@developerbayman This post is two years old. And the OP hasn't been on the forums in over a year. I doubt they will benefit from any advice now.
I will proceed to lock the thread.

@brenno.almeida the source needs to be available if it is an open source app. But as long as it is fully confined it doesn't need to be open source to be published in the store. The 'open' in Open Store originally was because it was also open to unconfined apps, whereas those were not allowed in the Canonical store.

@developerbayman it's just an update of an app that I have had in the store for years now.

This is an open ecosystem. User choice is welcomed. If it is a different app, inspired on Syncthing or no, then there's definitely no objection.

Even if it were the same app, then I am in no capacity to object anyhow. But in the latter case I would rather appreciate collaboration rather than having two distinct versions of the same app in the store.

But since this is not even the case with your app, by all means follow your intuition.

@Moem so it is!

@developerbayman It is never "that simple". If it were, it would already have been done.

A new version (2.0.16) of Syncthing has been uploaded to the Open Store. This release follows the upstream release. See here for the release notes.

@developerbayman wouldn't it make more sense to use a mainline port or the PDK image as a base for a x86_64 port. Then there would be no Halium bits needing to be removed.

@Ehartwork My point is, you are probably not testing VoWiFi at all, since that has not been reported to work on this device by regular users. One developer claims to have gotten it to work on a FP5, but this has not been independently verified.

The fact that what you think is WiFi calling doesn't work when there is no cellular service is a strong indication that WiFi calling is not available on this device.

@Ehartwork said:

WiFi Calling: Does not work without seeing the carrier service. The device works with cellular data turned off, but still within tower range, otherwise it will not work without it.

How can you be sure you are testing VoWiFi? From the sounds of it your are simply calling via your carrier's network. Turning off data has no impact on telephony. It only turns off mobile internet.

Maybe this is a Halium thing?

I doubt it. I have had a Pixel 3a in which I installed UT myself several times, and have never seen the logo you are describing on the boot screen.

@projectmoon said:

Can you actually type and backspace without it duplicating words/characters?

I usually turn off word prediction to avoid that. It's usually more trouble than it's worth anyhow.

@r0lle can you take a picture of those logos?

@Keneda this user has had many unexplained issues with their install... This is just the latest of a series.

@r0lle said:

When booting the first time it shows the Linneage logo for a few minutes

If it shows the lineage logo, it means you had the wrong version of Android installed beforehand. Did you install stock Android 9 for this device?

@r0lle Never needed to go through that song and dance on my Pixel 3A either, tbh

@r0lle Mine would also do that on occasion. If you selected both Wipe userata and Bootstrap on the first try and it gets stuck on the logo on reboot, I would try booting to fastboot and then running the installer again, but this time only selecting Wipe Userdata (so no bootstrap). If you did not select both Wipe Data and Bootstrap initially, you should first do both.

@Satanas1275 While we are all for seeing more and all kinds of Linux on phones, soliciting help on a Postmarket OS port is very much off topic for this forum, wouldn't you agree?

@pparent Where was this announced?

@Fla said:

I think Waydroid is tight to Halium too, isn't it?

I don't think this is inevitably the case. Else how would it work on regular desktop Linux? Also I think I got it running on the PinePhone. It ran terribly slow, as everything else on that hardware, but it did run.

@Kadafi can you navigate to the open store in the browser: https://open-store.io, and download one of the apps you are trying to install? Maybe it is an issue with internet restrictions where you are at?
