    @arubislander For sure! There is no foolproof solution when running applications that are sensitive to device security outside of their intended environment, especially not in an emulated environment! (Having alternative operating systems and/or backup phones ready to go is always a plus)

    @Phil-UK Dekko never stopped being developed or supported. Just the old code base was deprecated.

    @Marathon2422 I already read from a lot of people, that they having the same problem. I also tried to contact BQ and they answer me: ================================= try this one: https://devices.ubports.com/#/frieza With your WiFi, erase the search and turn of your router. Afterwards search again. Change the channels and WPS. Try to reset the tablet, that will help most of the time. ================================= I wrote back, that this is not the problem, but no response anymore.

    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
