@moem Speak a little quietly on the Youtube Viedo Thanks for the Video and good Luck for 2022.

Thank you that is a clear statement VoLte possibly in 12 months. So I won't have to ask that question anymore. I think Ubuntu Touch will work much better with Ubuntu 20-04 as a substructure. I understand that this will be a Mahmut project for the developers. Good luck guys, you can do it already

@cibersheep Ok, thanks CS.

@kristatos Just here everything is always done 10 years later

@trwidick said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: Do you want facebook messenger built in to the os like most android phones? HELL NO!!! :pouting_face: @dobey said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: I don't know if the ffmpeg stuff does hardware decoding on PCs or not, but I think probably it doesn't either. FFMPEG supports Hardware Decoding for about 10+ years now! That's what Kodi/XBMC uses and the moment FFMPEG got Hardware Decoding the VLC Player got it too! @bigmouth said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: @trwidick Wish: Enhanced start menue I'd like to be able to create directories to sort my apps. Also I wonder if widgets were possible, e. g. the clock app to show current time at the desktop and the weather app its information, too. Widgets are the garbage of Android and Windows systems and have no use on Ubuntu Touch since you can easily scroll through your opened apps But Folders would be nice for sure, however please keep in mind you simply might have too many apps installed and many of them are easily replaceable by your browser! @keneda said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: I don't know where do you live but in France SMS/MMS are unlimited and free of charge with any contrat... And i think it's the same in quite all countries in Europe, so yes, MMS is commonly used. In The Netherlands MMS was basically EOL before it was introduced! I am really surprised to see soo many requests for MMS Support Oh and MMS works with any smartphone, no need for the same "messenger" app installed in both sending and receiving phone, it's GAFAM and third part app free. Dunno man... I really REALLY like Telegram : It works on all my devices and syncs all Chat's completely unlike all of their competitors! ** Di sound on my Android phone ** Open Telegram on my Linux Laptop and read the message! Or my Windows Gaming PC Or any of my Ubuntu Touch devices ofcourse!!! :grinning_squinting_face: 100% AWESOME!!! @trwidick said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: @keneda A agree this can be very Important. I use youtube at work everyday. No better way to find a teardown of a laptop that needs a new motherboard or jack replaced. I wish i could code our problems away, but i do not code. The pixel 3a i think has hardware encoding, youtube works quite well, with out buffering, or skipping frames I might be wrong tho. Encoding is not the same as Decoding and we need Decoding via Hardware Acceleration in this case! As much as I hate YouTube the last 5 years or so : We really need it inside TELEports for example! Or perhaps VLC for Ubuntu Touch in the future ?! @dobey said in Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns: @keneda Well, yes, GPU is used in Linux by browsers too, at least for rendering acceleration. Using hardware decoding if available, in Linux, has always been trickier because it's not something drivers tend to provide, for example, and AFAIK GStreamer and other things don't have decent detection or handling of such things. That is sadly VERY TRUE : Hardware Acceleration and Decoding of video's in Firefox for example is only available for about 1 year now! And with all the new stuff going on with V4L2 it continues to be a ongoing drama story... See : https://duckduckgo.com/?q=libreelec+nvidia+gpu+v4l2 My personal dream is simply to have this : https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1603110770/ysxni2y7ulluzwlnw3fl.jpg Ubuntu Touch with Convergence On any phone, for any phone! And the ability to simply use Desktop Software in Convergence mode! All phones should have had a hardware keyboard and a stylus pen for a very long time now! But some fruit brand guy decided to ruin all that and now we are stuck with onscreen keyboards which are not suitable for our huge fingers! :pouting_face:

@lakotaubp That's funny on my Pc and Ubuntu Touch device it's not. Only on my Android system only when I call up this post. That's weird, was I hacked?

@cibersheep Thanks for the info...

@keneda I had just posted the battery tests there and I hope that he would be kind enough to create a data on/off script if it is even possible. 4G data on: [image: 1638308497040-badtest.jpg] 2G data on: [image: 1638308517315-2gbatest.jpg] 4G data off: [image: 1638308537118-batest.jpg]

@vandys said in Back using Touch on my Nexus 5 after long absence: Hello, fellow ubports enthusiasts. I was away (from the forum, and from using ubports) for quite a while. Refreshed my Nexus 5, and wow! This OS is smooth, attractive, and the Morph browser is handling all of my different web sites quite handily. I see so many articles on what doesn't work. I just thought a big picture perspective on the tremendous successes of this project was appropriate. Thanks, team! I did the same basically, except I run a Pixel 3a, Was hoping my Pixel 5 would run UT as its a well equipped device.

I noticed quite a lot of progress made with porting the Lenovo X606 tablet. I currently have a Volla phone daily driver and have a de-googled Lenovo X606-F Tablet for general web surfing, hoping to install UT when waydroid is very usable. Its currently my only remaining android device and there are a few android apps I rely on so waydroid is a big factor in when I switch. I'd definitely love to switch to UT at some point. I bought the Lenovo X606F new in last years black Friday sales for 150 GBP and have been very pleased with the quality, especially the very clear screen and battery life. They seem to typically sell for around 200 GBP new . This is not a request for more progress on the Lenovo X606F or waydroid. I greatly appreciate the hard work being done. I just thought it was worth saying in my opinion it would be great value-for-money choice as a UT tablet and I believe the porting is fairly complete so this could be a great way forward once it has installer support.

Neither does my Nexus 5 on Stable channel, yet text notifications work. I guess it is inherent in the messaging application.

@alaraajavamma said in Adding Nextcloud to accounts in settings: As far as I know the best option is to download GhostCloud from the Openstore. And I suggest to download Ubsync also Thanks

Hi @mw4jet Bluetooth is a bit rough around the edges. For some devices it might work fine, for others not so much. The user experience seems to vary depending on the phone used and the BT device connected to it... Hopefully the move to 20.04 will bring a newer version of bluez and a better support of devices...

@applee Darkmode is also an a11y feature, I don't use it myself because it messes with my eyes, but there are people that can't use lightmode applications. Especially true when looking at the screenshot with "For everyone" header

@libremax said in UBports and UT stats: the number of supported devices which jumped by more than 20% this quarter Amazing!

@ghostedoften1986 Thank you. What are you interesting in developing? An app? If so, maybe a good place to start reading is here: https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/index.html
