    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

    @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.

[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.

    @mrt10001 said in Change to new phone: The annoyance with any SONY phone is finding one with an unlocked bootloader, or a bootloader you can unlock. You can buy an "unlocked" phone, but all that means is it is not SIM locked. The SONY screens are really nice, but this annoyance with the bootloader has put me off. I don't get it : Sony phones are THE phones for Jolla Sailfish and if you stick to those models then unlocking the bootloader in order to flash Ubuntu Touch shouldn't be an issue ?!

    @applee I am just trying to help him! I happen to know a lot of people who have been using their OS in 32-bit mode while there was totally no reason at all to do so! And then I am talking about 12 year old laptops with processors like the i3 350M/370M and so on.....

    Hi and welcome @ubportsuser For sake of keeping up with the various topic I'll lock this thread. I suggest you create a new one and refer to this one. It will avoid confusion for what might have been an old issue fix years ago. Thanks for understanding.

    @hihignoki Also, AFAIK no port exists for Windows phones... There no existing procedure. Android is based on Linux so we can use the open source part of android and build around it. For windows the journey would be long and difficult I guess. So if you don't know where to start, I'd say that you will probably not be able to do it...
