Actually while far from ideal, I think you don't get the notification bubble if you turn on Silent Mode. But yeah, that should be a setting.

Thank you for your help

@linuxfanche said in Root information ask: after installing ubuntu touch do i have to unroot my smartphone or leave it like that? Just to avoid all possible confusion: you do not need to root your phone in order to install Ubuntu Touch. You just need to unlock the bootloader, and like @Keneda said: leave it unlocked.

@Chan1234 It is possible to use mainline programms on UT, but it is not recommanded, and not supported by ubports meaning it's up to you to keep your tweaked UT usable and updated, without breaking anything. So yes, if you don't want to spend a lot of time to maintain your system alive, don't do this ^^

Hi @sony, @sony said in Xperia X can not open bootloader: @MrT10001 Yes, we unlocked bootloader and we have status ,,unlocked'' It is not apparent to us where you read the status "unlocked" from, because further down in the post you write you don't know if you are in fastboot mode. What does your device show, check the status via the bootloader, similar to the picture [image: 1690577250538-dc390d95-668d-492e-a18b-1d422a58ce1c-grafik.png] The error message, of the Ubports installer, is strange if the bootloader jam would be "unlocked". And please give us more info about what you have already done, and in what order. Or are you just waiting for us? Greetings Mario

Thanks @kugiigi and @arubislander , caveat noted. As an update for anyone trying to do similar it seems GPS is not working with the App in Focal (so my search for a Focal-based app to record GPS (.gpx) track continues. (See also my other post on "Libertine fails to install a package because of permissions related to the creation of a directory /run/gpsd. How do you fix permission errors related to gpsd?" - https://forums.ubports.com/topic/9175/libertine-app-install-run-and-remove) Here is what happens with Activity Tracker (a Xenial based app running in Focal): • map show API Key Required • clicking on saved activity shows spinning wheel • importing .gpx file shows correctly but clicking on saved activity shows spinning wheel • Recording activities (screen on or off, app on top or background) shows no data for speed and altitude also distance 0. • Map shows whatever you set it to (starts at Trafalgar Sq in London. • Time advances but seems to stop advancing when screen is off (locked). • Ditto for “i” Track Info when looking at gpx track– spinning wheel.

@timofeyshhh Use the MiFlash tool to reinstall stock ROM and DO NOT lock the bootloader. There is a high chance of bricking the device if you so so. My Redmi Note 7 is my main UT device and it works really well on it.

@timofeyshhh Yes, you can reflash a different OS after flashing UT.

@MrT10001 thank you very much!

@deviance The black screen means you are at the bootloader aka in fastboot mode. Used ADB reboot bootloader and then use fastboot devices and it should show it connected. Use Google Chrome Android recovery to install stock ROM, it is the quickest and easiest way.

@kugiigi said in Problem with forum and "about:blank#blocked".: I guess we'll just have to wait for an updated QtWebEngine So i'll have to wait long as i'm on xenial lol.

@Moem Thank you for answer.

@ubuntumale I configured proton VPN without 'VPN editor' app, just with the option of VPN Configuration, in a Volla X Focal . It works.

@anybodybutme Axolotl is in heavy development at the moment, and I don`t think it is yet ready to use. You can have a look in this thread: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/8983/signal-axolotl-status-in-2023/8?_=1689196821357 or inform yourself on the telegram group: https://t.me/axolotl_dev

@TotalSonic said in Wire for messaging: I am the one that posted the current webapp in the Open Store for Wire, but unfortunately I don't have any coding skills, I just used Webapp Creator to link to Wire's web version and to change the user agent to allow logins on the older version (pre-OTA13) of Morph. What the webapp could really use is someone that knows how to work with css to make the page display nicely on phone form factors, as well as someone that can make sure the user agent and cookies are working properly to allow logins to be remembered. It would be really great if Wire could be made to work better with UT - given that they are one of the few encrypted messaging services to provide a web based option seems to me it just needs a good webapp developer to make it happen. I would be glad to contribute to any bounty given towards making it worth the time of a coder for this. Best regards, Steve Berson @magdesign said in Wire for messaging: Hi Steve How hard is it to adjust the css ? I can ask my wife, she is pretty good at it, but where would I find the code to do so. I am still confused on how to create and test webapps for Ubports. BTW, just figured out that the "I need to re-login and it tells me the I am already logged in in another tab" issue comes from wire, since I have the same message in Brave browser on Linux. About a bounty program, I am in with 50.-- Euro (should we make a bounty program in the OpenStore @AppLee said in Wire for messaging: @magdesign said in Wire for messaging: should we make a bounty program in the OpenStore Hi, if I'm correct this idea was answered in an older Q&A. Maintaining such feature within the OpenStore is something we're not ready to do. There are solutions out there, so I guess it will be best to look out for those solutions and see how dev react. You can post the link to those bounties in the forum, but the foundation is not involved in any financial transaction between the community and developers. Good news! Wire Messaging and other webapps that don't work with the standard QtWebEngine-based browsers work with Crimson Browser, which is still in its early stages of development, as it still has buttons that don't work for it to be a daily browser but I am already using it for messaging vs with the Wire UT app which uses the standard Morph. It works and a user doesn't have to re-login just like with Morph-based webapps. Again, it's not yet usable as a browser but for single use I believe one can tolerate.
