    The issue was me not having a screen lock passcode defined. Not sure if this is the best way to approach this, a settings page for editing user information (including name and root password) would be useful, that one could then opt out for the screenlock.

    @kugiigi Thanks, I'll give it a try. I found a rather crude way to restart the keyboard, using the Fcitx5 app I installed in an attempt to find an alternative keyboard. Fcitx5 isn't really reliable yet, but with it I was able to restore the default keyboard (restore button in the settings of the app), and that works fine. As to your guess: No, no external keyboard is detected, an no keyboard icon appears in the top bar. Only difference I notice is that the time display disappears in the top bar or shows a wrong time in UT, while in waydroid it is correct, but that's a different story...

    @Tartaros said in bq Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Edition wants to be OEM unlocked during installation: @Lakotaubp I expect I need to switch the device to fastboot mode prior to performing the OEM unlock? I will try it tomorrow. In theory yes, snaps can be run with Manjaro, but the snap support is still experimental and I do not want a snap error to make my phone a pricy paperweight. You can try the appimage it works well. I just tried today the snap installer since the aur package was giving me the same error as yours and it worked flawlessly.

    @chdslv said in How to do autoremove and clean?: How does the system gets cleaned after app upgrades? Is that done automatically? Yes. Click packages do not have dependencies. When one is removed, it is no longer on the system, and there are no other packages to be removed as a result. Only thing that remains is user data and config, so you can still access it, or in case you install the app again in future.

    Does this also apply to RNDIS? I assume yes since hotspot and RNDIS share the same IP range at the moment.

    Can you put an earlier Ubuntu on a thumb drive and use that is to install, instead of messing your main os about.

    @joolz system-connections should be readonly, and can be overwritten on any update, I think that must reside in a different place

    To add, I tried to install the stock image from Android -- specifically 6.0.1 (M4B30Z, Dec 2016), found here, which gave some errors and failed to fully install (though it did change the look of the bootloader.) I still was stuck with the UBports Recovery program. So, I looked around and found the TWRP recovery program for hammerhead (Nexus 5 codename) and successfully installed that. I used it to wipe and format the drive, since all my previous attempts at installations (of either Ubuntu Touch or Android or LineageOS) failed. Then, I tried once again to install LineageOS, by transferring the file to the phone (see code below) and then using TWRP to install it. This worked. mark@debian:~/Downloads/Nexus5/LineageOS$ adb push lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hammerhead.zip /sdcard/. lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hamme... 4.4 MB/s (329881284 bytes in 71.197s) I must say that the UBports recovery program needs improvement. It's far inferior to the TWRP recovery program. Anyway, my issue is solved. I can now reinstall Ubuntu Touch. [edit] I did reinstall it. So, I'm good to go.

    @Flohack Thanks, I knew about zoom not working since it's mentioned somewhere on the UBports website, but I wasn't aware of the flash issue.

    Nexus 4 hardware does not support OTG. The OS is irrelevant. For wireless keyboard/mouse you need to use Bluetooth devices. You also cannot use OTG and Slimport simultaneously, on micro-USB devices that support Slimport.

    @advocatux : thank you. I finally managed to install android on the phone with your help. Unfortunately, the touchscreen keeps working bad with Android. I will ask a refund to aliexpress seller. Have a nice day.

    @advocatux said in No WiFi on Fairphone 2.: @Opolork have you tried to clean the System Settings cache using UT Tweak tool for example? There was this bug https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/703 but it should be fixed. Also, take a look to https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/168 Cheers, advocatux. The part, 'Settings > Battery > Toggle WiFi' did the trick.
