Sorry not Ut related post,
Can be deleted if needed
Hej had a similiar problem on the weekend. Browser time out and couldnt open conections, same for all the webbler webapps (browser-based)
I was able to use the open-store and teleports also worked fine.
In the end i noticed that my time-zone was set to manually and the time was off by 3hours amd a couple of days...
So i switched it back to automatic and voilà pages open in both browsers.
Sorry, dont now if it helps.
Would be great if it be as easy as that.
@Nymexx a game changer is an app called webber! Which allows you to create webapps (shortcuts) to webpages. Those webapps will appear together with all the other apps in the menu. They are really great to fill the gap for apps that I'm missing from android. Well as long as there is a web page available.
Example:
Bandcamp
My banking service
We transfer
A web forum
Bitchute
...
...
And many more
There is also an app called "home"
which allows you to kinda create a home screen
With a clock, calender, search bar and other little widgets. Just available on the open store accessed by browser. Because its a version for the previos UT Xenial but it works perfect.
Make sure to also install the "home weather widget“ for a weather indicator on the "home-screen"
I'd love to upload a picture to show you a possible layout...but i just dont know how
This morning i saw the 601 dev update,
So i just did the update not knowing what to expect. After the phone fairphone 4 had restartet and I opened my music-player and the gallery app as usual to preload its content for the day (as i had to do multiple times a day).
To my astonishment the gallery app opened straight away and displayed immediately all the pictures stored (this could take up to an hour before) same goes for my music library and when ever a new file would be added the rescan of content would start a new...
I dont know what fixed the issue or if it fixed itself.
But it didnt happen with the previous dev 600 update
So thank you all.
Hej great question, well i use UT on a fairphone 4 as my daily driver to browse, research download music an videos, as media device for music and video playback on my tv, as my organizer for work and my gardening hobby plant diaries and so.
So ye I'm quite happy with UT, even if the getting used to period was a bit challenging but my conversion from android and the feeling of independence are priceless. 
@Plarde Hej, first of all thanks for the great app!
Was just on the way an needed to edit out some personal details. Worked like a charm.
I'd like to mention a few things I've noticed using Annotate on my FP4
First.
It seams like I'm unable to open pdf files in file-manager in Annotate. File-manager / pdf / open with (documentviewer/sturmreader) Annotate is there and does open but without the chosen pdf pre loaded. The standard way works,
Start-Annotate / browse-file-manager / choose-Pdf ...and get to work.*
Second.
I missed a few times to collapse the bottom menu after choosing eraser-tool... So i deleted some lines of text in the backround hehe
Is there a revert back button? Is one planned?
Nothing tragic I had to start from the the beginning
but with the original Pdf stored in file mananger.
The ones preloaded through accesing - on Anno's main Menu are already changed (or the changes have been applied) even without them being saved or exported by me! Some kind of autosave or draft feature?
*ah it imports a copy to work on, thats clever.
So ye thanks a bunch @Plarde
Hej all,
i've had quite the experience going to my local hardware store to get a new bt speaker.
As usual i'd pick out a speaker or head-phones and connect it to my device and switch through some songs and sound settings to test if my ears like what they hear...
On my Fairphone4 with UT the bluetooth picked up each and every signal in the store, tv's, phones, stereo's etc...
(My old android just picked up a couple around me as I'm used too)
I kept on scrolling the sheer amount of devices was overwhelming even for me.
The overload was so crazy that bluetooth crashed and couldnt be switched on through settings.
I restartet the phone a couple of times which diddnt help..
In the end i switched it off properly... turned it back on and there we go...BT calmed down...and was ready to rumble... By that time i was almost home
Is there a way to filter bt devices that are in close proximity?
Thanks for reading, its really a problem i just know i wont scroll through bt devices list when I'm in crowded places ...
@Plarde just saw that you mentioned already what i wrote
Looking forward to experience the changes in the feature.
hej Barry your post reminded me of my own poat
a problem that persisted from the beginning and some how solved it self.
https://forums.ubports.com/post/78300
Btw a reboot does not work the same as a shut down. Like when your wi-fi or bluetooth has trouble... A reboot wont solve it but a shut down and proper re-start will...for me anyways
Dont know if any of this helps,
But i've noticed improvements on my device
over time. So no worries
@arubislander oh wow, I've always seen it as the reboot not crash 
. Especially if things got messy i would just do the reboot/crash and all is well hehe.
@gandalf hej fellow wizard,
On my fp4, reboots are instantly!
Do you maybe mean a proper shut down?
After a proper shut down, it takes a little while until you can start up again.
I just checked, reboot of the os is instantly and does not reboot to boot loader but into theos and greats you with your lock screen (no pin required)
It could be that you also have (power off) menu troubles.
Try leaving your finger on the Restart button for a moment before releasing.
On my device: if i just quick tab restart or shutdown it doesnt alway do exactly whats asked of it.
Resulting in shut down when restart is wanted and vis versa.
Hope it helps
Hej just a feedback here on my Fairphone4.
No changes or problems to my daily usage since the update. Since its my daily driver i would notice any troubles...
-Battery holds up
-Network connections work and stable
-Bluetooth does as it should
-Restart and shut down as usual (not always
responding as it should)
-Notification/Ringtones work
....
Ye so for now all is well, will upate if something is out of the ordinary.
Just updated again! Works on FP4.
Thanks for the quick solve.
Any dev of the music app around? Would have some questions?
@kugiigi wow I'm buffled 5% over night with wifi (on) on the FP4...
My FP4 loses something between 15% to 20% of charge with just sim/data (on) over night.
Daily consumption with usage holds stable though,
this probaly sounds stupid but for me,
It seams my phone keeps a better battery- household when in use, rather than squatting around all night on the desk.
Sorry but in my case its not Ota5 specific, the situation already persists from the beginning.
Batter-saver has helped to correct it but not fully.
Next step is to get a new battery even if this one is just 6month old... always good to have a spare one....
...5%...

This issue has been solved by troubel-shooting with the dev Lional.
Fix:
Prevent app suspension in UTTT was toggled on for "Batter-saver" which caused chargin troubles and the phone keeps a better chage.
Thanks for the quick respond.
@lduboeuf hej, sorry je should have mentioned that. Yes it's the battersaver app from the openstore. Focal on a fairphone4.
By now I've made a fresh install and I'm running the release channel. Still its the same for me, so I just keep the app open and go on with my day.
Still thanks for the good work!
Waiting for the next grand os update so maybe a lots of small things will just solve themselves.
