    @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.

    The recent update to OTA 6 has done something that enabled me to have a decent connection to my pebble time watch. However, I am unable to dismiss notifications so it is getting there. I think I must be missing something in the set up.

    I have problems with the wifi on a different phone, a Pro5, since I purchased it and never understood why but I always thought this phone wasn't a lucky one. I'm on 16.04 Devel but it doesn't work regardless of the channel, and on the Vivid image as well. The wifi is working when I reinstate the credentials every time, but it doesn't automatically show up at every reboot, as the Access Point credentials didn't exist before. I read @Flohack reporting about a MAC number problem, so I tried to investigate to see what happens on the phone at reboot. After rebooting, I checked the var/log/syslog and I found a MAC verify failed kernel error. @Osndok, by the chance do you have the same error? Could it be related to the fact that the wifi doesn't work? If of any interest, I provide part of the syslog HERE. Matteo

    In case somebody might have similar issue and settings: I found rndis as solution for any useable inet access at least. Docu here: http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/reverse-tethering.html I had to set link up and give address manually. But jippie, it works. (WiFi stopped working. Was not able to get it working again.) I got inet connection on the phone, but it seems to not use this connection for "fetching channels" - wheel's turning, no traffic seen via tcpdump on the rndis interface of the pc. Still: Some image/packages to download would still be great.

    @drosera_capensis the only option is to try to port that device to Halium, and then try to port it to UT.

    Just in case. My OS is now Ubuntu 16.04 (2018-W50). I could not locate Next anymore, so if it left something to the system then they will stay. Still, that is a small price to pay for convenience.

    Trying to understand how developers are performing their work

    Hello Everyone, While I may appear to be new, I have longed for UT for several years. I just purchased an N5 in excellent virtually unused condition. However, I have concerns. I read here the battery has life has improved in xenial. However, my real need is to understand how developers are performing their work. By this, I suspect a debugger is involved. What are the tools involved in this game? From my perspective, the N5 is certainly suitable to get me in the development game. Older hardware does not bother me. I currently have a 2013 LG Optimus G Pro in perfect condition, I do not tread on my phones, that I would love to begin porting with Halium. However, it makes much more sense for these idealogical goals, or myths to be discussed in the framework of hardware, system architecture, etc., rather than, "I would like to know if my device can be ported." What can you tell me? I am here to learn and to have fun!

    @dobey said in How can a webapp run in sandbox when using Morph browser to display its content?: It does not destroy the profile on exit, no. Why would you want such a behavior? Just to prevent blowing up the webapp profile too much... As a pure reading app, in my eyes there is no need to store any data on the phone. Neither cookies nor anything else (e.g. accepted privacy confirmations).

    @root-ruud You've prompted me to look at the dialer app in more detail! If you swipe up from the bottom edge, it gives you a lot of details about calls: date and duration, incoming/outgoing and to whom, etc.

    @sz If you meant PRO5 , read here those links, should help you. If you meant MX5 , this device was never supported, so no such a thing as UT on it. The most likely your problem is ,,too small cache partition,, (Meizu Pro 5 ) https://forums.ubports.com/topic/665/meizu-pro-5-without-any-os https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1610/meizu-pro-5-16-04-stable-backup-for-restoring-with-twrp https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1252/problems-flashing-ubports-on-meizu-pro-5-android-international-edition http://sturmflut.github.io/

    Battery replacement concerns!

    Yes, I also expect that it is far more likely that a defective battery is to blame, plus the batteries should have protection circuitry built-in anyways. Based so far on what I have read (There is some BAD information out there!), there is some handling of this information by Android, so I will figure it out before I reattempt. The Android batterystats.bin information is surviving the flash into UT somehow, because the battery life is in the ballpark of being similar between an Android and UT system. Or maybe it isn't being preserved and it is part of the reason everyone complains about battery life? It would be interesting to hear a battery replacement success story. A possible solution would be to replace the battery and perform a few discharge cycles under Android before reflashing as it is a very infrequent event. Anyway, I have put the original battery back in, and everything is running smoothly now. I plan on reattempting this in the near future, but I will try to buy a more expensive knock-off this time.
