    @Simmonz similar behavior, but different cause I guess.

    @lukasfixit Did you have the correct version of Android installed before you started the installation?

    @Eric-H Interesting! Even the unblocked photo isn't so bad to my eye, but I see the difference. Thanks for pointing me to that! Very helpful to know the details before spending hundreds on one phone or another. Thank you!

    @ubugogo 2.4 works but 5 does not hold. This is an issue I had with huawei too so I don't think it is UT or Fairphone. I have been wandering the internet, playing music via jellyfin and listening to podcasts. Really seems good with my home wifi

    Addendum 2: Of course, it could be BT, but I thought I'd check-in with you guys first before tackling the behemoth; but to be fair once you get to a actual person, I have found they were knowledgeable and helpful. Anyway, as the problem hasn't been reported here, I'll adduce it's some glitch involving BT and close this question; and my life can move on. Thanks for the (tacit) help.

    @uxes Correct Android? I had whatever it came with. 10.something. I wasn't running UT. I was only starting the process. I couldn't get data, so I couldn't unlock the phone with Xiaomi. I wasn't close to installing UT yet.

    @nogoogle I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but the whole reason that I left Telus was because they said that due to network changes, my device (then a Oneplus 5t) would no longer have functional MMS. https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/picture-and-group-messaging-changes The linked article says "older decices", but other communication from Public Mobile said the only way to be sure was to use a phone from a fairly small approved list, which FP4 isn't on. Maybe some kind friend who uses another network would let you briefly borrow their SIM for MMS testing, to see if changing networks would solve it.

    Was /data mounted correctly when you pushed the rootfs? Did you format userdata? Also, you seem to have overlaystore enabled but overlayfs in kernel is not enabled (unless I missed something). Anyway, it is better for you to ask in t.me/ubports_porting, there are more knowledgeable than me people there that can help you, and real-time communication is preferred because porting can take a long time to succeed.

    Looking further I guess that setRadioPower is the actual function returning the error: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/opt/telephony/+/master/src/java/com/android/internal/telephony/PhoneInternalInterface.java#576 /** * Sets the radio power on/off state (off is sometimes * called "airplane mode"). Current state can be gotten via * {@link #getServiceState()}.{@link * android.telephony.ServiceState#getState() getState()}. * <strong>Note: </strong>This request is asynchronous. * getServiceState().getState() will not change immediately after this call. * registerForServiceStateChanged() to find out when the * request is complete. This will set the reason for radio power state as {@link * android.telephony.TelephonyManager#RADIO_POWER_REASON_USER}. This will not guarantee that the * requested radio power state will actually be set. * See {@link #setRadioPowerForReason(boolean, boolean, boolean, boolean, int)} * for details. * * @param power true means "on", false means "off". */ default void setRadioPower(boolean power) { setRadioPower(power, false, false, false); } So this seems to be just a general on/off toggle and should not have power saving implications. Disabling the "Cellular data" seems to only disable the data connection, not the telephony connection, and does not affect this message. Enabling "Flight Mode" does seem to make the message stop. Flight Mode also does seem to work because I can't call the mobile number anymore when flight mode is on. So is this maybe just a bogus error?

    @RobTheBold I've tried this phone (Global model) with AT&T, RedPocket (AT&T) and Mint Mobile (T-Mobile). The first two don't work at all. Mint works for voice and SMS but not MMS or data. I'm giving up on this one and returning it to EBay.

    @Twigg said in Fairphone "gen" 6 is there !: From what I have read above, it looks like there haven't been too many changes from FF5 to FF6, so perhaps that makes it easier for Ubuntu Touch to get released on the FF6? I said that ram and rom are the same amount, and screen only 30hz more. But SoC is completely different, hardware is different. I guess you misunderstood me, I didn't say FP6 is the same as FP5, I said Ubuntu Touch experience should be the same under FP5 and FP6.

    @Smirftsch Yeah, the idea of Dekko or another email client as a core app makes sense to me. Longer term, I thought at one point I heard talk about trying to fork Thunderbird, possibly via Snaps, which will be enabled by default in 24.04. But I'm sure that'll require some work to function well in UT. Meanwhile, I hope some other input about email usage, and Dekko specifically, can help make UT more useable for you.

    @sixwheeledbeast What you are describing is the same as I have. GPS: I still need to test (for you it works). Camera Glitchyness could be happening, did not have that myself. USB Dac and similar stuff can be tricky even on Android. For me it works better in UB-Touch then Android. Desktop mode / USB Video is clunky and/or broken depending on the Hardware used. Vibration and Notification is more about Waydroid then the os (It is part of a sublist in the waydroid row). The Libertine issues is FP5 unrelated. Waydroid and Vibration, Notifications passthrough and GPS are know limitation or issues. I just noted them down so if I check back on my own website later to check if something changed its working state i can know for sure. This list is just a copy of my website entry and you are right, a redundant list of "working" in the forums is no longer needed at this stage. Someone here asked for an updated and I was testing at the moment anyway so I just updated the first entry in this topic by copying my personal list to it. Calling waydroid a stopgap is a little hard that's right... I just use it that way on my phone. It is great and makes Ubuntu Touch extremely powerful in software compatibility but is mostly used to fill in for apps that are not ported or supported by the makers of the apps. On platform's like PCs it is more used as a "emulation" tool.

    @uwahl This was the place. By writing a new file named places.conf in /home/phablet/.config/filemanager.ubports/, I was able to get the File Manager app to access the server. Thanks all. Technically solved issue. And yet, performance is incredibly poor. Very slow to load, and read-only.
