    @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

    @Rob_S Hello, is your issue resolved? Today I was able the first time to make pictures and videos with my VollaPhone/GS290. This means to switch from photo to video in camera app and create a video without freezing. The issue, occurs when the aspect ratio of the image sections is different between photo and video. This problem has not fully fixed yet (because of course they can differ) but here is a workaround. Please find the settings I made in camera app. I don´t want to state that these are the only one. They are just working. So never change a running system. Photo: Storage: Save to sd-card; 16:9 (9.4MP); Normal quality; HDR: off Video: Storage: Save to sd-card; 1080p Flash light currently not available for VollaPhone. Remark: Not sure that it has an effect where to store the pictures & videos. But I assume it is better to have them in the same place... . Ubuntu 16.04 (2020-09-26)

    @C0n57an71n I am still able to access my Pinephone via 'telnet 172.16.42.1' on usb. A booted system (eMMC or SD) won't start the usb interface for SSH access.

    @Mystic-X said in Nexus 4 latest update causes error and no complete boot: But still I'm a little shocked about that... I'm not, edge is not to be used by end users for daily, even dev, like said Aplee, should not. End user who want to test in a daily device should stick to RC.

    @Jules OTA13 is out and with it a newer QtWebEngine for Morph browser. So Morph has now a more recent version of chromium and with it better support of various websites. Can you mark the thread as solved. Or if you can't you can ask and I'll do it for you.

    @prog-amateur Hi, sadly OTA13 will not help. Halium7 port for the Nexus5 might help but this port still needs some work. I don't have a real status, but if you're willing, you can help: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3777/call-for-testing-nexus-5-hammerhead-owners

    @Keneda I won't say otherwise. But I will still say that not all was done in one day for the volla-phone which did not leave from a totally unknown land but to be explored...

    MTP is an Android thing so it's not automatically available on the Pinephone and Pinetab. I think they do plan to have to though. For now you can use WifiTranser or SSH/SFTP (which I much prefer than wired connection).

    thanks @Keneda , @AppLee no, this is not my daily phone. I used to use stable channel, but because of this issue, I flash the edge channel, hoping that it's fixed there..

    @arubislander thanks, byobu looks like it would help as a workaround, but also pretty useful generally too!

    Remember that this does not affect calls. Its only about mobile data, so the only thing you need to have on the radar is the fact if your device is 4G-capable. Ubuntu Touch will continue to work as today. Only removal of 2G will require VoLTE-capable devices and operating system.

    I've so far found zero patterns regarding file types or sizes, nor mobile data vs wifi, nor VPN or not. Sometimes I get my file, mostly not. Its a bit frustrating as I (edit: would like to) use my phone for email quite a lot, this coupled with the not sending emails on an equally random basis issue makes it quite unworkable.

    Thanks, yes I tried closing and opening the app, thinking exactly what you confirmed, but no joy. I have also tried different apps for audio source, same issue. in the bluetooth settings, this headset is shown with a headset symbol against it, rather than a music smbol (this is an assumption based on other phones / car stereos), as I'd have imagined it to display. Cheers

    @arubislander The usefulness of the cp and mv commands is that they can be currently being used as a workaround for a very annoying bug on the Pinephone : https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/pinephone/-/issues/53
