@pparent said in Whatslectron: Whatsapp Web with Electron.: Can you go back to your previous keyboard configuration that did not work well before, then update the app to see if it works better? Now it is perfect! It auto-adjusted itself to the full height of the keyboard! Wow and thank you!

This is odd, but in a good way. I just switched back to 1.x RC to test, and I can report that my Pebbles now work! The oddness is: when it didn't work, RC 1.2 was already out, but apparently I was on RC 1.1 somehow. I don't care very much, I'm just happy to report that it works

Solved by clicking on the kebab menu on the top left and then clicking on the cog on the bottom left. Then click General and tick "Hide menu bar" under System.

The takeaway is that you should not change the DNS server for the mobile internet connection using nmcli.

@lduboeuf no issues on 24.01.2 rc, xperia x

@gpatel-fr Mine is the maximum length of 64 chars for WPA2. It's annoying that the GUI doesn't handle that well but the device will work.

@ma Thanks for your suggestion. Things are working now since downgrading to 24.04.1.x RC. I think the 24.04.2.x version had several things in read-only mode (only guessing from reading the logs that were generated). Even when trying commands as sudo, received similar errors "need root access, read access, etc". Appreciate your input.

today I searched Internet on how to transfer a file from Android, succeeded to send a photo to my UT phone using Bluetooth, it works. Notification is less clear than with Android, there is only a sound, no visual prompt, and it's necessary to open the application, see the prompt in the app, download the file to a folder, then it's finally possible to display it. On the whole the receiving file UX is behind what Android (14 in this case) does and not as simple as transmitting files from UT toward another device. While doing some stuff on the Android phone, I noticed that there was some sound on the UT phone, like if the 'keys' entered on the Android unlock screen had a sound echo on the other phone. Looking at it a bit more, playing a sound on the Android phone is done on the UT phone. If one don't want to turn the UT phone into a speaker, it's a bit disturbing. It's not a problem with the app itself it seems, as when pairing under UT there is no idea of well, rights, it's all or nothing. To compound the problem, the UT phone is turned into a speaker to the point that the hardware controls on the phone have no effect on the sound level - it's entirely controlled from the Android phone. Edit: I tried to play a sound on the UT phone and it played on the UT phone, not the Android. So clearly it's technically possible to accept files without being a speaker, however it does not seem possible on Ubuntu Touch. A quick search of the issues does not bring anything related so either I'm mistaken or no one sees this as a problem.

@k.nacke said in Unlock Bootloader – How To Unlock?: A good strategy is to use RSA to download the firmware file, and save that file. The path is shown in the upper right corner of the UI while the file is downloaded. Either you are fast enough and you can copy the .zip file, or you need to zip the unzip directory yourself. Ok, I've downloaded files, now I have: RomFiles/TB_X306F_S230940_240402_BMP.zip - I have to recompress directory myself. I guess it is for space saving purposes right now, right? and ToolFiles/MTK_Flash_tool_v5.1920.00.001_V2.zip Are these two files sufficient for recovery?

@gpatel-fr thanks for digging into this. So, right, it's supposed to use ncm and not rndis, but usb-moded should handle tethering with that . The file you tried to cat is restricted to root access, but even with sudo, it's not accessible, and that probably explains why the configuration script fails, falling back to charging only. Maybe the fp5 is missing the corresponding kernel module now, while it had it back in August? I created a ticket.

@idonthatevests Interesting. For what it's worth, I'm very confident that mine was glitchy before I ever installed uFirefox. I did have Ambot Installer for the more limited Lomiri toolkit, but I'm not sure whether ithas anything to do with that. Mine always seems to glitch out after notification/SMS. I always kinda figured something about my install was messed up, though I did install what I thought was the appropriate firmware and do the whole MSM&EDL mode thing. I mostly ignored this issue thinking that if it only affected my phone, it's not that important. But it'd be handy if we could pin it down.

@gpatel-fr said in Thinnking of getting myself into Fairphone 5...: @Boldos If GPS is something like a deal breaker for you, some Volla phones are said to have working AGPS , something that is lacking at the moment for the FP5 so GPS is a bit of a hit and miss. The other problems you are talking about are not specific to the FP5 (some rather uncommon media types have trouble with the main media app yes but can be read if necessary with third party software, VoLTE call following is also hit and miss, focus is not very reliable for low distance (<50cm) photos but this can be worked around by switching to video mode and back, and I have no problem with my Wifi hotspot but I'm not using a variety of Wifi nodes) I can confirm that the Volla Quintus has functioning AGPS. GPS lock takes a few seconds at most, usually.

Indeed, that's it. This points me to https://ci.ubports.com/job/ubuntu-touch-rootfs/job/main/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/ubuntu-touch-pdk-img-amd64.raw.xz .Thank you

@Talkless both projects are still maintained. UT has a lot more activity, but also a vastly bigger domain, so in both cases maintainers are spread thinly. That's not because what's interesting you is not moving fast enough for your taste that people are not active on these projects, they are just caring for other aspects of the projects.

If I understand it correctly, you want to connect to the UT device remotely? Via RDP or VNC? There's an app called MirVNCServer. it works but don't expect it to work well especially with input. For the other way around, there's CuteVNC. Again don't expect full features.

@bgriffis said in Any US users on Mint Mobile with MMS working? Can you share APN settings or any other tricks?: I forgot to add that wifi is enabled and my phone goes between L and 5g depending on where I am in the house. But I did not turn wifi off. Have you tried with Wifi Off ? There is a pendibg fix fo that but not yet landed.

@bgriffis Hmm.. yeah, if WiFi being off didn't fix it, it's worth considering whether it's the two APN settings vs one setting thing. Plenty of folks have had it work one way but not the other - mostly I've heard of North Americans needing two separate settings. For me in the past, MMS only worked if I had two APN settings AND the APN & MMSC for MMS did not match the APN & MMSC used for Internet. I got around this by finding a "tethering" APN for my carrier and using that as the Internet setting, and the normal APN for my MMS. I still do get the same message as you, "Could not fetch...", for maybe 10 or 20% of incoming MMS messages, and clicking Download only yields a second (and third, and fourth..) such message. But if the I ask the sender to resend the same file, it generally does work the second time. I have never been able to figure out why this happens.

@jojumaxx Merci, werde mein Fühler in Richtung snap ausstrecken und danke für den ernüchternden Hinweis zum dual boot. Dann muss das wohl alles über waydroid laufen.

@mihael Great that it works for you. Here is the topic dedicated to this new app: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11962/whatslectron-whatsapp-web-with-electron
