OP6T
I find that the slider on the right hand side of the phone - which controls the ring/vibrate/silent does not work on my phone under OTA-3 (20.04) . Is there a way to make it live?

@arubislander Thank you, will give it another try and let you know how it goes.

RE: Connecting to Gmail.
@MrT10001 Thank you for that - Yes that is what I did in the screen shots of my phone above. I even removed the spaced that Google unhelpfully leaves in in the password. ....but still nada!

RE: Connecting to Gmail.
@lduboeuf That method does not work anymore as Google has removed the "less secure app" option.

Connecting to Gmail.
I presume there is not gmail app so I need to connect to my Gmail account with Dekko2. I realise that there was a major change in Google security in May 2023 which voided the usual way of doing things. I have tried this approach:
but with no luck. What is the most sensible way to go about getting my Gmail emails in UBports?
This is my setup.

RE: Whats your solution for WhatsApp?
@s710 I downloaded the Whattsapp Web app from the online OpenStore using Morph to find and download it. I then installed it on my OP6 UBports (20.04) phone. It works after a fashion, it has not been updated for a while (April 23). It is hard to get it to adapt to the phone screen. I would probably work on a "as necessary" basis....but not really suitable for regular daily use - that is just my opinion and I have only tried it on my phone.....but it does actually work.

RE: Close to being able to use my OP6 as my daily phone....but for these two issues.
@arubislander I tried that, thank you and it worked, except the Calendar App time seems to be set on NY time. My Google calendar entries are 6 hour different in the Calendar App from what they are in my Google Calendar. My UBports OP is set on Auckland time....as is my Google Caldendar. Why the 6 hour difference?

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@MrT10001 Thanks for that. But as it is almost impossible for me to get a new OnePlus One battery shipped to NZ (and none available here) I think it is time to call a halt to my OnePlus One project. Thank you so much for all the help you have given me.

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@MrT10001 Thanks for that, is there a link to the standard way of going back to stock Android as I have not done that before!

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@MrT10001 I spoke too soon. It worked very well for the OP6 but not for the OPOne. I think the problem with the OPOne is that version 20.04 does not work well on it. My original problem with this phone started when I upgraded from 16.04 to 20.04....and this time around I foolishly chose 20.04 again instead of 16.04. Now the phone wont go into recover mode or fastboot mode....and it keeps on giving low battery errors despite being plugged in for hours.

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@MrT10001 I must say, I was extremely sceptical of the "new cable and new port" approach.....I offer my humble apology for my scepticism....you were 100% correct, It worked like a charm, UPports now on both of my devices. Thank you so much for your help. I wish you and yours a healthy and prosperous new year! Thank you again!

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@Dunbrokin Just tried it with the OPO (different cable) and the same problem. Fastboot Mode shown on phone and installer still searching for device.

RE: Installing on OPone and OP6.
@MrT10001 Unfortunately that made no difference. I have unplugged the phone, rebooted to with Vol Up + Vol Down +Power. then re-plugged the phone and hit Start - no luck. Did the same again and hit both Restart BootLoader and then again with Recovery Mode (this took me to a different Recovery screen where I hit Restart Bootloader.....and all the time the Installer is still searching for and cannot find the phone,
