@alagirialagiri as this is a support question, I have moved it to its own thread and a more suitable category.

@MrT10001 After Rebort System, the phone will restart and then enter the fastboot interface. adb is Scanning for devices will appear in the downloader. If the phone is restarted, it will remain stuck in the fastboot interface until the system is reloaded

@Fizz Not as far as I know, but you can clear the cache folder (i wouldn't recommend it though as things may "misbehave"). The only issue I have had with getting rid off things was a build up of lg files for some reason on my Redmi Note 7, resolved by clearing the cache from booting into Recovery - back things up if you do to cover any issues. However I have never had to do it for every day maintenance.

@GermanAizek Releases are accompagned with a blog post for now, until someone take the issue.

@lduboeuf T-Mobile, USA. I am on 20.04. Stable build.

Ah ok, that could explain. i don't know exactly but i've heard issues in US regarding call and sms, maybe by searching T-Mobile or USA in the forum ?

@KJU
Hello,
TWRP, it seems, doesn't boot temporarily with my Ubuntu Touch bonito device in fastboot mode.

'fastboot boot twrp.img' gives 'no CMD or OS...' error.

@AppLee I've had another go with the usbotg-dongled mouse.
On my device, it's not doing everything I'd like, or I'm missing the way... Or is it my mouse?

I can see open applications, by swiping from right side, but cannot position the pointer to swipe any up & away. The mouse doesn't open the application drawer with a swipe from the left [aha! just solved this one - push left edge and wait] In Morph browser, how can open tabs be closed by mouse? Scrolling is very slow.
Cheers,
KJU

@mihael Thank you for that tip!

@treebeard Thanks for all the help, I have managed to make it work...apart from emptying the Trash!

Hello, if someone doesn’t get it, here’s the solution.

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA):

Go to https://myaccount.google.com/security.

Under Google Sign In, find and click Two-Step Verification.

Follow the instructions to enable two-step verification. You will need to add a phone number to receive codes.

Create an application password:

After enabling two-factor authentication, go to https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords.

Create a password for the Mail application. It will look like a set of 16 characters.

Set up Dekko 2 using the application password (16 characters):

Open the Dekko 2 app on your Ubuntu Touch device. Proceed to add a new account and enter your Gmail email address. When asked for a password, use the generated app password instead of the normal password from your Google account.

IMAP and SMTP server settings:
IMAP server: imap.gmail.com
IMAP port: 993
IMAP encryption: SSL/TLS
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
SMTP port: 465 or 587
SMTP encryption: SSL/TLS

Two days of torment and I finally managed to do it.

@developerbayman May I know which ROM did you use in the end?. I download the latest android 10 rom at the website suggested by ubport and flash it prior to ut installation. Now with SensorsStatus it seems only GPS works. Rotation doesn't work. One of my sim card also doesn't work.

@hilbert a little late to the party, but you are right the other variables should not impact your sync. I think the "config name" can be important, if you used special characters it could be problematic, but other than that they all are phone related.If you still have problems with carddav sync, i wrote a script which setup these things with automated sync (systemd instead of cron), take a look here : https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10127/contacts-carddav-automatic-setup-and-sync-through-this-script
(hoping you already solved this issue 🙂 )

I think you should first try rebooting into the bootloader/fastboot mode and check if your device is recognized by your computer using the command 'fastboot devices'. If it's recognized, you can try flashing a stock ROM or LineageOS using the appropriate commands.

If the partition table issue persists, you may need to use tools like fastbootd or QFIL to rewrite the partition table, but this process can be complex and may require advanced technical knowledge.

Hello @linuxfanche ,

I think you can play audio via bluetooth like in the car or on a bluetooth speaker (if I understood the question correctly).

Video streaming via Bluetooth does not exist as far as I know.

@wisdomlight yes, and no. There are several options, but none of them are perfect:

Install Axolotl from the openstore. It can act as a primary or secondary device. It's currently bare bone and didn't always work when i used it as a secondary device, haven't tried primary.

Install Signal through waydroid. It works well, but you don't get push notifications and waydroid drains your battery faster.

Create a matrix bridge or purchase one. The bridge act as a secondary device and you can use the matrix app Cinny.

I currently use a purchased matrix bridge from element one, and Cinny. It works ok now after they resolved some issues with the bridge that happened earlier this year. I use signal in waydroid as a primary device, and have it as a backup in case the bridge fail ( it has been stable so far). Unfortunately I can't copy paste stuff in the Cinny app, i've opened an issue on github.

@Ian Clever thinking, thank you!

No replies yet? Hrmmm...

I did find some information about Linphone. It's available on the OpenStore for Xenial but doesn't seem to be available for Focal yet.

I am just so used to installing from the CLI

Yeah, I don't think that's common in Android or similar systems.
