      rethinking about your problems in flashing UT to your phone, I wonder if you could have hardware problems, or possibly either flashing with a flaky USB cable, or with an unsufficiently charged battery.

        Hello @gpatel-fr ,

        When you press the button, does the screen turn briefly black: Yes
        and is there a sound: yes
        if you scroll the screeb to the left to the photo roll features, do you see results: Only for videos BUT it first ends the app and if i go back to the app of Gallery, only the videos appear.

        USB cable, if that was the case, when installing, i guess it decompress the files. If they were corrupted, it will not work.
        battery: 100% charged and the usb cable was keeping that way.
        hardware problems: do not think so.

          @gpatel-fr now i have a new problem: i activate the "rotate disable" and deactivated. Not the screen is always in landscape. Only after i rebooted, it went to portrait. And know the feature appears to be working fine.

            yet what you described was exactly this happening: installing did go to the finish without reporting an error, but wifi was not working; and after retrying, wifi and cellular happened to work.

              @gpatel-fr flow:

              • installed UT over android 15 (my mistake)
              • reflash the android 13 from Fairphone 5
              • reinstall UT (2 or 3 retries)
              • wifi and BT and mobile operator now works

              Just made the "search for updated && made the update".
              Problems remains.

                The point is that it is not normal to retry an installation. If your hardware is good, it should work the first time or never.

                  ls -lh $HOME

                      @arubislander do you know how to use the cursor keys in the terminal? These command keys do not appear in the virtual keyboard. Thank you.

                        cursor keys:

                        option 1: use the hamburger menu and select scr, then scroll to the right you'll find arrows
                        option 2: touch the screen, press and move gently your finger right/left

                          @Kadafi OK, so it doesn't seem to be a case of wrong permissions for the Picture folder itself. Could you also do a:

                          ls -lh ~/Pictures/

                          and in e again post the results?

                                @arubislander no ideia! It is what appears! I checked the data in the phone and it is the correct one.

                                    Is it worth considering starting again?

                                    Installing the correct Fairphone Andriod version listed on the ubuntu-touch website and following the install procedures for 24.04 stable?

                                    I have none of the issue you mentioned in your multiple threads with my fp5.
                                    The only outstanding issue is the fingerprint reader for me at the moment on stable.

                                      @sixwheeledbeast since i stop using windows, i tend not to follow the path of "reformat and reinstall". Also, i had already an updated and that should also had overwrite the original install. Also, on the first time, i did reinstall 3 times (no cable issues and no hardware issues).

                                        since a doubt has been expressed on the Android version, could you give us the return in the terminal of

                                        getprop | grep vndk

                                        to see what's the previous Android version ?

                                          How is not using Windows relevant to the suggestion to start again?
                                          You're have plenty of issues that no-one else is experiencing, I'd say it's a sensible first step.
                                          If something was borked during installation or you had the wrong Android version then the UT installed on top of that, may not function correctly.
