@Aury88 said in Ubuntu Touch Q&A 76 Saturday 23rd Of May At 19:00 UTC:
I ask you the question since you are the ones with the most knowledge of the code: how difficult is it to add features such as global menu, progress bars / notification bubble in launchbar etc.?
All of these listed features already exist, I'm pretty sure. Teleports utilizes the count bubble on launcher already for example. Global menu messing with indicators a bit was also part of the reason OTA-12 took a bit longer.

Hi
I would like to volunteer to help go over and edit the porting documentation and get it up to date. Problem is, I have insufficient knowledge to do this all on my own, but I thought if someone would care to point out what is out of date and what needs to be revised +explain a bit, I would be more than happy to do the writing and editing. (Maybe it could even help me overcome some obstacles I am experiencing myself in my current porting efforts.)

Hi @aribk. Great! Yeah the porting docs could use some help. It's hard to have that list of what needs to be worked on. In some ways finding this out is precisely the kind of help the docs would need
Some thoughts: I am aware that a lot of info is missing, I am not aware that anything is out of date (ie. should be removed), but if you know some, do speak up! Otherwise, it is probably best to start from problems you had with your own port, since this is an area you spend much time with and there are probably not many others, so you're the sole subject matter expert. Another sore point I see are the various pads flying around. They are great for ad hoc collection of knowledge but there are not a great tool for keeping knowledge up to date. Another one are the newer halium revisions. Sorry to rant so long here in the questions thread. Happy to continue the conversation elsewhere (tg, forum thread..) -

I'll DM you both to sort this out -
I've been testing the PinePhonee for quite awhile now, but am still having one problem: Is there a trick to placing a phone call? I'm using an image I downloaded last weekend, which I updated, (apt update && apt upgrade), and I'm using T-Mobile, which I hear is a good carrier to use with the PinePhone. I can receive calls, but when I try to place a call, it returns: Call Failed.
Many thanks
