    @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.

    @axenias Flohack's method is easier, you don't need to play with twrp. If you want to install Android, there's no problem, it would be a normal installation. See https://developers.google.com/android/images

    @hummlbach Thanks for your reply. Yes, that is where I found them in the backup and that folder was empty on my phone after the update to rc v13... Another interesting thing was that restoring that folder did not make my notes appear. I had to use a computer and create manually all the notes on evernote.com and then sync my phone with evernote.

    @fishfingers44 generally speaking, all the up to date clicks are in https://open-store.io/ Speaking about Dekko specifically, as it's under heavy development, you need to follow the releases in its repo (https://gitlab.com/dekkan/dekko/tags/) for now

    Unable to read SIM contacts

    Managed to find a workaround. If you restart ofono (sudo initctl restart ofono), the import suddenly starts working. The drawback is that your phone goes offline and you will have to restart to get it back online. The pattern seems to be, that if your SIM is offline, import works. My 2nd SIM is blocked, therefore it stood offline and the import worked on the first try. Unfortunately, switching to flight mode doesn't work, because it simulates a modem with no SIM card.

    @stefano If I try browser next for maps.google.com, the browser doesn't access the gps... But the page doesn't crash - that is promissing.

    I was trying to move a folder from PC (kde neon)to my phablet after updating to ver 170 , I got the,could not write to device message, so I turned on developer mode,and it worked. I usually move items to the downloads folder on phablet,thats when I realized there was not one. I ran the update to ver 172 and looked for the downloads folder, it was not there ( no wipe ). I then made a downloads folder, so a screen shot shows different date on that folder. So a terminal readout is correct,but I made that folder. I am using " skyneels Nvram flashable fix" and reflashing twrp periodcaly,to get away from Wifi,problems. Just trying to see if something slipped thru, I don't think its worth going to github for, seemed strange tho.

    @advocatux thanks, worked. One comment for those who are doing the same thing: don't forget to enable developer mode once you have installed the legacy Ubuntu Touch. Otherwise UBports installer won't detect your device.

    To support ratings/reviews, the code for the server that was used for the old store from Canonical, for this purpose, is I think Open Source, but it would require getting that set up and running somewhere under open-store.io, and then updating the client side to support it. It's a fairly simple API, and there's already code in unity-scope-click which supports the old service.

    Issues with WiFi and Phone keypad on E4.5 (stable channel) [SOLVED]

    @truscellino Yes, it's still happening for me. Tapping the network name again doesn't help the situation. Surprisingly, turning WiFi off and on again doesn't help either (I would have expected this to work). The only solution is to turn airplane mode on and off again or to reboot the phone. I recently changed the channel my router uses and it had no effect on this issue. Good luck with your investigations. I have only one router and no convenient way to test others.

    @Lakotaubp Yes, thank you. Ok, the single update that doesn't want getting installed isn't such a big Problem and I thought with 16.04. there were some issues - but yes, you're right. In this case moving to 16.04. seems to be a good option. So I will give it a try :-). Thanks.... Michael
