    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    I tried to enter command in the terminal: sudo snap install libreoffice. It installed. This version of LibreOffice seems to work better than the libertine version I described above. Some dialogs end up partially outside the monitor in desktop mode, but it is indeed usable.

    @Sentinel Hi All, I'm just now running the install from within the waydroid helper app. Back on the stable OS it shows me that the dowload speed is around 200KB/s, the is about 900MB to download. So yes, a verry slow connection for this app... EJ

    @uzanto said in Playing a live stream mmsh://media.enet.cu/radioreloj: I test it and you are able to play that installing mpv from terminal emulator I use it to play youtube audio with mps-youtube. What do you mean exactly with 'installing mpv from ...'? Have you set your device writeable?

    @UKPhil Thanks for your answer. As i said, on dev mode, now we are in 51, i don't have the double boot. But it was a strange bug in rc because sometimes i had double boot, sometime simple boot !! I'm no sure of the raison but since i manage to fully desinstall (i was in dev 50) indicator torch that don't work on bq 4.5, everything seems ok. But i stay in dev.. and wait the last stable ota. I don't have long time boot on my m10, i am on RC.

    Thank you! I googled the dial string for my provider www.Fonic.de (which is a O2 company here in Germany) and one has to dial (put a * symbol for any word 'star'): star star 61 star 333 star star nn# (with possible value for nn: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30). And it worked, 15 was the default.

    @Flohack If you don't know there is not much chance of me knowing I knew my way around programing (machine code) the old Sinclair ZX81 but other than maintaining a basic website or two over the years and keeping our linux computers at home updated and working I've let that side of my knowledge get very rusty in the intervening 35+ years. I really appreciate the effort you folks are putting into maintaining and developing this OS. I use my phone daily and hope, when it finally gets too old, that there will be a good open source OS to run on my next one. Preferably UBPorts.

    @vadrian89 It has to do with a couple of things as far as I know. The size and colour of the circle has to do with the amount and also time it happened. Last month is calculated as well.

    After several unsuccessful tries I have installed TWRP. Wiped the device. Then installed "recovery-turbo" again.

    @Lakota Had a good look at bug reports and looks like waiting for 16.04 to get this fixed. The fix should come for nexus 5 but understandably not top priority at present.

    @viper do you mean that you are trying to use the screencast option of magic-device-tool? I have not used it myself but it looks like you need to have set up a public key for ssh for it to work. Here's the explanation of how it works from Github "This tool will start ssh on your connected Ubuntu Touch device, forward a local port to the device, copy your ssh id down to the device (so you can log in without a password), and then ssh into the device through the locally forwarded port. This results in a very nice shell, which for example can display the output of 'top' at the correct terminal size, rather than being stuck at 80x25 like 'adb shell' Like ssh-copy-id, this script will push down the newest ssh key it can find in ~/.ssh/*.pub, so if you find the wrong key being pushed down, simply use 'touch' to make your desired key the newest one, and then this script will find it. The '--copy' option will make it copy your .bashrc down to the device, giving you the benefit of preserving your $PS1 (prompt) and any aliases and functions you may have defined on your host system. " Here's some documentation on setting up SSH/OpenSSH/Keys from Ubuntu. I hope that this helps.

    Oh boy it was not a nice feeling, when after install on a new FP2, which ubports-installer claimed to be "done", the system ended up with blue screen and was stuck in a boot loop. Although, finding this thread and switching to rc channel helped. Few... Still https://ubports.com/page/ubuntu-fairphone-2 needs update for two reasons: Number one is mentioned above At least new camera module does not work, see relevant issue in a bug tracker.
