@oldbutndy don't some cell providers provide wifi bridge antenna things specifically for situations like this.

@oldbutndy said: or (2) on another brand, if you brick the main board during UT install, you effectively cannot get a part replacement in any country but France (if I understand that thread correctly). Replace France with EU, then it is correct. I know, as I bricked my FP and had it brought back to life by the said French company, which does hardware costomer service for FairPhone. I do not live in France, but inside EU. It has been a smooth experience, by the way, quite contrary to the bad reputation of FP customer service.

@gandalf said: no ringing tone when making a call yes, that's probably some signal that is not understood by the phone handler, to me it seems linked to the callee's cellular network as ringing works or not consistently, depending on the person I call.

@gpatel-fr that is true

@arubislander OK. Darn !

@Bolly Not harsh at all. But we had to go through the process of warning the user and seeing where things went. Where they went warranted intervention. The situation has now been dealt with and we have posted our stance on the matter going forwards.

@MarcelloTogg Core merged requests help to see too https://gitlab.com/groups/ubports/development/core/-/merge_requests?scope=all&state=merged

@tacofeast Yes, welcome! It takes some considerable work to get Ubuntu Touch working on a given phone. There are no ports of Samsung phones at present, and porting is done by community members like yourself. So to see UT running on those phones, you'd need to do the work, or find others interested in sharing that work. There's documentation on porting on the UBports website. Alternately, there'd a list of already supported devices, and perhaps you could find one available used to test out the OS.

Nice idea, that’s actually pretty clever! I’ve never thought about using the phone as a remote audio sink like that. Did you notice much delay in real use, especially for videos?

“Sounds really interesting! If the UT port on the FLX1 turns out stable, it could be a solid alternative. Dual boot support is a nice bonus too—curious to see if they’ll eventually make it work with the main storage
