    @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.

    @halucigenia Tape the phone and cable down when you get a connection. The Mx4 can be a right pain to maintain a connection.

    @thepeter Yup it works. I believe bluetooth supports up to 7 devices at the same time. Not sure about the latest versions Been using that setup for a long time with my Nexus 7 and 5. Slimport + BT Keyboard + BT Mouse + sometimes BT earphone. Beware with some advanced BT mouse though especially those with extra buttons like in Logitech. They might be detected as keyboard as well so OSK will be hidden even without connecting a real keyboard. And there's a current bug that even after disconnecting it, the device won't detect it so OSK will still be hidden. In the edge channel, this can be worked around by enabling the new setting to show OSK even with a physical keyboard present.

    confused on how to do a complete backup of system

    The instructions you are referring to are aiming to backup all data needed to restore system to previous condition (excluding operating system itself, I believe). It looks like it worked for some people, not for me, though. But it helped me to make backup of all data my own way, including system settings (now my Fairphone even presents itself as "BQ Aquarius 4.5", when connected via BT ). Back to the instruction. system-data and user-data are visible in /data only when your device is booted in recovery mode. When system is booted normally they are accessible via different location. That is: Connect your device to PC Run adb devices (output should list your device as recognized) Run adb reboot recovery Now you should be able to do adb shell and listing of /data should show these folders. At this point your adb pull of both should be fine.

    @uri - as far as your problem with video playback goes - this is a known problem solely on the Nexus 5 - one work around is to use the UTMedia app instead of the default Media Player app. https://open-store.io/app/utmedia.nfsprodriver In regards to battery - I don't have direct experience with this - but there are a lot of replacement batteries available for it on the online markets - and instructions on how to change it can be seen here - https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Nexus+5+Battery+Replacement/26009 Best regards, Steve Berson
