  From Community Update 15: People have been asking about the KRACK and BlueBorne vulnerabilities lately, and for good reason. These are highly public explots. Both have been fixed in the RC and Devel channels, with the fixes landing in Stable with the next OTA. Yay! Marking this thread as solved.

  Compatability has to be in the core in some form. To me theres no realistic way without compatability. I gave up on my ubuntu mx4 and now use the mx meizu flyme android because of............the money. Not linux/Android/freedom, like/dislike discussions, but simply because I would have to have two phones: To operate with my banking, reading danish newspapers, see danish television, use the danish mobilePay, use the phone with online ticketing for bus/train - a lot of stuff that has nothing to do with "hobbyist" fiddling with philosophical linux/windows/android speculations but all to do with very everyday digitalizations of very soon everything in daily life. And all those local institutions in all countries are NOT going to create linux compatible versions of their apps. But they are going to be even more necessary to have access to. That leaves the discussions with no choice - if the UBport is going to be anything else than a utopian/idealistic project, it will have to cooperate with a lot of android apps.

  Only yesterday I visited the Ubuntu Store and downloaded a few apps. One I find great is the facebook app in there. It is so much better than the face book basic option in the Open Store. We really need to get all the apps in the Ubuntu Store over to the Open Store.

  @altr0n I managed to get my own kernel compiled, the issue was that I did not have a console argument specified that I needed (I founded it on another post here) console=tty0 Needed to be added to my kernel command line args. Hope this is useful to someone in the future!

  Thank you to everyone who has submitted feedback in this topic. I've just run through it and noted almost all of the possible (AKA: would not require a UX redesign or other major overhauls) enhancements we could make to the OS. This was partially so that I had something to calm me down after the day, partially because I wanted to try my new note-scanner app on my freedom-hating phone. As you can see, Bluetooth got the most mentions in this thread, closely followed by adding the cursor movement in the on-screen keyboard. Let's see what we can do to get that rolling. Please excuse my manuscript.

  @sverzegnassi , one problem i have after trying this development version of the file manager is that both *.mp4 and *.MOV files are played back heavily in pink color after installing it, and the problem does not go away when i uninstalling it either. I posted about it here as well, https://forums.ubports.com/topic/600/cannot-play-the-old-mov-made-by-the-canonical-image/4 , but did not get any suggestions on how to fix it. Do you have any ideas what went wrong and how to fix it?

  @Galaxia said in Daily usable ?: The only thing not working consistently is mobile data on ATT network. Once the phones manages to establish a mobile data connection it works great, but as soon as the phone stops using data, the connection silently drops. I have to toggle Cellular data on/off a bunch of times to get it working again. Weird. I'm on AT&T (well, Red Pocket, AT&T network) and I believe I've seen what you're seeing, but only rarely--under the hood it appears to be an issue with the default network metric. But I can go for days jumping to cell and back to wifi at various locations without seeing it, whereas it sounds like it's biting you every time.

  @Math Hello, we did not yet commit anything to the stable updates. Probably it will be done with a configuration option, but not decided yet. BR

  Ok, dug through the source to obports-installer, looks like most of the goodies hang off of: https://system-image.ubports.com In particular: https://system-image.ubports.com/ubports-touch/16.04/devel/hammerhead/index.json which tells you where to get bits for various versions. The latest, currently 72, says that there's bits at : /pool/device-e34756d822387fa9371568fa42292f8baf76d79ec7f2cee0f5c002b909dc08f5.delta-device-cc610cfc131187e182588a0f9c7c5c23ba769679708a4ba08b16878f4e93c101.tar.xz which, once you pull it and "xzcat device-e3* | tar -xvf -" will give you boot, recovery, and system img files. I booted just to the bootloader and fastboot flash'ed those partitions, and my phone still boots OK. So I guess I'm at least sorta on the right track....

  Hmmm its quite funny that our nexus 5 is a bluetooth speaker for other phones xd. But ive have send a file. Just turn off on other phone music streamming to your nexus, an then use program, bluetooth file transfer. In this way i could send files to other phone. Not tested it in back way, i mean send file to nexus 5. U can do this and inform us :D. It should work, you can read this feature in app.

  @grepo I thought I'd installed UBPorts using the magic-device-tool method - but if I see OS build number: OTA-15, does that mean it didn't work? I'm also using a BQ E4.5 EDIT: I used the system-image server method and it has now installed correctly. The magic-device-tool doesn't seem to work properly?

  If you go to Github.com you can create an account there and then go to issues and raise another. When creating it gives you the option to ađdo issue or new feature.

  Same here for both my M10 and E5. I did however have to go into settings and manually force the download, even though I had download update to do automatically on wi-fi.
