    @Vartojas

    I use my UBports Nexus 5 as a daily driver. As my UT BQ4.5 has been my first Smartphone I feel at home with the logic of the OS and don't miss the variety of apps in Android or iOS too much.
    But I wished GPS would work and the connectivity of the phone and the stability of the OS were better. But as I donate only little, I can't ask for much, can't I?

    • RE: "5 minute" tasks

      Other tasks:

      • go to the page of ubports on distrowatch.com and help ubports to rise among the top 100 (6 month-list visitor ranking) to be permanently present on the front page. As it is one of the most frequented sites for linux distros, permanent presence on the front page will help spread the word.

      • Write a review on https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubports

      • Look for blog posts / articles on ubports and add a comment.

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch Q&A 47 Saturday 6th of April at 19:00 UTC

      The foundation is wonderful news. If I remember correctly the foundation was not only to gain tax reduction for donations - a "Verein" would have been sufficient, but rather it was pursued to have a legal person/entity in order to enter legal contracts with partners.
      So: Are there any specific plans to use the foundation to enter cooperations? (I think the topic arose around the discussion about bq devices.)
      What will the cooperation change regarding the two employees of the project? Are the plans to employ more people for programming, coordinating etc. pp.?
      The foundation was established in Germany - does this change anything about the structure of the project? What will be the role of the members of the board of the foundation in the project?
      How will the setup of the foundation change the funding of the project?

      I believe this is a huge step for ubports! Congrats to the project and a huge applause to the driving forces of this success in the community.

    • RE: Ubports TWRP Recovery Flashable zips out there/possible?

      @errorcodevortex I kind of miss the gratefulness in your remarks towards those who make it possible to have phones without android / macos/ windows - for free! And I miss the understanding for the fact that a project which is run on voluntary basis can't produce the same results as big companies can. Joining in on the ride includes the acceptance that not everything works here and now as it works on the other side.

      And just as a reminder. Most of the people involved are voluntarily doing so. I can't see any reason what so ever to do or write anything to - excuse my language - piss any of those volunteers off.

    • RE: New badge for Yumi?

      @Josele13 i do like the principle of the design as @Aury88 proposed it with 3 persons, reaching the hands.
      I personally have less a problem with the basic design than with the coloring and the additional ring that in combination immediately reminded me of runes. And living in a region where people tend do abuse runes for unfriendly political codes, I rather prefer not to have a badge which makes me look like one of them.
      Therefore I would prefer a badge which looks first less like a rune and secondly underlines the connection to the original design of Ubuntu.
      I tried despite missing mastery in GIMP to illustrate my point by coloring the sketch of @hummlbach changing it only in two regards: linking the heads with the body and adding a colored circle. By linking the heads with the body the proposed rigid structure of lines and circles is broken and by adding a colored circle which intersects with the heads in their center a quote of the logo of ubuntu is introduced...trefoil-of-friends_c.jpg

    • RE: Can't make or receive phonecalls pinephone

      Hm. Calls work with me. Also Germany but carrier is Telefonica.
      But the phone disconnects from mobile connections while morph browser is running. And the Wlan disconnets after I click on a link on any website and only loads after reconnecting... 😉
      ...but compared to 2015 everything is still amazing.

    • RE: Can't install or download document viewer from openstore

      @Lakotaubp That was the solution for me. After setting Screen Saving to never, Document Viewer was fully installed.
      Thx for the fast reply.

      4 yrs later. Similar problem with Volla X23. Can't install Document Viewer via OpenStore. Is this device specific? Is there a workaround?

    • RE: Camera working?

      the same here. S3 Neo+. Camera app says it doesn't has the right to access the camera and somehow I can't change the Zugriffsrechte (whatever that may be in english).
      Before one of the two cameras worked - no none works. When the camera stopped working (which update) - i can't tell.

    • RE: Device does not switch off after timeout?

      @flohack and I always believed it was intentional, to transfer a sense of calmness to the user... So for me it adds a certain charm to the device 🙂

    • RE: S3 Installer: Now looking for beta testers ...

      @flohack and the phone needs a double boot (or boot / reboot) after being switched off to recognize the sim-card.
      After the first boot after having shut it down it almost always shows a missing sim-card only after a Neustart it recognizes it.

      btw... @Flohack would you be so kind to add a link in this devices subfolder where to report bugs? I am sure that I can find the answer somewhere in the forum, but...
      thx

    • RE: S3 Installer: Now looking for beta testers ...

      @applee thx for the workaround. now that you mentioned it. i remember, that the nexus5 has shown the same problem before.
      the thing is (to say it in denglish), that the messages were displayed not long ago correctly. the problem must have caused by some update after #80.

    • RE: S3 Installer: Now looking for beta testers ...

      I don't know whether to post it here. Sent SMS are not displayed correctly anymore. One can only see the top line and the bottom line of the "green" message. I can still read any one liner. But as soon as the message gets longer, there is no chance of deciphering it. Meaning that I have to remember, what I wrote. Works for 2 minutes. After that I forgot what I wrote and the guessing begins.
