    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.

    @Ida_ said: @DerekZoZo I've tried, but not succeeded. Waydroid is still seen as a rooted system by the app, so it refuses to run. But maybe you find a way in the future. If you ever do, I would really appreciate a guide if you have the time. I am getting some banking apps to work in Waydroid, so it is still very useful. It probably is not "rooted," as such, but unlocked bootloader. That is, unless you actually rooted the Android image. it's still dumb, and I'm not sure unlocked bootloader can be "fixed" without locking the bootloader at the hardware level (which you should not do with Ubuntu Touch).

    @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.

    @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.
