    Hi Zaito, so sorry for delay, I have only just logged on in ages. I tested it on GS5 only - installed UT 24.04 because it was the only way to make phonecalls when 3g packed up. Nothing I did enabled Waydroid to persist. Meaning that if waydroid was closed for any reason, you couldn't reboot it without a completely fresh installation. This rectified in June with a new UT update. Everything works well in both UT and Waydroid with one exception; there is no clipboard on waydroid. Which means you cannot copy or paste anything in any circumstances. If I need waydroid copy facilities I have to use another phone running UT20.04. Hope all is well.

    @stropbu Just quit tested on my N5 and i can confirm i have issues with its camera. No all quite the same as you but there are. I have the rear camera working (preview and photos taken), but once, after manual focusing on a very bright part of my tv screen, app control just vanished. On front camera, preview is reverted, but photo that outputs is in right orientation (edit : just tested on my MX4, same behavior on front camera, maybe it's intended ?) Also i have what you describes, manual focusing with front camera just make buttons not working for some loooong seconds after focusing finished (capture button color stays gray instead of white during that time). Did not tested in OTA-23 and previous as it is my spare phone.

    @noelflantier The discussion is old, and the problem not solved. Thank you for your great LightP Word Processor and we are very happy about it. We will test on our Pinephone with Ubports. We suffer since longer time that there is no office software which has a community on Linux phones which is happy about it. User reported that everything works with Libre Office on the Pinephone, but it is terribly laggish. Softmaker has their special application for Android. Maybe it works in an Anbox. But is Anbox not just Android on a Ubports, with the same disadvantages Android has? Someone reported to use AbiWord and Gnumeric instead of LibreOffice on the Pinephone.

    @gandalf Best action for now is to log a feature request in the repo I think QR reading also needa to imrpove in UT. Apps that has it don't read QR codes that well. There's a built in QR code reader in focal though so maybe it'll improve. Apps can also maybe use it to scan codes instead of implementing within the app.

    @mindpear You can clear (installed) applications caches (and eventually datas and configs) using Ubuntu Touch Tweak Tool. To be done before uninstalling any app.

    @lsitongia : You're welcome! I'm not a developer, so I can't say if anything is by design, or why it is like this. Anyway, it's cool to have a way to add an address by clicking. It prevents making typos and sending mail to an unintended recipient

    Note that Imdb recently redesigned their site so it's possible it's that too. Webview in UT is just generally not performing well.

    @planner Any reason why, may I ask? It is pretty straightforward using the fastboot command. You need to download a stock ROM and TWRP for OP5T. You need to have ADB and Fastboot drivers installed (I install Android Studio as it has the latest drivers) Power of the phone and wait a couple of minutes. Boot into the bootloader by pressing Volume down and the power button together (when it powers on release the power button) Attach the phone to a PC with a USB cable Open up a command prompt in the fastboot folder (if using Android studio it is the Platform Tools folder) Flash TWRP using the command ./fastboot flash recovery <location of the TWRP image> Once in TWRP go to Wipe and Wipe Data, type in yes Go back to Wipe and choose advanced and tick the Cache and system and slide the button to wipe them In the PC file explorer locate the phone and copy the OP5T stock ROM to the root of the device storage (i.e. NOT in a folder) In TWRP choose install and navigate to the ROM file you copied and install it. If it fails there are other ways to go back to stock... Google is your friend use the XDA-developers forum or the oneplus forums as they have other methods.

    Swipe down from the location detection in the top bar (shaped like a location pin). Note that even if location detection is on, it will only be active when there is an app active that is allowed to use it.

    @arubislander Just to clarify: I don't run any server. I have no network at home apart from the link between my router and my PC and UT phone. The server I was referring to belongs to the commercial email service provider and may be located in another country. I am not absolutely sure that the issue does not appear on my PC. It just happens that I have noticed it on my UT phone. But I think it does not happen on my PC. I am using µAdBlock. But is this a problem?

    @mdl No progress. I contacted T-Mobile to see if they could fix it on their end. They tried but to no avail. I can receive an error message letting me know that someone tried to send an MMS message, but that is it. I cannot participate in group chats, receive large messages, images, etc. Kinda sucks, but it's good enough for me. I hope MMS can get sorted out on UT eventually. I might upload a log if it would actually help the developers solve this issue. Somewhat unrelated, however: I did, find out that the reason I cannot receive calls is because UT (on my Pixel 3a) can seemingly only do SMS I/O and data while on LTE for some reason. While using LTE, I could not make or recieve calls. I also noticed that when trying to call someone, the call would not start dialing for a few seconds, then the service would completely shut off, then my phone would switch to 3G data, then the phone would start dialing. I found that by limiting the data to 3G, I can finally recieve spam calls from the CDC, scammers, and family again! Woohoo! (hope this information helps someone) Should probably file a bug report.

    @mw4jet said in Cannot 'forget' Bluetooth Device: Any idea if and when it's might return? I wouldn't expect it to land in 16.04 anymore. 20.04 is around the corner, and it already contains a much newer Bluetooth stack. The one from 22.04 even, if I am not misremembering.

    @ubuntoutou reinstall using the installer. Boot to the bootloader and install from there. It uses fastboot, not ADB. Fastboot is like a lower level of ADB.

    @mschmids : I guess you're using IMAP? I guess it works then because every change takes place on the mail server. I didn't explain, but I use POP3, which means I'm downloading and storing my emails on my phone. The folders are on my phone, and need to be merged there. So your solution may help others, but in my case it won't solve my issue. Nevertheless thanks for your suggestion! Just edited my original question to include mail protocol. Kind regards, Alter
