@idonthatevests said: Patches that implement repository switching mechanism for system updates have been suggested a few months ago but gained no attention. Same with mirror hosting proposals. strictly speaking no patch is really necessary to switch repos, since none of the systems involved (ubport.com, gitlab.com, github.com) has dnssec enabled, so if the device is tricked into following a different server, it will work just as well. By definition if the server don't use dnssec, there is no way for the client to test it. Lying DNS servers are evil only if the users don't know. Many Linux users already use fully knowingly lying DNS servers (PiHole for example) Concretly, the lying DNS server could be setup at local Wifi level by each user wanting to use a mirror. So the only hard requirement is an agreement for mirroring since this consumes bandwidth, and possibly some Api for the store (not sure about that). Where are the mirror hosting proposals you are mentioning ? I follow this forum since nov 2025 and I don't recall having seen something like it.

@pparent Many tries later - with a failed speechmessage too - unexpected: sending a picture works fine up to now. Later I will send you a screencast of the failed picture insert before. Btw: installing the screencast App failed... AppStore always returns to the green "installieren" button!

but yeah alot of all this is very "fresh" so expect bugs ....i know for a fact this apps jitsi meet function is still a little borked ...ill get to it eventually

@Moem thank you!

@Moem I second this, I've been wondering why this was on recent in the inTouch app for who knows how long.

@E-Z-Tux idk the chip manufacturer for this tablet but research this: if Mediatek: bootrom bypass & sp flash tool if Qualcomm: EDL mode & Download tool

No, no change. I'll open an issue; that'll be more efficient. I've started the French translation on Weblate.

@MrT10001 @MrT10001 said: You can reinstall through the installer leaving the "wipe data" unticked which will retain all your data and take about 10 minutes or in updates change the channel to development and then back again. Good to know (never tried it) but that still would clear all Libertine containers right (IIRC packages get installed outside user data?)

@Keneda Sometimes, such severe restrictions can also lead to a huge surge in innovation and creativity.

@domubpkm Well, if my calculation is correct that means about 2Mbits/s, it seems quite decent for Bluetooth.

@projectmoon thanks for the feedback! Auto sync: currently UT does not have a way for apps to run background jobs, an unconfined app is required. Not planned right now due to the maintenance overhead, but maybe in the future! Sharing: yeah, the app has no sharing features, its something I plan to implement soon Slowness: strange, Ill see if I can enhance the optional debug logs to better understand this and other issues that some people report with their servers Gallery: seems a limitation with the gallery app, from the file manager you can send videos and multiple files Infinite scroll: Unfortunately this being my first UT app I did the gallery in a non optimal way and now a big refactor is needed to have this. Maybe something for the future

@projectmoon no probleme for me with backspace. but i don't made full tests... update : the probleme existe, only in the text box of the webpages (not for the app's texte box). drop down menu (already) don't works in parameters. after hyding keyboard, it won't re-pop. the app shutdown when I try to download a pdf file (but i can read it in the browser)

@KJU Just to point out, Ubuntu Touch is the name of the mobile operating system that you have installed and given good account. UBPorts is the charitable foundation that helps develop and finance Ubuntu Touch through donations and sponsorship.

@steffend I understand now why my search for Pixel9a on the forum didn't get anything, it because of the space... and that's why I don't include it to make searching easier.

@pparent video script of bulletpoints on android to UT transition.

The problem has resolved itself somehow. As of now everything is working as intended. I will post any developments that might arise. Thanks.

@UBportsNews I know that its not allowed to talk about devices, but I find it worth to mention this link to the devs: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12216/eventual-port-for-a-pixel-9a/2 because irs a quite new device and a very high version of android. So maybe someone is inspired by this to make a real port out of it.

@Balrong It is possible to install a click by browsing the web site open-store.io, download it and install from there. yes the install is an option as advised by @mrt10001. I have found no other way to install again with UT already installed than running 'sudo reboot bootloader' and launching the installer from there (after connecting the USB cable of course).

@developerbayman @moem thx for your answers I will follow your thread and check for progress. The Lenovo is still in use, but if neccessary i can do experiments. Thank you for your effort, i can only install if anybody did the hard part. Bogi
