    Hi Zaito, so sorry for delay, I have only just logged on in ages. I tested it on GS5 only - installed UT 24.04 because it was the only way to make phonecalls when 3g packed up. Nothing I did enabled Waydroid to persist. Meaning that if waydroid was closed for any reason, you couldn't reboot it without a completely fresh installation. This rectified in June with a new UT update. Everything works well in both UT and Waydroid with one exception; there is no clipboard on waydroid. Which means you cannot copy or paste anything in any circumstances. If I need waydroid copy facilities I have to use another phone running UT20.04. Hope all is well.

    @dave1152000 Your better off asking in the Xperia thread https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3229/sony-xperia-x-suzu-f5121 for now as this is specific to the Xeperia and probably down to on going porting work. If not a porting issue there is a specific arm64 app thread https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3323/arm64-apps-and-testing/54

    Encrypting data at rest?

    @dobey said in Encrypting data at rest?: Encryption is still an iffy topic for things like Ubuntu Touch, for several reasons, some of which are solvable, and some which aren't: ecryptfs is deprecated upstream We don't have access to hardware backed key storage We don't have usable OSK in recovery We can't re-lock the bootloader I agree with points 2, 3, and 4. Re. point 1, that is true, but fortunately crytpsetup and LUKS are not deprecated, and that's what a few of us I know who run encrypted home are using. It's an imperfect solution and probably not an effective barrier to a skilled attacker, but I feel reasonably comfortable it would stop most people who find or steal a phone from viewing the contents. Re. 3, PMOS has an OSK they can build into their initramfs, but I'm not sure it supports anything other than ASCII so without further development might not be a solution for many users even if it could be ported to UT and placed somewhere in both the boot process and recovery.

    @Kunai You should not need to change or uninstall the installer just use the latest version for your system https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer I have no direct experience with the fairphone but try the installer with a different usb cable also use recovery to clear the cache factory reset and try again. Also ask here https://t.me/WelcomePlus as it is the weekend things are a bit slower. Also use the search function on the forum for help ther are lots of Fairphone posts on here. Good luck

    Just to let you all know (a year later) no OTA update so far broke my changes to ca-certificates. But it might be a case, that this part of file system simply wasn't updated either and it might get overwritten eventually with the next OTA.

    While USSD GSM codes are universal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unstructured_Supplementary_Service_Data these seem to just use a similar syntax but are not actually transmitted over the GSM network. Thus I agree that this probably can't work on UT unless specifically implemented.

    Problems with Spotify in Anbox

    @schouk IIRC you tried investigating the media hub and other ways to send the audio. Now it looks like "solving" the issue with bluetooth was achieved by degrading the audio quality to allow it to be more fluid... It was explained that when the phone is locked the processor is slower. Maybe the audio stream from spotify is too hard to decode in real time for the processor. Bluetooth is known to have a lower bitrate so the audio stream is lighter than the original one. My guess is that bluetooth requiring a lower bandwidth the processor is now able to process the audio stream in real time. Or maybe downgrading the stream is easier than processing it through the audio output... What I would try is to bufferize the stream to give some slack to the processor to produce a clean audio output. I hope this can help. [Edit] Maybe it's just RAM usage restricting the buffer size hence leading to those audio glitches

    I sync the pictures (fotos or screenshots) to my FreeBSD laptop with: $ cd /home/guru/UbuntuPhone/rsyncedFromBQ $ rsync -rav phablet@192.168.2.102:Pictures . This is done by SSH over Wifi (works as well over USB tethering).

    @shapley Up near the start is a section on flashing twrp with fastboot then using that to reset/fix cache, system and data. After that just rerun the installer and all should be ok.

    @Flohack thanks a lot for helping me open my eyes. I still don't understand the difference in vendor files but android_device_oneplus_bacon-1 seems indeed to be used for building the images.

    Thank you @Ingo. I've added it to the code and it works. As this is the reboot approach I'd still leave the issue open as maybe someone might come up with the preferred refresh solution.
