  Nice, official UT support. Anyone knows if this is indeed using Halium9 as previously indicated? Might this open easy porting to other recent Gigaset mobiles with similar hardware?

  I ran UT on grouper way back in the day. It performed acceptably, until the switch was made away from surfaceflinger for the display manager. Then it became really crashy. Not long after that it was abandoned as a target platform. Based on that I imagine that even if you could find any old images, the device would not be very useful running that. For one, you wouldn't be able to find any other software to install on it. Lots of applications in the OpenStore would not even run on that version of the OS since it would contain old, or even have missing libraries.

  @Aurze Hi, I made the client for domoticz, I chose it after some tests and it fit my needs. About the protocol, I use ZWave, not open sourced, but there are opensource controllers. I chose ZWave because of the wide ecosystem of sensors and actors and because I needed a wireless meshed network. I like Fibaro's design and products in general but I tried several brands for light bulbs. Regarding the price tag, in Europe you can find various ZWave sensors around 30€ (seems to be the minimum price so it should cover the ZWave licence) I'm interested in your findings as I would like to have a more open domotic universe at home. If you use domoticz, I would love some feedback to improve the UX. (I'm working on adding local caching and customization but it's not ready yet)

  @Flohack said in Looking for a BQ E4.5: And maybe the one form Volla This is an Android device though. @Flohack said in Looking for a BQ E4.5: Google project Fuchsia, they might want to get rid of the Linux kernel (and with that also get rid of us ;)). So Android-based devices might be a dead-end road in a few years. This is pure wild speculation and doesn't help anyone. There's also no reason that eventually Mir and friends couldn't work on top of Fuchsia kernel, if the effort was made to write a backend for it.

  I have H2O Wireless (uses AT&T Network) with a SIM card and get unlimited data on my Nexus 5. I pay $28 (Twenty-Eight) a month with no contract for free long distance, unlimited text, etc. I get faster speeds for a certain amount of GBytes then the slower speeds later, but it is all free. I turn on my Nexus 5 hotspot and get internet on my Mac at 72.2 Mbps. H2O said it's okay to do that. I tried on my iPhone awhile back, but would have had to jailbreak it they said. My Nexus 5 is my full time everyday phone and I like it better especially for the cheap internet. I'm not going back to iPhone. My next computer might be FreeBSD, too. Sorry Apple.

  I was able to get Private Internet Access (PIA) working and am satisfied with it. I used the ISP checker and am secure.

  The matrix bridges are rather stable, actually. The IRC bridge is handled by TeleIRC, which seems to have taken its last breath. Matterbridge is not out of the question, but we need to sit down and set it up right if we're going to do it. That's the main problem.
