@Lakotaubp The p3a boots normaly today as well.

@Moem Well, yes, as futur Ubuntu versions will need, like 20.04, minimum Linux kernel versions. So Android Linux kernels to be updated is important for futur support under... 30.04 maybe one day ? For helping long term support to the consumers, Fairphone chose the SOC for the FP5 in an industrial catalog BTW, so that there is long term support from vendor Qualcomm, and so that they don't need to work very hard like they did for android 10 on FP2.

@Rita-G It theoretically will work on all providers..... However it doesn't support VoLTE (Voice over Long term evolution) (yet) which some networks use. In the UK it works on O2, EE, 3 and Vodaphone (plus others that piggy back off these networks). It is also dependent on the device as well, i.e some devices are 2G and 3G only which may cause an issue with network providers removing 3g service.

@Chan1234 I am a newbie and know very little, but I managed to get my VPN up and running following this tutorial and with the help of other users. https://ubports.com/de/blog/ubports-blogs-nachrichten-1/post/using-vpn-in-ubuntu-touch-3065 aquaris e4.5 Volla phone X

@danfro said in Patreon: still possible?: @Rondarius You are right, I am not very busy at the forum. :smiling_face_with_halo: But if you ping me, I will get an email. Regarding the patreon merchandise, I managed to find out that the shop is currently undergoing some internal changes and handing over duties. I am not involved myself, but I kindly ask you to be patient. Your case is known now and hopefully can get sorted soon. Thank you so much for replying! I'll wait patiently!

@zozo23 You can browse the app catalogue here: https://open-store.io Additionally, UT allows you to install desktop apps through Libertine and Android apps through the Waydroid container, however that's a bit more involved and some things might not work.

Hi, The problem has resolved, but the reason is unknown to me. [image: 1685790074051-bildschirmfoto-von-2023-06-03-13-00-25.png] However, I had an update today, but whether that has any effect on the Firefox browser escapes my knowledge. [image: 1685790095581-bildschirmfoto-von-2023-06-03-12-40-27.png] Was probably on my side of the web. Greetings Mario

@mamaji77111 Yes, true. I had to address all those issues to get the VPN install script to work again.

@kugiigi That is nice to hear! It's a success story then! Yeah, I think if there is willingness to pay for new features and accelerated development, and I do think there is willingness here, then financial incentives can motivate all parties to more engagement. Users don't feel that lost and powerless regarding the evolution of their favorite mobile OS, and freelance developers can pick and choose from interesting and paid jobs. It seems to me a win-win!

@wizardi3 The function is not global? I don't think that is claimed, nor do I know what that would even mean. UBports is the name of the foundation and, by extension, the community. The OS is called Ubuntu Touch. Maybe that clears up some of the confusion?
