@arubislander OK, thank you!

@JamP I got success the same way today on Pixel 3a. Installed Google Chrome on Linux Mint. Back to requested factory image with Android Flash Tool and then UBports installer. Thanks people for the advices and suggestions.

@Fizz Any such app would eat away at your battery life... not sure you'd be happy or better off with that.

@MrT10001 said in Startup: On some it really screws up the fastboot menu That's exactly what it did to me, downloaded bootlogo deleted fastboot logo to restore it I used this and created my bootlogo.

@Fizz said in Reinstall?: can i just re-run the UT installer directly? Yes you can!

@Fizz said in mms issues... again: @lduboeuf Why is it the case that wifi has to be turned off to receive MMS? This is due to internal limitation, pretty hard to tackle... https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/packaging/ofono-sailfish/-/issues/13

@Fizz said in Installing to Pixel 3a: Interestingly, the Installer asked me to rate how the installation went, i said "pass", but then it gives me a warning that the installation was stopped due to a problem. It's the reporting process that is currently broken. Glad to hear you got it installed and are now up and running!

@xCleaner15 Well done, good news

@arubislander Thanks, I tried my old Microsoft cable and it connected great. Time to set up Libertine now...

@CiberSheep Thanks for the hint. In my case it was not enough, i got to install Android update (12) and do a factory reset then ( still having the SIM up ), then next run i was able to toggle on OEM unlock. Note that by installing the required version later, the setting was greyed again but did not blocked the UT install process ( bootloader stays unlocked ).

@granule You can buy a wireless display/miracast adapater that you cam plug into your monitor's HDMI port. The most recommended is Microsoft's adapter since it's the ones know to reliably work with UT. Other adapters would be hit or miss.

@moodroid ... I just bought some 3a and 3a XL for a project where I needed a Linux Phone ... And my first experience was to be 4 hours fighting and finishing with a "bricked" 3a ... ahhhh ... just that was not bricked and I didn't understand several things about the process (I am writing my own manual with the details). At the end, that Android 9 permanent Google splash screen after using the flash-all.bat is annoying, but not wrong. Just need to continue with the UBports installation and at the end you will have an operational Ubuntu Touch phone working. Other thing .... the current Google instructions for backport are USELESS, as they already erased the information about the 3a or 3a XL. There is a WIRELESS version that doesn't work because it is not possible to downgrade the phone ... (Android limitation), so you need to use a FACTORY version, unpack the ZIP file and follow the instructions, to finish with the bricked phone. I found one, but after so many URLs I am not sure where I had it ... could some official Touch source to publish an official FACTORY URL for 3a (sargo) and 3a XL (bonito) images? ... again, don't say that read the Android references, because they are no longer working with these Pixel phones. It seems that UBPorts just needs the phone to have some Android 9 things there. And well, I even erased all the phone, but rebooting it and playing with Power and Power volume buttons, makes the PC script to recognize the phone and deliver the Android 9 version. What about another Android version? ... in my initial desperation, I also tested that, but the installation fails. So cool your head a little and just do the things with calm and everything happy. The Flash Android tools downgraded a 3a XL without any trouble, Just Development mode, USB Debugging and the OEM Ulocking, and to accept some questions here and there and ready, Android 9. The only I need to figure is how to turn off the Unlocking option since I have no more Android in the phone and I don't need Android there again ... maybe one of these days

@kugiigi said in Keepass on Focal: @becherekmg The show password icon is there but it's not properly displayed in dark mode so it's kinda hidden Yes, you are right. I couldn't see the icon because of the dark mode. Thanks. But today I found out that I can open an old databaze I created six months ago for testing. So the application probably works and I probably have some problem with the particular database I'm trying to open.

@Keneda Thanks !

@Keneda Had forgotten that one, nice reminder.
