    I found a "workaround" for now:

    You can get "somewhat" around the sending issue. Type enough so the "Expand Text Box Arrow" is usable (or move you finger around the text box a little (up works very often), for some reason the arrow shows up then too), press it and now you can press the blue send button to the right. It is far FAR from working / good but it works for now. That also allows selecting and then "overwriting" the current text. That can be considered as a "backspace" workaround.

    ALSO: Signal-Desktop uses more battery then it should. It uses a far less if you close it and reopen it and don't open any chats. IDK. why.

    @ds2k5 said in Signal stop working after switch backup Ubuntu and back zu Signal:

    How to setup if close the App
    that the app will closed that I do not need to do it by hand

    Getting Waydroid apps to work more like regular UT apps is still a work-in-progress. For now you probably have to use the work-around you discovered.

    @apost02 I think right now, in 16.04, bluetooth headsets only work for streaming media. The HFP/HSP mode is not supported by the version of pulseaudio in 16.04 with the version of bluez in 16.04. It seems to only support A2DP streaming.

    I don't think there is any way to work around these issues currently. Hopefully we can get newer versions of both included at some point, but it's a fair amount of work.

    Perhaps your issue may be considered a separate bug to this. Please open an issue on https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues if one does not already exist for your problem.

    @ann_droid LineageOS instructions are "boot into fastboot, ensure the bootloader is unlocked, flash the TWRP recovery on, boot into TWRP recovery, copy the LineageOS zip and the gapps zip over if you want that, and then select the zips inside TWRP to flash to the device."

    I don't know what it's telling you to "re-enable USB debugging" for, but whatever it is, is something that assumes you're running Android. You don't need to mess with that.

    It looks like your phone is still pointing at the Canonical system-image server. You will not be able to upgrade or switch channels until you use the UBports Installer to move to a build of Ubuntu Touch from UBports.

    @doniks I'm not lucky !! It was a great expectation but a false hope ! NOT SOLVED !!
    It is always uncertain for good display ! 😂
    Maybe the problem could/should be solved after moving Oxide to Qtwebengine because the problem is linked to Oxide, see issue. Wait.

    Ps : Emojis should go on a low-calorie diet !

    Ah, you are referring to .deb packages. They can be installed using Libertine.
    Those are pretty hit or miss at the moment on Ubuntu Touch, but I guess that is the reason for your post 🙂

    @dobey I have what I would call a very agressive power saving mode on my Pro 5 and yes, it saves the battery but when I unlock the phone it's very slow and there is a lot of lag. I made a script to turn on all the cores of the cpu and I made a desktop icon and I run that manually but I would like that script to be run automatically when I unlock the phone.

    @Thieb you need to enter a package name tapping on "Enter package name or Debian file" button. Also you'd like to start with other package than Firefox because that's broken (upstream bug IIRC).

    @FishFingers44 maybe that cable can be easily fixed? Is it broken or a bad connection?

    @giukas I don't know :(. All I did was that I used some clean alcohol to wipe the SIM card and regarding the slot I've just looked inside if there is something visible that would cause the issue and haven't seen anything. So I just blowed some air there ... and it still wasn't ok since the contact was lost later again so what resolved the issue for me was to push the card into the slot thoroughly ... maybe I haven't had it fully inserted before ... there could have been some dust there that have prevented me to place the card correctly.

    Not sure ... but be careful and try not to destroy the slot it if isn't yet :). Good luck.

    PS. It could also be a SIM card issue. You may want to try another one to see if it works or try this one in a different phone.
