    The issue was me not having a screen lock passcode defined. Not sure if this is the best way to approach this, a settings page for editing user information (including name and root password) would be useful, that one could then opt out for the screenlock.

    @augi Welcome to the forums. You can, but it would mean remounting the root filesystem read/write, modifying your /etc/hosts file and then remounting the root filesystem read-only again. Also your changes might be overwritten / reverted when you update the OS via the Settings (never use apt unless you know what you are doing) The uAddBlock app in the OpenStore works in this way.

    Issue flashing Ubuntu Touch on my OnePlus 6T, phone bricked

    @YangTegap if it is stuck at the bootloader unlocked screen, all is not lost. It looks like you were not on the correct Stock ROM. The device has to be on Android 9 for UT to install. Go to XDA- developers forum and search for the correct ROM and you can flash it through fastboot. If the device sticks at dm-verity, it usually means the battery is on its way out. Link to XDA forum here. Flash back to Android 9 and set it up, then start the UT install again.

    Thank you both. I've figured out what the issue is. The Installer for MacOS has been compiled for Intel processors. It does not work with the new M1 chip. Either due to incompatibility with the new chip, or Rosetta is unable to work via USB Debugging/ADB for some reason. When I tried to install using an old Macbook Air with an Intel processor, then the installation worked.

    @djjonas13 said in Vaio TL10: Estou querendo colocar em um Tablet Vaio TL10, o Ubuntu Touch, ele suporta? "I want to put Ubuntu Touch on a Vaio TL10 Tablet, does it support it?" No, that is not a supported device. You can see which devices are supported on the device page. And please post in English in these forums, because that is the language that is spoken here. Thank you!

    @s710 I downloaded the Whattsapp Web app from the online OpenStore using Morph to find and download it. I then installed it on my OP6 UBports (20.04) phone. It works after a fashion, it has not been updated for a while (April 23). It is hard to get it to adapt to the phone screen. I would probably work on a "as necessary" basis....but not really suitable for regular daily use - that is just my opinion and I have only tried it on my phone.....but it does actually work.

    @PublicLewdness If you have got to Recovery, erase (format) the DATA partition and try again. It is common to say the device is unsupported in the Installer if you have the device at Fastboot. Just manually select it from the devices drop down box.

    @DPITTI Yes miatoll support wireless display on the devel channel as I pointed out in my first replay. This feature was implemented about month ago on the focal port. It is also available on the xenial port from long time.

    @domubpkm Hmmm... that's unfortunate. Though under Xenial (on my Nexus 5), i at least received a notification error. So i knew someone tried to send me something. The problem now is i don't even get an error. So I won't ever know that a group message was ever attempted. And i can't ask the sender to send individually if i don't know that they've tried to send me something. So this is a bit of a pickle... Hmmmm. -Fizz

    @Dunbrokin Seems like, as with your OP1 a reflash with the installer is warranted.

    Bluetooth audio pairing to car questions

    Thanks for the replies. Bluetooth does work, it's just a matter of whether i can get regular system sounds from UT (for example, the Clock alarm) to work while connected to Bluetooth. Getting Bluetooth phone audio to work seems to require both HFP and A2DP to be enabled. But doing so seems to force linux to try to send ALL sounds to the car, but only the phone sounds are being heard. To continue my example- when the UT Clock alarm goes off, there is no noise- neither from the phone or through the car. I realize there is the car side to consider too, which is beyond the purview of the help boards. But i was hopefull someone had some idea of how to resolve it. -Fizz

    @Fizz That is an interesting way of going about it. But I guess it works. In general though, changing ownership / permissions of system files is not recommended, so be sure to change them back to what they were when you are done editing them.

    @lduboeuf Thanks for your new project. Well personally, in normal use, I generally completely turn off cellular data and activate it when necessary. I don't know how difficult it can be to develop, but I imagine an option that automatically turns on cellular data in case of one or more open apps or web-apps using it, and automatically turns off cellular data when apps or web-apps that used cellular data are all closed...

    @messayisto You are welcome. I forked off our thread from the main one to make it easier for the hosts to find the questions they might want to answer. I hope you don't mind. But concerning your original question, the missing Notes app for Focal in the Open Store is a bug that is being looked into as I write this.
