If you want or need an OS which can execute android apps then android, android-like or sailfishos are the right ways to go.

For now and for the visible future, UBports UT is (very) usefull for people who don't care about android apps.

@wdehoog i'd love to develop stuff for ubports, but my skills not good enough. Also i have not so much free time at the moment to lern something 😞

Thanks for the link, i will take a look on the code.

I have solved this, in case anyone hits the same brick wall:

In the .pro file, the one selected in my screenshot, I needed to specify that it should install those aditional files.
In my case I mentioned that it should install the DISTFILES, like the following:
0_1510479061414_Captură de ecran din 2017-11-12 11-27-02.png
DISTFILES +=
weathericons-regular-webfont.ttf
Ubuntu-C.ttf
fontawesome.ttf

#set the path where to install distfiles aswell as adding which files to be added
dist_files.path = /Cumulus
dist_files.files += $${DISTFILES}

#you can see that at the the end I've mentioned that dist_files should be installed aswell
INSTALLS+=config_files qml_files desktop_file dist_files

Might seem dumb of me for not knowing, that the files should be manually set to install, but I haven't used it before since for Android Qt Creator does that for me because it has a special directory where I need to add the aditional files.
And on desktop I manually copied the files in the build directories without thinking I can tell qmake which files should also be deployed.
So in case any other has this issue might help them out.

In the official documentation there are really beautiful mockups, it would be nice to recover some of these WIP stuff from canonical. I wonder if that could be possible

@Einstein212 Good to know, good luck!

@GIEMME magic 😉

the default folder could be determined by a configuration file

@zlamalp said in How to run non-clickable app on a phone for development:

To answer to myself :-).

I guess I meant calendar-app and not address-book-app. For address-book-app I can see there is a snap config and also click package config. Click package can be build, but is with "ubuntu-sdk-14.10-qml-dev2" in config, which doesn't even install on 15.04 phone. If I change it to version from calendar-app, it install and crash on a start with no logs (or where they are?).

See whether there are any log files WHILE it is running. I've had it once that logs got removed before I had a change to look at 😛

try something like:

while : ; do cp application-howevertheselogfilesarecalled-calendar-app*.log my.log ; done

Now I had the chance to try again.
I am right now on a Mac and the client is still a bit buggy. But after understanding when it crashes one can easily avoid it.

The call quality is okay. First of all the voice is clear without any garble but it is not insync with the video. The quality of the video is mediocre. As if you are on a low bandwith. All in all thorught an half an hour session stable.

I downloaded it, but you can not open the torrent files

i don't enable the developer mode... sorry for this stupid question...

now it works, i can see hello world on my phone

Keep up the good work.

Few bugs I spotted.

Bug 1 If you type a message in the press enter it sticks the last word on the next line which you have to delete

Bug 2 If you input an emoji you have to exit the conversation then reenter it. The emojji will then be on the ext line for you to press enter
