    • RE: Can't find way to move Recorder app audio files to my PC. [Solved]

      My workaround for the problem:

      After recording something with the Recorder, click the Share symbol in the top right corner, select File Manager and select the Download folder.
      Then connect phone via USB and you will find the recording in your Downloads folder.

    • RE: Morph Browser - Chromium 65

      We all are hoping that there will come a trick to install firefox (https://puri.sm/posts/desktop-firefox-in-your-pocket-with-the-librem-5/) or get an up-to-date browser very soon.

      Its tricky to use UBports in a daily world where everyone wants you to install their app (iOS or Android),
      if your workaround for this is to use the browser in desktop mode and then it tells you "your browser is not supported anymore" its quite annoying.... and really deal braking.

    • Stuck at bootloader

      I am using UBports on a OP6 and it works well.

      But when rebooting I am often stuck on the bootscreen, telling me that the bootlader is unlocked.

      After several reboots and switching the alerts slider up and down I then reach the OS,
      it feels a bit like gambling....

      When switching to dev channel it will stuck forever and can only be recovered with using the UBports-Installer to switch to stable.

      Anyone elese having the same issue?
      Any workarounds or explanations for this?

    • Simple UI documentation, need some help.

      Hi All

      I just installed UB ports on my Nexus 5 and I am very impressed.

      However, I could not find anywhere infos or documentation about actually how to handle the UI of this OS.

      When I login to my phone, I'd like to see some kind of Desktop, but I always see the Apps screen.
      I figured out that long swipe from right shows all the open apps and I can close them with swiping up, but the scopes app always stays open.

      Any links and information/documentation on this would be amazing.

      Second question, I installed via the super userfriendly ubports installer from my ubuntu desktop, I thought I can dualboot into my android, but how/where can I select to start into android?

      BTW.
      Camera seems to work good
      Testing Bluetooth in my car soon....

    • Angelfish Browser on UBports

      Anyone installed Angelfish Webbrowser on UBports?
      https://apps.kde.org/angelfish/
      https://jbb.ghsq.ga/debpm/pool/main/p/plasma-angelfish/

      I loved this browser on my Pinephone with mainline Linux,
      since its blocking all ads.
      Struggling with liberine containers (they just endlessly try to install), maybe someone can point me into the right direction to get Angelfish running on OP6 under UBports (does not matter how, libertine, container, compiling as system app....).

    • RE: Oneplus 6 stuck on 'unlocked bootloader' warning upon restart

      @toughcaddy
      weird.
      did you try to install stable with the ubports installer?
      for me this always fixed stuff without loosing data on the phone.

    • Bicycle Navigation App Development (HELP needed)

      Recently I found this very useful bicycle navigation app called brouter.
      While they have an online web version* without GPS support, I am wondering how hard it is to create a working app for UBports.

      The whole thing is based on java and I was able to compile the brouter-1.6.3-all.jar file and run it via terminal.
      Since I have no idea (yet) in clickable and java development I am kindly asking here for support and to spread again the idea of a cycling/walking navigation system, since organicmaps does not seem the way to go.

      Picture left: brouter-web calculating the track
      Picture right: puremaps imported the created track for routing

      screenshot_maps.jpg

      • the web version is hard to zoom in Morph browser, works with Onion browser but there is the lack of downloading a GPX track due to ro filesystem.

      @applee

      Thank you very much for your support !!

      I was able to mount the docker image with:

      docker run -it clickable/amd64-16.04-arm64:16.04.5 bash
      

      But suddenly I realised that libqt5remoteobjects5 is not available on xenial 16.04, nor on the xenial-backports universe and manually installing from ports.ubuntu.com results in an error.

      So I guess here is the end. I seriously have to think about switching OS after 5 years Ubports... 😞

    • No space left on device

      OTA-23
      Oneplus6

      Trying to compile a navigation app on my phone (since I failed with using clickable), but whe installing all dependencies via apt-get, I get the error:

      No space left on device
      

      What is the most elegant/simplest way to make the partition bigger?

      (searched this forum, but the stuff I found did not resize the partition)

      Any help very welcome!

