My granddaughter is over for a couple days visit, and we decided to go out and play disc golf. I thought it would be a god idea for her to tuck a phone in her pocket and practice calling her dad, her mom, and me.

We practiced hitting the power button, sliding to the left and to the right, finding the contacts icon and finding her parents and me. Got great cell coverage in NWATL area.

I think I need to explore a few of the games next. But Ubuntu Touch on a OnePlus Nord N10 on the Mint network is 8 year old granddaughter approved. Well, we'll need to check messaging next. Granddaughter texts are very emoticon heavy. We haven't checked that out yet.

@rocket2nfinity uNav worked great last trip. I just clicked on my Home location and GPS kicked in very quickly. I'll need to check your method as well. I was out and hadn't researched, so just tapped things. Anyway, PodCat worked just fine for playing Good Hang by Amy Poehler while uNav gave me directions home. And dekko did great for email notifications.

I decided to forward my primary mobile number to my Ubuntu Touch phone while running errands today. Forwarded calls, powered up my phone. Must have hit something while transporting the phone before it was fully booted, as I got stuck in a boot loop. I put it away while I went about my errands. Researched when I got home, and all it took was hitting power and sound up at the same time.

Oh well. Phone is u and working. I can forward my calls. I don't see an option to forward SMS messages. I'll research that a little more, as I'd rather not swap sims based on what physical phone I want to use as primary.
