@Kolp0099 You cannot just request a port it does not work like that. Each phone needs it's own port which takes a lot of dedication and time details here

@Keneda Let's admit that a few bad technocratic decisions are made, it won't change much I think because in the world of foss, I don't speak for UT specifically but all OS, many browsers are in circulation (and perhaps more after that), the sources are mainly free access and everyone is free to put in or remove the packages they want. This is just my reflection as a non-specialist.
And the thing is that I can't see politicians alienating themselves from, for example, Firefox, a secure browser (so far) and very efficient and surely widely used in all aspects of administration. Beware of the perverse effects of bad political decisions.

Above all, it is office apps that are lacking for UT and I wouldn't mind paying a reasonable price for high-performance, reliable and maintained office apps.

I'm afraid all you'll have for your phone is W10.

@arubislander said in Bring devs to UT:

... a fully viable and operational UT.

I think it is dependent on the device manufacturer more than the OS developer, which is why Volla is probably the best bet.

@jeeva said in How install Ubuntu touch on my Lenovo M10 605LC:

but I tried to install

If you device not in device list, you should NOT try to install, unless you are OK with possible problems like bricking...

@Moem
I doubt his phone is 23 years old, there where no smartphone then.

@tekisui
Can you tel exactly what is hammer 2, is this a codename (for instance hammerhead is Nexus 5) ?

@valeriAshten All supported devices are here https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ any that are not need to be ported by someone with the device which is not easy. We have more info here https://t.me/UTFAQ and https://forums.ubports.com/topic/206/will-you-port-to-device-x/1

@alrico I use Lineage on the older tablets, but even that loses support.

@andrew907 Yes, piper has no code for integration into a browser.

@pachof said in hello a question is there any port for the samsung gt-i9082l or gt i9080l, and if there is not then is there someone who wants to make a port of these devices:

hello need a port for the samsung grand duos gt-i9082l or samsung grand gt-i9080l to give a second life to my old phones

Since you are the one who feels the need, and you also own these phones, you would be the perfect candidate to do the job. Please see https://docs.ubports.com/porting

@mark777h You can start by looking at the documentation:
https://docs.ubports.com/porting

@akseli You can check it at https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ in the search field, enter the model of your device and check if it is on the list.

@tiffafk There is currently no easy way to do that on device. You would need to apply post-processing to the images. Search for tools to do this on Linux (preferably via the command line) chances are, those tools might work on UT too.

Having said that: Have you checked what exif data is included by default? Maybe it already omits those things you do not want in it.

@Moem Yes, the term gets confused. Huawei phones have a bootloader that cannot be unlocked. That is why there are so few ROMs and mods on XDA developers.

@Flohack said in PineTime $25 FOSS smart watch:

@Moem I am afraid no one so far did develop any middleware or App for UT to let the PineTime connect to it. Its totally feasable, but would need at least 1 or 2 devs getting their hands dirty.

That's not true: there's uWatch on GitLab. I can't get it to work with the PineTime, tho, but the dev has made it work with the PineTime, so clearly work is being carried out.

@ELITEMini
You can find supported devices here : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

Sadly for you, A30 os not one of those.

@Keneda Yes, thank you! That fixed it. Even after all this elapsed time.

So for those playing at home:
-1 + 1 = 1
-1 + -1 = 0
Simple. ; )

@Moem et al.

Here's how I made the mistake.

It started when I sent this gag to a friend.

Note Android is taking a sharp fall, Unknown is rising, and the dominant Apple dataset is shown purple. Edit: No, it's grey! Just that the purple one stands out more.

Then I came back many hours later (well past my bedtime!) to look at Mobile OSes specifically.

Android falling at the same rate the underdog is rising. Blinded by expectation from the previous chart, I didn't realise that Apple had 'disappeared' from my perception.

Whoops.
