          @k.nacke I am playing with scaling as it was scaled at 16 and I thought that was scrambling text, but even at 12 some text is missing (using the Tweak tool).

          This is one area for which I really need feedback. This is not only my first port, it is the first time I see Ubuntu Touch on a real device. 🙂 E.g. the icons may be too large....

            @k.nacke I also had a scaling issue and set it to 12.

            The nursing chargers were fixed by reviewing. I have not had that issue since.

              @k.nacke It seems ok after a reboot.

                      @itsjusthim Thanks for trying.
                      The kernel misses the telephony support, which causes the imei not showing up. I only own the F model, so I cannot help with this. (n case you would like to try yourself, replace akita_row_wifi with akita_row_call in the deviceinfo file, and in all overlay files, and build the all img files. This will enable the missing kernel support, but more might be missing.)
                      I am still working on the grahics issues.

                        @k.nacke Just installed UT.
                        The issue with this is that waydroid, just doesnt work. I got it to setup, but It spams about sensor not found. I left it for a good 30 minutes, but, it could not recover from that.
                        apart from that, the only other issue I could see is that the back camera is very cloudy and any photos is barely understandable.
                        Apart from that, the UT itself is great and working minus the videos which you addressed.
                        I am open for more testing, please feel free to push a development update. thanks a lot though.

                            Hi @k.nacke . Just tested waydroid and it does not seem to work. I am using the latest build on GitLab.
                            Running

                            waydoid log
                            

                            complains something about not finding device sensors. Waydroid is just stuck at the LineageOS Boot Screen. I left it for approx. 4 hours to boot but it did not work. Can someone please help me?
