Evaluation of criteria to get Morph less prone to fingerprinting. This has been discussed earlier this year (https://forums.ubports.com/post/44876) and people would feel more comfortable using Morph browser knowing the utmost has been done to minimize the risk.

@jackharness said in Pixel 3a XL experience:

Network support is very hit-or-miss out here unless you go with Verizon, and I honestly couldn't be bothered with the switch. Keeping a number while switching plans is a hassle, and keeping my number is important to me. I'll definitely keep my eye out for VoLTE support, though.😉

Yes, unfortunately several parts of the US are only covered decently by Verizon. VoLTE support would be a big win. As noted, Droidian may be worth trying, but you won't have the UT / Lomiri goodness there yet.

@cliffcoggin
Hi,
People who are able to donate a significant amount of money are used to getting what they think they will get, otherwise it will be returned or claimed.

What is not possible with donations, so they will be careful not to spend a lot of money in advance, but they want to try it out to form a satisfaction ranking, on the basis of which they decide what it is worth to you.

Only with hobbies and other passions or for donations to charities, the money plays a subordinate role.

It's just the way it is in this world, you can't deny it or change it.

Greetings Mario

It's obvious English isn't your first language

Maybe english is not my first langage, but i understand it enough to know calling "dumb" what someone says is offensive, and that this person can take it personally as an insult (in fact, in any langage...).

I also understand it enough to recognise irony, and irony is not dumb, it's just irony, involving marmelade in present way...

On this forum, code of conduct allows irony, not calling dumb people or what they say.

@Keneda I was used to copy links from morph to axolotl: unforrunatly that works anymore.

Some caveats about this, quoting from the UBOF Telegram group:

thats the old one that wraps here

"here maps"

that has been removed, since here requre licensing

we are hopefully moving away from ubuntu location service and just use geoclue and qtlocation, and use the hybris platform

Is it OK to use espoo in the meantime?

Marius Gripsgard, [20.11.18 21:52]
[In reply to myii]
yeah should be ok

that will just use gps though, no agps support

Key points:

espoo uses HERE Maps, which requires licensing Lacks AGPS

The most important thing to me is privacy. Not to be in the hand of Google or apple or windows or anyone else.
It haven't to be mainstream, but it have to respect me.
It is also important to me to use my device as long as I want, secure. And not have to by a new device. (I know this is kind of not realistic because it is in the nature of the things that operating systems need more powered devices when the develloping is going on)

In this context a verry huge thank you to the people of ubports and halium.

@sverzegnassi The new UX default Scope / screen mockup looks very nice.
Nonetheless, even though that the Scopes idea will be dumped, I would expect that we would like to show at least same information as before on the UX default screen. Meaning we will keep the function code of the Scopes and will throw away the UX parts.
So, when would you expect to get the new UX default screen running? How would we migrate from the Scopes to the new screen causing as less as possible loss of functionality (since at least IMHO some of the functionality of the scopes is really helpful)?

@flohack I own an hammerhead device and would like to test a "recent" Linux system on it.

I gladly make myself available as an alpha tester.
Is there already a Halium 9 based build to test?

@jjconstr said in Installing UT on N5 stuck in boot loop:

@cela
Thanks for the tips. They were helpful. I didn't have to check youtube. I used my fingernail to remove the back, took out some screws I didn't need to, lifted the battery connector and then the battery. Putting a new battery in didn't correct the boot loop though. I also poked and prodded the switch to see if it would loosen up and work. No deal. Looks like there is a small pin or shaft that the button pushes on when depressed. It doesn't look like it moves at this point.

I appreciate your help!
Thank you,
jjconstr

I guess I was one of lucky 1% that swapping out the battery worked for.

Careful with the hot gun and shield any parts that might melt when you swap the switch, those switches are so tiny good luck.

@kugiigi thank you for the feedback!
For some reason Seabass can't execute libertine-launch on Nexus 5, although libertine-launch works fine from Terminal. The problem could be somewhere in between seabass, pyotherside, libertine-launch python script and proot (used by libertine-launch), but unfortunately for now i don't know what exactly goes wrong.

@fredldotme No, I'm on stable. But thanks for the information.
The drain is still there. It's most likely UBsync's fault because it's the latest app I installed 😅 I'll just try to uninstall it and go back to manual backing up to my NC 😃

@uwahl idk sorry,

@serhio

ended up just selling the phone for parts lol.

good luck with it!

@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. 😞

@mlinodasilva I have not such a problem with sound, but other users reported that already. So yes a bug.

You can still install some scopes from Canonical Ubuntu store. Maybe not all, but most yes.
