    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    TEXStudio is working in Libertine! The generation of sample documents went well. Tested on channel 24.04/daily on Fairphone 4. RAM usage topped at 2.7GB (free -h). Other working things that are often used together with TEXStudio in the same libertine container: inkscape (vector graphics) atril (pdf viewer) thunar (file manager) Other; mousepad (text editor) parole (music) Not working as well out of the box: emacs gedit leafpad (usable, complaining about wayland) Observations xfce software tends to work with libertine. Some windows get a window title bar that I didn't figure out how to get rid of. Some apps in libertine are in bright mode. Maybe there is a way to add dark mode theme to a libertine container. A libertine container can say you need to run dpkg --configure -a as root to fix an installation gone wrong. How to become root in a libertine container is not straight forward. su - not working. su phablet not working. libertine-container-manager exec -i noble -c "/bin/bash" and then fakeroot seems to work.

    @Sentinel Hi All, I'm just now running the install from within the waydroid helper app. Back on the stable OS it shows me that the dowload speed is around 200KB/s, the is about 900MB to download. So yes, a verry slow connection for this app... EJ

    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.
