          @carrabelloy If you go into System Settings, Wifi, Select your network (or it may be under Previous networks) Then Forget Network. Switch off and restart then entre details again it should work. There is also this group https://t.me/ut_on_fp4 for help and testing.

            @lakotaubp It's empty, so I know what's going on with wifi and how I'm supposed to turn it off, it's not like my old cell phone that can be turned off. Come from Germany

              @lakotaubp Unfortunately, the modem does not work or the certificate is not available in the settings because it was not installed. I don't know why the whole thing can be installed for me, but the most important thing is missing.

                The Fairphone 4 has almost everything to become a very good UT smartphone in short/medium term because my feeling is that the team of developers behind it is very motivated to make it that way. πŸ™‚

                    Agree with you. Hope, to me, some improvements will come quickly, like waydroid or support of esim too πŸ™‚

                      I wish Fairphone also becomes available in other regions. I'm still looking for a long term UT main phone. My Xperia X's RAM can't hold up with my usage anymore πŸ˜… And my Fxtec Pro1-X purchase seems to be a big mistake πŸ˜„

                        I won't say 'a mistake' but a 'bet' at the moment T with that part of uncertainty. Potentially, it's true that the Fairphone 4 inspires confidence as well as the Volla range developed by Hallo Welt System (actively supported by UBports of course).

                            @jukebox3711 I don't use ebay and I don't even know if it's available in my country πŸ˜„ Also, I don't have money anymore, maybe I'll sell my Pro1-X but let's see.

                                @lakotaubp Thank you a lot! This port is wonderful, it works almost everything!
                                It's my first Ubuntu Touch experience, so I'm not sure how to upgrade (will I receive an OTA upgrade or should I use the ubports-installer again?).
                                EDIT: Never mind, just received an OTA. This is WONDERFUL. I confirm call audio is working.

                                Besides the audio call problem, I found the fingerprint sensor not working (not a big deal). Everything else is working: GPS, Wifi, Bluetooth audio (tested with Fairphone Earbuds), tethering and so on.
                                All the 3 cameras are recognized in the browser and are working fine. Unfortunately the Ubuntu Touch Camera app doesn't support the double back camera and uses only the primary (i think it should be trivial to implement a dropdown showing all the cameras like in the browser at this point).

                                Also, I'd like to send a little donation, do you accept ko-fi, paypal or other means?

                                Thank you very much for your work!

                                      @domubpkm Sorted thanks. Another issue to double check copying links from Morph, only one allowed at a time without closing πŸ˜…

                                        @lakotaubp Done! πŸ‘
                                        The build is pretty solid atm. Only issue I could notice was the GPS not fixing every time I tried to use it. Not sure how to reproduce the issue, I'll keep an eye on it and if I find a pattern to reproduce it I'll file a bug on the gitlab repo issues tracker.

                                          @penguin86 GPs would fail in UT side if it was used in Waydroid, just saying... Needs reboot then

                                            @flohack I don't think that's the case: I'm not using Waydroid and the GPS behavior is more an hit-and-miss: yesterday I had a fix in the morning through the window with no problems, then in the afternoon I was outside and couldn't make it work. When back home, I unlocked the phone and noticed I left the app open: it fixed instantly, even if I was in a room with no direct sky view. The phone was never rebooted in the meantime.
                                            Under "location" I see only "Using GPS", so I don't think it used my home Wifi to obtain the position (but I may be wrong).
                                            This week end I'll be more time outside, so I'll try to reproduce it.
