    @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

    TEXStudio is working in Libertine! The generation of sample documents went well. Tested on channel 24.04/daily on Fairphone 4. RAM usage topped at 2.7GB (free -h). Other working things that are often used together with TEXStudio in the same libertine container: inkscape (vector graphics) atril (pdf viewer) thunar (file manager) Other; mousepad (text editor) parole (music) Not working as well out of the box: emacs gedit leafpad (usable, complaining about wayland) Observations xfce software tends to work with libertine. Some windows get a window title bar that I didn't figure out how to get rid of. Some apps in libertine are in bright mode. Maybe there is a way to add dark mode theme to a libertine container. A libertine container can say you need to run dpkg --configure -a as root to fix an installation gone wrong. How to become root in a libertine container is not straight forward. su - not working. su phablet not working. libertine-container-manager exec -i noble -c "/bin/bash" and then fakeroot seems to work.

    @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

    I figured out a way to do a manual install using TWRP of an old version of UBPorts, then I can use the UBPorts installer on a phone that has UBPorts on it already. So I do not need to try building from source and doing these things. Marked as solved. I put the steps I took in the OnePlus specific forum instead of the general support area. If on the off chance anybody actually knows how to use this script, I would like to hear about it. Feel free to put the information out there.

    You can also flash through fastboot using the bat files (windows) or sh files (Linux) as below: [image: 1707558719913-nomiflashfastboot.jpg] In this case unzip the zipped image to your folder containing ADB and Fastboot, open a command prompt and run it from there.

    @arubislander Weird, I got the image at https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinephone-systemimage/ linked from https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/pinephone and it's the latest artifact. I did come across the proper link, but couldn't flash it because it was a .raw, so I disregarded it, didn't know you had to rename it. So glad I didn't spend another day going mad over this. It's working now! Thank you so muchhhhhhh!

    Fastboot should normally be available all the time. As already mentioned, UT is not locking anything so you should really be able to boot to fastboot and it is very weird that you can not. Other than that, the first Google result for stock rom gave me this: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/lavender/ which is the site I normally install stock roms for Xiaomi devices (works on Linux too). But basically (and while I know little about it) I believe you need to have either adb or fastboot working. It is really hard to help you not knowing more information. I don't know how deep we should go. E.g. How are you trying to access fastboot? Doesn't the usual key combination (probably volume down + power button) work?

    @Keneda Thanks! I found a script on: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1012/one-method-to-encrypt-home-phablet/33, which I will continue to pursue. But I haven't found any newer instructions yet. Since this is a solution almost 3 years old, I thought that there might be newer options, which may have been implemented in the operating system or created as an app. If anyone is using LUKS encryption, it would be helpful if someone would like to share it here.

    A command I've found which changes the authentication method from the command line is: /usr/share/ofono/scripts/set-context-property 1 AuthenticationMethod pap The number may vary depending on which order the APNs are displayed in /usr/share/ofono/scripts/list-contexts.

    @arubislander said in How to change the password of a system account?: I think the main issue is that your token gets invalidated because of the password change. Did you use your actual account password? What if you create an application password in Nextcloud and use that instead? EDIT: I can confirm that if you add the account using an application password, then changing the account password has no effect on the token, and you continue to be able to access the server from both Ghostcloud and UBSync. This is a good idea! I did not think of that. I will try this too, thank you! EDIT: App password works, this is the way! I'll just trust it will still work when I change the user PW. XD

    @contiomega For RMA you can send it to another country by post they have instructions for it. For BROM mode, there are some guides in the internet for unlocking it (or something like https://www.hovatek.com/blog/how-to-force-a-mediatek-device-into-brom-mode/), but I hadn't heard that it can be locked before.
