        @nico38 Works well on my side. Try to reinstall without wipe the data.

          @nico38 The gps in Ut usually takes 30 seconds to 1 minute to find your position the first time, after that it does it soon.
          Turn on the gps and restart the phone, this is the way to force it to work, then leave it always on, it will only work if an app asks it to.

            Thanks a lot for your fast answer.
            I'll try to re-install on Linux and let you know.

              I already restarted the phone and GPS is on.
              As no GPS interface is found, no app can get it !

                Just reinstall from zero.
                Same "gps interface not found".
                Get the finger print that was laccking previously. Anyway its buggy.
                Don't know what to do to get GPS active.
                Regards

                        Maybe I will re install lineageos or flash a stock Rom to see if GPS is still working.

                          I installed lineageos 17.1 with open_Gapps pico (minimum).
                          The phone is quite reactive.
                          =>GPS OK on Sygic offline navigation app.
                          So I'm not sure I can find the energy for, once again, install UT.
                          I managed to swipe the system partition (!) and was unable to flash a stock rom. Too many "how to" on internet made me confused.
                          My phone is still alive, fortunately, and I think it's safer to keep it as it is now, with this light Android os.
                          Another time, I hope.
                          Thanks a lot for your help guys.
                          Long live to Ubunbtu Touch.

                              I installed UT on lavender via the installer. But a caller from Android hears an echo. Switched from stable to devel channel. UT was updated (version of yesterday), and also updated all apps. But still the same, echo for Android caller. I thought the echo problem was fixed. Can someone please confirm that there should be no echo. Should I reinstall UT? Or how can I fix this caller issue?

                                @wurst Well, I have no echo anymore since OTA-17.
                                But you can try this:

                                setprop persist.audio.fluence.voicecall false
                                

                                Not sure if you have to make this after each boot (best is to try)

                                  @stanwood thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this didn't help. I will try a clean install. How can I see on which OTA I am?

                                      I tried both the devel channel, and the stable. Even reinstalled (without wiping the personal data) to OTA-18. Without success, the non-lavender caller has an echo.

                                      btw, @stanwood, what do you mean, that you have "no echo anymore since OTA-17"? Did you also have an echo on the lavender?

                                        @wurst I had some echo on OTA-16, but fix was released in OTA-17. So I confirm I have no more echo since then.

                                          @stanwood may I bother you again:-) Did also the lavender caller hear an echo? Or both the lavender and non-lavender caller?
                                          In my case (OTA-18) the lavender caller has no echo, the non-lavender caller hears himself. Also the mute microphone does not work on the lavender. Should I reinstall again, also with wiping the personal data? Or flash TWRP, make a factory reset including formating the data, and then perform the ubports installer again? How can I safe and restore the personal data (including the apps, their settings and storage data) on UT?

                                            @wurst Well I don't remind if recipients did hear an echo and I have no way to reproduce this now.

                                            Maybe a more technical person would better help you.

                                              Hi, same issue than nico38, no GPS after a data wipe and fresh install. I have activated GPS (position=on), restarted the RN7 to "force" according to Josele13, but test_gps always returns error "gps interface not found :("
                                              Restarted several times, waited long minutes, but gps always fails.
                                              Maybe did I buy the RN7 that was owned by nico38 😉 ?
