I think this issue is related to https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri-app-launch/-/merge_requests/47#note_1567842127. As I understand from the discussion, if lomiri-app-launch is unable to write oom_adj values, it will attempt to spawn an OOM SUID helper, and doing so for every thread takes lot of time/resources.

The easiest workaround for now is to revert Android commits in the device port kernel that made read-only oom_adj (as they had been also discarded upstream):

I know it's an early question but is it possible to run Android apps via Anbox?
Is it possible to dualboot?
Remember 16.04 will be supported in 3 more years.
Would I be able to install a 18.04 desktop container?

I'm a week late, but I didn't look much into this yet. In theory, Anbox works on "official" MediaTek UBPorts devices, but it needs some kernel patches.

Dualboot works same way as with Android/Debian. As for 18.04 container, that sounds like what Libertine does if you want to run graphical apps. Not sure if it has been ported to 16.04 yet, you can check this in general discussions/project GitHub issues as it's not specific to this device.

@doniks said in Gemini PDA:

That list sounds rather complete. What's missing in your opinion for daily use?

Getting it more polished and stable. Same can be said about UBPorts 16.04 itself, which is still in devel (see https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/milestone/7), and lots of apps would need to be recompiled for it to work properly.

@zzarr said in Gemini PDA:

Is there a simple way to port Ubuntu Touch to the device?

No shortcuts or simple ways here :). I'm working on it though:

It's not ready for daily use, but what currently works (with different hacks) is:

• Display/Touch screen
• Keyboard
• Cellular connectivity + outgoing voice calls
• Sound
• Wi-Fi
• Bluetooth

If you want to help with porting or test it, you can ping me in UBPorts Telegram group.

As for desktop Ubuntu, I suppose it's currently on hold with main focus being put on Debian. Those two are going to share adaptation bits (in fact, the current plan is to use some Ubuntu Touch software and middleware on "desktop" Debian to provide, for example, phone application), so it doesn't make sense to duplicate efforts with limited resources just now.
