  @Marathon2422 Yes, most phones shipping to EU and North America have left the factory. Confirmation e-mails are in progress and planned during this week. Delivery is expected within 12 days for EU and within 18 days for North America. [Edit] Still waiting the email, but I don't care as long as I get the phone this month

  @normandc There is a solution which is not a panacea but which can help: there is always the possibility to select and copy elements with a long press, to paste them in a text editor, to work on the parts we are interested in, to copy the result obtained...

  As long as this function is not implemented, also "* -1" would work. Right?

  @ComLarsic I would expect if that does have widevine it is indeed not usable, given it's not from https://www.widevine.com/ Also those are really old builds of chromium (which itself doesn't come with widevine anyway, so that's confusing too). Basically, if it was acceptable to distribute the Widevine plug-in in this manner, then we'd already have it anyway, because Qt/Debian/Ubuntu/etc… would provide it too.

  @ezze I am egaer to merge everything, in fact TELEports lives on Gitlab, and those contributions are merged automatically. However, what you want to actually have is a new release. We are working on this, so I hope it wont take too long. And then the translations will also be updated BR Florian

  I've tried image 117 and it seems to work as well on the Pi 3B+ as 95. It still has many of the same issues (wifi, selection and audio). Rodney helped fix the bug where the swipe tutorial covers the screen but won't disappear (because you can't swipe like on the phones). If you only have a touchscreen and you find your view is getting blocked by the first run tutorial then edit /var/lib/AccountsService/users/phablet so that the line starting DemoEdgesCompleted reads DemoEdgesCompleted=[‘left’, ‘top’, ‘right’, ‘left-long’] You can do this via ssh or (with difficulty) in the terminal squinting through the tutorial screen. If you have an hdmi monitor and connect to that it should open in desktop mode and after that it will be fine in the touchscreen next time it is run. The Super-a Key opens the launcher just like on Gnome.

  Hello Developers! I have two Pixel 1 devices that I can donate to the cause to port Ubports to that device. Any takers? It would be best for you to be in the USA but I may be able to ship Internationally as well. Thanks for your time!
