@AppLee Sorry, but for quite some time I am no longer able to get a working system with ubports on sd card. Many other distros do correctly boot, but not ubports!

@AppLee ok,thanks for help

It is very easy to install UT. I have done the same with my Manjora Pinephone. I downloaded the latest jumpdrive and the UT image. then i used balenaEtcher to flash 2 SD cards. One with the latest jumpdrive version and one with the UT image for the Pinephone. You only need the SD card with the UT image to test how the OS runs. The SD card with jumpdrive is needed to write the UT image to the internal memory with balenaEtcher. There are really good instructions in the forum.

@The_Privateer said in Ulefone Armor X7 Pro: indeed, I want to install UT on it So first you need to port uTouch on it.

I had problems unlocking the bootloader of my Nexus 5! The device was recognized and the folders were visible but was not detected when switched off. So I used "platform-tools" under Linux Mint (because under Windows 10 I have had problems) and, after having opened the folder of platform-tools as administrator, I typed the command lines, but with the smartphone turned on. It was successful unlocked. (Sorry for my English language which is not good)

@dobey Thanks, that explains the difficulty. I only use stable channel hence I did not know the other channels had a different system. Nor did I know what OTA stood for.

@CiberSheep I have added to the existing report rather than start another.

@AppLee Thank you for the welcome and comfortable response. Do I understand that the process of remmont the device, such as through ssh, is a difficult thing, or trying to access from an outside party to my information is not possible, and as for applications, I use the device as a means of communication and messages, no more. What attracted me the most to switch to UT was the privacy it provided to the user, so I would like to rest more.

@AppLee said in UBports on Distrowatch: @Fla That's probably only the project description. Exactly, the ranking change continuously and the news updates are frequent but does not change the editing date of the project description.

@dobey said in Install editor / python: And we do not support installing additional deb packages in the rootfs. You don't support but don't forbide ^^ It can be done at user own risk and OTA, thus system, break.

Morph Browser is the preinstalled browser and a good one in my opinion. Installing Firefox via libertine or Anbox should work but is probably not the best user-experience.

@MixMac Here we go! https://github.com/orgs/ubports/projects/24#column-11303039 Good new, project has been moved to « To do » in OTA-15 section.

The PineTab has some of its own unique challenges. The most noticeable one is that the screen only renders in landscape mode and does not auto rotate. Also, if you would buy the integrated keyboard cover, there is a bug that stops the mouse from moving over the whole screen when using the integrated trackpad. I haven't tried it with an external mouse, so I don't know if it as an issue with the trackpad or a screen issue with the pointer. Of course these bugs are under investigation. Other than those two, Ubuntu Touch works much the same on the PineTab as on the PinePhone, as @poVoq mentioned.

Ordered one myself. Slightly pricey but for a project I'm happy to support.

Actually PostmarketOS support for the OnePlus2 seems relatively complete: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/OnePlus_Two_(oneplus-oneplus2) As for the UT port... looks like no one is working on that for a while now, so I doubt "hope" is sufficient here

Just pulled Blender from Debian repositories in Libertine.

Samba is buggy on uTouch. Try to access your samba server via file explorer app, and prey for it to work.

I am on a N5 and would like to sort how to have audio from a website keep playing after the screen is turned off. Will keep trying things...
