@gpatel-fr I feared you'd say that. But I thought I ask anyway. Nevertheless, thank you so much! Yet, that helped me a lot.

@pparent Good for you. I have tested more heavily this solution and it's promising, but I suspect that there are still a bug or two in systemd itself and I need to clear the air about it before suggesting it in a QA.

@undrwater it depends on the kernel, hence on the particular port for your phone/tablet, more details in this post

I have a similar problem with my Volla Quintus, see : https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11263/frame-rate-and-slow-animations-movies . I am already in contact with Volla about this. But because "laggyness" or "low framerate" is quite subjective (not easy to measure in technical terms), except you can record the screen in high framerate and without aliasing, it is not easy to talk about and to discuss this problem.

Hi @jojumaxx said in Running Waydroid fails...: Do you mean this list? I sense that you're not talking about the same list. @arubislander was probably referring to this one: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/vidofnir/ The "waydroid" feature is shown as: Partial = Working to some extent but with issues Clicking on this link leads to the actual issue. And it's the same as the Quintus. https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/packaging/waydroid/-/issues/24 But wait, there's more; this issue is not really one, but instead it's a workaround made by Jami in order to setup waydroid on both devices (Volla X23 and Quintus)... And I hope that this is the answer you were looking for.

I had this behavior already in OTA-7. I don't remember, when this started, it wasn't always this way. I also can fix this only by booting while the charger is plugged in. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. Good to know, there's no issue with the battery.

Updated successfully. Thank you!

@jojumaxx Same issue with Vollaphone22 with dual boot (VollaOS and Ubuntu Touch on the SD-Card). I've never head before this problem with previous version (till 2024). I tried to unmount and mount again UT but the problem still remain. Black screen

Hi @AAM42 Just use the UBports installer. Go to this page, everything is explained: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/algiz/ I hope it'll go smoothly.

@jojumaxx Hi! I have similar problems, looks like using waydroid and mounting ~/Music to it causes problems. The music app can't read the files anymore because the mounting changes the owner. See https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/apps/lomiri-music-app/-/issues/104

Hi @jojumaxx As far as I know, it is easier and faster to create a port for Ubuntu Touch on an Android than it is on the PinePhones. You seem to think that the time from contributors can be managed like in a company ; that is simply not true. When a porter has a desire for Ubuntu Touch on a device they own, they invest their time doing so and share it with the larger community. And that's probably not time they would have invested in Pine64's devices or another Ubuntu Touch related project. A major chunk of development time is actually spent on keeping up with Ubuntu LTS. A effect is the Qt version supported and it lead to the fact that our browser is out of date. If we had the manpower a better strategy would be to keep up with Ubuntu Stable and update every 6 months, but that is out of reach at the moment. To answer your question we are not running after Android and there are few ports to newer devices. The exceptions I have in mind are Fairphone5 and Volla better we are partnering with them. We partnered with Pine64 but it was very difficult to improve with the drivers provided if I understood it correctly. I for sure would love to have an open hardware phone well supported by Ubuntu Touch. But it has some challenges that we could not address without compromising the OS so focus shifted. Now if you can motivate enough skilled developers to improve the Pine devices situation that would be great and welcome by many I'm sure. What Oren is doing with the PinePhones is remarkable, you're absolutely right. And I'm sure he appreciates the gratitude love and if you can donate it's always appreciated...
