@keneda I do not have a complete solution for everyone, just what I did:

0. export LD_PRELOAD= (libtls-padding.so causes unexpected things)
1. boostrap chroot filesystem as per https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap
2. mount /proc and /sys, bind mount /run/dbus (optional for smbnetfs) and /dev (fuse there)
3. chroot in with 3003 (and optionally 3004) supplementary groups
4. add apt_ user to 3003 (and probably 3004) groups
5. edit /etc/resolv.conf with nameserver of preference
6. install smbnetfs with apt-get, configure as per https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Smbnetfs (I only needed auth line)
7. mount smbfs in chrooted environment with allow_others option
8. on a host filesystem as a phablet user create a symlink under Downloads (any folder accessible by filemanager without unlocking is fine) to the required share(s)

Hi,

presence of SD-card does not make any applications writing to it, so I've symlinked folders from home (Downloads, Pictures...) and it mostly works as expected, but certain applications, most annoyingly — Morph browser, it fails for download anything with ~/Downloads being symlinked to somewhere on SD-card mount

failed to find any useful messages in logs, Morph browser just pops up error message "The file cannot be written locally, due to access restrictions - 0B"

I'd expect it to come from apparmor, or some settings under Security->App Permissions, but found nothing related there

what prevents Morph browser from writing on SD-card?

interesting, all phone clients add trailing slash resulting in accessing something like //remote.php/webdav/Readme.md instead of the correct one /remote.php/webdav/Readme.md

got it fixed on proxy

For some reason I cannot make it transfer anything either direction, it displays webdav (nextcloud) content though, photo files can be previewed there, but neither download not upload cause any effect (no errors).

Strangely ubsync does nothing as well, no errors, it juts does not transfer anything between phone and server.

@harrisonpatm said in Accessing SMB shares, issues:

@ygrex No luck for me unfortunately. I dug around in the ~/.config folder for other places to modify, but still no joy.

you dug around looking for what? it is literally .config/com.ubuntu.filemanager/places.conf

finally got it resolved, deleted ~/Pictures (it was a symlink to other place on sdcard) and rebooted

@kugiigi said in How to take screenshot?:

@ygrex Did you by any chance do something with sharing UT folders with Waydroid?

nope, I do not have waydroid

@stanwood said in How to take screenshot?:

Did you try the other way?
Long press the power button and click on "screenshot".

Not sure it will change anything, but it's worth a try.

just checked this way, all the same result: screen flashes, clicking sound, but no files appeared

@harrisonpatm
mounting did not work well for me either, but shares are accessible with filemanager as described in https://forums.ubports.com/topic/4084/file-explorer-pc-files-samba-acces/4?_=1750938606398

Hi,

Pressing Up+Down volume buttons gives a screen flash, but nothing appears under Screenshots/ directory

not sure if it is relevant to the issue, but it also logs this lines:

Jun 26 13:36:03 ubuntu-phablet lomiri[2703]: [2025-06-26:13:36:03.404] qml: ItemGrabber: No fileName to save image to

tried fbcat, but it gives me distorted picture

and failed to get anything useful from raw /dev/fb0

tried it today at the same spot it worked last time

gave it up after 15 minutes, as per my understanding I did exactly the same thing but it just did not work today
