    @Shriharsh-Kulthe Which version of Ubuntu touch are you using? Personally, I'm running the latest OTA 24.04-1.2 on this phone. VoLTE is supposed to work only when using a single SIM, but I couldn't get it to work - maybe it's the old SIM. I won't be changing the SIM because I use the phone in dual sim mode, so waiting in line at the operator doesn't make sense to me.

    Question: Are there any thoughts/discussions going on (or that have gone on in the past) about widening the number of apparmor permissions to allow for more fine-grained control of things? Some examples: Permission to disable app suspend so the user doesn't have to do it themselves. Permission to start background services. Could maybe be implemented similar to read/write paths with the ability to execute specific commands.

    @projectmoon There's a setting for that inside Ambot however it only works in unconfined apps. Not though that there apps that use the affected components in unusual ways so the hint may show in weird places e.g. Music app, the hint shows above the currently playing bar In regards to the global back action, we can implement it in the toolkit, you just have the back button trigger with the back button but we can't really enfore it everywhere else so it will be kind of pointless if it only works in certain apps

    @oldbutndy As far as I know, if your bootloader isn't unlocked the the installer will inform you about that. As for unlocking the bootloader, steps for doing so may vary widely between devices and that guide is usually present in their xda threads, if not then maybe I'll try to look into that too, tho again these efforts are tedious and it will take time. Right now I'm almost done with updating the device listings and by today or tomorrow I'll ask for a mr for my changes. Once this is done we will figure out things further

    Nice idea, that’s actually pretty clever! I’ve never thought about using the phone as a remote audio sink like that. Did you notice much delay in real use, especially for videos?

    “Sounds really interesting! If the UT port on the FLX1 turns out stable, it could be a solid alternative. Dual boot support is a nice bonus too—curious to see if they’ll eventually make it work with the main storage

    @lduboeuf thank you very much for taking this on, Lionel. When I looked at the code a few years ago, I was overwhelmed by the complexity.

    I tried with another display, it works! It seems, for some odd reason, my main display is the cause. Thank you all for help! P.S.: It's really cool to have this working, so I can now make FP5 my main device. Ubports is such a great project, after leaving Windows to Manjaro, I now can leave the Google ecosystem too and gain back control of my hardware. Just to mention, waydroid works as well very nice. Not everything is perfect (I have issue with bluetooth), but what it offers, is good enough for me, I can live with the workarounds for the rest, until things are fully working sometime in the future (hopefully).

    @playforvoices Hello, Would this apply now in 2026? I thought that the bootloader should be left unlocked.

    @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.
