@AppLee Now I see, said the blind man! I could not figure out why I couldn't write to the filesystem as root and sudo didn't work with the phone PIN. It's read-only because the entire filesystem is laid down during the porting process and thus only modified by the developers and then included in the port by the porters.

I'll get back to learning the porting process and waiting for the FP5 to go on sale! LOL. Thank you and I hope I'm not stating the obvious, but this is definitely helping me and hopefully others who get involved and read these forums.

@Keneda My mistake...I thought I read the port may work for GP3aXL (<- Oh, that's a horrible abbreviation), so I was experimenting.

@AppLee Thank you! I've been reviewing the UBports site/documentation already, but have a lot to learn.

Re: Welcome to the UBports community! Introduce yourself here!

Former DBA and consulting IT project manager getting involved with Ubuntu Touch. Current platform is a Google Pixel 3a XL with U.S. AT&T prepaid service. I can only send/receive texts and browse right now...until I figure out how to perform the VoLTE updat.

Looking forward to helping. Not a great developer when it comes to software, but would like to try my hand at/learn about controlling hardware at the device level and can see myself helping with managing ports.

@tigerpro I'm getting the same thing and I'm sure I've got the package spelled correct. When I do an apt update, I get an error:

Archives directory /var/cache/apt/archives/aprtial is missing. - Acquire (30: Read-only file system)

I new here, so apologies if I'm asking an obvious questions.

Platform: Latest Ubuntu Touch installed on Google Pixel 3a XL with AT&T Prepaid service in the U.S. and planning to purchase a FP5 in the near term.

@AppLee I've got UT running on a Pixel 3a XL with a prepaid AT&T SIM and confirmed with AT&T tech support 11/19/24 VoLTE is available on the plan.

Under Network, I see AT&T with the right angle triangle and the "L" in the small square to the right of the triangle.

I can:

1. Send and receive SMS messages
2. Browse the internet

I cannot:

1. Make or receive calls
2. Send or receive MMS messages

I'm not familiar with porting to halium 11, but interested in learning and/or can troubleshoot and/or test. What can I do to help?
