Morph Browser

advocatux

@mihael it's only available in devel, as @3arn0wl has pointed out, because there are some issues yet (https://github.com/ubports/morph-browser/issues).

mihael

Thanks for the replies. I'm on rc channel, maybe I get it this Wednesday

Bear in mind, though, that with the arrival of the Morph Browser, the old Browser will dissappear. And if you happen to have the Browser Next installed from the OpenStore, you will probably want to uninstall that one.

Hi

Indeed, since 533 dev in OPO, I have on my phone MORPH BROWSER, BROWSER NEXT, no old BROWSER.

So, I thought BROWSER NEXT became unnecessary and desinstalled it.

******* A LITTLE TRICK ********

We can install bookmarks.sqlite of old browser in MORPH BROWSER. So you take a duplicate of this file you have done... or you can find this file in .local/share/webbrowser-app because there are always old folders and files of old browser on phone. After this, paste the file in .local/share/morph-browser

@3arn0wl Is there a click package to download, to try Morph Browser?

advocatux

@stefano afaik you can only try it for now running the latest xenial devel (it's included in the image) or using the ubports-qa script and installing ubuntu-touch but it should land in the RC channel "soon".

Stefano

@advocatux I'm on stable channel, thought there might be a standalone .click somewhere...never mind, I'll wait for it. Thanks for the info.

But... UI Tweak doesn't appear to know about it! So I can't let it run in BG?

mihael

@vandys I need this...

advocatux

@vandys I think it's because Morph is a deb package, not a click package (but maybe I'm wrong)

@advocatux If Tweak Tool worked for the old webbrowser-app then it should also still work for new morph-browser, but could be there is something hard-coded in the app for the browser?

advocatux

@dobey now that you say it, I don't remember if UT Tweak tool worked for the oxide browser, but it worked for browser-ng.

I'll ask in the QA group.

domubpkm

@advocatux I confirm UTTT works with webbrowser-app. I have a bq on 15.04 yet.

advocatux

@domubpkm ah, perfect. Thank you!

mihael

I really need to prevent Morph Browser from suspending... Anyone figured out how to do this?

Eupalino

After the latest updates, Morph-Browser doesn't start anymore on Hammerhead.

I got this error on syslog each time I try and launch it:

Oct 13 11:38:08 ubuntu-phablet dbus[2346]: apparmor="DENIED" operation="dbus_method_call" bus="session" path="/com/canonical/libertine/Service/Operations" interface="com.canonical.libertine.Service.Operations" member="list" mask="send" name="com.canonical.libertine.Service" pid=9883 label="morph-browser" peer_pid=3958 peer_label="unconfined"

Seems to be related to Libertine, but I have no container installed.

Anybody knows how to get rid of it?

Thanks.

@eupalino Is your morph browser part of OTA-5 or download separately?. If not wait for OTA-5 and see what happens then. Or clear the cache and data with uTweakTool and try again.
Lastly remove browser restart device and see how that goes. One other thing you could try removing any other browsers also.

mihael

@lakotaubp How can I find Morph Browser in UT Tweak Tool?

Stefano

@mihael You won't find it there.

mihael

@stefano Do you know how to prevent going into suspend mode? - because the option to restore tabs on start doesn't work so each time it goes into suspend mode and then is brought back it goes to the homepage and I lose all the opened tabs...
