@arubislander said: Although, to be fair the creator of the WhatsNew app has taken measure to suspend the app when it looses focus as well I've not done that specifically in whatsnew. What happens is that normally when an electron app is not anymore in foreground it goes into a "throttling" mode meant to keep operating the website but with lower resources. This is a feature from chromium. That being said I have no idea why XWayland/electron apps don't get suspended by default. For Signal UT or Whatsnew it is handy to get background notifications though. The behaviour encountered by @smobilesoft (high CPU usage) is not normal , I've not been able to observe it myself, and it seems since he reinstalled the app it has gone. So this is a bit strange.

@Homer in any language you can shell out to systemctl --user stop myserv - or use a systemd api if your language has a module for that. Edit: forgot 2 things: whatever you use (node.js or anything) the way to go to run a server process in your app is with a systemd user service. the code I provided is just an example. For your app you will have to pick carefully where you set your data, not straight under the root like I did. Probably under .local for persistent data or under .cache for transient data.

@projectmoon said: Though in general, I don't see many payment sites asking for your password at time of check-out, at least once you're at the payment screen. eh, maybe I didn't pay attention on this and only sms-code is sufficient. I have to check it. I'll have to dig into waydroid, but maybe some time in the future - hey, it is not so begginer stuff, right? Thanks for help and nice chat!

@formel Thanks for reply, fortunately I don't need to recover android (11) right now, asking just in case. I'll use lenovo recovery if needed.

@gpatel-fr I feared you'd say that. But I thought I ask anyway. Nevertheless, thank you so much! Yet, that helped me a lot.

@MrT10001 Thanks for the tips/replies. I'll get back to you in a moment and let you know...

This issue had to do with signalcaptcha not working correctly so I was never verified account (that's why message not delivered). Fix was not use Brave Browser (ad blocking), DNS flush and turn off VPN. Then signalcaptcha worked, properly verified and now it is working. I'll leave this info here just in case others encounter this issue.

@bubblemind maybe @fredldotme can say?

@Pandolin hi Pandolin, I am trying to put VollaOS on my Quintus from Ubuntu Touch as well. Could you point me to any directions / help with this?

@MrT10001 lol when you say sanctioned immediately im thinking of nintendo and that emulator they made shut down ....it was like the most forked repo at the time or something like that

@sm-xcx For each smartphone model, I believe that in the case of Volte, the experiences can really vary from one telephone operator to another. The UT channel is also important. So saying in "crude terms" whether it works or doesn't work makes little sense.

the opi 5 build uses the same script for my x86_64 version currently i still have not tested the opi5 version just the x86_64 version so idk UT build script: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1psGjDJQ40fcwWYlxNBS_0QZW_Tpne4ZU/view?usp=drive_link

@danfro is significative that users only have issues with the app back button, but not with any other ones that are in the same position (menu in TELEports for example). The camera issue that you are could be solved with the proposition I did for the terrible design that is the notch thing. But I can't be sure as I don't know the model. Here also comes handy to be able to use the device upside down like the Poco. Also, let's remember that UT is not thought for mobiles, but for all devices.

@lsitongia I had missed the part where you said you were testing PR packages on the device.

@gpatel-fr No, I haven't. The UBPorts code definitely has some stuff related with that (dating from the ubuntu era...), but I have not spent time looking into it. I looked into geoclue2 as reported in this other thread, and realized that what is described there only uses wifi or cell; Geoclue2 does not switch to gps afterwards because it connects to gps chips through modemmanager while UBPorts manages the modem with ofono instead... I believe it would be easy to make a geoclue2 plugin for lomitri-location-service to first get a quick inaccurate location from local networks through geoclue2, with lomitri-location-service later automatically switching to gps when a fix becomes available. Of course, a working native AGPS lomiry-location-service implementation would be cleaner and preferable (geoclue2 is essentially duplicating the functionality of lomiry-location-service). What I'd also like is to have gps apps continuing to receive fixes when the screen is off. I would very much like activitytracker to be able to record tracks, or PureMaps continuing to give routing voice indications while cycling, without the present unnecessary screen-on battery drain.

I have tried to get help from the ubports_porting telegram group,but automatically kicked and blacklisted due to my pastebin link
