    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.

    Yeah Seabass 2 is the best but take note that it's unconfined and it's geared more towards programming/coding. I use it more text editing though

    Where are the contacts from the address book saved in Ubuntu Touch/UBPorts? (Apparently not in contacts.db in the /evolution/ directory -- but where are they?)

    @keneda Thank you! Strangely, I tried it again and it worked. The only thing I did differently this time was to create a small contacts.db (mine is 1.8 MB so I thought that the size might be the problem), move it into the directory and after a restart the contacts were shown. Then I deleted it, moved my 1.8 MB contacts.db into the directory and it worked. I have no idea why. I don't think my antics with the smaller file had anything to do with it. Anyway, thank you: Without your insistence that the contacts are saved in contacts.db I would not have tried it again.

    @tswanshi USB ports have resistors that act as fuses so a USB port should in essence not blow a motherboard. It sounds like the graphics part of the motherboard probably decided to coincidentally give up the ghost. Being a DELL, this is not wholly surprising as the majority of DELL laptops I have repaired usually are overheating due to the bad design of the heatsink and fan and the lack or too much of the thermal compound they use on the CPU and graphics chip.

    @alma The BQ Aquaris M10HD is very old and nigh on impossible to get hold of. If you want a tablet, look at the Lenovo M10 X605F/L. However I would look at a phone over a tablet as all devices have their quirks and find one with the easiest experience to begin with. The Pixel 3a springs to mind or a Oneplus 5 or 5T.

    @redxxiii said in Lately, I've noticed both the Morph & Sapot web browsers keep quitting.: @opolork i did a wipe installation with my fp2 but nothing changed... That is why I think it is related to the hardware being old. But I can t prove that I think you kinda already proved it.

    @nightmare17726 said in Ubuntu Touch: if not, why not? The answer is generally 'because no one has put in the time and effort to make it happen'. Plus, some devices are simply not suitable for technical reasons. By the way, supported devices are listed here. Your 'old' Pixel 3a is one of the best options.

    @domubpkm said in history-service attachments: @lduboeuf Ok thanks, I must not have been looking in the right place. Can we install the MR now outside the channels or still wait for modifications ? If yes can you give me the command line please. if you are on devel: sudo ubports-qa install PR_history-service_15 Is the merge request suposed to update what has not been deleted from the old MMS? unfortunately no, a script would be needed . But you know, time.... This will only allow to delete the attachment when you delete a MMS. Thanks again for these clarifications.

    @yk102 and use waydroid stop in the helper to fix the issues of it not restarting. Your issue with sudo is most likely you have to remount the / partition as rw because system files are not modifyable by default on UT - but not only (unless you make a daemon in upstart) you'll have to do this each restart, but also next update would wipe these scripts and permission changes
