Hi all! @arubislander nice to hear, and to be clear, no irony needed. In a worse scenario nobody except a bunch of savvy developers would have tried using Ubuntu on that specific phone. It is good to know that it actually can work in a friendly way as expected. Unfortunately I have run into more problems since writing my last post here: My "easy" 7 step dance course only works while running the android 9 version that is supposed to be prefered by the instalation program. After that the installation program has flashed it's own version of boot.img using fastboot, the recovery i nowhere to be seen anymore. Neither with my seven step tango or by any other more traditional means. After consulting a few search engines without any luck I went the ai-chatbot way and got the suggestion that some android implementations keep the recovery code in the boot.img, if that is the case with the suggested android version, the instruction needs to be updated. I am going to download a few other builds of android 9 from Google in hope that I may strike "gold", using one of them. On my XL the recovery worked fine after flashing boot.img. If that does not work, I will have to figure out whatever magic the install tool is using and then flash things in another order to get all the higher level stuff installed before I flash the boot-program. If somebody could help me figuring out where the low level install procedure is documented (the one implemented by the user friendly installation program) and where I can download the installation files, then you will make me quite a happy man... By the way, am I overly adventurous if I try the 24.04.2 nightly? /r

@imparfaitinconnu do you have adb/ssh access to your device? If so, do you know how to make the system image writable?

@pparent after a week of testing, the battery usage looks normal.

Thanks for the answer. Is this a bug that appeared in Ubuntu Touch 16.04 or 20.04?

@developerbayman Just one question: Any reason you don't host this project on a git platform, like "Github" or "Gitlab" or "Bitbucket" ? Maybe having to go to google drive links may look a bit weird for some people. Maybe it could help also to publish more screenshots, or even better a video of your application running on Ubuntu Touch. Also I'm sure you will get feedback when you publish the app on the openstore, but it might not be ready yet? Thank you!

@Satanas1275 While we are all for seeing more and all kinds of Linux on phones, soliciting help on a Postmarket OS port is very much off topic for this forum, wouldn't you agree?

@pparent copy that. thanks!

@gpatel-fr So far it seems that reliably I will get a ring when calling somebody from the same network as me. From Lucky Mobile, in Canada, it rings when I call someone using Lucky Mobile or Virgin Mobile, both of which are MVNOs on the Bell Network. I don't think I'm hearing any rings when not doing that. Calling 1-800 numbers yielded mixed results, but consistently it would ring or not ring for a given number.

@jojumaxx I figured that was the case! I've also edited the topic title, for better searchability.

@jojumaxx im so glad you suggested this this is the direction i think im gonna go

found a fatal bug in the container launch ill have to go over it its my day off when i wake up ill prob fix it actually i forgot to inckude some important files

@tahirmehmood Did you use the standard browser? If so, try the beta version that is in the Open Store. https://open-store.io/app/morph-browser-qt6.ubports

@sahirul not yet, but is planned. For now, qr code only

@Shadowbird2468 It was proven possible, but, due to different processor architectures, running desktop apps on mobile phone would require emulation layer. And, due to most games were made for windows, it requires running it through x86 Wine. And, due to differences in graphics APIs, it also requires using OpenGL to GLES translation where it is present. In fact some progress has been made at this direction. Several emulators exist for Android (and might work in Waydroid as well), there's at least one application related to that in OpenStore, and there's already Steam distribution for ARM in snap store. Don't know about graphics api translation though.

@Leroy_Linux honestly we all just need to stand our ground and in one voice say no
