    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.

    Glad to have flashed an OPO from OTA 9 to edge for the first time thanks to the 0.2.3-beta installer that worked very well for me. Even happy to have been able to experience my first crash and reboot after 5 minutes !!

    Just a little update: dmesg -w output is: [ 5021.594797] usb 1-12: new high-speed USB device number 14 using xhci_hcd [ 5021.743209] usb 1-12: New USB device found, idVendor=2a47, idProduct=201d, bcdDevice=ff.ff [ 5021.743213] usb 1-12: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=4 [ 5021.743216] usb 1-12: Product: Aquaris_M10_HD [ 5021.743219] usb 1-12: Manufacturer: Ubuntu [ 5021.743221] usb 1-12: SerialNumber: FC074240 MTP works fine. I can transfer files no problem. On my old homeserver running debian buster, adb works (somewhat). I need to try plugging it in a couple of times sometimes. Similar to the installation trouble on the M10. Thought I'd leave this here for future reference. There is definetly something wrong with the M10 that causes these weird problems though. Thanksfully it has OTG, so I can hook my keyboard up to it. If a developer wants to maybe try finding out more about the issue, I am up for helping with testing/troubleshooting.

    @Ingo Thank you for the ideas. This happens at random when the phone is switched on with screen off and I switch on the screen. Then, the colored noise can persist even after reboot. Because of this pattern, I didn't identify any app as the troublemaker. Thank you for the fairphone community map. Since following 'https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001041206-Troubleshoot-your-Fairphone-2-issue > Display > My display shows a pixel image (coloured noise)' leads to the exact picture of my screen, I suppose this is most probably a known hardware issue. I followed the instructions on @advocatux link, which means opening and cleaning every inner parts of the phone. It works again but it has already been doing working - colored noise - working loops so I will keep you informed.

    @dobey said in Security of data and passwords when phone is lost/stolen: This is only true if the bootloader is already unlocked, or the device has a bug where unlocking the bootloader does not perform a system reset and destroy all data. Newer devices do not necessarily require "authorization" either, but just have a more complex process where you have to also set an option from within the booted Android system. You're right. Completely forgot that unlocking forced a wipe. Thanks for the correction. Newer devices do not necessarily require "authorization" either, but just have a more complex process where you have to also set an option from within the booted Android system. Yes, that process is what I'm referring to when I say unlocking must be authorized from within the stock OS before it can be done to newer devices. (i.e., "must be flagged as unlockable from within developer settings" in the earlier post. I probably should have added the word "manually" before "flagged" to make that clear.)

    Hi @Ingo - Hmm, so maybe they work regardless whether the phone is on or off. I think I had them held down for more than a few seconds anyway.
