    @bhdouglass Ok thank's a lot it worked! https://open-store.io/app/touchpiano.pparent I promise I will use Qt6/Qml6 very sparingly, until the library is available inside the OS. In the mean time this app can serve as a demonstration Qml6 app. Ps: But what might be usefull is to start building a a Qt6 version of Whatsweb, that is currently broken.

    @Futura The low level flash tool doesn't work with a VM, even with USB passthrough. You need a Windows machine, running windows as the OS. The EDL cable is handy, but not really necessary.

    @sermountain Dualboot with UT is not supported by UBports but directly from Volla. You may get some help here of other users, but not very likely since Volla support does not participate in this forum.

    @Fizz said: I note the devices list seems to be a bit out of date though. It says the Pixel 3a does not support the Noble release Yes, that's correct, someone in the know would need to update that on GitLab.

    @pparent 1046 is an user in the Halium container, it's not so obvious to identify what it does. Rather than top, I use htop (installed with crackle) to make it easier to see what it's used for. by looking at the other processes it runs.

    @nbdynl Apps like Signal or Whatsapp will maintain a background network connection with their servers weather or not they are calling. On top of they, if they wanted to spy on on you they could leverage that to start a fake invisible call/connexion, so that they can keep spying quietly when the phone is suspended. I don't think whether or not there is "an active forground connection", can be used to determine reliably if the app is legitimate to record the microphone when the screen is off...

    @chaosmaou VoLTE only landed on N10 in mid November, <4 months ago, so yes, it's worth trying again now that VoLTE is working. Nobody is guaranteeing that it works perfectly / with all carriers, but so far results seem very good.

    Hello, personnaly, I m found of the fossify apk (on android - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fossify.calendar/ ). Calendar, note, contacts... they are great quality and cover a large needs. most of all, it will help androids (lineage) users to switch to UT... I don't know if the code is realy open and how difficult it is to port them (i have no any competences in app building). but it could be agreat advantage for UT ?

    protonvpn in Libertine Out of curiosity I tried to install protonvpn in Libertine container in the same way one would install it on Ubuntu Desktop. Protonvpn didn't work at all, showing loads of dbus related errors. Libertine runs in chroot according to python3 error messages, which apparently complicates a lot of systemd related things. Maybe it is not impossible to fix, but I kindly request more skilled developers to look at the errors protonvpn is throwing to figure out what to do about it. Hopefully the protonvpn team realizes that they need to help out and make their software run also on Ubuntu Touch, not only regular Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE and Archlinux. samba or secure ftp server with wifi hotspot I have seen discussions that there is a need for a solution where Ubuntu Touch offers some kind of server connectivity, either samba or secure ftp with wifi hotspot so that another device can share files. I think that this kind of server needs to have an ON/OFF button functionality so that it only functions when needed. The Ubuntu Touch wifi hotspot serves as an access point for another device to obtain an ip address so that a connection to the server can be made with either smbclient, secure ftp client or similar. I invite readers to share their knowledge about how such a functionality could be achieved on Ubuntu Touch. Conclusions from desktop mode tests As you may see, most software that you find on a linux desktop does actually run well enough on Ubuntu Touch, although inside Libertine container. You can get most things done that you normally would use a desktop, laptop or notebook for. The absolute biggest headache is the difficulty to get copy-paste to work well between all windows, especially to and from LibreOffice. Screenshot functionality like xfce4-screenshooter or gnome-screenshot is wanted. It is used to grab a single window or to select a region and save it, or copy the screenshot directly into a chat. Printscreen key on a regular wired PS2 keyboard takes a screenshot of the whole screen and saves it in ~/Pictures/screenshots. I didn't get xfce4-screenshooter or gnome-screenshot to work as intended. Automated, simple VPN that regularly adjusts parameters and autoselects a good node is probably wanted by some users. An example of that would be the functionality of protonvpn, which exists on Android and linux desktops. Ability to control random MAC-addresses on public wifi networks is wanted. I read somewhere that Ubuntu Touch offers some privacy concerned MAC-address shifting when moving between public wifi networks, but it would be nice to get this verified by someone who knows more about how it works in detail. I think that Ubuntu Touch with Libertine can be used as a PC, a linux desktop, already now. It passed the test to be considered good enough. Once the copy-paste functionality works to satisfaction, it will be many user's choice. If the device supports USB3.0 display out so that you can connect Ubuntu Touch to an external monitor, mouse/touchpad, keyboard and external harddisk or pendrive, you really get the PC experience already in my opinion as a newbie myself. For USB2.0 devices, it would be good to know exactly what is needed to conect to needed periferals including a monitor and compare the cost to a device which offers USB3.0 display out. I have come to understand that the USB-port is used quite a lot more than one expects, which makes it the most sensitive part that eventualy will stop working at some point. RAM memory 6GB seems to be enough for all the use cases I went through. Most of the time I see 2.5-4.2 GiB RAM used, with the absolute top at 5.9 GiB. Thunderbird and Firefox do not eat as much RAM as I thought they would do. Hopefully these use cases give readers a bit more feeling for what Ubuntu Touch in desktop mode can offer at the present, using snaps and Libertine container. It gets better each day, as more and more users start to experiment with it and share their findings. Conclusions about native mode Desktop mode on a 24 inch monitor offers several ways to increase text sizes so that people with not perfect eyesight can adjust the zoom. The native mode when using the mobile device screen by itself does not offer as much scaling capability as the desktop mode without messing up the look and feel. As a consequence, it may at times be quite difficult to see miniature text smaller than 1mm without a magnifying glass. If Ubuntu Touch is meant for a larger target group, each app has to implement text scaling capabilities so that text can be shown bigger for those who need it without ruining the functionality of the app. Preferably, the text size settings should be set in Ubuntu Touch settings on a global level, which are then used by each app to show the text in the desired size. Android has this functionality from very early versions and new Ubuntu Touch users are going to look for these text scaling settings in the Ubuntu Touch settings. I think users would benefit from an app naming convention that clearly indicates if a native Ubuntu Touch app is supposed to run in desktop mode for improved visibility. As an example, Linphone that is usable on a device screen size five or six inches should be called Linphone. Linphone-Desktop clearly indicates that the app needs desktop mode for visibility reasons. Every app meant to be used on the device without desktop mode should be able to display large text for better visibiltiy without falling over the edge. Another example: Brave browser should be visible and usable on a small screen, otherwise it should be called Brave-Desktop to indicate that you need desktop mode to use the app for better visibility. Yet another example: Thunderbird should be usable on a small screen versus Thunderbird-Desktop which is supposed to be used in desktop mode for greater visibility.

    @DJac said: Hi, i notice that I have a display issue : probably beaucause I have a little screen (sony xperia X). on the welcom page, i can't choose to reject definitively the microphone... I have the same probleme on SignalUT thanks for the work already accomplished. Thank's for reporting I will look into it. I will probably publish a new version soon, with few fixes. Ps: note thought that it will always come back after erasing your datas, and sometimes when updating the app (if the update requires it).
