    @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

    @Sentinel said in No GPS access from inside Waydroid: maybe the MIUI version I flashed might have impacted Waydroid's reliability or other things? Yes — this can significantly affect UT. The MIUI image version to use is specified in the installation guide under "2. Check the correct version of MIUI", and it looks like you used the correct one. I can't explain the unusual bugs you've reported. Did you remount the system as read-write and make any changes? Did you use apt (update/upgrade/install)? I'm fine with starting a new discussion thread.

    @jojumaxx Well, I have no Violla phone and so no Way to check. But my guess would be that some service the fingerprint device depends on was not starting up for whatever reason. Might be some kind of race condition in which the service wants to be started up too early and fails.

    @povoq Ah, right. My OPO has an Adreno too, apparently, albeit Adreno 330 whereas OP3 has an Adreno 530.

    Finally was able to reboot about 20 more times to get to the Android screen and install 2 of the Ubuntu Touch downloaded files. After 6 "Yikes" screens I was able to finally do an update of the parially installed system. Now works fine. This experience wasn't OS/2 but BSD might be easier!

    @phoenixlandpirat said in What Is Required to Build a Video Chat Messenger from Scratch?: We had uMatricks that supported video and audio chat, but I think that used an old api or something? Idr but what I do know is that it doesnt work on modern devices, I think it never got updated to work on Ubuntu 16.04, but I wonder if some of that code is reusable? If I remember correctly it was because Canonical spend a lot of time creating a custom version of the browser that allowed doing this stuff on Mir. But this older browser was dropped at some point by Ubports as it was too much effort to maintain and qtwebengine promised to allow the same at some point on Wayland. Edit: This is really the main issue I think. Most messengers get away by using an embedded browser and WebRTC to do video chat. Doing something like that from scratch is really hard.

    @willemhexspoor Hi, seeing this question now, I was recently faced with a similar problem, having to use a Azure Active Directory cloud login, where the admins had forced users to configure MFA. Turns out that there is a well hidden way to configure a TOTP code-generator (i.e. google-authenticator) for use as second factor with Azure AD. This was very frustrating, and I think that the MFA setup page uses dark patterns to prevent users from discovering that feature. There is not much information online. After some googling I just found this old article that seems to describe the method. When the Azure login page tells you "Your organization requires more information bla bla" and you go to the setup page where it displays the QR code for windows authenticator, there will be some very misleading seemingly unimportant link (like "configure app without notifications") which will switch the whole authentication scheme to TOTP. Of course it will never tell you that it is using TOTP and the name Google Authenticator will not appear anywhere. Still it is TOTP and will work correctly using any "standard" authenticator app.
