Octo4a - run OctoPrint on Android

Anyone have tips for getting the phone to actually connect to the printer? I have an ender 3, about half the time (probably less) octo4a fires up, printer says it's connected and I can actually access everything from the computer. The rest of the time octo starts up and it just sayd "connect with the otg" sic. Eventually when it connects, it works about half the time.

Right now I have the server up, it says the printer is connected, but going through the web server it won't autodected the printer.
Could not autodetect your printer

No working connection parameters could be found. Are you sure your printer is physically connected and supported? Refer to the FAQ for help in debugging this."
I can see through the camera but there is no talking going on between the phone and the printer itself. I've tried restarting both items repeatedly but nothing is happening except I'm getting irritated.

Has anyone successfully managed to access files from a network share on Octoprint running on android ?

I just set up my old LG G6 with a MUR 460 upgrade as Octoprint server and wanted to share my experience.

I successfully installed on Havoc OS with A11 and got the corrupt installation message after setting everything up and runnjng successfully. But when rebooting the error came. I tried a lot mentioned here but nothing worked except giving the server a static ip via router.

I don't know if this was really the solution but now it works without problems. Hope it helps.
