    @hlbkv gnome software can handle debs and flatpaks (and on Ubuntu also snaps I think). The app itself is a deb, so it is not surprising that it can be installed. The apps that end up being able to be installed with it are probably also debs.

    I also have an x23 and ran into all that. I worked the issue to a halium mismatch. The Waydroid Helper app uses v13 and the base install covers up to v11 and guess where our phone sits. Its v12. So eventually I'll dive into it and probably just end up building an x23 specific version which I'll drop in here and on GitHub. I have no clue when I'll get to it though, I have like 5 other major projects from custom kernels, a few apps, a homelab server to finish, and getting my volla to run android apps. But don't worry some of us are hammering this issue out.

    @scottbouch For Davical there is no maintenance needed, unless you want some more advanced setup, and it is very reliable, but it isn't very easy to install. There is a package in the default Ubuntu repository, but you'll have to setup manually PostgreSQL and Apache. https://www.davical.org/installation.php

    @AppLee It is currently using Qt 5.9. Depending on what one wants to use exactly, it might not be available on UT though.

    @Lakotaubp Okay I'm on Ubuntu Mate on a 64 bit machine on live boot . I ran sudo apt update sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot sudo snap install ubports-installer I started ub ports installer and plugged in phone. Then I booted the phone to recovery mode by holding down power button and bottom volume button. Next I ran adb devices Next I chose to select device manually, followed the steps on the installer and let it do its thing. 10 to 15 mins later, the phone rebooted completely with all data still intact. I highly recommend using Ubuntu Mate Liveboot for installations of Ubuntu Touch. It is the only time the installer has worked flawlessly. I also tried several other distros in live boot including regular Ubuntu 18 lts and 20 lts. They did not work when I ran sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot because it said the packages couldn't be found. Ubuntu 18 lts Mate get 10 out of 10 stars in my book as the best installation distro period.

    @livanti21 When you enter your APN , then save it,---after you reboot ,and go back to check which APN is being used ,do you get a little box that you need to put a check mark or tick in ?

    @magdesign If you are going to work on https://github.com/rinigus/pure-maps/issues/408, that would resolve most of your issue with only remaining part being isolines. But for isolines we could maybe find some better solution

    Thanks for You all! I unfortunately live in "far far away Europe country" where it's hard to purchase bq or meizu... that's why I've chosen Nexus as it is still avaliable here Thank You for explanation, I found out that flo and deb has camera on the right side in the top bar and previous 2012 model has it in the centre of top bar. I also asked resellers for pictures of fastboot mode to make sure. (The problem was that they marked their devices as just nexus 7). Mentioned problems (with bluetooth) are acceptable for my needs. In future I wish I have pinephone and pinetab but for now they are not ready. Once again big thanks I'll mark thread as solved.
