    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.

    Waydroid might give some alternative apps if that's an option for you. Also not quite what you are asking for but Waydroid had made it possible to run a Bitcoin Lightning wallet on Ubuntu Touch. I've used the Blue Wallet app to make Lightning instant payments via scanning 3D barcodes rather than NFC. Not a mainstream way to pay yet but there are signs it will take off in the USA this year due to virtually no merchant fees.

    Ok, it was much easier than I believed. I just had to query the contacts.db (I used DB Browser for SQLite) as select vcard from folder_id;. select all results, copy and paste them into a text file and save this file as contacts.vcf. open this file in Android, confirming that contacts need to be imported.

    @subarubrat said in SIM seems OK, but unable to call/data (SMS works): I was just surprised because EVERYTHING indicated it worked, which was true until just now. Everything still works in countries where VoLTE is not mandatory (EU for example).

    @amy It is usually the cable, but also try a USB 2.0 port, not USB 3. Another thing I encountered is old fastboot drivers. I always install Android Studio and keep it up to date as it's Platform Tools has the latest ADB and fastboot drivers.

    It does have a use. If you are watching a video in full screen through morph or in media player you can use it to access the top bar to see what the time is or what your new notification is.

    @keneda no, not a fork, necessarily. I think the OP means just downloading the source and compiling it.

    @keneda That sounds interesting, I'll think about it if I get an a/b slots device in the future. For now I think I will use a regular single boot to keep things simple.

    @arubislander Thanks for sharing your experience. The reason why it does not work for me is simple since I don t have a Ubports phone available. I stuck in the process of unlocking the bootloader of a Xiaomi phone and it was very difficult, and I don t know whether it is worth to continue. I have now also a Fairphone 3 available which hopefully is easer. I have listed the options which I know which are possible to connect a phone to a PC on my personal website: for Ubports phones: https://petergamma.org/file-access-from-pc-to-ubports-linux-phone/ for (Ubports) PinePhones: https://petergamma.org/file-access-from-pc-to-linux-pinephone/ Thanks for sharing these information. To connect a Linux phone to a PC with a network shared folder or to connect a phone SD card as a network drive to a Windows or Ubuntu Desktop network the same way it works on a PC would be highly desirable. But I am happy to know what is possible.

    @loboturbo Hi, I read from notes that we need android 9.0 and installed the official release from India rom sites. The process still did not work for me when I used the android 9 version of stock MIUI rom and I would get the same result as you. Eventually what worked for me: used TWRP Flashed Android rom version 9.9.3 (I read that the maintainer had tested on 9.9.3) Then used the latest UBports installer version 0.9.x beta After repeated failure to install from the stable channel I chose to install the RC version and that worked After installation I tried to update the OS from phone settings using the stable channel but that would not boot and I had to reinstall from RC channel again using the UBports installer. As of now I'm running the RC channel and it seems to be working fine. Sometimes the swipe from right to close the applications starts misbehaving. However lock and unlock of the phone sets it right. Rest of the features at least seem ok. I am able to browse, make calls and use phone messages.
