@Keneda Cannot find the Mac version, Linux version only. I found version 0.11.0 failed to work on my 2011 Macbook Pro - installed Ubuntu 24.04, getting rid of MacOS and the installer works....

RE: How difficult is it compared to installation on a PC?
@Alain You don't have to "root" the device, just unlock the bootloader. Snaps are getting quite functional, but there are people better placed to answer that. The games are pretty basic, but quite fun and you have control, not Google or it's cohorts.
As for installing, it is pretty straightforward and the tablet you are getting is up there as well supported.

RE: downgrading to Android 10 to install Ubuntu Touch
@Lindisfarne You do not need to root the device.
OEM unlocking is not necessary at this stage.
You need a Windows PC (running Windows) and you need to download one of the Android ROMs on the devices page for that device, unzip it and find the MSM Download tool.
Please read here to understand how to use the Tool and take your time.
Once the tool has finished flashing, the device will reboot, then you can set up Android, unlock the bootloader , set up Android again and then install UT.
I have not got the MSM Download tool to run on Linux or in a Virtual Windows machine within Linux.

Though we expect this to be a smooth process there may be unexpected surprises
Famous words in the IT service. I hope it goes smoothly. Will there be an update when complete?

RE: MSM Download tool cannot find OnePlus Nord N10
@davids Install the Qualcomm driver and service what happens when you connect the device. I am not on my PC, but download one from somewhere with the usual precautions and all seems fine.

RE: MSM Download tool cannot find OnePlus Nord N10
@davids I have never had to do that on Windows. The device is always picked up properly. Unfortunately MSM tool on Linux doesn't work . When connected, what shows up under COM ports in Windows Device. Manager? This is important as it can be in another mode that is picked up, but that mode won't work with MSM Download tool.

RE: MSM Download tool cannot find OnePlus Nord N10
@frifo I am talking about Windows device manager, not the MSM Download tool. The device has to be in the correct EDL state to be detected by the MSM tool.

RE: MSM Download tool cannot find OnePlus Nord N10
@frifo When the device is in EDL mode and attached to the PC, what shows up in Device Manager under COM ports?

RE: installation on phone with postmarketOS
@rmrmg you need to use the fastboot version. Power off the device and use the key combination for the device to get to the bootloader. Unzip the Android ROM and open a terminal in the unzipped folder. Then run the flash_all.bat file (Windows). Do not relock the bootloader, set up Android again then you are ready to install UT.

RE: Restart bug
@drbsin mine seems ok, takes a while though.

RE: display remains turned on until turned off using power button
@drbsin The porter said there are some issues with some of the sensors and is still ironing things out. It will be sorted at some stage. At the moment there is a push to move to Noble (24.04) as well as maintaining Focal.

RE: Manual ip parameters missing in wifi setup
@kugiigi said in Manual ip parameters missing in wifi setup:
I guess using nmtui/nmcli is easier
It is for the idiots like me.....
However I use a program to monitor my routers IP and MAC attachments so I can knock a device off if required and can access a device too if required.
-
RE: Manual ip parameters missing in wifi setup
@drbsin You would set the IP on the device to static when it is given it by the IP server. This is retained on the device, so if you move AP's the device won't connect. System Admins will do this on mobile devices such as laptops and tablets that are retained on site, then lock out the network settings to disallow them connecting elsewhere.

RE: mouse not working over the full screen
@developerbayman I thought thats was a bug with Lomiri?
-
RE: Manual ip parameters missing in wifi setup
@drbsin Most likely as it is a mobile device and the expectation you will be transient using different AP's. If you have a static IP you would not be able to connect to another AP. Does your router not use MAC binding, i.e it assigns an IP through DHCP, then binds the MAC address of the device to the assigned IP address?

RE: OnePlus Nord N10 5G (BE2029): Locked after flashing OxygenOS
@HarryBass I have never experienced this on any device.if the OEM unlock is greyed out, make sure you have a valid internet connection and also a SIM with mobile data works. If that fails, reflash with the MSM Download tool. Is your IMEI present? Also make sure your data and time is correct for your region.

RE: Where is the trash bin ?
@arubislander Thats kind of what I thought, but you have confirmed. I had a good search for answers and rooted around the system to no avail. I thought the deleted files would be cached somewhere where you normally won't have access too.
