@kugiigi I see, I haven't used UT in a few months, so I might've missed a few things. In that case, my suggestions are to add minimizing to the apps on the side bar. This will solve the issue on going to the home screen quick. If apps are allowed to be added to the desktop, that will make the home screen feel like one. It will also separate it from the side bar and the app drawer clearly. My suggestion for the lock screen is to make it look like it is on Android. It's simple and it works - a clock, date and notifications. In addition, the background apps screen could be improved too. If its opened with a swipe up it would be more intuitive IMO. The layout could resemble the tab layout that Firefox on Android uses - simple 2x3 grid with an "x" above each app if you would like to close it. It wold be cool to show free/available ram at the bottom. Finally, a button to close all apps would be great. That way you get: A task bar with opened apps, which allows you to quickly switch between them, or get to the desktop quickly. An app drawer. A desktop with apps of your choice functioning as a home screen. A "running apps" screen which allows you to manage/close apps. One last idea: If the "running apps" is a swipe up, then a swipe right could be used to quickly get back to the desktop too.

@developerbayman Thanks! It is now available on the openstore, so I hope people will enjoy it!

@nbdynl You are not wrong in the sense that governments are less and less fond of alternative ROMs over which they do not have control of the data. And I think in fact that we should not count on laws to help their development and expansion, rather to put the brakes on it. You will have to be more and more clever

@egregiousecan There's some bug that causes random bootloop, forcing shutdown by holding all phone buttons simultaneously helps. I was also not able to boot into Ut 24.04 after upgrading from 20.04, I had to reflash the device with Android to do that.

@brenno.almeida so a premenantly temporary solution. yeah just make sure to refactor at some point. great client as is but i recommend you structure the client around the data not the other way, that way lies pain suffering and keyboard bashing.

@mihael yes it's a bug and probably in the push service. I tried to kill the service process (I don't know any other way to restart a service activated by d-bus) and after an initial failure (it seems that when the service is restarted it don't take in account the task that started it), the second time I sent a mail message the notification used the new sound. To be continued.

@hlbkv said: the device is the Lenovo M10 tablet. Which one from supported devices, X306 or X605 ?

Hi, I am back again. I didn't want to bother you with my long posts until I made it. Still working on it, though. @wally, as I said, my phone sent the SMS but get no response. I hadn't yet updated anything. I was chatting with the Xiaomi customer service and told me two things: Clear data/caché from "Settings" --> "Apps" --> "Manage apps" --> "Xiaomi SIM Activaton Service". Change "Settings" --> "Additional settings" --> "Languages and input" to other language, in my case to "English (UK)". You can try it. I don't know if both are necessary, but were simple to accomplish and so did I. Tried again, SMS sent and paid, and MIXiaomi account was linked to my phone number. Next step, was linking the account to "Settings" --> "Additional settings" --> "Developer options" --> "MIUnlockStatus". For this to work I had to turned off the "Find Device" option: "Settings" --> "MIAccount" --> "Xiaomi Cloud" --> "Find Device" --> Off. And it did the trick. This is all like a puzzle, a jigsaw, an escape room ... Still no luck, though. The device is still "deactivated". Again Xiaomi customer service said that this matters are part of the "Xiaomi Community" and that I should asked there. I found an interesting post, that maybe everybody is aware of, but me. I asked it here before, but it seems that, yes, the unlock request must be made within this app. I made a Google account just to download the "Xiaomi Community" app. In the left lower icon, "ME, go to "Set up" and "Change region" to "Global". Go back to "ME" and "Unlock bootloader" will now be visible. Click on it and mine says "Account must be registered over 30 days". I have mi fresh Xiaomi account, my fresh Google account and one week still to go ...

At a suggestion from @sander I implemented the Content Hub to select the local fallback audio file. The API of https://www.radio-browser.info is great, and also already implemented by the Radio app as far as I can tell from a quick glance. So I would rather ask Patrick Fial (does he have an account on this forum?) to add something like a 'copy URL'-button to the station in the favorites-list of his app. Or create a merge request for this myself, of course. @vlad-nirky Classic2 yes! Not waking up too gently though ;-).

@MrT10001 then I guess it's not for me. Thank you all for the clarification.

@Moem After clearing the saved Wi-Fi connections, power consumption is minimal. [image: 1779434595907-8f6aae21-1785-4f50-8c3a-e94f2ba0bb02-image.jpeg]

I've found the cause of the increased battery drain on Wi-Fi. Clear the list of saved Wi-Fi connections: Go to Wi-Fi -> Wi-Fi Settings -> Saved Networks and tap “Forget” next to all the networks. Then reconnect to your home Wi-Fi network. After that, battery drain in standby mode will return to a minimum of < 2% per hour.

Buddy, is anyone already working on this device? What’s still missing, and how can I help?

Glad I could help, and good luck on your installation!

is there a way to move to the stable channel? in the settings & wiki i can only find the daily channel..

@Moem said: I will repeat what I've said elsewhere: I will bring this subject to the table in the next meeting of the Board of Trustees. That's what I can do and I'll do that. Until a possible workaround is found, it seems appropriate to notify users of the installer. I have therefore created the following ticket: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/4565 Since other countries may also be affected, it would be helpful to know which ones. I have therefore created the following thread: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12291/internet-access-restriction-for-ubports-installer-list-your-country That's what I can do, and I did it
