    @Moem said in If you're in the Netherlands... come meet us next weekend!: Offline Moem 29 May 2025, 01:22 On May 31st and June 1st, there is an interesting event around FOSS (free open source software) which UBports will be part of. We will be present with a stand and demo devices, and you'll have the chance to ask questions and get up close and personal with several devices running Ubuntu Touch. The event is called T-Dose and will take place at the Weeffabriek in Geldrop. https://t-dose.org/2025/ Come on by and meet us and we'll have a chat. Oh and I'll be doing a talk on Saturday! Will your talk focus on general Ubuntu Touch features, or more on recent updates and community contributions?

    @nogoogle I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but the whole reason that I left Telus was because they said that due to network changes, my device (then a Oneplus 5t) would no longer have functional MMS. https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/picture-and-group-messaging-changes The linked article says "older decices", but other communication from Public Mobile said the only way to be sure was to use a phone from a fairly small approved list, which FP4 isn't on. Maybe some kind friend who uses another network would let you briefly borrow their SIM for MMS testing, to see if changing networks would solve it.

    @lsitongia do you have correct android version? what is my device? adb shell getprop ro.product.name should print like "joyeuse_global" adb shell getprop | grep incremental should print [ro.system.build.version.incremental]: [832] [ro.build.version.incremental]: [832] [ro.odm.build.version.incremental]: [V12.0.2.0.QJZMIXM] [ro.vendor.build.version.incremental]: [V12.0.2.0.QJZMIXM]

    Was /data mounted correctly when you pushed the rootfs? Did you format userdata? Also, you seem to have overlaystore enabled but overlayfs in kernel is not enabled (unless I missed something). Anyway, it is better for you to ask in t.me/ubports_porting, there are more knowledgeable than me people there that can help you, and real-time communication is preferred because porting can take a long time to succeed.

    Getting just a bit more into UT, I guess I could get gdb on it, either by just finding a static gdb build and putting it in the user dir, or by making the system writable and installing it, and then attaching to the hanging process, but for the moment I'm just looking around. uNav is really a QtWebEngineProcess and trivially freezing for me. Pure Maps seems to be a native Qt application and it has been very rarely freezing (but it has happened) - on the other hand I'm not sure it ever actually stops locating with GPS while running, so it's hard to say if it suffers the same issue or not - What I'm wondering is if this is just a QtWebEngine issue or a general issue.

    Looking further I guess that setRadioPower is the actual function returning the error: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/opt/telephony/+/master/src/java/com/android/internal/telephony/PhoneInternalInterface.java#576 /** * Sets the radio power on/off state (off is sometimes * called "airplane mode"). Current state can be gotten via * {@link #getServiceState()}.{@link * android.telephony.ServiceState#getState() getState()}. * <strong>Note: </strong>This request is asynchronous. * getServiceState().getState() will not change immediately after this call. * registerForServiceStateChanged() to find out when the * request is complete. This will set the reason for radio power state as {@link * android.telephony.TelephonyManager#RADIO_POWER_REASON_USER}. This will not guarantee that the * requested radio power state will actually be set. * See {@link #setRadioPowerForReason(boolean, boolean, boolean, boolean, int)} * for details. * * @param power true means "on", false means "off". */ default void setRadioPower(boolean power) { setRadioPower(power, false, false, false); } So this seems to be just a general on/off toggle and should not have power saving implications. Disabling the "Cellular data" seems to only disable the data connection, not the telephony connection, and does not affect this message. Enabling "Flight Mode" does seem to make the message stop. Flight Mode also does seem to work because I can't call the mobile number anymore when flight mode is on. So is this maybe just a bogus error?

    @RobTheBold I've tried this phone (Global model) with AT&T, RedPocket (AT&T) and Mint Mobile (T-Mobile). The first two don't work at all. Mint works for voice and SMS but not MMS or data. I'm giving up on this one and returning it to EBay.

    @Twigg said in Fairphone "gen" 6 is there !: From what I have read above, it looks like there haven't been too many changes from FF5 to FF6, so perhaps that makes it easier for Ubuntu Touch to get released on the FF6? I said that ram and rom are the same amount, and screen only 30hz more. But SoC is completely different, hardware is different. I guess you misunderstood me, I didn't say FP6 is the same as FP5, I said Ubuntu Touch experience should be the same under FP5 and FP6.

    @Smirftsch Yeah, the idea of Dekko or another email client as a core app makes sense to me. Longer term, I thought at one point I heard talk about trying to fork Thunderbird, possibly via Snaps, which will be enabled by default in 24.04. But I'm sure that'll require some work to function well in UT. Meanwhile, I hope some other input about email usage, and Dekko specifically, can help make UT more useable for you.

    Hi @atarilinux Thanks for your enthusiasm. To start, here is the porting documentation because you'll probably need to prepare the development environment to build your own image for the Pixel3a. https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction/index.html @fredldotme might find some time to give you more insights on how to proceed and the exact repository for the pixel3a. As you see we're not connected all the time, but I try to keep up with the forum as much as I can.

    @captainfunk said in Ubuntu Touch Q&A 168 call for questions: Are you thinking or planning to implement the screen rotation to 180 degrees ? It depends on if the porter enabled it. The configuration file is located on /etc/deviceinfo/devices/<codename>.yaml. Taking the Volla X23 configuration file as a random example: SupportedOrientations: - Portrait - Landscape - InvertedLandscape As you can see, there is no "InvertedPortrait" mode enabled. I don't know adding it below will work. Edit: (sorry, just noticed the Q&A was 3 days ago...)

    Thanks for this reaction. Looking at the repowerd source explains why I did not find more hits for "FastDormancy": most of the time, it is "fast_dormancy", with an underscore . I'll check if this brings me any further.

    @sixwheeledbeast What you are describing is the same as I have. GPS: I still need to test (for you it works). Camera Glitchyness could be happening, did not have that myself. USB Dac and similar stuff can be tricky even on Android. For me it works better in UB-Touch then Android. Desktop mode / USB Video is clunky and/or broken depending on the Hardware used. Vibration and Notification is more about Waydroid then the os (It is part of a sublist in the waydroid row). The Libertine issues is FP5 unrelated. Waydroid and Vibration, Notifications passthrough and GPS are know limitation or issues. I just noted them down so if I check back on my own website later to check if something changed its working state i can know for sure. This list is just a copy of my website entry and you are right, a redundant list of "working" in the forums is no longer needed at this stage. Someone here asked for an updated and I was testing at the moment anyway so I just updated the first entry in this topic by copying my personal list to it. Calling waydroid a stopgap is a little hard that's right... I just use it that way on my phone. It is great and makes Ubuntu Touch extremely powerful in software compatibility but is mostly used to fill in for apps that are not ported or supported by the makers of the apps. On platform's like PCs it is more used as a "emulation" tool.

    @uwahl This was the place. By writing a new file named places.conf in /home/phablet/.config/filemanager.ubports/, I was able to get the File Manager app to access the server. Thanks all. Technically solved issue. And yet, performance is incredibly poor. Very slow to load, and read-only.

    On two Pixel 3a devices I have access to, I'm unable to reproduce the issue without Waydroid (Waydroid is installed but disabled using sudo systemctl disable waydroid-container.service). However, once Waydroid is started, the problem occurs after recording the first video. I don't have definitive proof that Waydroid is the cause in every case, but the correlation is strong enough that I attribute most of the video recording issues I've experienced to Waydroid running in the background.
