@CatWithUT
Thank you for your work it seems very interesting to me!
Just a quick question: do you think it would be feasible to create a .click package and have it in the Openstore? In a similar fashion that uWolf and uFirefox does? Can we avoid libertine containers? Do you think upcoming Mir2.0 will change anything in this regard as it supports Wayland?
Do you use Mobian build scripts for ARM, for signal-desktop? https://github.com/0mniteck/Signal-Desktop-Mobian/releases
And also note: if we can get an initial version to build and make an UT package I'm willing to work on making patches to make the interface responsive as I have done with whatsapp web. I think this is the easy part.
But we should first make a set of scripts to build automatically a binary, and then a click package that can run on UT.
Hi @O.o.
It will certainly help others when they see how far you've come.
The latest in your other thread <Taking the plunge>
about banking apps and others stuff:
@O.o. said in Taking the plunge:
I've been dithering and hesitating to give Ubuntu Touch a spin for months, and the obscene Google monopoly's decision to kill off deGoogled ROMs and open-source repos finally pushed me over the edge.
I've ordered a Fairphone 5, onto which I'll install Ubuntu Touch, and hopefully I will make it my new daily driver. For the things I need that don't exist in the OpenStore, I intend to start developing for Ubuntu Touch.
I suppose it had to happen one day. Google made it today. Wish me luck
Many thanks and Greetings
Mario
But maybe there should be a way to uninstall these apps without the tweak tool? Also apps witch disappear from the store are affected.
This way is not intuitiv and not everybody trusts or knows the tweak tool.
For BQ E5 HD :
Stable channel : simple boot.
I tried the last RC channel (66) and it's party time ! I got dual and even triple boot !
On the other hand, the scrolling of the desk is not very fluid. Is that a known problem ?
@jezreel Both your last two post are related to each other and they are related to your first post here https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3930/ubuntu-touch-image-error Please can you keep everything to do with one issue in one place for reasons I have already mentioned in responding to your other post. It will not get answered any quick in fact it may take longer as there is no context.
Could you please add both these issues to your first post and we can try and solve it with all the available info. You can then delete your other posts or we can do it for. Thanks for your understanding.
Please also don't post lots of related issues as separate posts. It just creates confussion for us, you and others trying to follow things. Could you please add the other one to this and we can keep it all together. You can use the three little dots to the left to edit your post. Thanks.
Aplologies for the inconvenience caused. The issue was indeed a bad update causing the upgrader to clear a directory it should not have. See https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1395
If you are affected by this issue, it is now safe to reinstall Ubuntu Touch using the UBports Installer. You will not lose any data.
@natineo sadly it is an old known problem, and it seems that we didn't find any volonteer to dive into it This bug is logged here : https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/239
Hi!
Worked just fine, just one thing about it: in Step 7 you need
cp /home/phablet/Downloads/nvram-by-skyneel.com/WIFI* .
nvram-by-skyneel.com is missing in your path.
Thanks a lot!
I've made a note of the tedit paths and commands and may try it at a later date. Or anyone else can try and post here if they please.
For now, I prefer the uText method as described in my post here: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3902/how-to-open-a-txt-file-that-i-copy-from-pc-to-fp2-with-ut/12?_=1583692201634
Cheers, friends.
Hi,
I am still playing around with my N5 and I have tested some Android apps with Anbox. Spotify works and I can cast the music via WiFi to my stereo and via Bluetooth to a speaker.
Unfortunately, the ports.ubuntu.com repository is separate from the standard Ubuntu archive, and there are very few, if any, mirrors available that include armhf or arm64 packages. So, you can't really change the repository in this case.
@domubpkm Thanks! But I think it would be wiser to wait a little bit more, than spending money on a new phone (OPO) and then buy another new phone (Pine) after I bought already a new Nexus 5, although my CAT S60 is still kicking...
