    • RE: [Alpha] Greenline - A qml Whatsapp client for Ubuntu Touch

      @brenno.almeida i am sorry i did not mean to hurt you or be rude. as for permanently temporary solutions again my advice is to avoid this or refactor after the fact.
      high complexity means compromises what im advising here is that for what your describing i don't think you should compromise right now because you won't be able to back out without a lot of effort.

      @brenno.almeida so a premenantly temporary solution.
      yeah just make sure to refactor at some point. great client as is but i recommend you structure the client around the data not the other way, that way lies pain suffering and keyboard bashing.

      you need to add the ability to send files, you currently don't have the option so i cannot upload a .pptx for example.

      @nbdynl compared to a full electron app like whatsnew this might as well use no battery.

      at least from my perspective its noticeably better, could be improvements considering this is native and comparing it to electron is like having the bar underground, you pass it by existing above ground.

      to be fair, I have (with greenline) four service daemons that are not optimized running so whatever improvement there is I feel keenly.

      @brenno.almeida about that never mind, the background daemon took a bit of time to start handeling notifications properly.

      @brenno.almeida awesome app, switched to it.
      a thing you should add, is aytanna message indicator support so we can see messages after timer runs out.

      other then that, i think you should expand settings to include all the standard chat and profile settings.

      also sqlite db files should be encrypted if possible.

      @Kjetil considering UT is linux, something probably could be done but its another "nice to have" that will be on the backburner until the end of time.

    • RE: About to begin porting for the first time for Samsung Tab S6 Lite (Looking for advice)

      @gpatel-fr i'd say its more general experience coding/compiling, i will say the real barrier right now is enough ram to compile and have a few browser tabs open.

    • RE: I wanna go home

      @sixwheeledbeast a swipe from left to right opens the drawer, so i dont think making an action similar to it good (it also is the current action that happens when you do that) lomiri already has a lot of swipes, you swipe to go to drawer you swipe to close apps you swipe to switch to the app that you've used last (besides active app) and you swipe for the indicators.

      thats why i think double tap on logo is good, you're not likely to do it by accident, tapping the logo while drawer is open already closes it, and this action in desktop mode should just toggle minimize to all windows.

      either way this action cannot be a gesture because all direction are saturated with one or more gestures adding more we will be asking the user to be precise with finger movements, this means training muscle memory and paying attention. and that is a finite resource before the user snaps and quits on you this resource should be spent only when necessary.

    • RE: I wanna go home

      @UniSuperBox i know this is super old, but will a double tap on the ubuntu logo not suffice for going to background? its an action that exists both on desktop and mobile.

      i do agree that even in 2026 the background doesn't have anything useful rn.

    • RE: Poco X3 is no longer viable

      @kln_nurv yeah, its xiamoi in general thats not viable anymore, and I don't think any new xiaomi device will be ported. about the poco X3, if it doesn't have an efuse you're best bet is to downgrade to miui 12 with sp flash tool and bootrom bypass, then install a custom payload.bin from an already unlocked phone, i don't have this device but if you want this to still be viable we need a unlocked bootloader dump from a donor phone via sp flash (preferably a full nand dump).
      if you get me a full nand dump i can probably create a small bootloader unlock "rom" for you to flash with sp flash.

      just be ware that the nand dump if it a full one should not contain these: protect1, protect2, nvcfg, nvdata, nvram because they contain IMEI, bluetooth address/MAC, ect.
      protect1/2 are sometimes called L/R instead of 1/2 in the scatter file.

    • RE: lets talk about the "focus bug" ...i dub thee

      @developerbayman my guess is your app's creating a window which causes the focus to shift then the window crashes(or gets killed by lomiri) in a way that does not return focus.

    • RE: Need help spoofing a Motorola Edge 2023 (XT2305-1) in WayDroid

      @R66F root, you'd probably need to use a custom waydroid gsi with SU binaries. from there just install one of the many root modules/frameworks that let you spoof app id's

    • RE: Touchpad Users/Experts: What gestures and corresponding functions do you want in Lomiri/Ubuntu Touch?

      @kugiigi double finger scroll is really all i use, i do have one other gesture but idk if its standard or if its useful in lomiri but three finger press for middle click.
