I am announcing these posts on the forum, as I have not seen them published as on other occasions.

Hello @Opolork, you can open a bug in each application's repository. You can even make an MR.

@musicologist Do you tested Recorder?

@Lakotaubp said in Ubuntu Touch Q&A 168 call for questions:

@captainfunk You mean if you rotate so that the usb port becomes the "top" of the phone the screen does not rotate with it. Which it does not even on an android phone I have.
As to why, no idea : )

In Xenial they implemented it and it works. I don't remember in which OTA it started working.

hello @AmauryDBZ ,

What I do is to convert the video on a pc with ffmpeg.

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.mp4
#or
ffmpeg -i input.mkv output.mkv
#or
ffmpeg -i input.avi output.avi

It is a long process.

@domubpkm said in Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 20.04 OTA-8:

@Bolly Hello. What is your data provider ? For me, it is Bouygues. I want to be sure the problem doesn't come from this. I notice, when it switch back to stable (OTA-7), now i can't send and receive MMS too..

Hello @domubpkm , I'm sorry but the phone belongs to a relative and I can't test RC. Anyway in Spain we don't use MMS.

Hello @Vlad-Nirky

I use mailbox.org

P.S. Sorry for the offtopic.

@kaesestulle, Don't you have to activate the developer mode? Have you done it?

hello @Vlad-Nirky, you may have to add an option for each user to add their api key like the Indicator Weather app does?

Hi, if you want Whatsapp in UT it's as easy as asking Meta to make a version for UT.

Neither Google, nor Apple make Whatsapp for Android/Iphone.

Anyway this thread is not for debate this is a call for testing.

@Andrej1299 The best test you can do is to download Telegram on the desktop and see what it asks you.

If you haven't touched anything special they will send you a code in the other Telegram or by SMS. If so you don't need any password and you won't have any problems.

P.S. Or you can download this and log in to this application. https://open-store.io/app/mywebtelegram.josele13

@Fish said in Camera app cannot be installed:

@AppLee I have tried changing the channels. Unfortunately, the camera app is still missing ... and cannot be installed. It almost looks like there are no more photos for me now...

I suppose that apart from changing them, you installed the downloaded image, right?

Hello all,

Another alternative has been born.

Hello @jojumaxx,

I hope you find it useful in its Alpha state.

@AppLee said in Ubuntu Touch Q&A 143 Call for questions:

@Bolly :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
I wear UBports hoodies if that is what you're referring to.
There is this one: https://ubports.com/en/shop/product/ubports-hoody-15?page=2#attr=1

I have it :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

And the other one with the zipper was gifted to the contributors present at the first UBports TouchDown in February, so this one is a very limited edition.

I was referring to this one :call_me_hand_medium-dark_skin_tone:

Thanks

Hello and thanks for everything,
Where can we buy AppLee's jacket? It's very cool!

Hello I share this script to run it on the PC if anyone can use it.

The script in this case converts all mp4 and mkv files in the folder where you run it to an Ubuntu Touch readable mp4. The script does not delete the originals, it will put them in the Converted_videos folder at the same level.

#!/bin/bash
 
mkdir Converted_videos
 
for i in *.mp4
do
    withoutExtension=$(echo "$i" | cut -f 1 -d '.')
    ffmpeg -i "$i" Converted_videos/"$withoutExtension".mp4
done
 
for i in *.mkv
do
    withoutExtension=$(echo "$i" | cut -f 1 -d '.')
    ffmpeg -i "$i" Converted_videos/"$withoutExtension".mp4
done

I also share the original entry in Spanish

Hello @holgerlxxiii

As @AppLee said, there is no easy way.
