@oldbutndy said: or (2) on another brand, if you brick the main board during UT install, you effectively cannot get a part replacement in any country but France (if I understand that thread correctly). Replace France with EU, then it is correct. I know, as I bricked my FP and had it brought back to life by the said French company, which does hardware costomer service for FairPhone. I do not live in France, but inside EU. It has been a smooth experience, by the way, quite contrary to the bad reputation of FP customer service.

@developerbayman While singing , love is all we need...boot help too. If it serve spreading UT , its a + . Thumb up , simply .

@gandalf said: no ringing tone when making a call yes, that's probably some signal that is not understood by the phone handler, to me it seems linked to the callee's cellular network as ringing works or not consistently, depending on the person I call.

@arubislander said: The thing is that any new support for hardware is likely to land in newer version of the kernel. Halium ports are tied to a specific version of the kernel for ABI compatibility with the drivers the device vendor provides. And backporting those new drivers to the older kernels would probably be more work than it's worth. Ahhh. Excellent point. Thank you. so, for @developerbayman style AI assisted concept to work, either every single hardware driver would have to be created & built into modern kernel (for each phone or all phones), or, to use halium layer for the difficult parts, would mean custom modifying every kernel, for each old device, to use the newly created drivers and still talk to halium for some. So, AI could make this possible, by saving time in some areas. But, it seems this would end up not reducing the huge number of variations for all the different phone models. Am I missing something here ?

@gpatel-fr that is true

In my opinion all bottom (or most) gestures should be optional, meaning their functions should be accessible elsewhere, ideally in the standard or common way like header button. So basically, gestures are like shortcuts. In this context, we can have a gesture that would be "standard" or consistent across apps.

@Linus67 Freut mich, dass es geklappt hat

@danfro said: The power button itself works. It brings up the power menu, but pressing the buttons failed. I have that now and then... But no idea what may be causing it.

@makapaka Nah, not corrupted, just check in a terminal with the command fastboot devices. In fastboot mode you can install the fastboot ROM from here. I have done this on this device a few times. It takes some time so leave the device alone when flashing. Do NOT relock the bootloader as it can brick the device.

@arubislander said: @gandalf Yes there is. In the terminal, navigate to the folder you no longer want the files indexed and execute the following command: touch .nomedia This also works on desktop linux. Thanks, that worked (mostly). I had to delete the data and cache for both the music player and gallery plus do a reboot. They haven't picked up the files again.

Ok. Like I uinstall my debian for lmde, I will try laaaaater. It is possible that I have a probleme with the gpu driver : I try to solve it in lmde.

@arubislander OK. Darn !

@Bolly Not harsh at all. But we had to go through the process of warning the user and seeing where things went. Where they went warranted intervention. The situation has now been dealt with and we have posted our stance on the matter going forwards.

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.

@k.nacke im finally back with the tablet, can you teach me how to port a device

i am doing a app for this in the future called pysync ...i may rename it for UT ...hmmm UT-sync?? .....the app is built but very broken right now and not a priority ...it will do the same thing as syncthing ...well i hope anyways UT design can throw a wrench into things

@Escain this is precisely what i am experiencing as well on fp5! @devs please fix!

@Futura Wow, that's disappointing.
