@lduboeuf Wow. Cool. That worked. Thanks. Perhaps that should be used as part of the instructions on the device install section. Probably should also mention that Google Chrome is needed to do that. The important thing is that I now have Ubuntu Touch on the phone. Thanks again.

@arubislander Cool. That works. I was able to go in and get the Waydroid instance certified (through the adb shell) by following the Waydroid instructions and getting the android id.

Unfortunately, after using Wayroid stop and rebooting the phone, the system freezes at the Google splash screen.

A restart is possible, and I am able to get into Waydroid again by using the app tray.

@Luksus Yes I did register.

I am experiencing an interesting problem. Fossa install on a Pixel 3a. I am getting error messages from what appears to be the Google Play Services, that my device is not certified, despite having certified it. The error appears to be generated by the Shelter cloned (work) version of Google Play Services, and despite having taken what I consider a 360% view of this issue, I don't see any way that this could be solved by a separate certification of the work Google Play Services. Any other ideas for a work around?

@saveurlinux Thanks. Yes, I have tried that. If I am lucky, I get an error message...

Can someone provide me with the contents of a pam_environment file?

I got irritated with the lack of a time format option for 24 hour clock in the system settings, so I created a /home/phablet/.pam_environment file on my own, with the following contents:

LANGUAGE=en_US
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

LC_TIME=da_DK.UTF-8

Unfortunately, I have no idea if there are other things that the file should contain, as I haven't been able to find any pam_environment file on the system, and no example file was in /home/phablet/ when I installed the system...

I already setup my other phone. Unfortunately, that didn’t work for app generated SMSs either. However, I again installed the GAPPS version of Waydroid, as I need to install a couple of apps that are only available on Google Play Store…

@Luksus Interesting. I have another phone that I can setup tomorrow, to see if this issue is device specific.

OK, so I can now confirm that SMS is working in Ubuntu Touch, but there is a problem receiving a confirmation SMS via my parking app.

@saveurlinux Hi again. I don’t see a GSM setting.

I am experiencing two issues with my EasyPark app in Waydroid. I am supposed to be getting confirmation SMS messages when I try to register the app with my phone number, but I don't receive anything. The other issue that I have tried with another parking app, as I can't re-register wih EasyPark on my Pixel 3a phone yet. The second parking app does not get any location information.

In UT, I have both uNav and GPS Toolkit working.

Thanks to everyone for all of the help and feedback!
