@gpatel-fr Can confirm Fairphone 5 VOLTE works as expected on 24.04. Battery life has been great, SMS works, MMS (I have not tested with the final release of 24.04 only a RC) worked but only with WiFi off AS OF 9/16/25. Otherwise I think its fairly solid device and works well with UT.

@wgarcia Very good idea, will try this!

@arubislander said in Trying out UT on Pixel 3a XL for review article: Opening an issue about it on the Installer's issue tracker will keep the info from getting lost. Done! https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/4177

I casually watched a part of that Q&A session! This thread was mentioned and it will be looked into: https://www.youtube.com/live/XorXLuKl2KE?feature=shared&t=1202 I have a question regarding Liberapay. I'm donating to ubports-foundation: https://liberapay.com/ubports-foundation/ But there also is UBports, which is a team ubports-foundation is a part of: https://liberapay.com/UBports/ What's the difference between them? Perhaps UBports was created first and, when the foundation was established some years later, a new account was created? Should we donate to ubports-foundation? The PayPal, Liberapay and Patreon images on the donate page do nothing when clicked: https://ubports.com/donate

Welcome! If you're interested in using Ubuntu Touch, I'd say the best bet is to read around the forums a bunch to see if Ubuntu Touch will fit your needs, and if so which device from the Devices list will suit your needs and try to find one that's available and affordable where you are.

@Winnie625 said in ubports and wereables question (smart watches): Has anyone here tested a Suunto device on Ubuntu? Would be cool to know how well it syncs. We can safely assume it won't sync at all since there is no matching companion app for Ubuntu Touch.

@wally The lack of MMS was a big sticking point for me, good to know it might just take some messing around to get it working. Hopefully the new APN settings will resolve my sms/mms issues. @arubislander Good to know! Once I get the SMS/MMS issues ironed out I will do some playing around and see what I can come up with. If I could somehow get bitwarden and firefox I would be set. The default browser is pretty rough with the scaling bug on the FP5.

@padraic I don't think Snapzor even works on Noble. For me it doesn't open. But yeah, you don't need it anymore to enable snaps on 24.04. However, it may serve as a GUI for installing snaps or as a snap store if ever the dev decides to still make it work on Noble. I've already tried snaps on my FP4 and Pro1-X. Sadly, it's still not a reliable option for apps. Most GUI programs doesn't work well or even open. Big improvement on this will come with an updated Mir and Wayland support Hopefully that will come soon

@MistyPigeon said in Hi from Thailand – I'm Nack, 10 years with Ubuntu and ready to build!: This looks AI generated and 5 AI write detecters say this is 100 percent,the way i knew it was ai generated was by the emojis,formatting and the obvious markdown usage but Hi NK (can I call u that) Hi MP. Thanks for pointing that out.

@RJDan If you reported it in a forum post or a gitlab issue then you should updated there and also mention the steps you did that could have fixed it.

Hi @saveurlinux, The Ladybird browser does not appear to be fully developed yet. [image: 1752695570948-ladybird.png] The Morph browser, on the other hand, is complete, but we do not yet have enough programmers to integrate the necessary operating components. Therefore, I believe there is a lack of available expertise, i.e., a sufficient number of workers. Greetings Mario

@RobTheBold I've tried this phone (Global model) with AT&T, RedPocket (AT&T) and Mint Mobile (T-Mobile). The first two don't work at all. Mint works for voice and SMS but not MMS or data. I'm giving up on this one and returning it to EBay.

@Smirftsch Yeah, the idea of Dekko or another email client as a core app makes sense to me. Longer term, I thought at one point I heard talk about trying to fork Thunderbird, possibly via Snaps, which will be enabled by default in 24.04. But I'm sure that'll require some work to function well in UT. Meanwhile, I hope some other input about email usage, and Dekko specifically, can help make UT more useable for you.

@TotalSonic thanks for that, really I'm interesting to see what possible solutions might be available.

@Alain it's great to read your good news! Thank you and I hope your daughter will enjoy her tablet for a long time.
