    @projectmoon Snaps or direct installation work. No input problems there. But unfortunately then the DPI is so off, that menus are by far too small. The only fix for the DPI related problems, was to install the apps into containers and use libertine-tweak-tools for adjusting the DPI. It's a trade off. Also: not all apps have snap versions.

    @myrcy we have been working in the "North America Carrier Issues" Telegram group and have determined the best (well, only) way to have full service (calls in / out, mms in / out, mobile data) until UT supports VoLTE is to use 2G mode, which has not been shut down by T-Mobile yet.

    @777funk I had the trusty Nexus 5. I agree the brightness level can seem "too" bright when using it in pitch black environment. But I doubt the hardware is able to do less. For tinkering with the brightness on the PinePhone I can tell that Ubuntu Touch gives what it can get from the drivers. So, sorry but I doubt you can have less light expect using a dark theme. Even more so the Nexus 5 has a LCD display, not an OLED one, so backlight is on for the full screen.

    @kugiigi said in Accessing UT system files/folders via PC USB port?: SSH is the best way for transferring files from/to UT and it's so much more. So if anyone's willing to set it up, I highly suggest it That's the route I went with it. Works.

    @777funk said in Linphone Problems: @777funk said in Linphone Problems: @nwl said in Linphone Problems: Dear community, I am using Linphone on Ubuntu touch. It will only call out if i have a contact saved first and it only allows 3 contacts to be saved. I feel like I am missing something huge. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks:) That's all it has for now. Too bad it wasn't just a little more featured (reading from phone contacts, adding (automatically) the @<voip.server info> after a phone number is entered. Also, I do not get incoming rings. But it is a start I suppose! We do have to thank those who invested their time in the project so far. (EDIT: was a problem with a Voip.ms setting. Now rings if phone is open, but not on sleep.) Update. UT Tweak Tool can set Linphone to stay awake. This rings on sleep or even bootup.

    @applee said in choosing a program to open files? ala, right click "open with"??: And regarding your additional question: There are a couple of text editors in the open store if my memory serves me well. Yes there is Tedit for simple usage, or Seabass 2 for lot more than just editing text files.

    @droidfilesystem said in Enable keyboard predictions system wide: most particularly in the browser Not anymore, sadly. Only in messaging app and similar. That was enabled before on browser too, but was deactivated because, as i understood, there were issues with it. Personnally i never had issues with it when working, and enjoyed it pretty much, i miss this since it's gone I hope some day it will be reactivated... @droidfilesystem said in Enable keyboard predictions system wide: Also is there any way to go back to home page or a back button? No there is not any "home" on Ubuntu Touch, only the wallpaper screen when you close all apps. On certain rare phone, most are like mine "legacy" devices where "home" button is active, it opens app drawer. However, there are tow apps on openstore to implement sort of home page, those are "Home" and "Launcher Modular". Test each to make your own opinion

    @rocket2nfinity Yes I did figure that out here in my dedicated Lin thread. Not necessary in Zoiper but it must be there in Linphone. I got it to work after reading more about the Lin app. The more I use Lin though, the more problems I find: -It only allows 3 contacts as far as I can see. I would hate to have to type out number and voip server every time I make a call. -Incoming does not ring -VoIP configuration in setup cannot be saved or modified. You have to start from scratch if you want to change anything. Not a huge deal but a little annoying. -none of the usual additional settings are there (port etc) The actual Lin softphone has a lot more features that for some reason this leaves out. But... it does call out. That is better than nothing. I think a very good softphone is important to UT since standard voice calls are not possible over LTE in the USA. VoIP seems to be the only option if one actually wants to call with the phone.

    @cliffcoggin said in uNav works great but isn't playing Voice commands (no sound from uNav).: @777funk said in uNav works great but isn't playing Voice commands (no sound from uNav).: PureMaps is great. Thanks for mentioning it. I also installed OSM Scout Server and the online maps for the regions I regularly travel. Just that functionality alone is a Google Maps killer for me! Very nice to have offline maps in detail. Glad to hear it. The offline functionality was essential for me, while being invisible to Google was a bonus. Who doesn't like that idea. Lol. I do wonder though since UT uses android in the background and some aspects of the Morph browser look like Chrome and of course in my case the phone itself is a Google Nexus.

    @777funk said in Linphone can't connect: It's looking like Linphone may be the only supported softphone. For some reason it seems to not connect both to my Linphone account and my Voip.ms account. I know it's not a setting issue because yesterday it was connected (green light). Also, Zoiper on android shows connected to the account I'm trying to use. I believe there's an issue with the App. Is there anything I can do to bring it back to life? Must have been some sort of intermittent or random bug because it resolved itself. AND I was able to make a call. For those unfamiliar, with Linphone, its required to put @<insertvoip.servername.here> after the full number. Now if I could solve the phone app not ringing

    @AppLee and @messayisto are correct given the status of the port. It is down to the porter (who do this in their own time) to maintain the port and get it ready so that it can go on the UBports installer. If the device is not on the installer then I am afraid only the porter can help you.
