    @uwahl Ok thanks for this information :). It's good to know that the test_gps utility is not reliable. Unfortunatly for me all the apps (Pure Maps, uNav, SensorsStatus, Gps Toolkit) don't give me any fix. I hope someone can bring me a solution

    @kugiigi When using QGuiApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling); it looks the same on phone and TV. That's nice, but i think i will stick with units.gu(). I've tried it and, so far, it works nice. I saw there are problems, but that's not the fault of my app.

    My experience with Fairphone 5: Bluetooth: Working in my car for receiving and sending calls. Works also connected to a Pebble watch. GPS: Works for me, it takes 10 to 20 minutes to get a fix, in the open air or at the balcony of my place (1st floor of a building 9 floors high). Sometimes it takes longer, if I don't see a fix in 20 minutes I restart the phone. IDLE: Using the current development image the battery lasts for the whole day, unless using Waydroid for too long. I haven't seen the background apps draining battery so far. NFC I use it with Waydroid in the transport system of my city, no issues. Calls: No issues, 5G or Volte are working. SMS/MMS: SMS fine, I don't use MMS. Waydroid: Very fluid, but it hangs often when put in the background. Not a big deal because it starts in seconds. Connection to PC: No issues to mount the device in Linux, or connect with adb. Wifi/network: Disconnects if moving between WIFI antenna, but otherwise no issues.

    Updated: Now this script is almost unnecessary on Ubuntu/Debian or some Ubuntu/Debian based distros, it can still run the old script fine. But I still do this project so that other Linux distro users can still build without any problems.

    So I gave it a try and set all the ownership in /home/phablet to phablet:phablet, and after a reboot the app actually found some of the new files. Looks like the app can't handle mpc files properly; or at least can't read the tags - they all end up in one "Unknown album" - but that's a different problem.

    I wonder if could be related to a faulty charging port or cable? I was having connectivity issues with my OP5t, and it seemed like sometimes it was sometimes charging at a lower rate, despite using the Dash charger adapter or whatever. But then it became hard to charge at all, and eventually I had to replace the port (which thankfully wasn't too hard). Anyway, just a thought. Maybe try another cable for starters?

    @jojumaxx Hi! I have similar problems, looks like using waydroid and mounting ~/Music to it causes problems. The music app can't read the files anymore because the mounting changes the owner. See https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/apps/lomiri-music-app/-/issues/104

    Hi @drbsin Just as a reminder, it's always better to report issues on gitlab. On the forum you can try to find out if you're the only one affected by a specific issue or if you're looking for help to accomplish something. The forum is not suited for bug tracking.

    @developerbayman Yes but Waydroid leaks all the available information as if you were running android. If privacy is the main goal of using Ubuntu Touch, waydroid should be used carefully. Of course it won't sniff around to find your juicy pictures, but still your location and usage of the android apps will leak. Just like Meta cannot read your WhatsApp messages, but they're happy with "only" the metadata associated with such usage...
