OTA-10 Has Been Released

redi

Hello,

I use ubuntu touch on a nexus 5.
Unfortunately, I can not perform the update. When restarting the twrp window is loaded. From there, although I can restart the system, but then the update is not performed.

I would be glad if someone could help me.

Greetings, Jens

@redi UT doesn't use twrp. My advice is to use the UBports installer to (re)install UT, just don't check the 'wipe' option if you want to keep your data

Thank you. As far as I understand twrp is something like a bootloader similar to grub. If I install ubports again will twrp be removed automatically?
I asked because I installed ubports using the old installer and twrp was not removed.
Perhaps twrp is left from an old lineageos installation.

@redi the installer should install UBports recovery.img (like the one that you can find at http://cdimage.ubports.com/ubports-installer/hammerhead/)

I installed the update, and now on-screen keyboard seems larger, for example covering the bottom controls in terminal, covering parts of the password screen. Would it be a good idea to reinstall the apps?

EDIT: I found a workaround:
gsettings set com.canonical.keyboard.maliit disable-height false

Still, the keyboard height seems too large for Nexus 5's screen.

@advocatux: Just that i get it right:
I simply re-install ubports, automatically removing twrp. Right?

@advocatux: I did it! Everything works so far. Many thanks to all developers!!!!

@nightshift: On my nexus 5 the on-screen keyboard is just as big as before the update.

@nightshift Can you share a screenshot of your OSK? I don't think there's a change in OTA-10 that could affect the keyboard's height. Perhaps specific to a layout?

nightshift

@kugiigi The on-screen keyboard is just as big as before the update. But IMO it can be shortened to show more screen area, especially may be useful in terminal. (my gsettings fix for the position is a separate item)

@UBportsNews who works on ui / ux in your team?

@Rodrigo My I ask why? It will help point you in the right direction. We are nearly all volunteers here and have different groups working on design, development, porting etc.

Rodrigo

@Lakotaubp can you guide me how to set up PC system to be able edit every UI element, including swipe, gestures, Scopes(!), app ui and notification panel?

I have a vision. I need the tool.

PS I dressage with cutting off Scopes just because some of members 'do not understand' them. You don't realize it's potential.

@Rodrigo a couple of quick things. Firstly This thread is about the release of OTA-10 so your question is probably better in he General section. Secondly you can get Unity8 running on a pc but I think thats its. For a more detailed answer re-post in General would be best.
