        Hi everybody!

        I'm Mathieu from french alps, 35 years old and I use UT since 2 weeks on a Xiaomi redmi 7 onclite and I really enjoy it! It works quite normally for an unofficial ports. I study electronics at school but I almost never works in it for differents reason ( to ski and mtb almost everyday ) but I still lovin it. I already read the Ubports docs and many post of the blogs thanks to advices of @libremax on the french forum.
        I'm linux user since only 2 years and I use Raspberry pi for "tv", it's awesome for 40€ computer!
        I really want to see what UT will become and maybe be a part of it.
        On this page https://ubports.com/fr/meet-the-community some links doesn't work 😊.
        So keep going and enjoy!

        Xiaomi Redmi 7
        Samsung Galaxy note 4

            @tchan Greetings, Mathieu. 🙂

            How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

                    Hello All

                    I am David, from France and I was using an Aquaris BQ4.5 Ubuntu edition since 2015. A few weeks ago I switch to A Xiaomi MI A2 on witch I installed UT. This is my daily driver.

                    I am a normal person, not a DEV 🙂 and I run Linux on my personal computer since I first install Debian on my Amiga. Yes I know I am very old.

                    I never been to UBPorts forum as I never had any issue with My BQ, but even if the new Mi A2 is working pretty good I had to do some fixing and most of the resources where here, so here I am.

                                Hi All my name is Marek. I have a phone Bg Aquaris E5 Hd. I have a few questions when it comes to the system.

                                1. Dekko does not delete messages?

                                2. Telegram can't log in with a phone number?

                                3. Small font in the system?

                                In general, the system is ok

                                  I know that one! Install the Ubuntu Tweak Tool app, it has an option for Scaling which will give you a larger font.

                                  It might be good to start separate topics in the Support area for questions that aren't so easy to answer. After all, this is a topic for introductions. On that note, welcome!

                                    First of all welcome!

                                    You can delete messages in Dekko by either opening the message and clicking on the dustbin icon top right, or from the inbox (or any folder view) put your finger on the message and slide it to the right. This reveals a red dustbin icon to the left of the message. Click on this to delete the message.

                                          I would like to know how do i port Ubuntu Touch to my phone

                                          Hello and welcome!
                                          A good place to start reading is here.
                                          But keep in mind: porting will generally take weeks, if not months, and during the process you will have a non-working phone most of the time. So it's not recommended to try to port your only phone and daily driver.
                                          If you'd happen to have a spare, that would help a lot.

                                            Howdy! My name is Jim Johnston. I have been using Ubuntu for a couple of years now and have been enjoying it quite a bit. I have been looking for a way to break away from Google for my phone, and recently discovered Ubuntu touch. I have a OP6T and a Nexus 5 that I am trying to get configured for a daily driver. Right now, I am mainly getting used to the ins and outs of UT, and looking at the differences between the RC and stable versions. I really like the concept of Convergence. It seems to work well wired on my Nexus 5 but I am not able to get the wireless display to work on the OP6T. I look forward to playing around with this and helping out with any testing that I can. Thank you, all, in advance.
