    apache2 is not installing as far as I can tell. I have developed an entertainment website - home server - that I would like to put on the device to watch movies and listen to music on a memory stick. Thanks PS: separately - suggest you check the meaning in French for 'Libertine'.

    @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.

    @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)

    @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).
