I actually don’t see a way to change the ringtone. I even looked around in the file system to see if I could find a place the ringtone might be stored, but no luck.

I’d imagine them to be here
purism@pureos:~$ ls -la /usr/share/sounds/librem5/stereo/
total 492
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 4 17:56 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 4 17:56 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23363 Oct 4 2019 message-new-email.oga
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17650 Oct 4 2019 message-new-instant.oga
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 192570 Oct 4 2019 phone-incoming-call.oga
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 34127 Oct 4 2019 system-ready.oga
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 213909 Oct 4 2019 video-incoming-call.oga
And the name of the file simply matches the emitted event (phone-incoming-call in this case). It is played by the GSound as system event.
You would need to change the scheme
purism@pureos:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name
'librem5'
purism@pureos:~$
or override it locally in .local/share/sounds.
but I don’t have anything to test the ringing.

Yep. Same on L5. Thanks.
It works - maybe:
- U2F as such works (on my Dogwood, but I assume on any L5)
- Gnome Web does not support U2F, at least not on the L5
- Firefox ESR does support U2F on the L5
I haven’t tested any of the other modes (i.e. other than U2F) that some Yubikeys offer.
Edit to add:
So, “installing a web page as an app” doesn’t work if U2F is required for login - Gnome Web can install but has no U2F, while Firefox has U2F but can’t install a web page as an app, to my knowledge

Any particular reason why you specify “uncompressed” and/or “.flac”?
Based on the later post, maybe it wants a .oga file. I use SoundConverter for that kind of thing and it should be happy to convert from FLAC to Ogg.
Imagine you’re at your usual Friday happy hour or Sunday afternoon beer bust and a sufficiently buzzed friend is oohing and aahing over your cool new Linux phone, and they now have a sudden interest in trying PureOS on their laptop when they get home.
“Well,” you say, “check it out…I’ll burn a bootable image for ya.” (Just so happens they have a spare USB-C drive in their pocket. And you just so happen to keep a downloaded PureOS image on your microSD card.)

Requires only a slight scaling down and switching to landscape:
Voila!

Downloaded image for the correct architecture. An ARM image that you may have used on the phone won’t be much good on an x86 laptop.

Good point. I was thinking it even if I didn’t say it. Thanks.
The government knew that - but we didn’t.

It’s nice to have some preamble to set the scene of the use case - shows that you care, shows that the apps have real world use 
Health (flatpak):
Enter personal stats:
Choose an activity, then add one or more measures; remaining fields auto-calculate:
Record your weight regularly; track over time:
D’oh!!! So close!
Optional sync with Evil Corp:
Otherwise, app scales and works well, and looks like a good way to track your activity level. (Not a pedometer, by the way.)

I installed pyTrainer (pureos-amber) for testing. It has to be scaled down to a very tiny state to even see it all, but then it’s much too difficult to use, unfortunately. At larger scale it doesn’t scroll or drag to touch, which prevents you from getting to the off-screen parts.
Mastercard Online Currency Converter (as a web app):
I found and tested a couple of different converter apps, but they either didn’t launch or weren’t very usable, so this web app is a good option and has any currency rate you are likely to encounter.
Pro tip: Practically no disk space used.
There are lots of other conversion calculator websites, of course.
AFAIK you can use the Calculator app for that from the GNOME-DE … or if you have a national bank site you can make a web-app from gnome-web-browser …
8’0"? You must lead an interesting life.

As far as I can tell, the installed calculator doesn’t have a way to switch to financial mode, although there is a setting for exchange rate interval (daily, weekly, etc.). Maybe there’s a plug-in to add that…?
I tested Mate Calculator, but it doesn’t fit the screen, unfortunately.
Mastercard and Visa are a great direct source for exchange rates, of course. Especially since we’re probably using one of their credit cards or ATM cards for the transaction.

Markets flatpak can also be used to track exchange rates, as I previously indicated:
