@Juan-Téllez I have added a translation to your post. If you could please use English in future. We do have a Spanish? group if that's easier https://t.me/UBPorts_ES others can be found here https://ubports.com/meet-the-community

thanks a lot.

@Yuri It is definitely not cross-platform. It is a browser for Android only.

@nebulom Shhhh, don't wake the mods! In one's original post there is a box called "Topic Tools" with drop down menu. I think the idea is to mark post as a question when posting first time, then solved or whatever.

This is a very mysterious blocking problem !

@Emphrath OTA-13 bring some core refactors to help halium 7.1 ports. Each device still has to be ported on Halium 7.1 instead of 5.1. The port for the FP2 exists but isn't the official one yet.

@nexus5 Think that Ubuntu Touch is a project to participate in, not a product to buy from. Opinions and wishes are ok but we need people to help. So, this looks something you are interested in and know about. Maybe a perfect project to start with

Thank you @doniks and @kugiigi for caring my topic. This seem be my special use case, or people using this mode to be a HUD device in car. With Iphone, there is a jaibreak tweak for this option called "Heads Up Display Mode" in Cydia. My purpose is to pratice getting used to mirror texts when using computer and phone. I 'm a left-hander and I have a kind of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder that I have to write by left hand. I belive that is the way people rebalance both hand and both halfs of body (in controlling). We all know that the balance of body is very important, in allmost kind of physical sport activities. I don't know how to make it flip mirror screen permanently in android rom, so I find some other os, that closer to pure linux. But I found that all of them was base on Wayland, not X system. And document about Wayland seem not popular and easy enough for me to program st for that. If I fail in android devices, maybe the simplest way is get a Iphone. However, I don't like Iphone much!

@arubislander said in DistroWatch Poll: Do you own a Linux-powered phone? - UBports is a choice.: Just tried it on Android device in Chrome. Was not really adapted to mobile. That's a pity.

That thread is full of FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) over an incident from 2015 when there was an integration (now removed, in a desktop environment that is no longer used) that would allow you to search amazon store from your desktop. Ubuntu is just as trustworthy as any other major linux distro.

@t3kg33k said in Nexus 7 2013 (16GB) install: Update: That clued me in. So, this time I ran the UBports Installer AppImage as sudo and it looks to have been successful this time. Thanks for the assist. Ha. Interesting. I did not expect that. And actually, I do not understand it, but hey. Glad it worked!

Yes, it really seems like an excellent navigation app. I mostly use OSMand on my Android phone, but Puremaps has me seriously thinking about making an in car Ubuntu Touch based entertainment/navigation system. I think the swipe based input navigation might also works better for such a system, although ultimately I really need physical buttons and not only a touch-screen.

@marius-ciclistu This is not an issue tracker. Please comment on issues filed on GitHub, and do not take over other threads on this forum to talk about the issues you might find on your device. The topic of this thread isn't about what issues people have with UT on their devices.

@AppLee thanks for the helpful information..

@C0n57an71n What do you mean code? If you mean the keyboard, it's here

Sorry, I couldn't let it go... this is what I found out... It took me 15 minutes including writing this reply. Let's find all files in /usr that contains case insensitive word "launcher" $ find /usr/ -iname '*launcher*' /usr/bin/cautious-launcher /usr/bin/unity-webapps-qml-launcher /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ubuntu-system-settings/private/Ubuntu/SystemSettings/Launcher /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ubuntu-system-settings/private/Ubuntu/SystemSettings/Launcher/libUbuntuLauncherPanel.so /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ubuntu-system-settings/liblauncher-plugin.so /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/unity8/qml/Greeter/Unity/Launcher /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/unity8/qml/Greeter/Unity/Launcher/libUnityLauncherAS-qml.so /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/unity8/qml/Unity/Launcher /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/unity8/qml/Unity/Launcher/libUnityLauncher-qml.so /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libertine/launcher /usr/share/ubuntu/settings/system/launcher.settings /usr/share/ubuntu/settings/system/qml-plugins/reset/ResetLauncherHome.qml /usr/share/ubuntu/settings/system/qml-plugins/launcher /usr/share/unity/themes/launcher_background_middle.png /usr/share/unity/themes/launcher_background_top.png /usr/share/unity/themes/launcher_background_bottom.png /usr/share/unity/themes/launcher_reflection.png /usr/share/applications/unitywebappsqmllauncher.desktop /usr/share/unity8/Launcher /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/LauncherDelegate.qml /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/FoldingLauncherDelegate.qml /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/FoldingLauncherDelegate.qmlc /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qmlc /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/LauncherPanel.qmlc /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/LauncherPanel.qml /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/LauncherDelegate.qmlc /usr/share/icons/suru/apps/scalable/preferences-desktop-launcher-symbolic.svg Hmm... the /usr/share/unity8/Launcher folder looks promising... After reading, what's in the /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml, there is a parameter that looks promising: 28 29 property bool autohideEnabled: false 30 property bool lockedVisible: false I mean the autohideEnabled... Let's see, where it's used... $ grep -nr autohideEnabled /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/ /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml:29: property bool autohideEnabled: false /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml:411: if (root.autohideEnabled && !root.lockedVisible) { /usr/share/unity8/Launcher/Launcher.qml:607: autohideEnabled: true Only in three positions... maybe if it was always true, the launcher would stay hidden... try to edit the line 29 (you'll need to remount the / as rw) and restart unity8 via UbuntuTouchTweakTool... ... This is all the effort I'm willing to invest into this thread for now. Maybe it will help. Happy hacking. EDIT: maybe the autohideEnabled is not he way to go, maybe it does someting else, I haven't tried...

OK, thanks!
