    @Alain This featute isn't in UT/Lomiri yet. Simplest way is to make something like a home screen app and there are some that exists already like Launcher Modular. Not sure they have app groups though. You can contribute to them if you don't want to make your own. However, they obviously act like a normal app. Best you can do is pin it to the Launcher for easy access. Or you can contribute to Lomiri and implement it in the App drawer which definitely needs some love There's even a bounty for it so there's money to get

    Hi Zaito, so sorry for delay, I have only just logged on in ages. I tested it on GS5 only - installed UT 24.04 because it was the only way to make phonecalls when 3g packed up. Nothing I did enabled Waydroid to persist. Meaning that if waydroid was closed for any reason, you couldn't reboot it without a completely fresh installation. This rectified in June with a new UT update. Everything works well in both UT and Waydroid with one exception; there is no clipboard on waydroid. Which means you cannot copy or paste anything in any circumstances. If I need waydroid copy facilities I have to use another phone running UT20.04. Hope all is well.

    I'm pretty sure that the installer does not touch the partition layout. Remember Android is weird. I wouldn't be surprised if some devices/bootloaders have specific expectations about the partition layout these are embedded devices. If the bootprocess is severly messed up, you can't exactly put the hard disk into that other device and fix the partitions So, while I guess it is possible to make cache smaller, I am not gonna try on my device and I'd caution you to do so! Now to the aspect of "I'm running out of space" due to tinkering with libertine, ... well you still have some 6GB to through around, not huge, but not nothing either. If you run out of space, rather than doing acrobatics with partition sizes you want to look into acrobatics with bind mounting

    You could try and if it works document it here https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/libertine.html I'd also try first with a symlink, but if that gives any problems, I would assume a bind mount should work. but then you have the additional challenge of having to reestablish the mount after every reboot. maybe it can be automated with upstart.

    Failed to install Ubuntu Touch on Nexus 5

    Hey, I had the same problem (Nexus 5) and I think I know what is the cause for this problem. It is the same as @Bash-Horatio specified. The device has two identifiers: Google Android [0100] LGE Nexus 5[0232] Now, whenever the device is on fastboot it is identified as Google Android [0100] but when it moves to Recovery mode it is identified as LGE Nexus 5[0232]. Seems like the script is loosing the connection to Google Android [0100] right when the device is going to recovery mode. So, under VirtualBox you should go to Machine -> settings -> Ports -> USB. Check to "ON" the "Enable USB Controller" and "USB 1.1 (OHCI) Controller". On the right, there are small blue usb icons to add/remove usb filters. You should add two filters for each device identifier (i.e. Google Android [0100] and LGE Nexus 5[0232]). How? Connect the device when it is NOT in fasboot and add a usb filter (should be LGE Nexus 5[0232]). After having this filter switch your device to fastboot and then add a new filter (should be Google Android [0100]). Once you have two usb filters you can run the ubports. For non-VirtualBox I would say that you should disconnect / connect the device when ever your phone switched to Recovery Mode so the script will recognize the device with its new identifier (LGE Nexus 5[0232]). for me it worked fine after few hours of frustration... Hope it will help. A'aron

    Just thought I would mention that I was eventually able to test out Hangouts video calling though the browser, and everything works, so a big thanks to all. I suspect a reboot did the trick.

    Gallery app: problem with albums feature

    @hummlbach Just visited the link you suggested and was astounded by the by the complexity of the vision for the future of Gallery. It seems very ambitious and may take a great deal of effort to make it work reliably. I'm coming at this from my experience of using the Blackberry Playbook. The user interface is very smart and well thought out. The photo app is folders based which is very convenient for dealing with holiday and other event photos. I only resorted to the use of Albums on Ubuntu Touch as a workaround for the lack of a folders capability. I don't need flikr and face book etc. Maybe a good approach would be two separate apps: a simple photo app à la Blackberry for ordinary folk and a full blown gallery app for power users. This would have the advantage that the simple app could hopefully be realised as a subset of the pro version in the near term and then incrementally enhanced in the longer term.

    Thanks for your help. I got help in the Fairphone forum. I had to start the app in Linux with the sudo command in the terminal app. I recommend to update the installation instructions for UBPorts.

    @jérèm Right ok, Yes its Ubuntu touch first with SP Flash Tool. Please follow the instructions carefully, they are straight forward I did it with little tech know how but it can brick the phone. Then its UBports using the installer or which ever method works for you. Any issues just pop back. It is worth it when its done.
