    Hi! After a vendor image update about 2 weeks ago I can't unlock my waydroid installation anymore. I tried to erase and reinstall waydroid, without erasing the personal data, to get the recent vendor image, but the behaviour does not change: waydroid is starting, but after trying to unlock it (with the correct pattern, it gave an error message after an incorrect try) it returns to the screen asking me to unlock it and so on... I am using a fairphone 3, recent 20.04 dev channel installation, waydroid installed via waydroid helper app. Any ideas how to solve without erasing the data?

    @domubpkm you can manage your custom background images going to System Settings > Background > Customized You can have your custom background in the Gallery, or any folder in the "home" directory for that matter.

    @Dave I think most of those issues will have been covered already as the update to 16.04 is nearly a year old now. I would get upto date with everything and check all is ok and go from there. If you are still having issues please come back here for help.

    Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment. It doesn't support wried solution for external displays. Theoretically, it should support wireless display however the current implementation in UT does not work on this device. I don't want to discourage you but to be honest, I don't think the experience would be good anyway if it does work. bq E5 only has 1GB of RAM which is already a bit struggling in phone mode.

    Did you try to mute and unmute at the beginning of the call? The symptoms that you describe sound quite familiar. There is a bug with the microphone in the phone app which starts it kind of muted. Thus it works but poorly. Then after muting and unmuting the sound is normal. Edit: And of course I have exactly this problem too.

    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€
