@arubislander said in Unable to login due to the password change: @pine_usr said in Unable to login due to the password change: In regular Android ... Ubuntu Touch is not Android at all, so it seems strange to compare it with 'regular' Android. But I do understand your meaning. However, since this is a PinePhone, ADB is unavailable and SSH is not setup / started by default at the moment. So I am afraid the only option left to you is, unfortunately, a reinstall. Thanks for the reply. Yes, I just compared the idea about factory reset as in Android devices, didn't mean it's should be the same. Just trying to learn UBPorts and Linux phones more, so there should be a solution to reset a password or system. There is a telnet connection available to Pinephone: "telnet 172.16.42.1" so is there a way to reset a password via telnet? Also, UBPorts recovery could potentially help to factory reset device without reinstalling the whole system? Thanks!

Will this work on SOV33? That's the one I found locally so far.

@Luksus I just flashed it, I'll tell you if everything is fine

@jonius oh awesome, I'll check that out today when I get an opportunity.

This thread also applies here: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3962/video-calls-in-ut/22 Although, I disagree that morph should remain a dumb browser. As long as you have to explicitly give permission for camera/mic access, that should be enough, in my opinion. Making an app seems possible.

@AppLee said in Video calls in UT: @Giiba said in Video calls in UT: just knowing that a general consmer would expect No consumer here : only users Yes fixing it on morph is A solution. Not the one I like. I prefer Morph to be a dumb browser without access to camera, GPS, microphone or other personal stuff. But I guess if the issue is fixed (at what cost ???) then I'll be able to block morph from those peripherals. Just taken notice of this thread as it appeared in my unread section. +1 for @AppLee 's statement , couldn't agree more regarding Morph to be and stay a 'dumb' browser for the general user, not having to worry it'll be granted access to any permissions. Better have dedicated apps for specific users in need for video calls at their own risk.

Topic: Navigation slider in Terminal core app and how to activate/hide it. Note; This behavior was tested on Nexus5, OTA12 stable. Additions and modifications from other users are more than welcomed The navigation cursor will initiate only when the text exceeds the screen and keyboard is present on screen If not engaged, the cursor will deactivate in aprox, 5 seconds and you won't be able to recall it again unless closing the keyboard by sliding it down and opening it again.

@thilov ok thanks

@dobey It's not a use case for hide.me. I know this form other VPN providers like NordVPN. Sailfish OS uses a simple approach to setup a VPN by importing an OpenVPN file. This is fine for the first step. But I realized, that the servers for each country are frequently changing. For a consumer it's difficult enough to download the correct OpenVPN file from the provider's support page, but frequently do this again is not convenient, in particular if you are mobile and busy and you realize, that the VPN is not working any more.

I think in one of the previous Q&A it was discussed what to do with the money raised through the PinePhone campaign. It certainly will not be used to employ someone, but they mentioned that some freelancers could be paid from it. Anyone has an update on that?

Ok. Thanks. There is no rush. Happy vacation! PS. I turned flash on from battery. I opened camera. The flash was switched off. I made foto -no flash. I closed camera. The flash was off but the button from battery settings was on.

I'll try to answer base on what I know. Note I might be wrong though Just check the update page and make sure to install all app updates. If it shows no update then you're most likely in the latest version. If you're on stable channel, I believe push notification is enabled so you'll get one if there's a new update. If you mean the link below, then no they're unrelated. That's just a job that builds the same image (or stable) over and over again and it was daily before so the number got really big. Just ignore these builds. You'll only need it if you want to reflash. https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinephone-systemimage/ No I'm not in stable channel on my pinephone right now so I can't see it myself and refer but in the OS build details page, you'll see different values such as UBports Image part and Device image part. OS Build number shows your current build number. Not sure if the pinephone shows "OTA" label or just build number for now. UBports image part is the build number/date for the rootfs or the actual OS. Device image part is the build number/date of the device specific software such as kernel. I'm not completely sure on this but this is what I know

bin/python3 from gi.repository import GLib import dbus import dbus.mainloop.glib def incoming_message(message, details, path, interface): print("%s" % (message.encode('utf-8'))) for key in details: val = details[key] print(" %s = %s" % (key, val)) if name == 'main': dbus.mainloop.glib.DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True) bus = dbus.SystemBus() bus.add_signal_receiver(incoming_message, bus_name="org.ofono", signal_name = "ImmediateMessage", path_keyword="path", interface_keyword="interface") bus.add_signal_receiver(incoming_message, bus_name="org.ofono", signal_name = "IncomingMessage", path_keyword="path", interface_keyword="interface") mainloop = GLib.MainLoop() mainloop.run()

I got my Pine Phone about a month ago, and am eagerly awaiting the next update. I'm hoping some of the more obvious problems are going to be fixed, such as the headphone jack problem, the SD card problem, and the battery problem.

Yesterday the screen was unresponsive again but without the 'crazyness' described above and without the usb conected. I've read something in dekko 2 from open store about something about queues and hanging. Could that be the reason for the unresponsiveness?

@Rondarius No, that won´t help. Lemme try this out, I will leave the phone sleeping and then let someone call me resp put a few alarms inside. Note I am on holiday now for 2 weeks, so I will not actively work on anything xD

@domubpkm No I can´t say more. Thats also because our pipeline is filled to finish Pinephone and Volla, as we have kinda agreements there
