    @twinkybot The story with HP and the Intel Management Engine? Its a problem of Intel, you can virtually control every server in the business segment remotely, and with smal mistakes in this firmware also exploit it. Why these featuresa re turned on by default, and cannot be turned off? And why do they produce batches for the US government that dont have them turned off? Guess BR

    @Flohack Thanks for your answer That's what I had heard from Marius before and recently about the difficulty of getting developers to get involved given the lack of technical documentation and as a result of the heavy investment in time before they could start contributing code. I hope that a solution will be found. I am sorry for not being of any help in this regard.

    On a sidenote, we indeed haven't done our best yet to provide all the information about our needs for UX. The website is currently going to be refreshed, so we'd ask you to stay tuned for further updates As you all properly pointed out, one of first goals is to provide consistency. Or, at an higher level, coherence. At the moment we're approaching a transition from Ubuntu Vivid to Xenial, and we will be tied to a different toolkit (QtQuick Controls 2, shortly QQC2[1]). Our effort is to port the Suru design to QQC2; in this regard, we're creating a new style for the components. Here's a very early video, the style is based on Vanilla Design[2]. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ahCT7yqr08&feature=youtu.be With the new toolkit, which offers less control on how components behave, and all the features that convergence brings, including the ability to run apps that hasn't been designed for Ubuntu Touch, we can expect some obstacle in fully implement the current set of specifications. Our hope is that it could turn in an opportunity to refresh our Suru specifications. The full documentation for the current Suru design is not available or, in some parts, outdated (mid-2013, when Suru was still using those odd gradients). The same documentation available on docs.ubuntu.com has never been completed during the last four years. In the meantime, we have seen the raise of new UX trends, one of the controversial components (the bottom navigation) has been officially adopted by the Material guidelines, and Canonical decided to drop its Ayatana project (i.e. Unity 7) and adopt the GNOME 3 HIG. What we need is help and guidance through these multiple inputs, in order to fix some of the current issues in usability, and eventually validate the design of new UI components. In a longer term, we might want to support an effort to revisit the current design guidelines. I saw you've been interested by the recent changes in clock-app. Feel free to open a new issue, or join existing discussions at: https://github.com/ubports/clock-app/issues Thank you again! ====== [1] https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquickcontrols2-index.html [2] https://github.com/ubuntudesign/vanilla-design

    When I flushed mine I had no luck with the magic device tool, but in saying that it did work nice and sweet with my E5. I also had no luck with the UBPorts installer. So in the end I gave installing from the server and that worked sweet as a nut. No issues what so ever this way and worked first time. Personally I would only use this method again if I was to do my other two M10''s. Yes it is a bit old now but for me it still does what I want it to and works great with UBPORTS. Have you had a look on ebay to see if you can get one slightly cheager?

    Ok, found it out, was indeed an R not an A, that really is some poor font there. The problem was solved by booting back into the original image and enabling "non OEM" images in the developer mode settings which you only see after tabbing 7 times onto the os version number somewhere in the settings (seriously, wtf). Now I can successfully flash my own images on it. Thanks for pointing me into the right direction

    Hi e.g. Calibre is doing the same with the heart symbol. I belive there are many more applications out there. But for me an essential part why I am also funding this UBports is the hope of an secure and non-spy software. And this is only possible with Free Software at least where you can read the source code. But I'd go even for re-usable code (as this needs to be read and understood to use it therefore less hidden parts, imo) I believe Donations do work as wen can see for Matrix, UBPorts and others. Yes many are strugling but I believe this might also change if people understand the value of free software. I think that an OpenStore should be open. And as for programms I stronlgy believe that one should be able to re-use, change the code and make a living out of it without being harrased by people who have lawyers at their hands or something happening on my computer without me knowing. I love GNU licenses for their viral attitude

    @twinkybot IMHO, If the ethical reasons are first for you, points 1. and 2. of my first post, then the choice of Liberapay should prevail. Similarly, if economic rationality, point 3. and 4. predominates and the euro costs you less. We can hope that there will be visibility for donations via Liberapay in a future, if my request to promote this system in the same way as others is taken into account. In other cases, it may make sense to use other means of giving.

    @Locamama said in UBports Community Update 17 | November 25, 2017: Pensez-vous que Ubports peut fusionner la micro SD avec le stockage interne de la M10? ....................................................................................... Do you think Ubports can merge the micro SD with the internal storage of the M10? La réponse est : non, cette fonctionalité n'est pas disponible avec UT. Beaucoup de travail serait probablement nécessaire pour un résultat incertain compte tenu des versions anciennes de kernel utilisées dans les versions d'android sous-jacentes à UT. ....................................................................................... The answer is: no, this feature is not available with UT. A lot of work would probably be needed for an uncertain result given the old kernel versions used in android versions underlying UT .

    @contraire I have been using Luks encrypted partitions on Ubuntu Touch for a few years and there are some notes on this here, I've just got a OpenPlus One (I did have a 8GB Nexus 4) and now I have space to setup a encrypted Debian Stretch chroot so I'm having a play with that...
