    @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.

    @minkiu said in Is it possible to flash from TWRP (with .zip file)?: While I managed to get adb working, once it boots into fastboot it just won't detect it I had something similar on opensuse with the AppImage installer (would affect deb as well AFAIK). And the cause there was that I had adb and fastboot in /usr/local/bin. But when run with sudo (explicitly starting the installer with sudo or letting the installer use sudo internally), /usr/local/bin is not in the $PATH. And the command to detect if the phone is in fastboot mode ignores the custom paths you can specify so that doesn't help either. So it might be worth a try to either place/softlink adb and fastboot in /usr/bin or adjust your system-wide sudo config to also include /usr/local/bin (or wherever you have installed adb/fastboot).

    I'm replying to myself here to stay within the confines of this topic - but I've been beating my head against the wall on this one... Basically, my ongoing issue with convergence on the Meizu Pro 5 (on 16.04/devel) is the "fuzzy" resolution using aethercast - and I know that it's purely down to the resolution being set in aethercast/src/ac/basesourcemediamanager.cpp to 720p and not 1080p. I scavenged an old laptop today, installed Ubuntu on it (I'm an Arch Linux user by default) and was trying to cross-compile a UBports xenial version of aethercast to upgrade the output resolution to 1080, as per this patch: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/267505693/p1.diff However, try as I might, I can't past these errors during cross-compiling: Get:1 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial InRelease [247 kB] Err:1 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial InRelease The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5 NO_PUBKEY 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32 I've tried importing those keys - goodness me, I have - but to no avail. So, in a big shout out to @mardy (who is maintaining ubports/aethercast), is there any chance that you might be able to add these three lines to the code and recompile in the near future? The patch worked wonderfully on 15.04 and I briefly (before moving to 16.04/devel) had a crystal clear 1920x1080 UT desktop on my external monitor. Or is there an excellent reason that the 1080 isn't included by default? It seems a little odd, as almost all external monitors are at least 1920x1080 now - as I mentioned before, I had to trawl through our department's old IT storeroom to find a ten-year old monitor with a native 720p resolution - which is seemingly the only way to have crystal clear resolution using aethercast in 16.04/devel! I really appreciate that @mardy does so much for the community already - and I know that there's likely so many more important issues to deal with - but it seems a simple change to the code and would make for a wonderful early Christmas present. Or a late Thanksgiving one for any North Americans on the site

    It seems, that UBports is a diva It seems, that the installation has been successfull, after I hold my FP2 in the hand and watched "her" installing. [image: 1543074408861-20181124_164233-resized.jpg]

    @ellypsis yes, as only a few repos have been moved for now, I suppose the people doing the move are still thinking about the best way to communicate it. On the other hand, in the main page of every repo moved there's a warning. You can see an example of that at https://github.com/ubports/music-app ("Moved to GitLab https://gitlab.com/ubports/app-dev/mu…")

    @lakotaubp @Marathon2422 thanks for your help. This morning, I tried several things like selected a provider in the APN settings, and then the phone was able to connect to a network. So now it works well! Very cool! Last think: it cannot receive mms without data on, which is also the case with my BQ E5. It worked with the Firefox OS and previously with Ubuntu Touch at the really beginning. Do you know why? With 50Mo per month, I use to let the data off, but in this case, I don't know if someone send to me a mms, no notification, nothing, nada...

    @totalsonic said in New browser excessively zoomed-in: My own website http://www.totalsonic.net is zoomed in slightly too much with Morph - but it displays correctly sized in Android (in both mobile versions of Chrome and Firefox) and in the old UT Oxide based browser. Can you add your experience to github issue, please? If for some reason you can't, notice me, I will add it myself. Thank you.

    Some caveats about this, quoting from the UBOF Telegram group: Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:47] [In reply to myii] thats the old one that wraps here Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:48] "here maps" Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:50] [In reply to myii] that has been removed, since here requre licensing Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:52] we are hopefully moving away from ubuntu location service and just use geoclue and qtlocation, and use the hybris platform myii, [20.11.18 21:52] Is it OK to use espoo in the meantime? Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:52] [In reply to myii] yeah should be ok Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:53] [In reply to myii] that will just use gps though, no agps support Key points: espoo uses HERE Maps, which requires licensing Lacks AGPS

    OK. I'm not sure why a python3 version of pygame isn't available in the Ubuntu repositories, so it looks like you will probably need to build your own version to work with python3, as part of the click packaging. You might want to check out clickable for making it easy to package an app up.

    So, after I dug out my old netbook from the dust of my stash shelf, which was already equipped with lubuntu 14.04, I successfully installed ubuntu-device-flash utility via apt package manager, and used the utility to downgrade to 15.04. Wish, this can be this easy on bionic (18.04). I will look into the ubuntu-device-flash utility on ubports github and try to make it work.

    @zx81 that issue happens when changing any channel, so just close & open again System Settings when it happens, at least for now
