    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.

    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.

    Use usb_moded_util to switch between USB modes, for example:

    usb_moded_util -c rndis //activates USB Tethering
    usb_moded_util -m //lists supported modes
    usb_moded_util -h //to get help

    @kugiigi I have already tried this. Still doesn't work. I think, it must be forwarded from 3g interface to "local". But I don't know how to do this. (i mean local intarface)

    I want to use a USB sound card with Ubuntu touch ...

    There have been no successful attempts reported to do what you are trying. Something about missing drivers or such. If you have the time and desire to dive into it, you could try.

    My first guess would be to see of the card works on a PC installed with Ubuntu 20.04. And then try to find out what packages provide the necessary parts to get it to work. If it is a built in kernel module, then it might be a dead end for now.

I applied the update, it installed, and rebooted. I have not tested turning off the wifi and retest, sense the update. I tried just now and the text cam through. At least I have a work around now. That's convenient an update was available today. where a few days ago I tried an update and it returned with, there are no updates available. Thank you for the reviews and feedback.

    @Dave a quick check shows that the current server certificate for that site was issued on October 11th and is valid until Jan 2024.

    Could you check if the date and time is set correctly on your family member's device?

    @nibzy26 said in NFS Mount touch phone:

    Gossh this is frustrating

    What is your end aim here? Is it to make some personal customizations or are you looking to contribute these back to the project?

    Because if it is the latter then you might want to start a dialog with the UX Team and increase the probability that your changes will be accepted.

    @Rinkeby Thanks for the answer,

    I am currently struggeling to solve a problem on my Pinephone. I have installed postmarketOS on it and Abiword. But Abiword cannot write to the external SD card. I want to store and edit Abiword files on the external SD card to be able to pull out the SD card from the phone an stick it into my Ubuntu PC:

    I am almost there to do this on my Pinephone, exept that I have not yet the permission to write Abword files on my Ubuntu PC to the SD card with postmarketOS:

    My question is, can I do this with the Voila phone as well? Install Abiword on the external SD card, pull the SD card from the phone, stick it into a Ubuntu PC, to furhter process Abiword files there?

    @iqrajaved ah maybe you ask what component displays them.
    Search for Launcher or Drawer ?.
