        Thanks to Marius we now have System wide adblocker for ubuntu touch: https://uappexplorer.com/app/uadblock.mariogrip

        Nice 🙂

        It says GPL v3, but I see no link to the source code!?

          Magnifying glass for the edit cursor

          Oh yes! That would be great!

          Sailfish has that done in the best way I have seen on any smartphone/touchscreen

            @MK73 For printing there was already some work done by Canonical, but I am not sure we can already include it in OTA-3. Because it can only print pdf documents 😉

                    to your topic printing-work by canonical/ota3?......for me, pdf printing is all i need 🙂
                    is there a reference- printer to deal with?
                    i only ask because working with printer-drivers is often a neverending story. or would we send in future printjobs by this way over halium/googleprint? so the workload on drivers could, maybee be outsourced to company google/googleprint.

                      @mike Currently it has some cups stuff inside, Andrew Hayzen has the details. Dont ask me, did not look what printers are supported 😉

                          @Flohack Thinking in print, cups client was my 1st idea as well, esp. for PDF, and the CUPS backends for LPD and socket can print to nearly any device w/o needing any Win* driver.

                                Maybe it was already discussed, but capability to work (and have easy way to install without need to enabling write mode on the system) linux desktop apps, like any other distro (would prefer if straight from debian) especially for PC mode 🙂

                                    Would anybody else be interested in the swype keyboard? I used to love that on my meego! 🙂

                                      Tweak wifi refresh interwall. Default setting is ~2mins like in PC Ubuntu and you get to connect wifi faster by turning it off and on again. 30sec would be ideal.

                                      Also when you receive SMS or any other notification you shouĺd see that tab first when you pull it down.

                                      Remove that annoying "SD card found" notification when you boot up.

                                      These are small fixes that shouldn't be too much of a task to do, and i think many would agree with me.

                                        Increase the time notifications pop-ups last on screen, now they close too fast and sometimes it's hard to read them before they close. Also: increase the font size to make it easier to read them.

                                            @doniks yep, I actually have that scope but it is necessary to have "big" computer AFAIK with ubuntu and process is not what could be described as easy one 😄

                                              gsettings set com.canonical.qtmir lifecycle-exempt-appids

                                              Very strange this. This doesn't work on my Nexus 4 with the canonical image, but on my Nexus 5 with the ubports image i used the UT tweak GUI which seems to do exactly the same but works. Is this maybe only working on the ubports images?
