@Futura Oh I see. That's the Noble image (Ubuntu 24.04). I guess it's more stable or less buggy than focal

RE: FP5 OOBE Setup Hanging at WiFi
@Futura What do you mean "Daily"? I don't think FP5 has a Stable channel yet

RE: FP5 OOBE Setup Hanging at WiFi
There are possibly network isses in recent devel images since I encountered some recently. Do you have a sim card inserted? because in my experience that fixed most of the issues I encountered. I still get some reboots though just toggling wifi, hotspot and mobile data.

RE: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.0 is scheduled to be released on 24 September
@peat_psuwit So the framework name
ubuntu-touch-24.04-1.x
is the final name and thex
isn't some kind of a placeholder? I've been confused by this -
RE: Where do I report when something works?
@RJDan If you reported it in a forum post or a gitlab issue then you should updated there and also mention the steps you did that could have fixed it.

RE: Symlinks for downloads and music in home folder,why?
Maybe you did something related to mapping these folders to Waydroid?
-
RE: long time for waydroid init
@RJDan I don't know what's causing this but it does happen to some people from time to time. Probably the servers? In any case, it can take 5 mins or an hour in my experience

RE: Fairphone 5 bricked while attempting to install Ubuntu Touch
If it still boots to fastboot then I guesd you can run the installer again? If the screen says it's "untrusted" then it means it's already unlocked.

RE: Videos can't be read since today's core apps updates.
@kristatos Deleting that whole directory won't be good since some apps, for some reason, use it for important files such as Dekko as mentioned above. I believe libertine containers are also there

RE: Videos can't be read since today's core apps updates.
@kristatos Which cache do you clear/delete?
-
RE: Dekko login blocked by Google!?
@RJDan Yes, my Google accounts are set to
login
. Are you sure you enabled 2FA in your Google account and created an app password and used that in Dekko? I don't remember any extra steps when I setup mine. Perhaps it's also trying to fetch your data and you should wait a bit? -
RE: is eSIM available/supported on UT?
@RJDan You can wait for the esim manager in UT although not sure when it'll land. You can probably try it out from the repo.
Or you can reflash Android, set up the esim there then reinstall UT.

RE: External display question
@fair OSK will be disabled by default when an external keyboard is detectedm You can only force enable the OSK in this case but you can't force disable it.

RE: External display question
@fair An FHD 1080p would be the safest bet but I think it really depends on what resolutions the monitor supports and presents to UT. At the moment, UT doesn't have a setting to select the resolution and I'm not aware of any workaround or manual way to do it. My 4K TV for example sometimes defaults to 4096x2160@24hz or sometimes 1440p@120Hz and obviously the former is kind of unusable
I think the dock/adapter also have an impact although in my tests, I can't reliably make it go to a certain resolution regardless of which adapter/dock I use so I guess there's some randonness on whatever the TV and the UT device handshakes to
As for the USB device like keyboard and mouse, in my experience with my adapters, the result depends on when I plugged in the HDMI and the power. I can't remember which one needs to be first. I have no idea if this is also true with your monitor or if it's an issue with the FP4 or just in general.
In any case, I think it's hard to recommend doing this to be honest. There are a few major issues when using an external display that makes it quite a bad experience. Plugging and replugging isn't stable and would sometimes just show a black screen or a nonresponsive device. Launcher sometimes gets messed up upon connection. And the biggest thing in my opinion is that mouse scrolling is broken. The hope is that all these will be fixed in Noble.

RE: android 14 shipped with new FP5, do I need to move to 13?
@RJDan How long did you wait? Not sure why it's stuck there. In my case, it just always worked
-
RE: android 14 shipped with new FP5, do I need to move to 13?
It will work on Android 14 and I can confirm that but there's a risk you'll encounter random issues that other people won't encounter. So in short, I suggest you downgrade to Android 13. Fairphone provides a quick way to do it anyway

RE: How to record a screencast with UT?
Screen Recorder in the OpenStore. It doesn't support sound yet though.

RE: How to take screenshot?
@ygrex Did you by any chance do something with sharing UT folders with Waydroid?
-
RE: due to technical reasons this may be the end of the road for me for awhile
Flash the Android version required for that device. Sometimes other versions still "work" but it may have unexpected issues, worst case, it won't boot which is probably what you're encountering.

RE: Convergence FP4
@Pingu Unfortunately, using UT on an external display is not in a good state right now. There have been regressions during the focal upgrade. A major one is the wonky mouse scrolling. For some reason, it's offset so sometimes you'll have to hover to the right of the app to scroll it. Another issue is that the Launcher sometimes gets messed up when you connect to an external display. When this happens, do not pin apps or modify it otherwise your pinned apps will be messed up as well. So check first if your Launcher looks weird, if it is, I suggest you restart Lomiri via the Tweak tool.
