@schouk I don't use anbox. Hopefully someone with more experience will reply. But for now, based on my search, can you run anbox-tool disable
then try the camera and anbox-tool status
, and then re-enable it?

RE: Hangs after new firmware. Nexus 5
Could there be a dependence on the Android firmware? I have the latest of their 5.1.1, because once I tried the last of the 6.?? and it took longer to boot. What's yours?

RE: N5 Camera image freeze
@schouk In my experience it freezes the 1st time after a reboot, then works fine. No change with OTA-10.
Could the behaviour be different with Android firmware? I have the latest of their 5.1.1s. What's yours?

RE: OTA-10 Has Been Released
@kugiigi The on-screen keyboard is just as big as before the update. But IMO it can be shortened to show more screen area, especially may be useful in terminal. (my gsettings fix for the position is a separate item)
-
RE: OTA-10 Has Been Released
I installed the update, and now on-screen keyboard seems larger, for example covering the bottom controls in terminal, covering parts of the password screen. Would it be a good idea to reinstall the apps?
EDIT: I found a workaround:
gsettings set com.canonical.keyboard.maliit disable-height false
Still, the keyboard height seems too large for Nexus 5's screen.

This better be fixed asap, because it may be applicable to MS skype for business (dozens of millions of corporate users) and who knows what other systems.
[...] it is not customary to use language like '[t]his better be fixed asap', unless you are willing to put in the work yourself. And sorry, lack of skills is no excuse in this instance.
I though that the purpose of this open source project was to expand horizons, offer a viable alternative and attract people. However, your attitude doesn't seem in sync with those.
All I wanted is to try to contribute by sharing my observations to raise awareness of a potential bug. Do you at least have enough skills to find out if the issue is known?

RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
@Lakotaubp Sorry I didn't get your point. My Skype calls are to fixed and mobile phone numbers, and they work fine in any desktop system that I've been using in the past ~10 years. It's about UT phone app that is not accepting calls from Skype.

RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
@Lakotaubp As official as it gets on Ubuntu desktop (https://repo.skype.com/deb stable main). Please read my posts, I'm talking about incoming cellphone calls from Skype desktop to UT.

RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
Oh hell! I've just found out that the incoming calls fail from Skype!
This better be fixed asap, because it may be applicable to MS skype for business (dozens of millions of corporate users) and who knows what other systems.
Until fixed, I regretfully will have to go back to the Monster on this phone, I can't afford "sorry I missed your call because I prefer Linux".

RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
@Giiba I did several full installs, always with the wipe option, even tried the latest Android 6.0.1 firmware, no result.
What else could I be missing?
My SIM is good, works fine in another phone.
Also: I've been wiping everything I could in the Android and Ubuntu sections of the Recovery mode. Also tried the full reinstall from Ubuntu system settings. -
RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
Updating Android to 5.1.1 helped the sound quality in Ubuntu, but the issue of not receiving calls still the same. The screen flashes "call error" with a red (hangup) button at bottom for a second, then goes back to dial pad.
The phone works as expected in Android, so it's not the faulty h/w.

RE: Please help to revive Nexus 5
Update: the problem of updating Android was solved by switching from a desktop to a laptop.
Same OS (Ubuntu 16.04), same USB cable. The only diff is the kernel version, 4.15 vs 4.4, and a slightly newer h/w.
Funny, isn't it?

Please help to revive Nexus 5
Greetings to all. A few days ago I installed Ubuntu 16.04 OTA-9 on a new Nexus 5 (never used previously, never updated).
It went fine, but the sound of outgoing calls was poor, and incoming calls were not received (the phone app was flashing once every time, but no answer to the caller).
My search lead me to the need to update the Android firmware. Armed with the latest image from dl.google.com, I went to install it, but something went wrong.
Now I cannot even boot to any system, and adb devices shows nothing. All I can see is the bootloader and recovery modes, but how do I get the new img files into the phone?
