@RapidRotator If you can do something like this, please do contribute. At the moment it is way above my brain grade.

@RapidRotator said in Why does UT not have assisted GPS?:

Is it simply that nobody had the time yet?

That is the most likely reason. For an OS with apps developed by and with a community, not everything will or can be done. That is also to say that it could be done in the future.

The UK Government are pushing for the same thing, something that no UK Voter wants. Digital ID is not wanted in the UK as we have enough forms of ID to use and having a single ID is just open to abuse through hacking and other fraud. Everyone also knows it will only be open to Android and iOS (see certain authenticators and banking apps to start off with) and everyone knows our UK Government will do it in the cheapest and least secure way possible. Added to that it is also a way to monitor the population through the use of it.

@gpatel-fr said in French ID app interoperability.:

Also behind the facade of openness, there are still quite a lot of love of secret in the French administration.

I love that line, that is well worth quoting.

Check your date and time for your timezone is correct.

Have you checked here or asked as the audience will be a lot larger?

@jeffreyk Hi, it doesn't work like that. If your device is not on the supported list and a search doesn't show any one porting the device then if you have the skills and knowledge you will have to port UT to that device yourself. The alternative is to get a device that is on the supported list.

@ubuntoutou Unfortunately you will lose your data this way to get a usable device. Boot into the bootloader (fastboot) using the key combination from power off, if I remember it is volume down and power together. Fire up the installer on the pc and manually select the device and install UT. If you leave wipe data unticked you will still end up with the old passkey.

@theprivacydad Yes, it will put partitioning back to stock and various other things is a requirement for UT to work.

@k.nacke You have Waydroid working on this low RAM device?

@Amarurtuuq Bengal is correct, it is the code name of the SoC (System on Chip) for this device, Billie2

@Amarurtuuq

@Amarurtuuq that's normal if you are installing from fastboot. Select your device from the drop down menu.

@Amarurtuuq OK hold the Volume up, Volume down and power together for about 40 seconds, that should turn the device off.

Just for your info, I had the same issue on one of my N100's. Charging it to 100% resolved the issue (for now, it is still working).

@Moem The banks in the UK are really pushing you to use their app. For example if you log in on a browser, it will push you to authenticate with your app on your phone or tablet. The banks have close the vast majority of counters and now run a service (no cash withdrawals) where a van goes from community to community on set days for all banks to cater for those who don't online bank. Likewise if you do need a big cash withdrawal (i.e over 1000 euros) then they question you like you are a naughty child. (Think of Greta Thunberg saying "how dare you withdraw your own money, how dare you!).

Then to work you now have to have an authenticator app and I have to have the M$ authenticator, no choice. If I don't have it I cannot get into works systems!

The UK is really going to rack and ruin......

@Amarurtuuq MSM Download tool is the tool (Windows only) used to flash a stock Android ROM onto this device. If the RAM chip has gone then this isn't worth doing as it can be finicky to get this device into EDL mode (Emergency Download mode) and it will unlikely not work.

To boot into recovery mode, where you can wipe cache, power off the device and hold volume down and power, when the device boots, release the power button, but hold the volume down button until it reaches recovery. If it won't reach recovery, leave it powered off on charge overnight and try again. If that fails it is battery or motherboard.

Things to try. Power off the device.

1. Boot int the bootloader (fastboot mode) and see if the PC recognises the device in a fastboot terminal.

2. See if it boots into recovery and if it does, wipe cache.

3. Power off the device and put it on charge and see if it charges up.

You may need to spend cash now if all the above fails.

If it still boots to this Qualcomm CrashDump Mode you may need to replace the battery.

If that fails, it is usually a RAM chip failure, either the chip has failed or it requires a reball/reflow or a replacement and it may be cheaper to get a broken use device or mainboard from Aliexpress and replace it.

From experience, most Qualcomm CrashDumps are due to a weak or low charge battery.

@k.nacke That will be the reason. 2Gb and less is not enough to run the system and Waydroid on any UT device.

@TheTrench You need to delve deeper into 5G and what 5G is, plus what Android version supports 5G on that device. 5G falls into two categories - 5G Non Stand Alone (NSA) and 5G (SA). 5G NSA piggybacks of the 4G LTE infrastructure end to end in simple terms. 5G SA is full 5G end to end. This can be affected by available networks, service providers, Android versions and vendor BLOBs and device hardware.

You cannot expect newer firmware files to work on an older version of Android without issues or just not working.

I bought a 5G device when 5G was in its infancy and always got 4G LTE indicated and 4G speeds. 5G has a better infrastructure now and it still shows 4G LTE in a lot of cases. My new device is 5G and always shows 5G and is a bit quicker, but not in all cases.

I got my (x2) BQ Aquaris 4.5 on the day of release. I spammed that buy button and got 2 before they all sold out. I used it as a daily driver for quite a bit (didn't Internet bank then or (have to) use Microsoft Authenticator) back then, the other was for demonstrating. Loved Scopes and would like to see them come back again. I still have one device (on Xenial) which will soon be defunct as a phone as 3G and 2G are going soon.

Read the porters notes here.

It looks like you have the T-Mobile version of the N100. You need to upgrade/downgrade to the stipulated firmware used by the porter.

Here is a similar story.
