    I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur. Gaming is my achilles heel in that regard. I also occasionally sell privacy friendly systems on Ebay.

    • RE: Koodo Support

      So I had a chance to use the X23 today while running errands. I was in Brantford, Ancaster, Onondaga, as well as other parts of Brant county, to give those in Ontario an idea. Overall signal strength was good in urban parts and poor in rural ones. In my basement at home I was in and out as to whether I could even send a text or make a call as I am out in the boonies. . This wasn't the case when I had an X23 on Volla OS a couple years ago. Some good news is that it picked up my APN right away. I did however have to manually input the APN settings. After that internet worked on mobile data right away. I tried sending a picture via text and it failed though so MMS is not quite there. VOLTE support was listed on my cell menu so that is a good sign. I've been considering a switch to Rogers for other reasons so if I do make that change i'll make an updated post about that experience.

    • RE: Need a Way to View My Login Info To Login To Various Apps

      So I tried Tedit but it wouldn't display the contents of the plaintext document. I also exported my db to a csv file but sorting through that garbled mess was going to be a chore. I then remembered that there was a Bitwarden app so I downloaded that but it no longer works as of last year according to Github issues. I next tried to load the Bitwarden website but Morph and uWolf wouldn't display the page. I then finally found a way. I created a note with the logins I needed on Nextcloud and synced Jotit Cloud Notes with my account which brought the note down so I could copy and paste the data. A happy ending. Still better than typing out multiple 40 character passwords manually.

    • Need a Way to View My Login Info To Login To Various Apps

      So I can't get KeePass to open my password database from KeePassXC. I tried creating a new database using a KDBX3 instead of KDBX4 and still just never opens it. I then had the idea of copying the login info for my programs into a text file but I can't seem to find a program on Ubuntu Touch that will open a plain text document. I can't send it via email as the email account is one of the logins I need. I don't want to temporarily change the passwords to a bunch of things. I don't want to manually type out multiple 40 character passwords. Any other ideas ? I'm on a Volla X23 using OTA-9 of 20.04.

      Makes sense. I had that same issue when trying out Waydroid on FuriOS for my FLX1.

      Have any Canadian users here tried the Volla X23 on the Koodo network ? Was wondering if sms and calls currently work before I go drop $900 on it.

      I had used Ubuntu Touch a few years ago and may be coming back soon. I hear that it now has some Snap support. Has anybody tried the snaps for KeePassXC, Firefox, and ProtonMail ?
