    Axolotl - All messages & contacts gone after "Your registration is faulty. Please consider to register again."

    @gt I did some experimentation how to get my old messages and contacts back. Here is the solution, which works (with a little draw-back): I used the new re-registered Axolotl profile (all files in .config/textsecure.nanuc and .local/share/textsecure.nanuc) as basis. Then I replaced the database db.sql file with the old db.sql from my December back-up. (Apparently, Axolotl deletes all old messages from the db.sql after re-registration. On the other hand, attachments remain in the profile). Then I copied the contacts.yml from the back-up to the config folder of the new profile. This works fine, I see all my messages and all contacts. The only draw-back is that I can only write a message to a contact AFTER this contact has written a new message to me. Apparently, the other person has to re-initiate the secure connection. I can live with this draw-back, as it is a matter of time that all (relevant) contacts will be working again.

    @applee Maybe the upcoming Halium 7.1 port for Nexus 5, FP2, etc..., will improve somehow the Bluetooth reliabilty, but there's no guarantee that it will solve the whole BT issues.

    @michaelnino I think the problem was more that it is not possible for a customer to flash the IMEI back again. This is a regulatory constraint to avoid stolen phone to change IMEI easily. Of course some thiefs have access to tools to change it but it's harder then just downloading a simple software...

    @cliffcoggin If you know a way to open a file with an app using a terminal command, you can use launcher modular from open store to create a shortcut for it on its app launcher.

    Hi and welcome @ben-pittman Unfortunately this feature does not exist yet. And the roadmap being what it is a long one, this could take a while until it becomes a priority for the foundation. Let's hope someone with the right skillset and will can take this topic and makes a PR.

    Thank you very much for the information potet said in Recharge points for electric cars: @ricardo65 Not sure if it's what you had in mind, but this functionality already exists in Pure Maps: Install & open Pure Maps Settings -> Places nearby Chose radius and select 'EV Charging Station' as type Search using the button in the top right corner Press the button that appears in the top right corner of the results page to see the results marked on the map. Hope thats helpful!

    @z4rc No, Ubuntu Touch itself is not built for running a kiosk mode system. If you want to build a kiosk device there are better solutions for that than trying to use Ubuntu Touch.

    @cliffcoggin Yeah the idea was that Porting is for developer discussions. So yeah, lets move that elsewhere, I still think top level devices would be better than substructure of Support, to make it more visible.
