@domubpkm Sorted thanks. Another issue to double check copying links from Morph, only one allowed at a time without closing
-
@lakotaubp Done!
The build is pretty solid atm. Only issue I could notice was the GPS not fixing every time I tried to use it. Not sure how to reproduce the issue, I'll keep an eye on it and if I find a pattern to reproduce it I'll file a bug on the gitlab repo issues tracker. -
@penguin86 GPs would fail in UT side if it was used in Waydroid, just saying... Needs reboot then
-
@flohack I don't think that's the case: I'm not using Waydroid and the GPS behavior is more an hit-and-miss: yesterday I had a fix in the morning through the window with no problems, then in the afternoon I was outside and couldn't make it work. When back home, I unlocked the phone and noticed I left the app open: it fixed instantly, even if I was in a room with no direct sky view. The phone was never rebooted in the meantime.
Under "location" I see only "Using GPS", so I don't think it used my home Wifi to obtain the position (but I may be wrong).
This week end I'll be more time outside, so I'll try to reproduce it. -
@penguin86 Yeah we do not have geolocation hints by WiFi

Can't believe they were stupid enough to go with rounded corners. It's become a disease lately. Who are the idiot customers who are asking for phones that effectively cut away screen real estate?
Rounded corners don't look "modern" or "designy", they just look stupid, and for practical use ARE stupid. I would've bought one otherwhise, but I'll send Fairphone a mail saying the rounded corners make it a no-go for me.
-
It's your taste, but me, I like it. If i follow your comment, a lot of premium smartphones don't look modern : iPhone 13, S22 etc...

@bocephus Please for the last time of asking stop calling things/people stupid, idiots or anything else along those lines for not going along with your personnal view. It is not wanted or needed on the Forum.

@bocephus I have similar sentiments about excessively rounded corner and notches/punchholes but you should calm down
There are valid reasons why Fairphone went for those. I think mainly because available screen components are mostly like that and they can't ask someome to create special components just for them considering their size as a company. Also, it's just the truth that people nowdays expect "edge to egde" screen. Personally, the size, the notch and the rounded corners are turn offs aside from the fact I can't really buy it here in Asia But if it is easily available here, I might actually consider it because I've been looking for a long term UT phone as my daily driver.
