    The issue was me not having a screen lock passcode defined. Not sure if this is the best way to approach this, a settings page for editing user information (including name and root password) would be useful, that one could then opt out for the screenlock.

    @R66F root, you'd probably need to use a custom waydroid gsi with SU binaries. from there just install one of the many root modules/frameworks that let you spoof app id's

    Well, sshd just wasn't running. For some reason, android-gadget-service didn't actually do anything. I've started sshd manually by running sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start and it works. Info I've gathered when trying to determine if it's running: I've run sudo lsof -i -n -P | grep LISTEN on the phone to know if port 22 is open, but it wasn't in the output, which means nothing is listening on it. Then I've run sudo ps aux | grep ssh and no matter if ssh is enabled or not it reports process from /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session ubuntu-touch-session command to be in the interruptible sleep (Ss in the STAT column). It doesn't report anything else, except grep --color=auto ssh due to results being filtered by grep. Now, as I started it, the output also contains /usr/sbin/sshd -D -o PasswordAuthentication=no.

    @kaveman I don't know if proton vpn works for your phone as i don't know (see) the name of your phone but proton vpn works on every smartphone i use(d) : OPO, BQ E5 HD, BQ 4.5, NEXUS 5, the tablet BQ M10 and my daily driver Volla phone currently. Read carefully and apply the procedure of this thread and it should work unless there is something that makes your smartphone incompatible.

    @joão-fornaza With Xiaomi you have to use a Windows PC and use the Mi Flash tool to flash back to stock ROM. Word of warning with Xiaomi, DO NOT LOCK the bootloader once it is unlocked. You have a great chance of bricking the device.

    OK. So I'll have to make do with adding an image onto the phone and setting it as the background/wallpaper. This lets me see how much the image is cropped. I can then edit the image on my PC to add the text box whilst looking at the image on my phone's background to GUESS a position that will not get cropped. I can then export the image as a jpeg, send it to my phone and set as background. Not the best but it works.

    @bobalex70 the problem lies in that the apps do not understand the CIFS (Samba) protocol. For playing media on your devices, you would be better served by installing Jellyfin or Emby or some other light weight media software on a server if available. And installing the Jellyfin client on your device, or the Emby client if Jellyfin doesn't work on your device.

    @pauls Have you tried to follow the UBports Proton VPN settings blog? link text The easiest way is to follow screenshots. Verify you are not connected to vpn on other device using free plan. It works only for one device. Sometimes the connection persist on other devices even you think you have canceled the connection. Did you asked at Proton for the necessary cert file?
