      Hi All
      I played around with waydroid and my Bluetooth headphones on my FP4 (OTA-1). At some point the music app stopped working. I tried reinstalling it through the openstore and manually through the terminal. In the openstore I click on install, it runs the progress bar, and then simply returns to showing the install button. Downloading and manually installing shows this:

      pkcon install-local ~/Downloads/music.ubports_3.0.2_all.click
      Installing files              [=========================]         
      Finished                      [=========================]         
      Fatal error: No such file /home/phablet/Downloads/music.ubports_3.0.2_all.click, or unknown or unsupported content type
      

      Are there any further logs to consult? And where do I actually find the logs on UT?

      thanks

        Did you upgrade from xenial? In any case, try to uninstall it, reboot then reinstall.

          Thanks for the reply. No, I wiped the phone clean and set it up fresh with the installer for focal. I tried reinstalling the Music app first and when that didn't work I uninstalled it. I have since rebooted a few times and I could never install it again πŸ˜•

            @gandalf Weird. But you can install other apps fine?

              Yes, no, and finally yes again πŸ˜‰ . I was able to remove and immediately reinstall a few apps (calculator, doc viewer, uVolMan). I then removed the calculator and rebooted the phone. I could no longer reinstall the calculator. When browsing the storage to find where the apps are stored and to see if there was anything left behind I came across this though:

              root@ubuntu-phablet:/opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/users/phablet# ls -l
              total 0
              lrwxrwxrwx 1 phablet phablet 7 Apr 13 12:39 calculator.ubports -> @hidden
              lrwxrwxrwx 1 phablet phablet 7 Apr  5 23:53 music.ubports -> @hidden
              

              I was able to reinstall the calculator app after removing the calculator.ubports entry:

              cd /opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/users/phablet
              rm calculator.ubports
              rm music.ubports
              

              For the music app I just removed the entry and rebooted. The Music app re-appeared again and is working :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

              Does that mean removing apps just hides them from the default phablet user and reinstalling fails to remove that hiding flag?

                @gandalf Only for de pre-installed apps. regular apps really do get removed.

                  Okay, thanks for the info. Those errors messages and symptoms look a bit disconnected from what's going on, but I got the player back πŸ‘ πŸ™‚
