@poVoq It has nothing to do with Wayland really. Chromium simply just cannot access the GPU on Android based devices, from the GNU/Linux side, because it doesn't use libhybris.

@Capsia ooooh I see. It was as simple as that. lol It works when I swipe left on the file.

@cliffcoggin Finally I am happy without the GPS. No one can track me, and I still have my old GPS for driving. lol

FYI for those that are having the same issue with 'not enough free space', see this post.

@Lakotaubp thanks!

@ernest Many thanks for your help! Sorry, I should have searched for a hardware issue before posting here.

@HendriXXX Thanks, your video helped a lot!

@captainmorgan It would definitely have to be part of the OS.

To add, I tried to install the stock image from Android -- specifically 6.0.1 (M4B30Z, Dec 2016), found here, which gave some errors and failed to fully install (though it did change the look of the bootloader.) I still was stuck with the UBports Recovery program.

So, I looked around and found the TWRP recovery program for hammerhead (Nexus 5 codename) and successfully installed that. I used it to wipe and format the drive, since all my previous attempts at installations (of either Ubuntu Touch or Android or LineageOS) failed.

Then, I tried once again to install LineageOS, by transferring the file to the phone (see code below) and then using TWRP to install it. This worked.

mark@debian:~/Downloads/Nexus5/LineageOS$ adb push lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hammerhead.zip /sdcard/. lineage-14.1-20190301-UNOFFICIAL-hamme... 4.4 MB/s (329881284 bytes in 71.197s)

I must say that the UBports recovery program needs improvement. It's far inferior to the TWRP recovery program.

Anyway, my issue is solved. I can now reinstall Ubuntu Touch. [edit] I did reinstall it. So, I'm good to go.

@Ingo same as you on Nexus 5.

😃 Really pleased to hear that, @CampOwl!

@myii Thank You for the hint!
The phone was "clean" (resetted to factory settings) when I flashed it so there was nothing but the android-system on it - but I think I´ll rather reinstall and choose wipe-option this time...

@mohsen Glad your sorted😊

@jack_mawang hi, just in case you don't know it: if you click on those 3 dots on the right hand side of your posts, you can edit them (among other options) 😉

Thanks, y'all!

@Marathon2422 I listened to some of the podcast 28 and I know that 16 is not totally ready but using it I think it definantly seems close.

@advocatux Thanks! That solved the problem! Still has very few apps now but like Marathon2422 said, their may be restocking the store with apps for 16.04. I know 15.04 is supposed to be more stable but this seems alright and I do want to submit error reports to help since this is stable enough for me to use as a daily phone. A lot of the problems I remember from last year or the year before are gone in this update I have installed now. Thanks for putting a link too. And I now use UTmedia since that works, but I wish I could use the File Manager to open the videos since that isn't suggested my UTmedia and the File-Manager doesn't list UTmedia as a was to open the video files. Oh well, it works alright for now. 🙂

Thanks again! 🙂

Updating with ubports installer coming from lineage worked seamlessly on my nexus 4. (The automatic device detection was a bit tricky, but i think this hasn't to do anything with lineage.)

@lakota Thanks.
