    @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.

    @kugiigi I don't think it does. There are desktop actions defined in the morph-browser.desktop file, but they are nevertheless not shown.

    @jelkner I would rather have you working with us on the problem if you like. It might be some insights for you in how UT works, and for us an opportunity to recruit a new community contributor Would you mind bringing one of the OPOs back to Android, to see whats the MAC address there? We definitely need to find out where Android gets it from. Also for Bluetooth, see this bug: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/955

    @lakotaubp Thank you for tips, I finally got it to come back on. After trying a bunch of things, what ended up working was plugging it in to my computer at work, I left it plugged in for a few hours, hit the power button and it showed the battery icon, almost fell out of my chair, held the button and it fired right up. Not sure why, but it's on and working again so I'm happy.

    The negative tone starts at your post title ("a sad story") and then continues. What it's "a clear picture" for you, maybe other people see it just as a grumbling because you're using some adjectives that are not really necessary to describe a technical problem. Anyway, it's way better to fill an issue, that's true.

    If anything else fail, try to install with good old '' ubuntu-device-flash '' tool. It worked for me as a last stance, when everything else would just not work.

    I think it's time to debug and nail this down. I found the file /etc/init/wpasupplicant.conf which spawns the WPA daemon as: exec /sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -s -O /run/wpa_supplicant I will mount the /root in this test device writeable and change the line to: exec /sbin/wpa_supplicant -dd -u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log -O /run/wpa_supplicant to gather the debugging output in a file. Update: It's not necessary to mount /root writable. The proc init starts and re spawns that proc when it dies. With a bit of luck you can fire up these three lines from a shell script and get your version of WPA up before init can restart its own: #!/bin/sh pkill -9 -f '/sbin/wpa_supplicant.*' wpa_supplicant -dd -u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log -B -O /run/wpa_supplicant exit The lines in the log files look promising...

    I can confirm that setting up a DavMail in server mode & using it as a caldav gateway to exchange works fine I've tried it on an f-droid only version of Android without Exchange provider Only tried caldav but no doubt the other gateways DavMail provides would work too If it works on android, no reason why it wouldn't work for UBPorts It'd be nice to have it on-device though, maybe DavMail could be repackaged in some way to provide the required Dav gateways to Exchange I know it's java based though, so might be too heavy to run in the background on a mobile device But it's a thought

    I've done the following steps and it seems to work for me: Charge the phone to 100% until there no charge indicator left Boot the phone to bootmenu (where you can select recovery, fastboot, etc.) Leave the phone in this bootmenu until the battery is empty (in my case this took 8-9 hours) Charge the phone until there is no charge indicator left After these steps my E4.5 lasts almost as long as it was new and the percentage shown in the power-management shows the correct values again. I hope this is a long-term solution.

    @gucu No sorry your device is not supported this is the current list of supported devices https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ Due to the nature of Ubuntu Touch each device has to be ported separately and takes a lot of work and effort. There should be other device available later in the year but no clear time scale yet.
