@Linus67 Thanks very much. Will try it out…

@domubpkm I had to move the number back into the info string. Some translators raised issues that the separate number breaks translation in their language. So we are using this "<b>%1</b> files found, swipe an entry for file info and delete options" variation now. Still translatable and a bold number. Not perfect but should work.

I wouldn't use a META product if there were alternatives. But there are a lot of people who are very resistant to change. There are groups for their kids' school activities: soccer, tennis, music, and so on. If you use Ubuntu Touch every day, a lightweight QML app like Greenline is perfect. You can check WhatsApp messages when needed. In an emergency, you can send a message like, “I'll be 10 minutes late.” Personally, I prefer a WhatsApp alternative that is fast and stable, uses few resources, and adapts well to changes in WhatsApp’s data structure—such as the Go library, whatsmeow, protobuf structures, and WebSocket conditions on the servers. I don’t need features like video or forms. If someone wants all of WhatsApp’s features (including META AI) on Ubuntu Touch, then they have the wrong device. Keep Greenline lean, efficient, and adaptable to changes at Meta for a long life on Ubuntu Touch. Many people and groups still need some time before they’re ready to switch to alternatives.

@AntiMS The experimental Halium 12 build has two reports of succesfull VoLTE - both originating and receiving (non US), and several one way only calls with or without audio. I personally have tried it with all three US networks. Verizon has trouble, but with both T-Mobile and AT&T networks you can receive calls with audio in both directions. However, making a call fails and the dialer hangs. Logs were sent to the porter, and it is suspected that this is an ipv6 vs ipv4 issue. We can help you more efficiently if you join the ubports NA Issues Telegram channel.

@arubislander said: this is probably the left-overs of some app that shared status info to the greeter infographic Possibly the Lock Message app?

@MrT10001 then I guess it's not for me. Thank you all for the clarification.

@hlbkv said: Failed to write reboot parameter file: Permission denied yes that's also a side-effect of installing Ubuntu Touch for my phone. I can work around it by running adb shell then sudo reboot bootloader

@mihael yes it's a bug and probably in the push service. I tried to kill the service process (I don't know any other way to restart a service activated by d-bus) and after an initial failure (it seems that when the service is restarted it don't take in account the task that started it), the second time I sent a mail message the notification used the new sound. To be continued.

@gpatel-fr That´s perfect! Thank you very much for solving this stubborn problem. Now I can put the Pixel 3a into ‘Nokia 3210 mode’ with a single click. Calls and text messages work, and the battery lasts at least three days in this mode. #!/bin/bash # ==================================================================== # NOKIA 3210 MODUS: CPU throttling + All offline services (Pixel 3a) # ==================================================================== if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ]; then echo "ERROR: Please run the script using: sudo $0" exit 1 fi echo "Enable Nokia 3210 mode..." # 1.

is there a way to move to the stable channel? in the settings & wiki i can only find the daily channel..

@Moem said: I will repeat what I've said elsewhere: I will bring this subject to the table in the next meeting of the Board of Trustees. That's what I can do and I'll do that. Until a possible workaround is found, it seems appropriate to notify users of the installer. I have therefore created the following ticket: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/4565 Since other countries may also be affected, it would be helpful to know which ones. I have therefore created the following thread: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12291/internet-access-restriction-for-ubports-installer-list-your-country That's what I can do, and I did it

@Turbolqk said: @kugiigi I see, I haven't used UT in a few months, so I might've missed a few things. These things you think you might have missed have been implemented for years, so even the few months ago that you used UT last, you should have come across them.

Glad I could help, and good luck on your installation!

@developerbayman Thanks! It is now available on the openstore, so I hope people will enjoy it!

@egregiousecan There's some bug that causes random bootloop, forcing shutdown by holding all phone buttons simultaneously helps. I was also not able to boot into Ut 24.04 after upgrading from 20.04, I had to reflash the device with Android to do that.

OK, yet another test. I just tried connecting the Quintus to my main UT phone (the Pixel 3a, Focal). during discovery, the Pixel appears in the list of neighbouring devices on the Quintus (and the Quintus on the Pixel) when I tap the Pixel in the list on the Quintus, I'm asked to confirm the PIN on both devices, which I did the Pixel then moves to the "Paired devices" section on the Quintus, shows connected for a few seconds then returns to "disconnected" on the Pixel, it remains in the list of neighbouring devices (and a notification is re-issued for the last received SMS, which was left unread) Tapping the Pixel then tapping "connect" causes the following: the Pixel shows as connected for a few seconds on the Quintus, then it returns to its "disconnected" state nothing changes on the Pixel on the Bluetooth settings page, but a notification is re-issued for the last received SMS (strange, I know, but I got that same behaviour twice).
