@air409, Hello! Problem with openvpn in ubuntu touch is old. Someone dont want vpn in ubports firmware. Openvpn autentication in ubports only with 3 files, password not working. Best way for ubports in the future - wireguard. Ask support of ubports, when they make real working vpn? I think they just dont want.

@arubislander, All update options (system update and ubports-installer) are interrupted at the firmware installation stage (ubuntu touch logo and line installation indicator), except one-manual installation via TWRP. To update the device I have to download separately the firmware and run the installer in TWRP environment. Is there a link to new releases of updated ubports firmware where I could download it and install manually?

@arubislander, Before release of the OTA-11 firmware, I updated through TRWP, but I took the firmware from ubports-installer. I have a fully unlocked Meizu pro 5 from the factory (powered by ubuntu). Now I can not extract the updated firmware from the installer, is there a link to the server where OTA (8 files) for Meizu pro 5 (16.04 turbo stable) is uploaded?

@arubislander, Hello! I am happy to use ubports on my Meizu pro5, now I am on OTA-11, but I am forced update my device only with TWRP. Last Ubports-installer cant updated firmware (after pushing ota in to device I see white screen and "ask support"). How you update your Meizu pro5? Maybe needs wipe device?

@mooncosmique , hello! You can use TWRP. If you have it, go to the backup directory and make backup all your system. Backup will be save on phone disk space. If you want make only contacts backup go by the link /home/phablet/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system/contacts.db
and copy this file to pc.

How to change (edit) this file?
Ubports support:
"in the /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections directory the vpn confige files are stored.
If i edit the vpn config like this:

password-flags=0
And add the following:
[vpn-secrets]
password=YourPassword
Now restart network manager by:
service network-manager restart

The connection could be established by shifting the key in the networking-manager gui."

I cant open and copy this file, how can I edit vpn password?
