    @projectmoon The main problem that currently prevents using Wayland for electron apps, is that the On-Screen-Keyboard cannot work with GTK+Wayland+Mir1.x . By the way the Merezhyvo Browser ( popriatary app ! ) is an electron app using Wayland, but it has found it's way around this problem by coding it's own OSK inside the app itself, which is not really a way I want to go. (Especially for Signal because I want to modify the code only as strictly necessary, and also because for Signal there are other problems when it comes to using it in Wayland mode with Mir1.x). Anyway I've already tried it (see in the Signal UT topic), and reallu the best is to wait for Mir2.x, I hope it won't be in too long.

    While the Fairphone has USB OTG support, its not clear what will happen if you connect it: The mic might not be able to talk with the device if it is not also USB-OTG capable The microphone might be recognized, but then the sound routing will ignore it. It could work for the Ubuntu part, but probably you cannot use it for calls (Android part). BR

    @ukphil you're very welcome. I'm glad you have fixed your issues! Yes, English is a language full of nuances and sometimes is difficult to guess the right word. For example, when you say "you must also accept..." Is that too imposing? Sure, it doesn't sound as hard as "you have to accept also..." but maybe "you should also accept..." sounds more polite? That's why I said it's better to be open minded and assume everybody is here to help, not to offend by default

    Hi @FishFingers44 According to yesterday's Q&A, those of us still on 15.04 developers or RC channels should receive an automatic update within the next week or so... The developers seemed really pleased with the progress they've made on Xenial.

    @zlamalp Indeed, a usefull 'workaround'. This command line avoid to reboot the phone after each switch on if we want to configure again the wifi which doesn't work. Thanks.

    @matteo A lot of people with Pro 5 experience the data connection problem, signal drops, but not wifi. Strange, cos on Flyme is rather stable, so don't really know what's wrong and where.

    @advocatux said in UBports installer under ubuntu 16.04 desktop: First time I read this /hdd/home/sebastian/ it got my attention too. How is your /home mounted exactly? Ah yes. This could be. Have to check with my Admin. Thanks.

    @marathon2422 I suggested to go to the bug tracker because I know developers read it but I don't think they came to the forum usually.

    @mv Hi. For me, BQ AQUARIS E5 HD is a very good phone and very STABLE with 15.04 Ubuntu Touch Ubports OTA 3 Vivid : everything goes virtually good except little bugs. So, as you have flashed your phone with 16.04 UT, can you say what's going well and what's going wrong presently in daily usage ? Especially, are WIFI and HOTSPOT work smoothly on this now Xenial phone or no ? I'm a user and i wants to have a viewpoint before flashing 16.04 my BQ E5 HD, now or much later. Thanks very much.

    @libremax Agreed. I still use my Playbook, great hardware and a really slick operating system based on QNX. UT could learn from its stylish UI design. The file-based photo app is really a joy to use. Problem is the browser is way out of date now and can't handle youtube. I've moved on and I love my UT tablet.

    @lawikekurd there isn't a UT port for that device yet. Some people started to porting to Halium [1], a necessary first step, but it's far from finished. Porting is a very complex and tedious task, as you can see here [2] if you want to know more about it.
