 Do you use file manager : https://open-store.io/app/com.ubuntu.filemanager

 @Mikeee_128 [Try to reflash your device ..stock rom of android], bq devices must have Ubuntu Edition image on them before UT can be flashed
 @ParamAtma108 [I just tried the file manager that came with Ubuntu.], It's the same. And you can't see any files or drirectories ?
 At least you should have five standard directories : documents, Downloads, Lusic, Pictures and Videos.
 @dohbee [bq devices must have Ubuntu Edition image on them before UT can be flashed], Yes they do have.. but u giys are facing this issue bcz of ..ur cache memory required more space so reface it with the stock or .. using fastboot try to clean userdata and cache partition

 No. I will try that next time. For now I recovered my android system. Thanks.

 @Mikeee_128 [Yes they do have.. but u giys are facing this issue bcz of ..ur cache memory req …], reflashing android won't help, because it has a different partition layout from the Ubuntu Edition of the phone. but not knowing what channel one is trying to install makes it difficult to help as well. for example, if it's edge channel, the i

 @John (Marlin) [The lack of specific Android apps can be compensated for to a large extent by us …], to be fair though, "complete dark mode" doesn't exist on android either. even in Q which has a more pervasive dark mode setting, most apps still have their own "branded" coloring

[21:30] <ubptgbot> here a way to access a pen drive whilst outputting to hdmi. I’m guessing I’d need a powered micro usb hub to achieve all this?
 no, not with any micro-usb based devices
 it would require separate port for video and usb to do that
 So here’s my thinking nexus 5 to powered micro usb hub - usb pen drive ?

 And then another port from the hub to slimport to output to hdmi
 you can't do OTG and SlimPort at same time, no
