        @luksus Hi Luksus, thanks for your great work!
        Just got a used FP3 and eager to install UT on it.
        Is there something I can contribute?

          @homer Hello guys,
          I installed Ubuntu Touch on the FP3 using ubports installer. Everything went smoothly with installation.

          My only issues with the FP3:

          1. Very(!) very slow charging: In 2 hours it adds ~5% to the battery charge. Not even overnight is enough to fully charge. Tested several different charges with the same result.

          2. Fast discharge, even in standby:
            Before with android 10 the standby runtime on a single charge was 4 days, now it discharges fully in ca. 30hrs.

          Regarding 1) I read in several places that an upgrade in Android 10 caused this slow charging for other FP3 users running stock Android. Could this be connected?

            @homer hi,

            I only encountered charging issues, when I did some tests with waydroid. But after a reboot this was solved in most cases.
            Did you install waydroid or Anbox?

            Here is a screenshot of my battery-usage, actually it is charging very fast...

              Hi,

              I tried 4 different chargers, same result. After some x timed of unplugging and plugging back in, at some point fast charging works.
              Strangely, when I take the cable feom the charger and plug the phone with the cable intu my linux laptop, it always works right away.

                        @fp2andfp3-user oh, sound is working meanwhile? Also in browser? For me, every app that wanted to use audio did freeze... but calling with MS Teams did work though.

                        @Homer just had the same charging issue.
                        On the PC it did not charge, even if the indicator said it was charging... then I used a power-adapter and now it is charging again.
                        Seems like in some cases there is too few power delivered...

                            @luksus in my case the laptop provides less current then mains outlet but is the only reliable. On mains outlet I have to try 5-6 times unplugging and pkugging till it charges...