    • RE: Bicycle Navigation App Development (HELP needed)

      ok, I got a bit further, content of my clickable.yaml looks like:

      clickable_minimum_required: 7.1.2
      builder: cmake
      build_args:
      - B build
      - DBUILD_DEVICE_MOBILE=ON 
      - DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang 
      - DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang++ .
      
      dependencies_host:
      
      - git
      - clang
      - libomp-dev
      
      dependencies_target:
      
      - qtdeclarative5-dev
      - libqt5svg5-dev
      - qtquickcontrols2-5-dev
      - libqt5sensors5-dev
      - qtmultimedia5-dev
      - libqt5remoteobjects5-dev
      - qtpositioning5-dev
      
      kill: osmin
      

      now I have following error:

      E: Unable to locate package libqt5remoteobjects5-dev:amd64
      The command '/bin/sh -c apt-get update && apt-get install -y --force-yes --no-install-recommends git clang libomp-dev qtdeclarative5-dev:amd64 libqt5svg5-dev:amd64 qtquickcontrols2-5-dev:amd64 libqt5sensors5-dev:amd64 qtmultimedia5-dev:amd64 libqt5remoteobjects5-dev:amd64 qtpositioning5-dev:amd64 && apt-get clean' returned a non-zero code: 100
      Command exited with non-zero exit status 100, see above for details. This is most likely not a problem with Clickable.
      

      How can I provide the missing package, its installed on my system when I do

      sudo apt-get install libqt5remoteobjects5-dev
      

      I get:

      libqt5remoteobjects5-dev is already the newest version (5.12.8-0ubuntu1).
      

      Any help very welcome!!!

    • RE: Bicycle Navigation App Development (HELP needed)

      @magdesign

      So I installed clickable on my computer and
      created a new project with:

      clickable create
      

      then I copied the whole git library from:
      https://github.com/janbar/osmin
      into the clickable created folder.

      from terminal I executed:

      git submodule init
      git submodule update
      mkdir build
      

      Now I want to build the app for ubports, but I have no idea how.
      The normal command would be:

      cmake -B build -DBUILD_DEVICE_MOBILE=ON -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang++ .
      

      followed by:

      cmake --build build/ -j8
      

      I tried with:

      clickable
      

      but getting following error:

      Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5RemoteObjects"
        with any of the following names:
      
          Qt5RemoteObjectsConfig.cmake
          qt5remoteobjects-config.cmake
      
        Add the installation prefix of "Qt5RemoteObjects" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or
        set "Qt5RemoteObjects_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
        files.  If "Qt5RemoteObjects" provides a separate development package or
        SDK, be sure it has been installed.
      

      libqt5remoteobjects5-dev and libqt5remoteobjects5-bin are installed.
      Can someone please help me on this !!
      I guess its something with https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/guides/dependencies.html,
      so I need to modify the clickable.yaml, but what would I need to add??

    • RE: Bicycle Navigation App Development (HELP needed)

      @spctrl Thanks.

      The nice thing about OSMIN is:

      • works 100% offline
      • has all the desired overlays built in
      • has a GPS tracker
      • can load GPS tracks
      • builds on linux phones

    • RE: Bicycle Navigation App Development (HELP needed)

      I found a great app which is compatible with Linux/Unix systems:

      https://github.com/janbar/osmin

      Tried to compile on UBPorts, but stuff is complicated with Clickable and Libertine, gave up after a few hours... it compiles nice on pinephone.

      if you are into copiling on UBports, please try out Osmin.

      @stanwood

      Thanks for your info!

      This helps me a lot, I will completely erase my phone and try again for roaming,
      and hopefully mark this issue as solved..... if its not an OP6 issue...

    • RE: GPS Help Request

      @dtarrant

      I own a OP6 device and figured out that I only get location data when a SIM is inserted and I do have mobile data. To get the position, in Battery settings => Lock when idle => After 10 Minutes,
      leave the navigation app open, check after 9 Minutes, touch the screen so it gets another 10 Minutes until it has the position. When display turns off, it somehow does not search for location anymore.... maybe this info helps you.
