Well, the new sim didn't change anything in this regard. I got a crash yesterday shortly after opening Messenger- hadn't even had a chance to type anything. After a reset, it's behaved since then.

@lduboeuf Ok, thanks for this information.

@neopentain said in support on x505f:

there won't be any problem if I port the x605 one on a x505 ??

If you try to use the current version as it is, that's not called porting, that's installing. And installing a version of Ubuntu Touch on a different device (even if it's similar) will generally not work and can result in a brick.

If you adapt the version to work with your tablet, that's called porting; it's usually not very easy or quick. But it may be an option. Please start by reading the porting guide so you know what is involved.

@wynn1212 Yep, reflashing the android 9 image and reinstalling seems to have worked. Thanks!

Just wanted to clarify,

Yes, it was two monitors but they were mirrored, not extended. Makes the second monitor pointless for now.

@AppLee Thank you to yourself and @arubislander for replying.

I took another look the next morning and I can see it does what you say, making no attempt to connect wirelessly. I think there were a lot of variables to consider the previous evening and I gained the impression it was trying to use the poor outbound wireless connection.

I'm more sure now the mobile signal was also very poor and intermittent (it was a sea-front camp site). So I think the phone (Volla X23) did the best it could.

Well for me it's safe to use google because I never use it really.
so once connected and being on the landing page at the airport, I just close the tab, so no connection to google at all.
But I like the solution proposed by Kugiigi, it didn't work for me in a hotel, but I was able to find the local IP address used by the router and that worked.

@Lakotaubp That was! Thanks a lot. Nice day.

@thedeafenguy this device does not support display(port) over usb-c.
So you won't be able to achieve wired display mode.

@thedeafenguy Thank you, but following the steps in this order and doing other order that I can think of does not help.

I'll take a look around and see if I can find out the steps needed to back up and restore my text messages and photos so I can do an absolute re-install leaving nothing behind.

Ok try this. Set a static IP address of one of the access point to the lowest IP address available on the router and set and set the DHCP to auto.

On the other AP, set the IP to a static IP to the highest IP address available on the router and switch off DHCP.

Makes sure that both access points have the same SSID. Make sure the WPA-PSK key is the same.

If there are roaming settings, set them to high or aggressive.

(I haven't done this for a while so had to research to refresh on this as all the children have at last moved out 😁 and I stopped doing it for clients).

Oh, and make sure each access point channels are not the same, overlapping channels usually interfere and cause confusion, I usually set them to 6 and 13.

@linuxlion It would seem both of us were going about this the wrong way.

On the login page (you would need to log out of the forum first to see it) there is a Forgotten password link. Here is the direct link: https://forums.ubports.com/reset

@AppLee thanks very much

@justsoup
Yes, I guess this is a good summary.

I think TELEports is very decent.

@nogoogle There is an odd issue with the PP not sure of PPP where if the device has a sim pin when you set up the phone it causes issues. If the sim has no pin all works fine.
I found this out by trying each way. You might find out more by going to the Pine 64 group on Telegram https://t.me/utonpine Another similat issue is that the APN settings "green" switch does not stay on either,

Any Gigaset device is not officially supported by us. There have been many discussions on here about that. Some have got UT running on Gigaset devices but you need to be careful.
