  The post at 13 Jan 2020, 23:29 suggests it is possibe to show different blink patterns (but ofcourse all white). It would be interesting to find out how to trigger these different modes. As for disabling the charging- or message received indication what would be the best way? A menu in the system settings? A config file in phablets home dir? The led notifications are guarded by a unity8. How can unity8 detect what phone/hardware it is running on? -Edit- I have been working on a way to disable showing charging state. See https://github.com/ubports/unity8/pull/283

  @arubislander it is, for sailfish, as for the dalvik clone used for android compatibility. But the community version of sailfish made their own, based on presage, which I guess is under GPL license (if any)

  I'm working on an app that needs permissions to access the user's Pictures directory. I'm programming with C++ and SDL. I set this in my apparmor file: { "policy_groups": [ "audio", "picture_files_read" ], "policy_version": 16.04 } I am able to access the app's directory here: /home/phablet/.local/share/appname.craig/ I can read and write to that directory. However, I am not able to read files from this directory: /home/phablet/Pictures Is there something I have over looked? Thank you for your help.

  @peat_psuwit I thought I did compile it from source, when I downloaded the linked sources of your first post and followed the Halium porting guide, didn't I? The new camera module is working fine with the current build/stack. Only the flash does not work.

  @Mark thank you for the answer I'm not able to look in the code, sorry. But when I look at the two pictures below, it's clear that v66 was able to display the background, the menu and the notifications as well as the window borders, and unable to display the content of the windows, "just" because there was a mismatch between the "display port" size and the "window" size. Lines are wrapped because the available pixel size doesn't match the used pixel size. Later versions of the code have the same problem for all what worked in v66 that is, not only the parts inside the windows, but also the background and borders of all the graphical objects.

  Nice, official UT support. Anyone knows if this is indeed using Halium9 as previously indicated? Might this open easy porting to other recent Gigaset mobiles with similar hardware?
