    @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.

    Although I can't provide any sort of solution I have the same two issues on my recently acquired Nexus 7 deb. In addition rotation doesn't work (although I know this is an issue on Android too); also it reboots itself whenever I turn it off. It's not immediate but takes up to about 20 minutes. That said, it's a great little tablet with UT on it.

    I just got this working now, thanks for the responses. I reinstalled the calendar, deleted gmail and caldav account and started completely fresh and it synced up and now shows the caldav option in the calendar settings!

    @domubpkm said in Copy / Paste and Webapps: "Dan is extremely busy with it. He is moving Oxide dependent elements towards support by qtwebengine. Not an easy task." Well, I don't think Dan is doing the work to convert it to webengine, but yes it is happening, and it is not easy due to how Dekko uses oxide.

    Unfortunatly the Ubuntu Touch emulator is not maintained anymore, but you can find some videos on internet. You can in Europe have a compatible device for less than 100€

    @dobey said in How to actually clear internet history: I don't think it's necessary to go into every webapp and delete the cookies all the time. The cookie policy should be that 3rd party cookies are disabled by default, so only those from the site you're visiting should be allowed in the webapps. Ok @dobey said in How to actually clear internet history: Webapp packages do not need updates unless.. Ok i have my answer. Thank you

    @Marathon2422 I have looked at xxx.skyneel.com and found on it two methods to restore the IMEI on a phone, but none of these works on mine : 1- by installing MobileUncle apps, but its is an android apps so I cant install it on an ubuntu touch phone. 2- by entering the engineering mode by tapping code * # * # 3646633 # * # * or *#4634#, but in my case nothing happens So what could I try now ? should I install an Android system on my aquaris E5 HD and then install MobileUncle apps ? but how to do it ?

    @domubpkm & @lduboeuf Thanks guys for explaining to me. I hid the keyboard like you suggested & it froze again, but when I selected the menu before typing, the menu choices actually loaded in the new window. You basically need to be out of "text entry mode" before you tap the dropdown menu. Thanks again

    @kugiigi said in List of feature requests/bugs: First of all, I think it's better to create issues in github for bugs and feature requests Im not aware if github, but i will look it up and maybe will repost there? I would like to give some comments and opinions on your items. I think this makes sense especially if you just answered a call while in an app. It's not a big deal though because your recent app is a short right swipe away IMO, this isn't a necessity because you really don't need to close all your apps and I've read a few articles that suggests not to even on Android because reopning apps will consume more power and battery. Don't quote me on that though And also UT suspends apps so no need to worry on them consuming your battery. Im not necessarily worried about battery life, more so of it getting too cluttered with many pages What device do you have? Scaling a bit differs in each device. I find scaling on bq E5/E4.5 a bit too big which I guess what you want. It's ideal to me on Nexus 5 though. In any case, you may download UT Tweak Tool from the OpenStore and system scaling can be changed from there. I have a OPO. Ut tweak tool is great but it scales everything (obviously), so the items that were perfect become too big I think you mean app startup time here. It's one of the things UT lags behind Android and iOS and trust me it has already improved a lot from the past years. There might be more improvements in the upcoming updated Unity 8 and Mir Also note that first startup takes more time and it'll be faster the next time. Notifications are already accessible from the lockscreen through the notification indicator...unless you disabled notifications on lockscreen. And it's already possible to disable the circle of life Settings app (Security & Privacy >> Stats on welcome screen). What i mean is the quick popup notification after a text is received for example, it disapears very fast. The swipe notification from the top is good but not when i pull it out of my pocket for a quick check; its an additional step. I didn't see this setting thanks! If I remember correctly, there was a discussion about this and I think someone already said that it's technically possible and might come in the future. I don't have an OPO but I can confirm that autofocus is a bit wonky on UT. Won't make sense since there are pages that you can scroll and swiping upwards will have conflict on those. And in my opinion, it's already great the you close from the bottom since it's easily reachable on phones. Im not aware of anything that is verticaly swipable in the top menu, though I haven't been using UT very long
