    @domubpkm, my comment is out of subject, but there are alternative to play-store (if you need it). aurora store is a miror without google account. f-droid is store for open-source apk. and every things works on lineageOS. (but also the spyware).

    Ah- and Sidenote on "bricking"/restoring device: Lenovo offers an good "Software fix" software on their webiste that can restore your Lenovo device. You can install that, connect the tab via USB, give it the serial of your device, and it downloads the latest firmware and resets everything..the only thing tricky- as usual- I believe you might need fastboot mode at some point- which is POWER + VOLUME DOWN buttons at the same (USB disconnected) and then the lenovo enters fastboot mode and is ready a) to get out of this endless loops and b) receive the firmware. For me, it restored Android 11, the right one for UBports.

    I apologies- got it working! I had two important obstacles, one related to the UBport: 1.Win10 somehow has a problem with talking to tablets and seems to require an extra driver, "MTK Driver"- I haven't verified this myself, but switched to Linux mint, where adb worked nicely and found the devices always. Anyway odd is that adb showed the device before I started Ubports, but later lost the connection somehow. 2.The TB-X306F could not get unlocked as described in the docu with "fastboot flashing unlock" but "Fastboot flashing unlock_critical". It seems, that command has changed somehow- my latest firmware before Ubports came was from 2024. No one talked about this parameter in the forums, but I found finally, that it seems to be an old syntax- may be Lenovo reused an old firmware, so that this came back. This changed command should be noted in the related documentation, not a problem of Ubport itself- it's just difficult to find, as there's no clear feedback that the unlocking failed partially, and Ubport itself only realizes it late in the process. I have now Ubuntu 20.04 on it. Impressed, that I got it working, but it was not trivial.

    The Indicator Upower now supports battery charging limit on MTK and other devices - don't forget to reinstall indicator if this feature didn't work in older releases.

    @bunchy7s I'm not watching a video. Did you have the correct ROM on the device before installing Ubuntu Touch? As in, the one that the device page says needs to be installed?

    @Leroy_Linux We experimented with SIP in the dialer and it is capable of making and receiving VoIP calls. Audio routing needs troubleshooting as it could only either send or receive audio, not both. Also, it could stand to be integrated better so that it is prettier and the dial buttons show up during calls. Any help with that would be appreciated. We have a telegram group just for this subject.

    The opposite works as well. You can use your phone as remote mic using ssh pactl load-module module-pipe-source source_name=virtualmic file=/tmp/virtualmic format=s16le rate=44100 channels=1 ssh phablet@'phone-ip' [-i identity_file] "arecord -f S16_LE -r 44100" |cat > /tmp/virtualmic

    @WillemHexspoor thanks for the precisions, now my guess is that I have yet not seen this problem because I have not used GPS a lot in the recent past.

    @chaosmaou T-Mobile works well for me. I tried Ting first, but had issues. I didn't bother to troubleshoot knowing from others that T-Mobile worked. So, I just switched and happy with the results. Good luck!

    @sixwheeledbeast Not to nitpick here but the Toyota Tacoma had 2 recalls to swap the chassis that did just that. You might have got a new vehicle if they agreed to buy it back.

    hello we have an exchange about the indicator area. we propose 3 questionning way : Is it a good idea to add a usb menu : to connect the device (charging/file exchange/connection sharing) ? we found there is too much icons. so,what about 'group' some indicators by familly ? link : for usb link, bluetooth... interface : keyboard, rotation, (external display in the futur) the usage of the file icon seems not clear : no many apps use it. is it pertinent to group it with somthing else ? thanks. https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12034/usb-parameters-on-headband

    @kugiigi said: You can try Wireguard. It doesn't have GUI yet in UT but the commands are simple. Download the Wireguard config file from your Proton account. Rename it to wg0.conf. Then run nmcli conn import type wireguard file wg0.conf To connect: nmcli conn up wg0 To disconnect: nmcli conn down wg0 Thank you this worked. Interestingly the forum webapp does not conncect on wg. Is here another way to toggle wg connections on and off than using the terminal? They are not listed as VPN connections.

    @projectmoon The main problem that currently prevents using Wayland for electron apps, is that the On-Screen-Keyboard cannot work with GTK+Wayland+Mir1.x . By the way the Merezhyvo Browser ( popriatary app ! ) is an electron app using Wayland, but it has found it's way around this problem by coding it's own OSK inside the app itself, which is not really a way I want to go. (Especially for Signal because I want to modify the code only as strictly necessary, and also because for Signal there are other problems when it comes to using it in Wayland mode with Mir1.x). Anyway I've already tried it (see in the Signal UT topic), and reallu the best is to wait for Mir2.x, I hope it won't be in too long.
