    @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.

    @advocatux Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I do believe the issue may be related, and I will likely add my part to the github comment chain.

    @jezek Hi, I think a switch to stable and back to rc should solve your problem. You can also use the ubports installer without wipe. (the Windows method)

    @malditobastardo said in Accessing network share for media: Maybe this could help you: http://kriscode.blogspot.com/2017/12/ssh-and-ubuntu-touch.html I glanced through the pages. They are based on the idea to make the UT device's partition writable. This might be a typical "hacking around style" of doing things, but is not appropriate for our devices here. Just my $0.02 pesos cubanos.

    I managed to order one from ebay, but unfortunately it's not the one. It's 9147C instead of 9146C. It was written for BQ M10 FHD. I guess there is a new one as well. I tried it nevertheless, but it's not the right one. It a bit to wide on one side. So for now, I'm without a media to test/use ubuntu touch If someone will find a spare connection cable, let me know. Until then I'll be a passive observer. Cheers

    When you uninstall an Android app (that removes the app in the android container), the corresponding Ubuntu Touch icon on the app scope will still be there and needs to be removed manually (for now?). Those are stored in /home/phablet/.local/share/applications/ and IIRC all Android apps starter files begin with anbox (or was it android or apk?; you'll get it once you see it ).

    @haveaniceday said in Encryption and vpn: What do you think? Do you know how we can receive a passphrase during boot time via user interaction? PostmarketOS uses OSK-SDL to accept encryption password input on touchscreen devices during startup. If you're good with C++, you might have a look at the code on Gitlab. I'm still slowly working my way back into coding after many years of only scripting and am sadly not up to the challenge of seeing how that could be integrated to the Ubuntu Touch boot process. Bear in mind that even if you can unlock a crypt on startup, integrating this into the UBPorts installer is going to be another large challenge. @haveaniceday said in Encryption and vpn: Maybe those files are what you are looking for: https://github.com/ubports/unity8/blob/xenial/qml/Components/PinLockscreen.qml https://github.com/ubports/unity8/blob/xenial/qml/Components/Lockscreen.qml Thanks, I'll take a look. Maybe it's not too hard to integrate a counter there and link to a shutdown or nuke script.

    Please dont touch the bootloader, this will brick your device for sure - the splash screen is in a separate partition for all devices I know, so that should never need to touch the bootloader itself.
