@scottbouch I use the camera on my Redmi Note 9 Pro Joyeuse. On Focal, the focus time is a bit long. But the results are fine. Sometimes (rarely), the camera is black and I have to restart it (the camera app, not the phone so it takes 2 seconds). On Noble, the camera has been improved and works like on Android: immediate focus and good quality photos. I have no issues with this smartphone, whether with VoLTE (in Belgium with Orange), SMS, MMS, sensors or Waydroid. I am so satisfied with it that I bought a second one (new) on Amazon and use it as a backup device and to test Noble OS. For UT, it's a very good phone. My only criticism is that I would prefer a slightly smaller size (like the Huawei P30, for example), but that's just my personal preference.

@March This phone is still running Xenial. It looks like you won't be able to have a pleasant UT experience with it. Your best bet is to go for a smartphone that is more up to date https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

@wally The lack of MMS was a big sticking point for me, good to know it might just take some messing around to get it working. Hopefully the new APN settings will resolve my sms/mms issues. @arubislander Good to know! Once I get the SMS/MMS issues ironed out I will do some playing around and see what I can come up with. If I could somehow get bitwarden and firefox I would be set. The default browser is pretty rough with the scaling bug on the FP5.

@darshpreets said in Running a Home Server on Ubuntu Touch – Feasibility & Experiences?: Hi all, Has anyone here successfully run a home server directly on Ubuntu Touch? I have, from my PinePhone. What kind of services you’ve managed to run (e.g., web server, file server, SSH, media streaming) OpenSSH, file server, web server, torrent service. How stable the system is for 24/7 operation Perfectly. It's just like running Ubuntu Server. Any limitations due to the read-only root filesystem or confinement No. If you are really worried about filesystem permissions you can set up a container to host your services. Recommended tools or packages to make it work Nothing special required. Remember, Ubuntu Touch is Ubuntu. The same packages and guides apply.

@padraic I don't think Snapzor even works on Noble. For me it doesn't open. But yeah, you don't need it anymore to enable snaps on 24.04. However, it may serve as a GUI for installing snaps or as a snap store if ever the dev decides to still make it work on Noble. I've already tried snaps on my FP4 and Pro1-X. Sadly, it's still not a reliable option for apps. Most GUI programs doesn't work well or even open. Big improvement on this will come with an updated Mir and Wayland support Hopefully that will come soon

@Futura Most of the time, yes. But I am still on Focal.

@ikoz I think i have found the solution. After allowing outgoing traffic to 188.166.175.79 port 5001 the notifications seem to work. lsof, netstat and a little bit more googling helped me. After disabling ufw; lsof and netstat were showing the IP and port after a notification came in. Port 443 is needed, too. Unfortunately logging with ufw does not work, but who cares, i didn't need it. Thanks for pushing me into the right direction, this warning app could save a life.

@kugiigi Brilliant thanks, I will take a look tonight

@arubislander ah, ok, thanks!

@arubislander . You are a genious. Thank you.

As a note, do not expect the same performance as the 4Gb 64Gb model as 2Gb is not great for opening multiple apps and even the browser. Android 10 on the 2Gb variant ran awfully and I had to tweak a lot just to get some things done, mainly kids games.

@W0nderW0lf Link to devices page. If it is not on there it is not supported. Some people create ports for devices, requiring a bit of searching, but a lot fizzle out due to various difficulties and are not supported.

@marlboro50 Ah, sorry, missunderstood. Good luck!

Carrier never gets detected if that helps, just spins.

@Simmonz Can be worth playing around a bit with APN settings for MMS. I needed two separate APNs for Internet and MMS. I was able to use a tethering APN for my Internet and the nornal one fot MMS. Some seem to need this, others have found the opposite, that it only works with combined Internet and MMS on oneAPN setting. I still lose about 1 in 10 of incoming MMS messages, but at least I get a notification. If you're able to test VoLTE, I'd be very interested. I believe it should have a VoLTE icon in your indicator bar at top when connected on a call if it's working properly. Insights on call quality, and whether SMS works normally with VoLTE enabled also welcome. Too bad about reception. Not sure why it would be worse with same device on UT vs Volla OS. Thanks for the info!

It's the beginning of the journey for the FP6 to reach some day the land of UT ️ https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/reference-device-ports/halium-14/fairphone-6 Don't expect it to be sooner than later
