    @hlbkv said: @gpatel-fr The installer doesn't seem to detect the device this happens to me when trying to reinstall my Fairphone 5 that works correctly both before reinstalling and after, so it's more a shortcoming of the installer than a blocker. @hlbkv said: states one should have Android 11 installed here it's more mixed unfortunately. If you had already installed 24.04-1.2 and it worked correctly (as far as the device page for this device states it) I think that you can proceed nonetheless since all that the previous Android version is leave the correct device drivers in the Android partitions, so if it worked before it should work after. A caveat is that a hardware problem could have developed on your device in this case there is not much that software can do. After all, so far you are the only person having such trouble with updating to 1.3 from 1.2. If not, it would be wise to give more details on the previous situation before going further.

    @domubpkm To stop the script: sudo pkill backup-ip.sh It's true that I've not taken into account the case where LTE is activated, but mobile data is disabled.

    @Vlad-Nirky @gpatel-fr @sander Thank you for testing & glad it works for you as well ;-). I've made a note of the radio-browser API, and I'll check.

    @aimar Excuse the slow reply. I was trying to avoid updating too, as my device was already on the required Android version, but eventually when nothing else worked, I did upgrade. I still didn't get the SMS. @pleoni I forgot that Whatsapp was given as an option, but that does seem familiar now.. perhaps this could be a solution? Not that I want to get Whatsapp, but maybe I coils start an account with a cheap, temporary phone number just for unlocking the phone.

    @jojumaxx I have a similar issue, maybe not absolutely identical: I had to fiddle a lot to get my new Volla Quintus paired with my Linux laptop (tried several times, turned BT on and off on the phone), then eventually they accepted to pair. Now, a few days later, the laptop is still listed as a paired device, but I can't get the phone to reconnect to it (I've not activated the auto-connect feature as that's not desired). I haven't tried bluetoothctl either, but I'll do and report back. The Quintus is on 24.04-1.3, also no dual boot.

    @sysadmin Same question (more or less) Is there a way to install UT by downloading the necessary files beforehand? There are an increasing number of people living in countries (such as Russia) that block our servers and are unable to complete the installation.

    Thanks to some great feedback from Vladimir, I was able to fix a bug: an issue with loading a saved game, which stemmed from an actual issue with clicking on a tool that cost too much. Also, I was able to add a feature he suggested, which was a button to return to the game from the main menu. Testers and feedback always welcome! The original post has been updated with new build links.

    Just pushed a new release for this app: Better image and video controls. Pinch to zoom, double tap, and other gestures. (thanks @kugiigi , heavily inspired in your commit for the gallery app) Upgrade some libraries Don't crash the person list page if a person does not have a thumbnail Support servers with subpaths (like https://example.com/immich) Give a better error to the user if app cannot connect to Immich on login

    @pleoni ah yes I missed that sorry about it. The problem is that your device has an old kernel, so probably you should try to setup a policy V1 as stated here

    Since you care about it, you are the most likely person to make it happen. In order to make it happen, what's needed is: the ability to unlock the bootloader the kernel source someone who is willing and able, and has the skills or is willing to learn and who has the device in hands. If all of these conditions are met, it could happen. Since this question is not about any existing port or port-in-progress, it will now be moved to the 'off topic' category.

    @Linus67 it needs to be ran as root. Sudo is interactive in terminal so it won't work, but pkexec is the GUI equivalent so it should launch a popup for the password. Alternatively set the suid bit of the script to make it always run as root without password (and ensure the file is not writable by phablet as that would allow local privilege escalation).

    @StephPTi Now you can see in Greenline: Meta stores all your actions on WhatsApp. If you like a comment in a group, that contact is stored in the database linked to your phone number. You can view all these records now in Greenline. You now have a complete list of the phone numbers (contacts) to which you have ever reacted or commented. This is part of the metadata that WhatsApp stores permanently on its servers: when you interacted with whom. This means that most of what you delete in WhatsApp is simply hidden. In a future version of Greenline, it may be possible to hide this ‘metadata’.

    @jojumaxx about your first question, how about the standard way of deleting stuff in UT, swipe to the right and (normally) a red trash icon is displayed) ? about your second question, here is a screenshot on my device: add to places works fo me! [image: 1778766057725-addtoplaces.jpg] AFAIK you have to be IN the folder you want to add.

    @Peyo il est possible qu'il s'agisse d'un problème de focus. Avec mon Fairphone 5 j'ai eu longtemps des soucis sur les photos à faible distance (à peu près moins de 50cm) qui étaient toutes floues, j'ai utilisé le truc de basculer en mode caméra puis revenir en mode photo, mais une manoeuvre plus simple est de tapoter un peu l'écran ce qui indique au logiciel d'esssayer d'améliorer le focus. L'appareil photo sous Waydroid n'a pas ce souci sur le même matériel, le focus est correct immédiatement à toute distance.

    @UT-downunder Windows, yes. Linux users have gotten it to work either using a VM (requires a VM with USB port pass through. Some work, some don't), or by installing Windows to Go on a USB drive. Alternatively, there is a way to do it in linux somewhere in the ubPorts OP6 forum, but I haven't used it in years (I use Windows To Go on a USB SSD-Transend thumb drive SSD). Or just borrow someone's machine for a few.
