        @guru sensorssatus is in the OpenStore https://open-store.io/app/sensorsstatus.chrisclime but I don't know about the other one, this is the first time I hear it.

          I updated the OpenStore app in the E4.5 and now the search works better. I could install sensorstatus from there.

          KnownDict is here https://launchpad.net/knowndict but I have to look for a click pkg...

              KnownDict was running as an app on my OWA15 device and have had support for the so called StarDict files, i.e. for dictionary files in that format. I own a Spanish dictionary of around 100.000 words. This is not to translate from, for example, Spanish to English, but to get the correct spelling and explanations of a given word, and examples of the usage. I really miss that. I will write an email to the old list, maybe someone has a backup of the click package...

                @guru I have good memories of knowndict as well! Seems its enough to

                bzr branch lp:knowndict
                cd knowndict 
                clickable --sdk 16.04
                

                I get through the wizard. But I cant remember anymore how to put a dictionary in there πŸ˜›

                  The click tar contains two dictionaries:

                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.ifo
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.dict
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.idx
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.idx
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.dict
                  share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.ifo
                  

                  Check, where they endup in the mobile. IIRC, it's enough to make a new dir and place the three files into it.
                  Will later check, if I find a slot in time....

                    Terence Sambo from the old ubuntu-phone mailing list, compiled a click for me and I installed it with

                    phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$ pkcon --allow-untrusted install-local knowndict.benyfu_0.1.3-15.04_armhf.click

                    Finished                      [=========================]

                    phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$ sudo click register --user=phablet 'knowndict.benyfu' 0.1.3
                    [sudo] password for phablet: 
                    phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$ 
                    

                    The rest was just importing my dictionary via the file manager app.

                    A big thanks to Terence!

                        The broken E4.5 returned from bq.com today, repaired (they swapped the screen for 120 EUR). It runs some version of UT.

                        How can I update this to the most recent version of UBports? I have no M$ laptop, only FreeBSD and some older Ubuntu 15.x

                        Thanks

                          @guru The installer should work with ubuntu 15 I think, if you have any issues try an older version of the installer like 0.1.12

                            I've downloaded the file ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.freebsd and can have a look into it with

                            $ xz -dc ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.freebsd | tar tf -
                            +COMPACT_MANIFEST
                            +MANIFEST
                            /opt/ubports-installer/LICENSE.electron.txt
                            /opt/ubports-installer/LICENSES.chromium.html
                            /opt/ubports-installer/blink_image_resources_200_percent.pak
                            /opt/ubports-installer/content_resources_200_percent.pak
                            ...
                            

                            How is this to be installed and used on FreeBSD?

                            I tried to rename the archive to the normal file name for FreeBSD packages, integrated it in my repository and tried to install it, which gives:

                            # mv ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.freebsd /usr/local/PKGDIR.20170304/ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.txz
                            # pkg repo /usr/local/PKGDIR.20170304
                            pkg -R /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/ install ubports-installer
                            Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...

                            Error updating repositories!
                            

                            Can the dev who created this archive please contact me? Thanks.
