@dr1445 I'll just throw it in here again; Telegram didn't like me very much, and even with all the support the very able people here gave, I eventually gave up trying to get in... I went to Matrix, which I've found to be excellent - it's completely open source, very easy to set up and use, and there are some good clients on UT too: fluffy chat and uMatriks
(There's a burgeoning UBports community there - https://riot.im/app/#/room/#ubports:matrix.org)

@dr1445 that line is irrelevant for your current issue, you need to search for lines about how telegram app is trying to connect to Telegram servers.
If you want, you can paste that Telegram log on https://paste.ubuntu.com/ so we can take a look at it (scan it first to see if it has any personal info).

I just installed the telegram app and "registering" (number plus code via sms) worked without any hassles. I can read my groups everything seems functional from a short glimpse

@dr1445 The only other thing I can think of if you wanted to try it would be to reinstall 16.04 dev with wipe option and see what happens, unless that's what you have done. Bit of a pain I know, but you would have a clean nexus5 then, just make sure you back up stuff first.

@dr1445 you're getting a PHONE_NUMBER_UNOCCUPIED error, that means the code you're using is valid but no user with the given number is registered.
Have you used that phone number before on Telegram? Are you using a "normal" mobile phone number?
Things to try. Check out you're using the right country code and the phone number is introduced properly.
If that doesn't work, delete Telegram's cache, config, and data, uninstall Telegram app, and install it again.
Good luck
Edit to add: check out that you have a good internet/data connection too
Edit again to add this too
If you have never registered that phone number before, you can try to register it first on a non-UT phone or use Telegram Desktop on your computer and register that number before activating Telegram app on your UT phone. -

I had a struggle with my meizu ID like that
+1 for USA,and it needed the 1 before the rest of the number.Meizu automatically put the extra number in,and I did not.

i have not used the phone # on telegram nor have i entered a 1 before the #. i can pull the sim card and use it on an android phone to install telegram if adding the 1 does not work.
