    My hope for real wayland support is that it improves not rendering stuff when idle. Currently when I run uWolf and power off the screen (even when I focus another app), lomiri permanently uses 30-40% cpu and pulseaudio 15%. [image: 1760535862155-00b16def-826f-477d-8885-69a1d82969f3-image.png] This makes the phone a nice pocket warmer, but also sucks the battery pretty fast. Or currently, might there be a way to tell firefox to drop its rendering while the screen is off or another app is focused, like maybe "minimizing" it in xwayland?

    @fihex123 Please follow the steps for the installation as descripted by arubislander. You could also take a look at this step by step description: https://forums.ubports.com/post/43884 If you have no success, try a different USB cable and a different USB port. If you are using the Windows Installer, you could also check if it works better under Linux. Sometimes the installation does not work the first time.

    @atarilinux Memories of building linux kernel in the 90s The lineage build is taking me a lot more time to build than the ubports one but I'm still plodding along on that for now. I'm hoping the lineage build will be an enlightening endeavour One part about the ubports build that I'm unsure about is the vendor blobs. With the lineage build I extraced the blobs from my phone and added them into the source but I haven't noticed a step like that for the ubports build.

    Hello, I have a similar problem. Every time I get a call, my wired headphones get unplugged and there goes the terrible noise out of them. Call is then ringing out of the built-in speakers. Anybody got the solution?

    @UBportsNews I get the impression that some new people have joined the community recently, mostly as a result of Android's stricter bootloader rules. Have you noticed this, and how are you dealing with it? Are there new and more developers in the project?

    @ikoz I think that I can plug my questions here, don't seem to be incompatible with the topic. I have looked up treble on the internet, I have seen it on f-droid but not on google store, so it's not a standard android feature I understand ? Also, what's up with vndk deprecation for Android 15 ? Has libhybris any chance of being updated to use the new-fangled apexes ? Maybe it's a question that should be asked on the Q&A - or maybe it has already been discussed ? TIA

    The current 24.04-1.x/stable doesn't install properly on my 3axl using UBports Installer 0.11.2. it doesn't result in a valid recovery installed on the device. On the reboot to recovery step, I volume-down until it selects recovery mode, then hit the power button. It sits at the Google logo for a while, then reboots and enters the bootloader again with the reason "No valid slot to boot". Trying to get it to enter recovery again results in it entering the bootloader with the reason "error booting boot.img". Installing 20.04 then OTA upgrading to 24.04 works fine. The current 24.04-1x/daily DOES install correctly through the ubports-installer however. While it's fixed on daily, I mention it because it tripped me up a few times on a few reinstalls. I'm hoping daily gets into stable soon!

    Hi @O.o. It will certainly help others when they see how far you've come. The latest in your other thread <Taking the plunge> about banking apps and others stuff: @O.o. said in Taking the plunge: I've been dithering and hesitating to give Ubuntu Touch a spin for months, and the obscene Google monopoly's decision to kill off deGoogled ROMs and open-source repos finally pushed me over the edge. I've ordered a Fairphone 5, onto which I'll install Ubuntu Touch, and hopefully I will make it my new daily driver. For the things I need that don't exist in the OpenStore, I intend to start developing for Ubuntu Touch. I suppose it had to happen one day. Google made it today. Wish me luck Many thanks and Greetings Mario

    @MrT10001 Thank you for your tip. I changed for two days to the 24.04-1x Daily and it updated automatically to the stable version, now it works like a charm, no more flickering. It seems like the YouTube app has a heavy bug. At this point, I really think that now the time is come to provide all the developers with a reliable device farm. Thanks UT for the magic! Gabriel

    @Bolly said in Where can i highlight spelling errors on app pages on the OpenStore website?: Besides, you had to open an issue in each application, not both in the same application. Thanks for the heads up, I overlooked that mistake. I'll get around to fixing it.

    @Lorenzo said in A few questions on redmi note 9: Are they treated as two separate devices or will they be rolled into one? Xiaomi devices are often wildly different from one another even if the model name and number are very close. Not sure about this one, but if they are separate devices now, they probably need to be and will stay that way.
