@Flohack Camera it's filming in video mode. Android and iOs have confirmed. It's the Media player that is having issues.

@C0n57an71n How can you test my port, did you build it from my sources? I did not publish any images now ^^

flohack · 8 Mar 2020, 20:24

I finished Bluetooth today by the way

A Former User · 8 Mar 2020, 20:30

@Flohack I don't know what you talking about! On which of the issues are you reffering?

A Former User · 8 Mar 2020, 20:32

@Flohack I'm talking about OTA-11, as it was until today :)))

flohack · 8 Mar 2020, 20:56

@C0n57an71n Sorry to say but this thread is about the new N5 port based on Halium 7.1 and has nothing in common with the existing one - well the kernel is roughly the same ^^ so all what you said could be different for this port.

See my checklist on the beginning, those items are of course mostly working on the existing port, which is based on Android 5.1, but we want to step it up now

@Flohack said in Call for testing: Nexus 5 (hammerhead) owners:

USB: MHL/SlimPort

There is no MHL on Nexus 5. Also, I don't see ADB listed for the USB features, though I presume it is working since you've been debugging things.

flohack · 8 Mar 2020, 22:52

@dobey I am confused with all that USB extensions. I remove MHL again^^
For ADB: Thats a Halium port, they come without adb and use RNDIS/ssh instead. So thats kinda expected. @fredldotme made a point though that some Halium devices might have issues with RNDIS, so we might have to support both.
BUt as I understood the plan was to deprecate adb fully.

I have an N5 with Ubports OTA11 RC, how can I test it?
thanks

I can help with this as my Nexus 5 is now spare after switching to a ONO for my daily driver.

flohack · 19 Mar 2020, 07:19

Sorry guys but the virus outbreak caused some stress here that I am sorting out. I will write a guide for installation ASAP. Also, we are trying to get experimental builds into the installer, it will be much easier then

I tested it a bit, main issue for me is performance, probably cpu is not working at full power

aribk · 18 Apr 2020, 20:06

I'd be happy to help with the testing. Will possibly need to wait a couple of days, as my N5 is currently my daily driver, but from some time early next week I should be ready.

Hi @Flohack do you know if it is possible to use only a simcard with only mobile network on it? no phone number connected to it. I have tried but when I am trying to use the webbrowser it detects no network and the symbol for mobile network is black=no signal.

rocket2nfinity · 26 Apr 2020, 19:02

@Rondarius I have mine on Google Fi data only sim, no number. Works just fine

Rondarius · 26 Apr 2020, 19:24

@rocket2nfinity Hm, I plugged in another simcard in my 6P and it worked, I will try to use another card on my N5 see if it solves my problem.

ImmyChan · 26 Apr 2020, 19:46

Hi, not sure if I'm late or not but I'd be glad to help out

Rondarius · 26 Apr 2020, 19:51

@ImmyChan I think a can speak for Flohack and welcome you, and no you are not late it is still under development.

enrolado · 4 May 2020, 04:26

Is Ubuntu 16.04 still a hard requirement to build, now that you are on Halium 7.1? Or would an 18.04 system build fine? Will you also include a guide on how to build your latest code from source?

danqo6 · 5 May 2020, 15:52

@enrolado You can build halium on any system, it is very similar to building android. I am using Manjaro linux without problems.
