    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.

    @thilov you could be right that this issue existed before. I've been using 2 factor authentication few times a day since 2 weeks that's why i noticed that.

    I will check if there is any open bug related to this issue.

    OK, might have fixed it, I'm not certain what I did though. I tried vol up + vol down + power and I got it to boot.

    [SOLVED] VPN: 'no vpn secrets' error

    @circ @domubpkm Hey so I'm having the same error code with my Ubuntu Phone VPN connexion.
    I changed username and password to avoid non alphanumeric characters.
    Do the name and location of .ctr and .key files have any sort of importance?

    ca.crt has the form:
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    ...
    ...
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    and ta.key has the form
    -----BEGIN OpenVPN Static key V1-----
    ...
    ...
    -----END OpenVPN Static key V1-----
    Both are extracted from the xxx.protonvpn.com.udp.ovpn file downloaded on my protonVPN account.

    Could the gateway port number be an issue?

    Do you have any idea why it still doesn't work?
    Thanks a lot for any kind of help or suggestion!

    Edit1: Note that the password is always missing when I open the VPN editor app, but that could also just be some kind of security. Is that the expected behavior?

    uApp Explorer was down with an error and I brought it back up again. But it should probably be shutdown and direct everyone to either the OpenStore for click apps or the Snap store for snaps as it is a bit redundant now. To clear up some confusion, uApp Explorer doesn't host any of the clicks/snaps it provides. It showed apps from the Canonical app store back in the day (which is why you can find older apps that doen't exist on the OpenStore), the snap store, and eventually the OpenStore. I also want to note that while I'm now the main developer for the OpenStore it was all started by Michael Zanetti before UBports took over the development of Ubuntu Touch (so a huge thanks to him for getting it started!).

    bq Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Edition wants to be OEM unlocked during installation

    @Tartaros said in bq Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Edition wants to be OEM unlocked during installation:

    @Lakotaubp I expect I need to switch the device to fastboot mode prior to performing the OEM unlock? I will try it tomorrow.

    In theory yes, snaps can be run with Manjaro, but the snap support is still experimental and I do not want a snap error to make my phone a pricy paperweight.

    You can try the appimage it works well.
    I just tried today the snap installer since the aur package was giving me the same error as yours and it worked flawlessly.

    @chdslv said in How to do autoremove and clean?:

    How does the system gets cleaned after app upgrades? Is that done automatically?

    Yes. Click packages do not have dependencies. When one is removed, it is no longer on the system, and there are no other packages to be removed as a result. Only thing that remains is user data and config, so you can still access it, or in case you install the app again in future.

    Does this also apply to RNDIS? I assume yes since hotspot and RNDIS share the same IP range at the moment.

    Can you put an earlier Ubuntu on a thumb drive and use that is to install, instead of messing your main os about.
