@Keneda The command is given on the release of OTA 10 blog.

@Opolork I know it is very low tech, but if you want siimple have you tried sending yourself an email?

@linuxlion Ubuntu Touch is a read only file system to stop clowns like me breaking it by doing something stupid. You have no idea how 'inventive' I can be.

If you are more experienced you can make the system read/write either from the command line or you can use the UT Tweak Tool from the Openstore to do it. Just be careful what you do.

I believe that apt Is not supported/recomended.

@RJDan I had this problem and asked if anyone here on the forum had any suggestions.

I think the answer I got was to try to open an example domain by typing html://example.com/ in the search bar on the browser.

It somehow sorts things out..... but it was some time ago and I may have miss remembered.

@ygrex On my Vollaphone X running 20.04 OTA 9 it works as expected. Pressing volume up and down together gives a camera shutter noise and the screenshot appears in Gallery.

@AppLee But surely labeling them to remove confusion could be a good idea

@AppLee In that case shouldn't there be 2 entries in the settings menu under 'language and text' for:-

Physical (external) keyboard layout

OSK keyboard layout

As it is going back from the physical layout, just labeled 'keyboard layout' takes you to the 'language and text' settings menu.... from where 'keyboard layout' takes you to the OSK keyboard layout menu.

No wonder people get confused.

@lduboeuf That makes sense. Thank you for the clarification.

@AnhVu Facinsting. If you drag from the left of thre screen and open 'settings' then click on 'language and text' and then on 'keyboard layouts' you get a restricted list of possible keyboards.

If you pull down from the top of the screen, scroll across and select 'keyboard' and then click on 'keyboard settings' you get a much BIGGER list of keyboards.

Try that and let us know how you got on.

@AnhVu Did you try scrolling down?

I have pages full of keyboards on my Vollaphone X running OTA 8.

@drbsin Using the UT installer.

@kugiigi If that has happened would the easiest way out be to reinstall with the option to wipe user data unticked? Then start up and set password/passphrase?

@drbsin Does your passphrase include any spaces?

@drbsin Strange, it works for me. I just tried it on my Vollaphone X and I'm fairly sure it worked on my Nexus 5 and my BQ Aquaris 5.

The same passcode or passphrase you use to access the terminal should work for sudo.

@drbsin Whatever you set as your paassphrase on first run. The pincode you use to unlock the phone.

Will either of these features land for Vollaphone X and how can I help with testing?

@bbiw If in doubt use the Installer to load the current 20.04, but make sure you don't tick the option to wipe user data. In fact as was mentioned above you are always advised to back up your data before any major changes to your system.

@MrT10001 Back when I was doing a proper job I think I used to use Insert Special Symbol..... or.something like it under MS Word.
Just checked on LibreOffice and it is Insert -> Special Character then select the required character.

@MrT10001 I think he means the UT English keyboard. Not sure about where to find it on a desktop/laptop keyboard.
On the UT keyboard select numbers then long press the 0 key.

Works for me on Vollaphone X running 20.04 OTA 5 (eagerly awaiting OTA 6).
