@WQ6Z8X4U That looks like a different device.

@keneda looks like RC to me

@mrt10001 said in OpenStore not opening..:

Annnnd... the screen still spins like a wheel unless I use rotation lock!

Have you been able to rule out that is not a hardware issue?

@mrt10001 None needed. It is quite alright.

I switched to 20.04 RC from devel on my Pixel 3a, and OpenStore opens fine here.

Can you double check that you do have an internet connection? Maybe try reselecting your AP in the pull down menu? I have had occasions where the indicator was filled out, but not all apps detected the device was online.

@mrt10001 said in OpenStore not opening..:

Is anyone experiencing this after the latest update. It is happening across multiple devices on Focal.

After the latest update of the Open Store or of the OS? If the latter, which channel RC or Devel?

@keneda said in New RC update fixed flight mode:

Really?!? Never had issue with flight mode on my MX4

Neither have I on any device, including the Pixel 3A.

@deadbattery It seems there is some extra hardware needed to get OTG functionality on the Fairphone 2.

See here

@daryl for your privacy needs, a proper toe implementation might be on its way.

@daryl what filesystem is the card formatted with? UT only automounts FAT32 (and maybe NTFS) But it can read ext2,3,4 too, though you would need to manually mount those.

@007 just to get the terminologies straight: "porting" is the hard work of preparing a version of UT for a particular device. What you did is install an already prepared port on your device.

@arubislander Thanks for your great explanation, I have tried and had no luck

Hmmmm, it seems they do more checking that just the user agent then ... That is the better way to do it, but unfortunate for us.

@josele13 Try this:

• On the computer where totanota mail works, open your browser and go to: https://www.whatsmyua.info/.
• Copy the user agent that is shown and past it in your saved messages in Telegram.

• Then on your UT device launch Teleports and copy the user agent to the clipboard.
• Launch Morph and navigate to your tutanota mail website.
• Long press on an empty space on the page to bring up the context menu with the zoom option.
• Zoom in (or out) a little. This will add an entry for the tutanota domain to your Domain specific settings.
• Go to Settings ->Privacy & permissions -> Domain specific settings.
• Add a custom user agent by tapping on Custom User Agents -> +, entering a name and then pasting the user agent you copied to the clipboard earlier.
• Go back to Domain specific settings.
• Tap on the tutanota domain, enable custom user agent and select the user agent you created in a previous step.
• enjoy a working tutanota on UT 16.04

@daryl said in New "Old" BQ Aquaris M10 FHD for Ubuntu: how to update, and add other features?:

For the most part, I just want to have a vpn, and use it to surf, read online news, maybe a map app for travel, play music with a larger capacity sd chip, and just enjoy it.

Depending on what protocol your VPN uses this can be done for sure. I have successfully gotten OpenVPN configurations imported and working via the command line. PPP might also work.

I might entertain trying to back it up onto my pi that has alot of storage using rsync over ssh.

Might I suggest Syncthing for that? It is what I use, to keep my books, OTPT's and allowed keys synced on all my Ubuntu Touch devices.

However, I got it out today, and realized how nice it is... and wondered how I could update it and make it do more Ubuntu-like things.

This is indeed a very nice tablet. Thin, light, crisp screen. Works great with Ubuntu Touch. Unfortunately, unless a kind soul adopts this tablet to port it to 20.04, it will be left behind on Xenial while development focus moves to Focal.

I am curious though, what Ubuntu-like things were you thinking about?

@carrabelloy said in Postmarketos on the Ubports installer:

I tried it and I can tell you that it does not work,

That is unfortunate. Did you contact the postmarketOS community? I am assuming they test and maintain the installer configuration.

@carrabelloy If you are looking to install Android apps (which is what you get from F-Droid, then try Waydroid.

Libertine is for installing traditional Linux Applications', which in this case means applications packaged as Debs in the Ubuntu Repository of the particular version of the OS. But be advised that not all applications play well with the X11 server Ubuntu Touch provides (XMir on xenial and XWayland on Focal).

@carrabelloy I checked, and for the devices mentioned postmarketos is an option in the installer.
I don't own any of those devices so I couldn't test the installation, but the option is definitely there.

@idj No matter. Glad you got it to work as it did before.

@jonius yes, it is great to see more options to install other os's on different devices come to 'our' installer.

@doniks The main issue with Libertine has always been how well the apps behave running under XMir (xenial) or XWayland (focal). No more work is being done on XMir, bit XWayland is under active development, and we should see things improving on that front.
