@Pulsar33 said in How do I copy files to and from my phone & PC with uFTP & WifiTransfer?: @Opolork : Hello WifiTransfer : acts like a server => use Filezilla on the laptop the Filezilla UI allows multiple selection of files and folders and make things easy I experienced "silent errors" of transfer, often for a bunch of photos which is easy to detect => you always must verify the integrity of what you have transfered uFtp : acts like a client => use Filezilla Server on the laptop I never succeeded to transfer a folder or multiple files from Laptop to Phone I never experiment "silent errors" uFtp makes a temporary copy of all what you send in his folder. This is a huge drawback ! Confinement : WifiTransfer and uFtp are confined as usual so they can only access to the .local/share/<appname>/ folder. The only choice is to use UT file manager and enable show hidden files and full access. Using Terminal, you can create symbolic links for easier access : ln -s ~/.local/share/wifitransfer.sil/ ~/Ftp ln -s ~/.local/share/ftpmanager.costa/ ~/uFtp Firewall : Depends on your PC OS and configuration ... Might be necessary to modify. Hope this helps Pulsar33 Cheers, pulsar33. That was very informative.

@AppLee Thanks again. I will try convincing some of my friends to install Telegram. I'll see how it goes. Cheers!

@Giiba Thank you.

If you dd from sdcard to emmc keep your size below 14.5g or your emmc will not boot, don't ask how i know this. Or label your sdcards , and know what is on them. Its easier to adjust the size with gparted or similar before you “ dd ” it.

@Lakotaubp works for me too...

@advocatux said in What formats are supported for video?: @Giiba have you tried to play videos with UTMedia (https://open-store.io/app/utmedia.nfsprodriver)? There are some issues with the default media player on Nexus 5 but UTMedia works for me. @advocatux This solution works for me too. (Playing regular videos with H264 - MPEG-4 AVC codec). I run Ubuntu Touch on RC on Nexus 5.

@dobey said in Indicator pull down regression on new Unity8 (rc/ver. 64): For the second question, it would be in the unity8 repo, and in the Panel.qml iirc. Panel.qml is the correct spot. I've poked around with the old unity, and it should just be a matter of properly defining sizes and anchors. edit: I see where the indicator is defined but am too much of a newbie to know what's wrong. line 350: https://github.com/ubports/unity8/blob/xenial/qml/Panel/Panel.qml

@Luksus Wow, that worked. You are a savior. Thank you.

@Idefix said in root drive full? (some kind of virtual disk?): I want to add a feature, which implies manipulating nftables, unbound, vsftpd and things like that, if they are installed in a container, is there some hope it will function ? You haven't elaborated on what it is you are trying to do. But lots of commandline tools and apps work fine in a Libertine container. Also installing them there carries the added benefit that if you switch channels, your apps remain installed.

sure, there is. => nearby venues [image: pure-maps.jonnius-screenshot-1a051122-8247-406a-bc45-7971f9b42f67.jpg]

@Stefano thank you so much it is a very nice device and amazing OS

To echo what @arubislander said, you'll have to check to see if Anbox works for your device. Here are the detailed instructions: https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/anbox.html I installed Anbox on my OneplusOne phone and so far it seems to fit my usecases. Some apps will work and some won't. You'll have to experiment and see which ones work. If you run into some issues getting apps to work, the following posts might be useful depending on what errors you run into: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3406/starting-anbox-container/5 https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3407/anbox-apps-not-working

@Giiba after a fresh installation with wipe the problem still presist. If no other Nexus 5 is affected by this, it must be an hardware issue of of my specific device. Cheers

I used celas's method above to play back video and it worked on my Nexus 5. Thanks.

Just for the record: Offline Maping is possible with Pure Maps by installing OMS Scout Server.
