    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.

    @fizz said in not seeing updates?: And my system kept insisting on putting itself on the RC channel even after i put it on the Stable. It's a known issue/behavior. I did this on my device too when switching channel (from OTA-19 testing RC to stable channel, while it was not already there for my device, like if stable was an "empty" channel), even if i have no problem getting update (when it comes to me, and for OTA-21 i was today).

    @emphrath said in run server like linux with UT?: There's also a thread on this forum about someone who managed to somehow link everything he installs to a writable conf file, making the changes effective even after an update, but it doesn't work with everything.

    @lakotaubp its 128 GB, formatted as fat32 (vfat). I haven't gotten the external drives manager to detect the card yet which is a shame. I made two little scripts and placed them in the home directory to mount and unmount the card under /media/phablet/<sdcardlabel>, then run them as needed in terminal (I don't know how to execute bash scripts by touch from file explorer). I also am unsure how to automatically run scripts as root at startup, but oh well. The sd card now shows up under file explorer (once the program is closed and opened again). The first: mount_sd.sh #!/bin/bash # run as superuser # Create mount location variable mntloc=/media/${SUDO_USER:-$(whoami)}/$(lsblk -I 179 -o LABEL | tail -n 1) # Make a mount folder, hopefully MAJOR id stays 179 mkdir -p $mntloc # Mount the sdcard! mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 $mntloc -o uid=32011 And the second: umount_sd.sh #!/bin/bash # run as superuser # Create mount location variable mntloc=/media/${SUDO_USER:-$(whoami)}/$(lsblk -I 179 -o LABEL | tail -n 1) # Unmount the sdcard! umount $mntloc Note that I'm assuming there is only one inserted sd card which is why I can use tail to get the label. Also, I assumed the MAJOR id is 179...I don't know if this will be static across other phones or even over time, but I found it with lsblk | grep mmc and copied the MAJ column.

    @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.
