RE: Furiphone FLX1 with FuriOS
@tuXut Not at all.
Don't know how the project is going now, but it seems the devices are now ready to be ordered on their website. -
RE: Waydroid support on FP4
@Pingu To be honnest, yes it does....as long as WayDroid container is running.
But you can stop the container at any time. Also, WayDroid does not start automatically on boot.
When you launch the first Android App, it launches the LineageOS container. -
RE: Waydroid support on FP4
@Pingu So I think you should be able to unroll the whole list.
I just copy-paste below the device list supported by WayDroid Helper....from WayDroid Helper on the OpenStore.I guess one could add the Redmi Note 9S as it works also on it.
As for the Fairphone 4, its seems WayDroid also works according to the Telegram community user group (Ubuntu Touch on Fairphone 4)
Sources:
https://open-store.io/app/waydroidhelper.aaronhafer
https://t.me/ut_on_fp4The following devices are supported:
- Fairephone 3/3+
- MI A2 (No WiFi if used with Google Apps)
- Pixel / Pixel XL
- Pixel 2 XL
- Pixel 3a
- Poco F1
- Redmi Note 7
- Redmi Note 7 Pro
- Redmi Note 9 Pro
- Redmi Note 9 Pro Max
- SHIFT6mq
- Vollaphone
- VollaX
Partial functionality:
- Pinephone (Unstable due to the immature porting of the device).
- Pixel 3a XL (Video playback doesn't work on WayDroid)
- Redmi 9 (No external storage)

RE: Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 20.04 OTA-8
@Vlad-Nirky Have you tried refreshing your diary after adding the item by pressing the little arrow at the top?
Sometimes it can take up to 24 hours to synchronise with Google Calendar. I suggest you check your Google calendar online tomorrow. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch Q&A 156 blog and audio now available
@alagirialagiri According to the Development Chanel latest statement, 20.04 OTA-8 scheduled for release in early March.
This is not official, and will certainly be announced in the coming days.https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/project-management/-/issues/14

RE: Fairphone 4 No sound
@Herndo It seems to me that the Fairphone 4's USB-C audio output isn't working yet on Ubuntu Touch, but in the meantime it's possible to connect Bluetooth headphones to it.
Concerning A-GPS (assisted GPS): this feature is still not supported yet, the device uses primary GPS for a satellite connection, which usually takes just a minute in good outdoor conditions.

RE: Redmi note 9s
Did you first flash MIUI Android 10 ROM before? The correct built number is 12.0.3.0.QJWMIXM.
If this is not clear for you, I strongly suggest you to refer to the Redmi Note 9S step by step installation guide below:

RE: 🎄❄️ happy holidays 2024/2025
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!
In my country I can check "Snow", as there's a snow layer about 25 cm (10 inches) on the outside here, that did not happened at Christmas for >10 years....
I'm already looking forward to a year 2025 full of exciting challenges for Ubuntu Touch! And above all: A huge thank you to all those who keep this magnificent operating system so Great.

RE: OnePlus Nord N100 - no inbound or outbound calling on AT&T
Well, OnePlus Nord N100 is not a "2G phone" and should connect at least on 4G frequencies (5G is coming soon on Ubuntu Touch, may already works on a few devices...?)
The problem is that Ubuntu Touch does not yet support VoLTE (calls on 4G), and that is mandatory on almost all carriers is USA now. Maybe, only T-Mobile does still support CSD standard phone calls?
VoLTE and IMS services are pretty hard to implement due to their proprietary features, lack of documentation and carriers white lists.
However, a deep work is in progress from our core team and it will slowly be available on more and more models during the next months.There's a dedicated Telegram Group where you can talk about this. Search for "UBports [North America Carrier Issues]". You will find some workarounds and other useful information. You will also be able to share ideas with other North American Ubuntu Touch users.
So this is the status of your issue right now...

RE: Vibration issue
Fix has been officially pushed to dev channel (Thank you Adam).

RE: Oneplus 5T not detected by my pc ( Linux ) since ota-7
@vince-vs So I guess it's device specific since I've got no issue on my Redmi Note 9S.
Perhaps something you could try is to reinstall using UBports Installer (don't check wipe nor bootstrap options). -
RE: Oneplus 5T not detected by my pc ( Linux ) since ota-7
@vince-vs I think you did duplicate your question here:

RE: Focal OTA-7 Available Today
@vince-vs Maybe MTP protocol isn't for some reason active anymore?
You can download "Ubuntu Touch Tweak Tool" in the OpenStore.
Open the app, Go up left on the 3 dots, select => System => ADB settings => USB mode and select MTP - Media Transfer Protocol.Then reboot the device and see if it works.

RE: whatspp on lge nexus 5?
@jojo WhatsWeb is a Web access of Whatsapp, so it needs to be paired to an official device that's use the real Whatsapp application.
Unfortunately Nexus 5 is dropped down by UBports and runs an ancient and deprecated version of Ubuntu Touch. It currently uses the old Ubuntu 16.04 repositories.
The reason is that it's somehow pretty hard to be upgraded to a newer version due to its old hardware. Currently Ubuntu Touch is based on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal, and will move to 24.04 Noble in the upcoming months.
For the same reason, it's not compatible with WayDroid container, which runs only on Halium 9 and < ports. Nexus 5 is based on Halium 5...So I'm sorry, but there's no chance to use Android apps on Nexus 5 using Ubuntu Touch so far.

RE: Mobile data on MetroPCS
@elysian893 I guess you did install UT yourself?
To do so, if I'm right, you first have to revert back to Android 11 before installing Ubuntu Touch. The reason is that the device has been ported on Android 11 and thus it needs specifically those vendor firmware from Fairphone. If in the meantime the device has been upgraded to A12 or 13, then there are large chances that you will get issues on the general use. -
RE: Mobile data on MetroPCS
@elysian893 Ok than. Did you try your SIM card in another phone, just to ensure that it's not something related to your subscription?
Did you try to change your location to try another cell tower?A part from that, it's pretty hard for me to tell you some more as I live in Switzerland.
Just from my experience here, I use my home carrier (Salt.) and I've got 4G cellular data that work pretty well. I did not have to change anything in the phone settings. Now Ubuntu Touch is able to download the carrier's cellular settings directly from the SIM card.
All operators in Switzerland did stop MMS last year since it wasn't really used by people anymore - due to all third party messaging apps. So MMS field is now empty. Only the profile "Internet" is used.
Hope you will find decent help further...
