@TotalSonic it seems there is at least a bug to fix before implementation of a setting: https://salsa.debian.org/ubports-team/lomiri/-/issues/54

With help of bounties it could occur sooner than later: https://os-sci.com/lomiri#Contribute

@ancientsounds said in Do you think you know Ubuntu Touch ?:

@libremax
With more and more people getting unhappy with Google and Apple, there must be a great opportunity for some manufacurer and retailer to offer for sale a great off-the-shelf UT phone now?

For the moment we can already congratulate ourselves for

1. the consistency of Volla, which has been producing and marketing UT-embedded devices for 6 years and promoting them on its website,
2. the new partnership with Brax tech, whose launch of the Brax3 was a success, and the forthcoming availability of UT on this device.

@gpatel-fr said in Newbee trying hard, got a no space issue:

while your phone is a 'reference device', it don't have a lot of recent issues and that could mean that it's not widely used anymore.

With 3 circles in community strength, it means Pixel 3A is currently one of the most used devices (with Fairphone 4).

@CiberSheep February 9 2015 for the bq 4.5: https://web.archive.org/web/20150209170456/http://www.gadget-nations.net/2015/02/ubuntu-based-first-smartphone-e45-Announced.html
I got it for my birthday in March 2015.

@wgarcia To some extent, "Praise Ubuntu Touch, it's finally suppertime!"

You can test yourself by watching this recent speech by Alfred at the OpenAlt conference:

Well done @fredldotme !

@Keneda Assuming that the device is delivered correctly installed with Ubuntu Touch, this does not fall within the legal definition of fraud (scam).
The retailer is free to set his selling price, even if it is very high. And in this case, far too high for my taste.

@Alain said in Where is the Desktop?:

I'm looking for a way to group icons into folders. I've got games, utilities, etc. all mixed up.

Even if there is no folder called "Desktop", there's got to be a list somewhere of icons to display, along with links to their logo, I hope you see what I mean. A list of installed apps?

A feature request already exists:
https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri/-/issues/127
As said in that ticket: "Note that this issue is not a beginners' issue..."

And also a corresponding bounty (2000€) :

990 € a Fairphone 5 with Ubuntu Touch:

499 € a Fairphone 5 with Fairphone OS:
https://shop.fairphone.com/fr/fairphone-5

@messayisto At this time Fairphone 5 port is more mature than Volla Phones Quintus port who itself is more mature than Brax3 port : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

However, if you want multiboot, Quintus is to be preferred.
If you need VoLTE today, You'll need to check in details.

@Kamikaze UBports is a community and a foundation not a mobile OS. Ubuntu Touch is the mobile OS.
Please modify...

Have a look to Redmi Note 9 Pro: https://forums.ubports.com/post/85393

Excellent news about the Morph browser update and, more generally, the transition from Lomiri to Qt6: https://ubports.com/lomiri-roadmap

@theprivacydad Currently Morph browser is "out to date". Fortunately, an update is planned for the first quarter of 2026 : https://ubports.com/lomiri-roadmap

@Keneda For several weeks now... Have a look at : https://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=2084671#p22837946

@Caedem Yes, only what works, this thread will be useful if it makes it easier to choose a suitable device for those who absolutely need VoLTE.

VoLTE works correctly on your device, so please give details of
its model,
the version of UT used,
and if possible,
in which country and with which mobile operator.

@Lakotaubp Thanks for your quick reply and your following steps in that direction.

Firstly, I would like to make it clear that I have absolutely no reason to doubt the sound management of the funds available to the Foundation.
However, transparency about the use of financial resources is a basic good practice that is widely respected by foundations and other not-for-profit organisations.
Let's take two examples from the field of free software:

1. The Document Foundation, which steers the development of LibreOffice and has served as a model for the status of the UBports Foundation. Financial data is published regularly:
   https://www.documentfoundation.org/financials-and-reports/

2. PostmarketOS, a very small organization, which began fundraising in earnest only two years ago, has already published its financial data twice: https://postmarketos.org/blog/2025/03/17/pmOS-budget-and-financial-update/

The UBports Foundation has existed from memory for more than five years and the UBports community for nearly eight years.

So I think it's high time we corrected this oversight to show consideration for current donors and encourage many other potential donors by giving them visibility of the foundation's actions.

All of this with my great admiration for what has been achieved by the foundation and, more broadly, the community.

@kugiigi Don't know; I can't find a full specifications list.
