    @hlbkv gnome software can handle debs and flatpaks (and on Ubuntu also snaps I think). The app itself is a deb, so it is not surprising that it can be installed. The apps that end up being able to be installed with it are probably also debs.

    @bamboy360 said in Elevate Push Notifications from WayDroid to UT?: Someone there mentioned using KDEConnect as a workaround. I might look into that next. I suspect this was aimed primarily at desktop Linux, although any mobile Linux where KDE/GConnect shows notifications would work as well. Unfortunately, at the moment UT is not one of those where it would work out of the box. But feel free to experiment, maybe you can make it work.

    @arubislander thank you for your answer. I've tested and you're right, secret chats can only be created by the other side but they are working fine then. Thanks!

    @pzrnqt1vrss That port s marked as inactive and very little info is avialable https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/santoni/ so can only guess this has not been sorted yet. I would try to contact the porter for advice.

    @dwaret said in Xiaomi Redmi 4X boot loop: Now it's just stuck on the bootup screen the only thing I can access is fastboot I can't even get to recovery mode even if I used ADB to reboot into recovery it just stuck on the mi logo That's actually PERFECT! Fastboot means you can flash the Stock Xiaomi Android ROM and have a working phone again! Just use their official tool to do so : https://c.mi.com/in/miuidownload/detail?guide=2 But please make sure you flash the latest Stock Xiaomi Android ROM that's needed as the base version in order to be able to flash Ubuntu Touch afterwards!

    @arubislander Yes. I don't know why. Maybe the ~ symbol is not allowed with sudo and one has to use $HOME, or I made some other mistake. Anyway your command line works, I learned something useful, even if my basic problem is not solved: I restored the original file.

    @metty I haven't gotten that far, and I'm not yet able to use my passwords with Unix Pass on my Ubuntu Touch device, which currently forces me to always have two phones with me. Is there something I am doing wrong? I was able to initialize the program with pass, but I can't generate and save passwords. Its generating one but the list remains empty. Among many 'libtls-padding.so' errors. @stanwood You write: It is strongly not recommended to use apt to install software. (as it won't work and may brick your device) But back to the main topic. How do I do it? Even if it may brick my device. Better than no device. That would be the case if a such a simple thing like pass do not work on a ubuntu-phone.

    @cjengle Maybe something went wrong with your manipulations. Don't know where... Best thing is to reinstall UT without wipe your data. Then start again to remove Anbox as I described above.

    Your expectations are not matching the reality I am afraid... I think you are better off with one of the following options : Replace the screen yourself and keep the repaircosts low that way. Look for another OS to run on the phone like for example PostmarketOS/Mobian/etc.

    @tmsteph said in Hey ppl I can't get into recovery mode. Only Fastboot.: This is how the phone is showing up in device manager.... [image: 1639719606763-1087a78e-8134-4c6e-bda1-73f76bd09993-image.png] This usually means your EDL Mode Driver isn't the right one and you should install the correct one! Did the version of the Qualcomm Tool you posted did that for you too ??

    @lsitongia OK that is some progress, with the PRODATA for Internet APN entry. There are some MMS patches getting made as we speak, they are being targeted for OTA-21. Again, the ofono 28 linked above for a "combined APN" (for "Internet + MMS") isn't quite ready but will further improve things when it gets in: I am currently using it and it works well (I can get MMS on 3G now, couldn't before with separate APN for MMS and Internet), but it will reset APN entries often (so I needed to edit the "defaults" so when they are deleted and reset they are still correct) so there are some bugs / blockers. Defaults come from /usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml

    @yamanobe You always need to prepare the phone since every phone is different when it comes to unlocking for example! Also : No Developer Mode = No ADB either!

    @applee I agree with the things you are saying, except for the first part : Learning to fix your car for example is something totally different than beeing a developer! But now that you mention it : I am actually considering having another go at it somewhere in the future... I tried in the past and horribly failed! :grinning_squinting_face:

    Please refer to https://forums.ubports.com/post/57619 I just noticed an update in Open Store. The same update shows in System Settings -> Updates. I updated the app via System Settings and it updated fine and shows in the System Settings history. [image: 1639484439629-screenshot20211214_100300079.resized.png]

    @domubpkm IIRC it missed 20 but will be in OTA-21. Currently it is in dev and may have reached RC by now.
