      Hello everyone

      I successfully installed Ubuntu Touch to my Oneplus One (fantastic installer. Very simple installation).
      I like the new system. Refreshing change from Android, iOS. Easy to use beautiful UI.

      I fully support the idea of open smartphone OS. Big thank you for all the people who are making this possible.

      I would like to use the phone as my main but I have an issue with translatation:

      I'm not able to copy SMS (paste is working).

      Another issue is that if I try to use google translate (web), paste is not working.

      I'm using 16.04 (with wipe).

      Have a good day everyone.

        @vejas hi & welcome!

        You can copy an SMS sliding the message to the left 🙂

        I can copy text inside Google translate text field. Probably you just need to practice a little with that because it's true it requires some practice

          Thank you so much!
          Copying SMS is working great 🙂
          I managed to paste in Google translate once, so just need to practice more 🙂

            @vejas another trick for when you need to move the cursor. Press&hold the space bar in the keyboard and it goes blank. Then you can use your finger as a "joystick" so to speak

              That's a very clever idea.
