spotify*, that seemed to work successfully. I restarted the UT device and it all seems to work! Thanks a bunch for the assistance everyone!
