    @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

    I tried to enter command in the terminal: sudo snap install libreoffice. It installed. This version of LibreOffice seems to work better than the libertine version I described above. Some dialogs end up partially outside the monitor in desktop mode, but it is indeed usable.

    @Sentinel Hi All, I'm just now running the install from within the waydroid helper app. Back on the stable OS it shows me that the dowload speed is around 200KB/s, the is about 900MB to download. So yes, a verry slow connection for this app... EJ

    @Rondarius Yes! I watched in some horror as a friend of mine took the back off his... I'm not at all keen to do that - I'll take it into one of those phone repair shop places. They can have that stress!

    As of today, I discovered a variant of this bug: the simcard asks for my pin number to connect to the network - it's slightly less annoying since I don't have to reboot. Are there any logs I should check ?

    Makes sense, thank you. I think it would make sense as an option in the language dialog, but it might come across as a bit too hacky - especially as people might want to keep their alternative layouts. Might make more sense to just wait for the underlying problems to be worked out. Guess I'll just leave it disabled for now.

    @3T_Ed I'm glad all that was needed was some clarification. Yes I guess removing the plugins is not preferable ; a hack is possible but you would have to apply it again after each update.

    @AppLee this your message has to be somwhere on first landing pages. This is not quite good for marketing part of the project, but informative and fair enough for new users.

    @stanwood Thanks, though I dont expect much here... Providers are not implementing stuff in software. They are just buying equipment, and configure it. Most of the magic happens in the vendor parts of the base station and the mobile device. So probably you would have to talk to Qualcomm

    @AppLee I had suggested one time to have some clear instructions in the UT installer, right before flashing the image on the phone, something like: if you have a functional Android phone on which you want to install UT, please do the following tests before proceeding, just to check that your USB cable and phone are ok from the hardware point of view, like: - connect your Android phone to a PC and see if you can transfer files back and forth; if ok, use that cable. - check your SIM, calling, volume buttons, Wifi, Bluetooth, notification LED, etc. whatever hardware functionality you might think; In this way, if someone bought a refurbished Android phone, they can do a hardware healthy check and not jump directly to the flashing step. I know from my case that I didn't bother to do these tests. Luckily, I only had some problems with the USB cable. Hope someone out there is listening, otherwise we'll meet these situations still.

    If someone has an idea for a test, that could identify (narrow down, rule out, ...) the culprit, I'm all ears and in testing mood.

    @nebulom Hi, the root filesystem is read only which means you cannot install debian packages the traditional way. But it is a Linux afterall so you can remount the FS with write privilege. You can also use a Libertine container which is probably the best choice for you. If you want to use show your students how to create an app for UT it will have multiple pros and cons: Differenciate the host and target computer (cross compilation) Show them the linking issues and requirements How useful yocto, clickable and other tools are to overcome some of the problems What is a bootloader, a rootfs, an OS, a DE and what it means for their code If you just want something simpler just SSH to the computer, code within vi and compile using GCC, UT comes with unecessary complications. But IMHO the previous items are worth tackling with when your learn new skills. Some might like it, some no but they'll learn what it is and what they are willing/able to do.

    Edge is not to be used by end users! Stick to RC or, if you want to take risk, a little, dev.
