@applee Works fine with ssh, except that I have to put my passphrase maybe 20 times..
So if someone has an idea how to do it with cable, would simpler. I know I could skip the passphrase forever, but this is not what I want
What I am asking myself: adb is android debug bridge, so on a phone without android, can there be a adb?

@gy0im Thanks that did the trick.. I did not know what I was deleting actually, and by mistake I also deleted my phone book. But nothing I can restore, so everything great!

Hello all!
I am not the super programmer but would like to try. I tried

sudo apt install pass

and got:

E: Unable to locate package pass

Since the program is pass opensource, it should not be very complicated to compile it for ubuntu-touch and add it to the repo. However, I have never done this before. How can I proceed?

Or do I just need to add a repo? Maybe someone has already done this?

@stanwood Thanks... It's a pity that this is exactly the kind of thing I find so cool about Linux. That you have a packet manager, and the programs can use each other.
Is a program via the Openstore also accessible in the console?
So is there an other way to install for example pass on my device?

I was able to set up my carddav and caldav accounts like this:
https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/dav.html

And I was able to delete wrong configurations like this:
https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7092/delete-a-calenendar/5?_=1643577988544

Unfortunately, I noticed that changes were not uploaded. If I understand correctly, this is what cron would be for.

Shouldn't these lines in the script dav.sh be the ones responsible for this? Is there something wrong with it?

How does that work properly?

#Add Sync Cronjob
sudo mount / -o remount,rw

sudo echo "$COMMAND_LINE" > /sbin/sogosync
sudo chmod +x /sbin/sogosync

CRON_LINE="@$CRON_FREQUENCY /sbin/sogosync"
(crontab -u phablet -r;) # only if no other cronjob already exist in the crontab
(crontab -u phablet -l; echo "$CRON_LINE" ) | crontab -u phablet -
sudo mount / -o remount,ro
sudo service cron restart

I haven't gotten that far, and I'm not yet able to use my passwords with Unix Pass on my Ubuntu Touch device, which currently forces me to always have two phones with me.

Is there something I am doing wrong? I was able to initialize the program with pass, but I can't generate and save passwords. Its generating one but the list remains empty. Among many 'libtls-padding.so' errors.

@stanwood You write: It is strongly not recommended to use apt to install software. (as it won't work and may brick your device)
But back to the main topic. How do I do it? Even if it may brick my device. Better than no device. That would be the case if a such a simple thing like pass do not work on a ubuntu-phone.

@nero355 @arubislander
Thank you! Developer mode was on. (Might be a bit hidden in my original post). So in "normal case" the phone should become visible for adb as soon as developermode is active.

What I am asking myself: adb is android debug bridge, so on a phone without android, can there be a adb?

@applee The cable should be correct.. I could also mount the files on ubuntu. Ok, I will try with ssh, which is configured. But I thought the cable should be faster. If there is a way with cable, I would prefer it.

@moem Its a volla phone x

I was following the instructions here.

After creating my first app (called testytest) i run:

cd testytest/
clickable

and got the message at the end:

Cannot access device.
ADB: No devices attached
SSH: no IP address specified (--ssh)

Developer mode was on.

adb devices

Gave me no result. I have just an Ubuntu-Touch an no Android system on my phone. So is there adb available? Do I have to install it somehow? Or activate?

@stanwood What I did is now:

#!/bin/bash
# create the container:
libertine-container-manager create -i pcapps -n pcapps
# install pass
libertine-container-manager install-package -p pass

I copyed also all my encrypted passwords to /home/phablet/.password-store
Then executed:

libertine-launch -i pcapps pass

Now I got the following:

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libtls-padding.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libtls-padding.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
: DISPLAY environment variable not set!
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libtls-padding.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
Error: password store is empty. Try "pass init".

Also I tried to copy the passwords to:

~/.cache/libertine-container/pcapps/rootfs/home/

No success.. Where do I have to copy them? Or in other words: Where is the home which sees the program in the container?

@totalsonic Thanks steve! I will try that.
