It stopped working for me.

And for me.

I also got a really good answer in the Q&A.

Glad to hear it!

Hi @Vlad-Nirky
Please do not advise to bother the porter for something that is not supported.

OP wants to use apt.
If they couldn't figure out how to do it, they would more than likely break something, that's why we advise against it.

Of course there is still the break your ut channel on Telegram...

Dear all,

Well, I have 2 questions this time:

Given the exciting developments over the past few weeks, and especially with the addition of VoLTE on some devices on dev channel, are you planning to release a further stable OTA on the Focal branch?
Canonical has officially announced that it has integrated the API of the open-source location provider BeaconDB into its repositories with the next release of version Ubuntu 25.04:
https://beacondb.net/
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/plucky-puffin-release-notes/48687
Could this addition open up a future perspective for A-GPS functionality on Ubuntu Touch?

Thank you very much! Can't wait to watch the Q&A 162! Cheers!

What can newbies do to help, other than donating?

Maybe something in here will give you ideas: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/6991/how-can-i-help

@Vlad-Nirky Oh... Sad to learn. Indeed, Blutetooth works pretty well in Focal (Seat Alhambra 2014 + Ford Fiesta 2017, both run pretty well with no issue). It also runs nicely with all BT audio devices I did connect.

But indeed, Noble is not yet ready for stable release. If you need those services as you daily driver, you may stay on Focal for now.

Hi @RedXXIII

I think I had something similar.
I removed the old Cinny and I now have the notifications from Cinny UT by Danfro.

So should be fine in my experience.

@Vlad-Nirky I think it's because Contacts sync are currently broken, but it would maybe be fixed in Noble as I heard (let's see)...

If you have money and want UT preinstalled, Volla and Fiarphone are the way to go.

Correct, all Volla devices do have a "UBports" version. However, I'm not sure one can find the Fairphone 4 with preinstalled UT. Have you got a link or a retailer?

If you are in North America and require VoLTE, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 pro is going well on that.

Indeed! And also Redmi Note 9S and Pro India + Poco X3 NFC are now VoLTE capable on the Dev channel! I guess more devices to come on the next upcoming weeks...

Hi @PiotrBujakowski
That's not supported.
The OS is immutable and APT is nit the way to go to install stuff. Use the open store.

You can do what you want but at your own risks.
