Hello! on my EndeavourOS laptop I have firewalld running, and it blocks any kde-connect attempt to connect to my android phone. So I run

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=kdeconnect
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

as suggested here, and it now works the majority of the time. The only problem it still have it that it cannot connect when the phone is connected to the pc hotspot (created from the network applet > hotspot). Unless I disable firewalld, it refuses to see my phone. How can I fix this? I'm not expert with firewalls, sorry if this is a dumb question :P

thanks in advance!
