As far as I know the best option is to download GhostCloud from the Openstore.

And I suggest to download Ubsync also

You could try to shutdown and then boot.
Reboot is not usually enough so most likely absolute shutdown is needed.

This 'fixed' same error on Volla X :). Absolutely no idea where this bug is coming

@kameshbhai32 hello and welcome to the forum

Basicly it is that simple if you use Firefox trough libertine - but you have to try only once to understand why it is not reasonable idea (on Ubuntu Touch with mobile device). User experience with UT with desktop Firefox is absolutely torture.

That is the reason why login sync is not that easy to achieve. On Ubuntu Touch you have to have mobile optimized (or convergence) software.
And my post idea was to tell how you can do it with current working software solutions.

Hello Ubuntu Touch users!

I am not an expert on this and I don't know if this is necessary post but when I struggled with this I could not find necessary help from the forum.
So I am trying to give something back to this community (more than a small donation, I guess you are also all ready a patreon?)

And just to clarify this is only one example how I did this - there must be some other ways also. And as you can see when you continue reading I am not an expert - so if there is some huge security issue I would like to know also xD

IMO our best option is Keepweb app and WebDav. So you have to install Keepweb from the Openstore.
Keepweb works with .kdbx - I installed KeepassXC to my Ubuntu PC and imported my login details from Bitwarden to KeepassXC. KeepassXC creates .kdbx file and you can choose the login details (to access that file) as you like.

Then you need some kind of cloud storage - Google Drive, Dropbox or Onecloud might work also but I was curious about Nextcloud.
First I tried to set Nextcloud by myself but I had to admit that I am not that expert on this
I choosed to rent Nextcloud from tab.digital
Then I upload my .kdbx file to the server but it did not work
But tab.digital set everything up (cors or something) for me and after that webdav works.

Then I just filled login details etc. to Keepweb app and it syncs with my Ubuntu Touch OPO.

THEN you need to install Keepass Tusk add on to your Firefox and follow the advice from the add on. Unfortunately Keepass Tusk is kind of abandoned but at least it is still working.

Most likely this is not risk free solution so please be aware of that.

Ps. tab.digital published the solution but this is above my knowledge. I will leave it below if there is someone who is interested (or is this even new solution I do not know)

*Sure we can publish, here is the solution you need to do:

@kmsgli I am not expert on this but I have tried multiply backup methods.
Only one what I managed to get working 10/10 is the one what I wrote on my message.
As far as I can tell with my experience: if you use that method you can actually restore everything (including sms, phone calls etc.) as long as you try to restore it to "same device" = not excatly the same one but OPO -> Volla did not work but OPO -> OPO working.

Bastos methot is mostly the same but I have tried it also and it did not work.
As said I am not an expert but if you follow my message step by step you might get it working (that is what I did - I just copy&pasted someones idea )

I use to struggle with same problem but then I find this somewhere in the forum (sorry I don't remember who is the original advisor)

This solution works on OPO and Volla. I also tried to migrate my settings from OPO to Volla with this but that did not work - OPO -> OPO or Volla -> Volla works fine

Source device

After connecting source device on PC commands in terminal as follows:
Reboot phone into recovery: adb reboot recovery
Acquire root: adb root
Activate shell: adb shell (command prompt will change to # sign)
Backup system-data (this will also create log files, that can be examined for possible errors) :
tar -czpv -f /system-data.tgz /data/system-data/ >/system-data.out 2>/system-data.err
tar -czpv -f /user-data.tgz /data/user-data/ --exclude='data/user-data/phablet/.cache' >/user-data.out 2>/user-data.err
logout from shell to your terminal
Ctrl+D

go to directory where backup data are to be stored in PC
adb pull /system-data.tgz
adb pull /user-data.tgz

Destination device

Reboot phone into recovery: adb reboot recovery
go to directory where backup data are to be stored in PC
adb push ./system-data.tgz /
adb push ./user-data.tgz /

Activate shell:
adb shell
tar -xzv -f /system-data.tgz
tar -xzv -f /user-data.tgz

I would like to hear more from the same topic as ub_newbie. FxTec Pro1-X sounds too good to be true - is it true that we have working "convergent" device in near future? Does someone allready have the device and if so does the HDMI work like plug-and-play?

And on the same topic - if I buy Pro1-X does Ubports get commission?

Disclaimer : English is not my native language and I understand only very basics from coding etc.

Long story short:
I am so happy with your work that I actually bought UT phones to everyone in my small company and we are example that it adapts fine to corporate needs.

I understand how Ubports is working so you must take my question just as a question (absolutely 0% demand or stress)
How difficult it is to build password manager to Morp browser and is there any plans on it?
Because in my point of view that is the barrier why I am not recommending UT to my friends. Personally I can live with current situation because I am fanboy.

In Volla there is only USB C 2.0 port and if you want USB C to HDMI to work it requires 3.0 port. So with Volla this is not gonna happen.

I think in someday you can use Vollla with bigger screen using Miracast - but that feature does not work yet.
