Hi, first of all thanks to all contributors of new https://www.ubuntu-touch.io/

I read:
"Use it as a desktop PC
Connect your device to a monitor or TV, and it expands into a windowed desktop. Productivity like on a traditional PC."

So reading that I feel even more clumsy, because it seems like it's a piece of cake (I wish it were so). I have a Volla X and, as far as I know, is not easy for someone with knowledge at the user level to connect that device to a TV (https://github.com/HelloVolla/ubuntu-touch-beta-tests/issues/107) and work like on a PC.

I wonder if it's honest to make a statement like this...

Still, I'm very grateful to all of you who make this project possible.

@mrt10001 I have managed to add the account in Dekko using that off password you suggested. Thanks a lot.

How can I know the Halium version I am using?
Thanks.
Volla X with Focal 20.04 OTA-5

@keneda @lakotaubp @phoenixlandpirat Thanks all of you.
I managed to update to 20.04 but I reinstalled the stable version because most application launchers got duplicated and Teleports didn't work.

@domubpkm Yes, it works for me if I'm conected to wifi.
It doesn't work on data connection (It looks like it's connected because the connection indicator turns green and you don't get an error message, but it doesn't connect to the internet...)
But no problem on wifi connection.
Volla X. Focal 20.04 OTA-4. Protonvpn.

@kimo
I've been able to config proton vpn conexion on my Volla X with a fresh 20.04 focal.
I did the same as with 16.04, but without the vpn app and it works.
I can choose sha-512, but it works too choosing "by default"

@Vlad-Nirky Perhaps also depends on the device (in my case Volla X) because my Berlingo (from 2019) allows you to call and receive calls, but does not allow access to contacts.

Volla X focal ota-8

@Vlad-Nirky Perhaps also depends on the device (in my case Volla X) because my Berlingo (from 2019) allows you to call and receive calls, but does not allow access to contacts.

I would like to help testing OTA-8 on my Volla X, but I don't dare: I'm on RC channel and the downloaded version (to be installed) is version 19.
Is version 19 the same as OTA-8?

@uxes I think so:
https://chatgpt.com/auth/login

and none of the options (login, sign up, try it first) do anything...

@lduboeuf Yes, but "400 Bad Request" (nginx) error appears...

I cannot login to chatgpt with morph or sapot browsers. I use a Volla X with focal 20.04 ota-7.
¿Is it the same thing for you or is it my thing?
Thanks in advance.

it works again after last Waydroid Helper 2.0.5 version.

@AppLee Thanks a lot for your time, your work and your answer. I don't know how mark this topic as solved...

@libremax Maybe I just wanted to express my frustration at not being able to use Ubuntu Touch as a PC. I've been using Ubuntu Touch for a long time (aquaris 4.5 2015) and I was excited about the idea of convergence on a linux, and I thought that one day I would have a simple PC on my mobile. Today I see it as far away... Thank you for your comment.
