    @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.

    @bamboy360 said in Elevate Push Notifications from WayDroid to UT?: Someone there mentioned using KDEConnect as a workaround. I might look into that next. I suspect this was aimed primarily at desktop Linux, although any mobile Linux where KDE/GConnect shows notifications would work as well. Unfortunately, at the moment UT is not one of those where it would work out of the box. But feel free to experiment, maybe you can make it work.

    @TischlerWilly I have a similar behaviour with nextcloud... When I add my account it works fine one time, than later on the update is too fast and nothing is really updated. I found a workaround. My Nexcloud account was linked to two or more apps. Now I set an account for each app and it seems to work a lot better. Hope it can help.

    @ljutica It's a bit a workaround to get notifications on signal, but it goes like this: Get UT Tweak Tool: https://open-store.io/app/ut-tweak-tool.sverzegnassi Open UT Tweak Tool -> Input Password -> press the menu -> app scopes -> Signal -> Turn on "Prevent app suspension" Open Signal, in each conversation for which you want notifications you open the conversation -> menu - > turn on notifications leave the signal app open and running the background and you should receive notifications when messages come in. It's definitely got some quirks...

    @TotalSonic Unfortunately so far there are only additional issues with this: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1192 https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1193 https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1194 However, maybe with the new Mir we could have some of these apps compiled against Wayland and packaged as click packages. Unfortunately though so far I was unable to run such Wayland apps at all on edge. There is probably something I am missing required but until more people are using it I am hesitant to ask how to proceed with it.

    @arubislander I now deleted all my old accounts by deleting the corresponding apps. I then checked the accounts folder, it was empty of all files. In the meantime I had received an update. After rebooting and after reinstalling my nextcloud app, I could manage my accounts again. All working now. Thank you once again for your assistance.

    I finally got an honest response from Ting. Apparently their website has a known bug and I was shipped the wrong card. It worked perfectly after the replacement. As for metroPCS, I think they have some king of firmware authentication required on the phone (another good reason to switch). I thought the same issue from two distinct sim cards (one known good) would rule out the sim cards as the issue. I was wrong. Sorry about that.

    @83jnsn If you want to reflash your Oneplus One back to android/cyanogen a quick internet search will solve that. Other than that after reinstalling UT with the wipe option your device will have all the same OS files on it again. So not sure why the screen is not working, unless that is unrelated to the first issue. Sorry if misreading your question.

    @trainailleur said in OnePlus One baseband/firmware: With the PinePhone getting closer, and already carrying a few other phones daily (degoogled Android phone, work Iphone, now a personal Iphone too), I decided the smaller size of the Nexus 5 was a better fit for me anyway, whether or not I added a SIM to it at some point. I'll probably just wait for the PinePhone before I try to do any telephony on UT. Thanks for the reply. I'm in Canada, I'll see how it goes when I switch to the OPO as my main phone. I understand what you say about the Nexus 5, it's what started me on the UT path (I was given one 2 weeks ago with a cracked screen). It is really a comfortable size.

    There's that, but for actual on-screen scroll keys, you could also select the Scroll Keys layout (Scr) from the narrow hamburger menu in the bottom left corner of the screen.

    @FishFingers44 You can quickly check your MTP settings using UT Tweak Tool (System, ADB settings). It's avilable in the OpenStore and good for lots of other stuff too.

    @eduardo So what finally happened was I went and did a complete restore using an Android image. Even then, and this may have been the problem all along, There was a problem mounting the Data partition and I had to repair that. After Android was installed I ran UBports again and now it is fine. Thank you for your help.

    @CampOwl There are two existing threads that might hold an answer https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1676/development-testers-for-anbox/181 and https://forums.ubports.com/topic/2876/anbox-development/12. Maybe move your question to one of those for a quicker answer.
