    @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.

    I also have an x23 and ran into all that. I worked the issue to a halium mismatch. The Waydroid Helper app uses v13 and the base install covers up to v11 and guess where our phone sits. Its v12. So eventually I'll dive into it and probably just end up building an x23 specific version which I'll drop in here and on GitHub. I have no clue when I'll get to it though, I have like 5 other major projects from custom kernels, a few apps, a homelab server to finish, and getting my volla to run android apps. But don't worry some of us are hammering this issue out.

    @poVoq I agree with you AGPS is here to improve the Time To First Fix (TTFF) but it has no influence on the positioning accuracy. We would just need to find out what output of the Nexus 5 GNSS receiver is used in UT; most of the time a receiver offers different types of outputs, more or less accurate: GPS alone, GPS coupled with GLONASS (seems like the Nexus 5 GNSS receiver uses both constellations), GPS coupled with SBAS (WAAS over the US, EGNOS over Europe, etc.). Maybe we should get in touch with the developers of UT regarding this specific issue in order to find a way to improve the positioning accuracy. How can we reach them on that subject?

    Thanks AppLee UT is pretty awesome. Really appreciate UBPorts taking over what Canonical started. I've found a lot of annoying quirks in it too, since I compare everything to Android, which of course isn't fair. Some can be worked around - but then some is just to annoying. Hence my 'post of frustration'. I'm trying to get an overview github (did a post there some days ago regarding another issue, not getting any feedback - maybe posted wrongly, I don't know). It's a bit confusing navigating github/gitlabs - but ... baby steps. Happy holidays to you too

  • [Solved] Xperia X: Constantly reboots in recovery, unable to flash

    Wow, that was quick - many thanks to you @Lakotaubp and @makeixo! Indeed, wiping the caches using twrp as suggested in the linked topic helped: The recovery did not reboot anymore and I was able to complete the installation of UBports. Unfortunately, I got a black screen afterwards. So I did the following: removed card tray (was empty anyways, but who knows) downloaded and flashed the (older) SW binaries for Android 7.1 as my device had the newer ones for Android 8 before switched to the "edge" channel Not sure which of these did the trick, but now UBports boots up just fine.

    @polyglossia we can do little about it, and big companies will almost always refuse to build their Apps for anything else than iOS and Android. Its the sad story of mobile devices that webapps, which would be sufficient in lets say 70% of cases, are dying a slow death nowadays.

    Hi, finally, it works. Main reasons: I skipped the step with the Smart Phone Flash tool The program modemmanager was installed in the system So, I had to uninstall the modemmanager program and I run SPFT with sudo. I had to change the USB port, but I was finally able to install Ubuntu in my tablet. Thank you for all the support.

    Same here. GPS stopped working under Ubuntu Touch just before they gave up and it doesn't work under UBports for MX4 with OTA-11. Each time I want to use it, I have to wait about 1 hour until unav or Pure Maps finds my location. Even I do not move, I have to wait the same time, when I try it again. I changed the OS for some weeks to Android/Flyme and it was not much better. Only Google Maps found my place fast by means of WiFi. But all navigation apps failed for at least first 30 minutes of driving. So I think it's a hardware problem.

    Ok, good to know. Thanks for the quick answers. Definitely looking forward to it working again... I guess with the PinePhone also supporting display out, this should see more uptake in the future.

    I think camera app does behave erratically when called to import photos to another app. Could be just broken.
