    @nbdynl That sounds great. Does it also work with no apps open tho? Is this a MariKit or Lomiri Plus option?

    Account set and paired to the phone. @chromiumos-guy Honestly I didn't understand a word @kln_nurv The last link provided by @wally states "At the end of 2024, Xiaomi will start to check the regions in which your Mi account is used. For example, if your phone or tablet is designed for the Chinese domestic market, you will only be able to unlock the bootloader with a Chinese account. If you try to unlock the bootloader of a Chinese phone from a global account, you’ll get an error: ‘The place where the account is registered does not match the place where the phone is sold’." I hope Global accounts don't have the weird limitations you mentioned. The MiUnlock version from the Ubports devices site didn't work properly in my laptop, so I downloaded the last version from the last link provided by @wally. I can launch the app but cannot connect to the phone. "Mi Unlock not connected to the phone. Possible driver issue or incorrect application folder name. Also possible bad smartphone-PC connection due to poor quality cable." I guess it is the cable. I realized that i skipped "Submitting an application through the Mi Community app.". Is it necessary?

    This morning after having tested that the new version gallery problem was indeed 'fixed' by returning to the previous stable, I wanted to upgrade to RC and again I see the lack of upgrade channels. For screenshot see https://forums.ubports.com/post/95155 . This may be a new problem, or not. I have never wanted to switch back and forth like that previously. Edit: I restarted the phone again and the channels were back to normal. This is a transient problem. Edit 2: checking again, the Update parameters screen is displaying 'Channel: candidate', the system state displays '1.2' and checking updates says that everything is up-to-date. This is a bit messed up Edit 3: after 2 hours of trying of updating, failing, restarting, switching channel, restarting, failing, I finally discovered in a flash of insight into the minds of advanced developers that the update process is actually testing the update history, the things that are displayed below 'recent updates', and this case of getting RC and stable back and forth has never been really thought to be possible (after all, regressions are something that have never been seen for more than one time or two in all the eons of software development), and so unlocking the switch to RC again needed to delete the previous update history. So I'm finally on RC3 again. Oups, edit 4: RC2

    @Lalle75 said: Hi. I got my Volla now for some hours. I'm working with Linux (Debian and Ubuntu) for >10 years now, but I cannot achieve anything on this system. Hello Lalle, I think the answers provided by UT FAQ 8 (https://t.me/UTFAQ/10) may be useful for you: "8. Can I use apt on Ubuntu Touch? yesn't [yes and no]. Ubuntu Touch is built with privacy, reliability and stability accross a wide range of devices in mind. It is crucial that the developers are able to quickly reproduce and fix bugs across devices to ensure no faulty update ever makes it to the stable channel on any device, ever. To achieve this the rootfs is read-only. This allows UBports to provide image based updates. When you run an OTA update it replaces the read-only part of the operating system. Userdata is not a part of that, so you don't lose that or installed apps. But apt is not designed for a read-only rootfs, so as a result it will attempt to write to the read-only portion of the operating system. While you can remount your rootfs as read-write, because apt is writing into a normally read-only part of the system, an OTA update can partially overwrite the changes apt made. This can result in a broken system. So using apt essentially means you are running your own fork of Ubuntu Touch. You can install apps from the OpenStore app. How to get updates is described in our usage channel. there are other package managers that are made to work with a readonly rootfs, current working examples include snap and crackle (https://github.com/tuxecure/crackle)."

    @CL_Linuxx porting UT to a new device may be a task for a UT beginner but not for a Linux beginner. If you don't have compiled many Linux kernels and have no clue about Android design and development you will have a mountain to climb.

    @R66F root, you'd probably need to use a custom waydroid gsi with SU binaries. from there just install one of the many root modules/frameworks that let you spoof app id's

    Hello, I meet difficulties to flash the recovery on oneplus6. I notice that in can't flash the recovery using fastboot flash recovery file.img But, it works using : fastboot flash boot file.img If you comes from any linuxOS (PostmarketOS or Mobian), flash the dtbo too. It works with the one of /e/OS (https://images.ecloud.global/community/enchilada/) you found it in the recovery zip file. Using this way, i came back from mobian to OxygèneOS... And Ubuntu touch !

    @tr4in33 - unfortunately, it is very unlikely any Unihertz product will ever get a decently functioning port for Ubuntu Touch, because that company is absolutely horrible (and in fact in violation of the licensing) for ever posting the kernel source for its devices. Best regarfs, Steve Berson
