    @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

    @flaun-in That's a different and known bug with Media Hub on the RC branches. I've had to switch to stable branch for now until it's resolved.

    @Keneda Yeah, I've seen cheaper, but I didn't want to take the chance since I was about to install UT on it, as i did. Last thing I needed was a hardware issue...

    How come there is a penguin icon? Ubuntu Touch never shows the kernel console at the beginning. Something is really fishy here.

    @uamoti I gave up on it for a while and when I came back and saw your post it gave me hope. I was having some trouble executing what you did, but I couldn't continue because my phone simply died. It won't charge, it won't turn on. Nothing. What a bummer. edit: After many, many attempts to turn it on it finally came back to life. Now I go back to trying to flash TWRP. So far I've been unsuccessful.

    @Capsia thanks for the notice. But I think I found a bug. I previously downloaded dev channel 1583 but never installed it. But now there is no option to discard that previously downloaded version and look for a newer one. So unless I actually install that buggy version I seem to be stuck? (edit: playing around with the channel without actually changing anything seems to have fixed it and now I can download 1592; still odd...)

    @jezreel Here is the factory images for nexus/pixel phones, reflash your phone but do not boot into android. When you have reset the phone to the latest factory image, start the ubports installer when the phone is in bootloader: https://developers.google.com/android/images

    Okay, I filed two bugs on Axolotl's GitHub. It's the first time I used GitHub so please forgive any mistakes, or point them out so that I can learn. I hope it's helpful in any way. It's a worthy project and I'm eager to help it move forward. Unfortunately I can only help in small ways such as this.

    Got a similar issue 3 days ago when activated alarm for work the next day. Button not stayed grey, green ok. But alarm didn't poped on the notification bar, and time untill it rings was about 30 days later, and not next morning. Tried all presetted alarms, all broken. Tried lot of things to resolve it, but only setting up a new alarm with same settings worked. Then i deleted the first broken one i had, and all the others now work again. First time in five years using uTouch that i have issue with alarm, it's the only one i have to not be late to work...

    Genius! That worked a treat. Well, I've gotten the Netherlands one working. And the USA one is taking much longer to fail than it used to! I'll count that as progress.

    Hmm, I am guessing, but maybe there is some completely new ca-certificate that your pfsense is using that other devices already got via an update, but UT is lagging behind in that regard?

    Thanks for the hints! Yes this worked for me. After configuring all my email accounts I created a backup folder on the external SD card and went to this folder and created the backup files: tar -czf cache.tar /home/phablet/.cache/dekko2.dekkoproject/ tar -czf config.tar /home/phablet/.config/dekko2.dekkoproject/ tar -czf local.tar /home/phablet/.local/share/dekko2.dekkoproject/ I copied these files to the backup folder on the external SD card of the new device, navigated to it and restored the configuration: tar -xzf cache.tar -C / tar -xzf config.tar -C / tar -xzf local.tar -C / And dekko 2 is working with the restored configuration! (just copying the folders did not work, because I got an error message)
