    @Alain This featute isn't in UT/Lomiri yet. Simplest way is to make something like a home screen app and there are some that exists already like Launcher Modular. Not sure they have app groups though. You can contribute to them if you don't want to make your own. However, they obviously act like a normal app. Best you can do is pin it to the Launcher for easy access. Or you can contribute to Lomiri and implement it in the App drawer which definitely needs some love There's even a bounty for it so there's money to get

    Hi Zaito, so sorry for delay, I have only just logged on in ages. I tested it on GS5 only - installed UT 24.04 because it was the only way to make phonecalls when 3g packed up. Nothing I did enabled Waydroid to persist. Meaning that if waydroid was closed for any reason, you couldn't reboot it without a completely fresh installation. This rectified in June with a new UT update. Everything works well in both UT and Waydroid with one exception; there is no clipboard on waydroid. Which means you cannot copy or paste anything in any circumstances. If I need waydroid copy facilities I have to use another phone running UT20.04. Hope all is well.

    Thanks advocatux, that explains it. I was hoping to find a way of seeing the amount of used/free space on the card. Following your reply I discovered the command 'df -h' online which typed into terminal produced the desired result.

    @tartanspartan I don't remember it well now but I think Keeweb can generate passwords. Also KeePit is alive again, so maybe @dannygb can add that function if it doesn't already. I have a terrible headache today so I'm sorry for this half-baked info I'm telling you

    Well from that link @UniSuperBox shared it looks like the Ubuntu/Mozilla devs for ARMHF hardware are at last aware of the issue and working on it for those architectures.

    Worked kind of. Its important that you first create a folder in the user-data/xenial folder I named it SDCARD and then the mount command is: sudo mount -B /media/phablet/ED34-76D7/ ~/.local/share/libertine-container/user-data/xenial/SDCARD Now i can access the data from libertine apps

    Thank you for your reply. I was just curious, because the initial key exchange with a friend was not flawless, it needed to be restarted a second time, and also some acknowledgements of delivered messages failed. Anyway thanks again.

    I think its not a problem of sources but of having no one that is maintaining this app, unfortunately.

    My FP2 is also getting very hot above the battery (right of the camera), but I thought it comes from watching videos, for example on youtube. Not shure what module lies there It also drains the battery a lot, but I don't think it's empty as fast as yours. Perhaps its just a browser issue with html5 players... but since my FP2 can't play back video files from "disk" I cannot confirm my guess. Edit: After clearing my gstreamer cache (https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/661#issuecomment-401391699) I could confirm, that my FP2 is overheating on html5 playback. I played the same video with UTmedia app (html5 player) and with native media player: html5: gets very hot, nearly untouchable native: gets warm So for me, I suggest it has something to do with hardware acceleration not working for html5. Otherwise, if @Danceswithcats did not play back any media in the browser, this could be a general issue in the webapp(-container). btw: I'm on 15.04 ota3.

  • Will USB microphone work (on Fairphone 2)? And: battery usage?

    While the Fairphone has USB OTG support, its not clear what will happen if you connect it: The mic might not be able to talk with the device if it is not also USB-OTG capable The microphone might be recognized, but then the sound routing will ignore it. It could work for the Ubuntu part, but probably you cannot use it for calls (Android part). BR
