@Moem said: it's definitely possible to get quite similar specs at very affordable prices similar specs and prices, yes indeed. And the op5t seems more easily unlockable. but not at equivalent features (according to devices.ubuntu-touch.io) Now yes the op5t is an interesting option, if VoLTE is not in use.

@jagdtigger said: are they any errors in journal for the lomiri system settings service? Nothing: phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo journalctl -u lomiri-system-settings -- No entries -- well, there is no such thing as a lomiri-system-settings systemd service so it's to expect that you will find nothing in the systemd journal under this item. I'd say that if you can connect to your UT phone with ssh (it's really more to my liking that the UT terminal to do debugging) you could start bluetoothctl, take a look at the result of 'show' (your controller should be powered, discoverable and pairable), 'device', and if you see your device 'info <bluetooth address>' - if not, see what is displayed when you disable/enable pairing on your Bluetooth device.

@oldbutndy said: I would prefer NOT to use AI ... Then don't. I never use it. I survive somehow. It's been only a very short time that these options have existed at all. Have we already forgotten how to do without them? AI can't help with Ubuntu Touch because there is not enough information on the web for it to work with. It was made to give answers, whether or not the information exists. So it starts to make stuff up. That's not information, it just sounds like it. and how many hours is a person supposed to spend ? Spend fewer hours, ask more questions. We're happy to help, give us the chance to! You're part of a community, there is no need to stumble around in the dark, come sit around the fire with us and we'll swap tales and information.

No problem for devices with MTK Power Bypass. @arubislander said: Unless you don't mind your battery degrading, because the device would be constantly plugged in to the charger, you would have to device a routine for charging and discharging the device.

@Adelaar said: put off sound-notifications for some groups and not for others. I couldn't find how to do that. Is this already somehow possible? Yes: go into the group you want to silence, open the menu from the three dots at the right hand top, and choose the 'mute' setting that you want.

@Moem I remember that a while back, I cannot remember which device at the time, but have duly forgotten over time, mainly thanks to the ludicrous way you have to unlock the bootloader on an Xiaomi device!

@projectmoon said: Mir 2.0 in the last UT Q&A was demonstrated an UT phone running Mir 2, the main blocker is the rootfs device size problem.

@KJU said: About adb&fastboot from the UT terminal, though, any such barrier there? There shouldn't be, no. I happened to pull a file from one UT device to another via ADB. So I know that works. In haven't tested fastboot myself, but I see no reason it wouldn't work.

@gpatel-fr You are correct. "How to enable developer mode" states enable USB debugging (<- me bad - didn't see correctly), ADB, or Android D... Bridge". Sheng-Cheih P.s. i'll try again after shower nap - so sleepy now.

@gpatel-fr I can't see the difficulty. Instructions for clickable installation are the same for 8.7 version: https://clickable-ut.dev/en/latest/install.html (just use pipx command instead of pip3, as proposed also in the book)

@pparent I can't believe it was so easy and I'm sorry to have bothered you and that I didn't figure it out by myself... Thank you!

What is your problem İnitrd failed or Lomiri start error

@Moem yeah ... that is why I replied to MarcelloTogg - to see if cups WORKED for them, or they WANTED cups to work for them.

@DenMoore yes i followed all that and puts that task into que and asks to restart but nothing happens after restart

@Vlad-Nirky Yeah, there is only daily at the moment. I have researched this issue and albeit not common, it is there and something to be aware of.

@kugiigi Hello So I dont have another phone with display out so I cant test that unfortunately. I do agree that the hub seems to be what determines what issues I have. I dont have major issues using any hubs with my asus laptop to charge and display out and the laptop draws more power than the phone. What hub do you use?

You can't install a phone that hasn't been ported. Porting means creating the unique installation files that a specific device needs. The Pixel 4a has not been ported, so there is nothing you can install, as far as Ubuntu Touch goes. If you might be interested in porting it, please see https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting
