    @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.

    Just an update, I gave up on trying the KDEConnect workaround. I did some deep investigation on resolving the issue within Waydroid itself, and documented my progress. It's definitely a feature-request in Waydroid. https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/211 I haven't done any more work on it for a while, since my last post on github. There are a few libs being used in Waydroid, which I linked to, which have sparse documentation. I don't have deep enough knowledge of these languages and platforms to be able to fix this easily - not to mention android's workflow for builds. Wasn't able to do a build of LineageOS on my PC; some incompatibility with package versions. It'd be nice to resolve this for everybody who uses Waydroid, but IRL is taking priority for now.

    Got the answer via the Telegram group. It's the desktop root password it's looking for. Doh! I kept thinking it was a password for the phone it needed.

    @ubuntu_guy Well, your problem sounds the same like I had with my M10 FHD. I got a workaround from Marius Gripsgard. I wrote here, how I did it: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/263/can-t-get-the-m10-fhd-to-take-the-flash/3 Some people saying, that my hardware is damaged, but how come, that so many peoples hardware is damaged the same? Just leave a comment below my howto, if this was successful for you. So I can see, how many people encounter the same problem. Thanks.. On my device, I have the problem, that the WiFi password will not be stored. I have to reenter it every time I reboot and connecting to the same router. I am not sure, if this comes together with that issue. What is your experience?

    Thanks for info. Erased and reset all. Now have clean version (r8) and yes its working again. Just installed r9 and all still seems OK. Might just have been a conflict between the updates.

    Best thing is you rsync /home/phablet to an sd card or to a server with ssh installed. Dont Use /* as there are important .files that need to be saved. Use rsync /home/phablet/ target/ and vice versa.

    Wow cool page! Didnt know that thingie exists, nice idea! For qour question, no idea what would be necessary. But probably we will have a hard time for adding new features to the current browser. Eventually it will get replaced, but this oxide browser is not continued by Canonical and we got no resources to deal with it - at the moment. BR

    Yes, I've been reading some code, need some time. I hope I could help. date/time is at default value (year 1970) on every boot.(if offline). https://github.com/ubports/ubports-touch/issues/5 (fixed ?) battery meter shows half of actual charge, (50% = 100%, 40% = 80%, etc). https://github.com/ubports/ubports-touch/issues/6 strange display issue: only wake up if power button is pressed 3 times. https://github.com/ubports/ubports-touch/issues/65 can't play any videos using media player. https://github.com/ubports/ubports-touch/issues/7

    @Bastos KeePit, which is in the official store, is another app for kdbx databases. Unfortunately it hasn't been moved to the openstore yet. I'll contact the developer.

    Please NOTE that not all applications can work with the sd-card. I.e. the camera app has a feature for that, but I got frequent crashes with selecting external storage for pictures. This is maybe fixed in the current versions however. BR
