@Lumpology the N10 5G has volte support. Since the N100 is the same port, I would have expected that to have support as well. @mario.ch, have you tried it recently with 24.04.1/stable?

Hello, I found out why it was not displaying the version to be installed. You have to click on "install" in order to see the version getting installed, then you select that and click "OK" to start the installation. But as a cautious person, not willing to de facto factory reset the device, I hesitated. Nowhere was it mentioned that there would be another page, where further settings could be made. I feel kind of silly for this, but at the same time it seems like an oversight in the Installer, that you cannot see how many option pages there will be before you actually commit on installing anything.

Any idea how accessing a samba share on another computer could be achieved in 24.04 (noble)? Does one have to install package smbclient in libertine default container noble, or the mentioned cifs-utils package? It seems that the file explorer does not offer connecting to a samba share (+ sign is greyed out). Using 24.04/daily channel on a Fairphone 4.

That was the old UI and doesn't exists anymore. You can modify the code if you're familiar with QML/JS. Or you can download home screens app like Launcher Modular from the store but those acts like a normal app. You also can't disable the Launcher (left side bar) since it is integral to the overal design. May I know what you're trying to achieve and why the current Launcher and App drawer isn't enough?

Not sure if the article is still valid for 24.04 noble. Tried it, didn't notice any difference. Then I discovered app UT Tweak Tool which seems more handy than typing config files. In 24.04 noble, is there any way, even programmatically, to increase or decrease the different text sizes individually, as well as increase and decrease the icon sizes separately from scaling the text(s)? The scaling in app UT Tweak Tool scales everything, causing some text in some apps not being visible if the scaling is big. The default text size is quite small. In desktop mode, it seems that the scaling is different, but if adjusted it adjusts the scaling even in non-desktop-mode. Somehow, it would be desirable to have two different text(s) and icon scalings, one for the device itself standalone, and one scaling when connected in desktop mode. Usually, there is one text size for WindowTitles, one for Documents, one for Interface, one for Monospace and then there is usually a TextScaling factor that adjusts all text sizes (fonts) without having to tinker with each one individually. Hinting and AntiAliasing is usually also part of what you can adjust.

@kristatos My provider is Vodafone, which has no special features. The settings are identical to those of my other email programs.

I tried to enter command in the terminal: sudo snap install libreoffice. It installed. This version of LibreOffice seems to work better than the libertine version I described above. Some dialogs end up partially outside the monitor in desktop mode, but it is indeed usable.

@linhmieu2 said in Black screen issue: [96202.382307] rndis_host 1-1:1.0 usb0: register 'rndis_host' at usb-0000:00:14.0-1, RNDIS device, 52:2c:26:d4:93:1a [96202.390641] rndis_host 1-1:1.0 enp0s20f0u1: renamed from usb0 [96361.641382] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 41 [96361.641557] rndis_host 1-1:1.0 enp0s20f0u1: unregister 'rndis_host' usb-0000:00:14.0-1, RNDIS device These are interesting. Is is disconnecting by itself or you do it?

@oldbutndy Great as you say ,but , i do not code... i share your hope .

@pparent Will let you know if an upgrade fix it and pinpoint what happend. Yes , devs must know . Thanks for min browser .

Hi Martin, sounds perhaps stupid but I have a FP4 and from time to time the same issue and switching off/on flight modus helps. Best+Good luck, Gerd

@bhdouglass Thank you very much!

Sweet!

@lduboeuf I think that I can as well note here the results of my sunday tests with Radicale and UT, it will allow me to retrieve them easily and maybe be of some usefulness to others: it works with 24.04-1.1 stable, but it can be quirky. I used a test server that has already other databases, notably an address book, and these database were proposed as options for sync with the calendar. It's already a problem since an address book is not a calendar. However it got worse since even after selecting the right database, the sync failed repeatedly until I deleted the 'wrong' databases. The server reported a 400 error on some query aimed to the address book (why oh why since I asked specifically to sync with the calendar...) and the whole sync was failed (I guess that Google Calendar has not this problem since it's just a calendar, it does not try to support all kind of Dav databases like Radicale do) This was reported by a red indicator in the UI, however the detailed journal was not particularly enlightening, it reported error codes (10400 ? I guess it was error code 400 with database number 10 - so very Unixy error reporting ) The whole testing was not made easier by the syncevolution user interface, a software that has a conception of 'user friendly' that is decidedly selecting its friends. I had to delete the offending files with 'rm' in the evolution (not syncevolution) directory via the command line to get rid of the excess databases in the UI, while they all got back when I deleted the last one (the calendar). Finally butchering my test server was the right option (and now I don't have any failing test case anymore ).

@Bubu Kein Problem, falls es noch klemmt, sag' Bescheid.

@Vlad-Nirky That is an issue with the device from Xenial and Focal.

@Caedem likely not how it works. The 3.5.1 was the last xenial release. Those 9k focal devices, are those who moved from xenial to focal. So there would be a bit less than 4k xenial left with numbers shrinking. And we need to drop them for security reasons at some point. Or can you justify providing a unmaintained insecure system? Also some older devices will simply die due to hardware breaking.

Viability: hmmm, at the moment: No voice calls (no VoLTE) on Pixel 3A (which WAS a primary supported phone for UT), on UT in USA (which is the third largest phone market by country, or 4th largest by region, after Europe). [alternative: VOIP - NOT available in openstore for most recent version UT] That is pretty NON-Viable, if you want a phone you can make calls on. Is that the fault of the UT teams ? I would say NO, it is the fault of the much larger system cancelling 2G, 3G, (USA & Australia , etc, now, and changing worldwide, with plans in place over 10 years ago) and the fact that the drivers for the radio chips and most others are closed source or Android or whatever. Who would be the ones to fix it ? UT dev teams, if at all. Or, what about WiFi calling ? Not functional. Is that the fault of UT devs, or other main stream code (from the larger base) being unavailable ? OR some phone brands / models NOT supporting required radio bands in some countries. NOT Viable. I think PC's are a better analogy than cars, since we are mostly talking software here, not hardware. if using cars analogy, could mention how air bag manufacturers caused a huge recall problem for a variety of car manufacturers. Q: So, where did UT come from ? A: 1) a gigantic base of hardware and software: major players who recently CANCELLED (in some countries, and in process in others) the fundamental ability of UT to make phone calls, through changes to the larger hardware and software system. A: 2) a few dedicated, volunteer developers who are doing their best to modify code for specific devices to overcome above obstacles.
