  • RE: Wish list : which apps do you need?

    kiss launcher

    with an achoz plugin, for better search.

    the idea is basically having a unity/spotlight/latedeadgoogledesktopsearch

    and:

    • easy access to notifications with one hand on the bottom
    • search bar on the bottom
    • also a linl to search the web, store, and few other apps

  • RE: Default sudo password

    @pulsar33 on my volla i never had passphrase, nor pincode. just slide to unlock.

    i managed my risks in another fashion.

    everything else (from your screens) i had setup as i wished.

    just wanted to know the default password...

    but also, i may have found out a solution to one of my issues mostly related to this, can't recall exactly where now:

    mount -o remount,rw /.

    @keneda makes me wonder if and how that ever really happens anymore.

    sounds like an issue prior to ext3.

  • RE: OTA-19 Call for Testing Companion Post

    @keneda why 70% battery?

    i believe even 15% on my volla x should be plenty enough!

    did you mean 2h juice left? 😏

  • RE: Bricked Volla X Phone

    #braindump

    this whole thing, from the bricking, through trying to fix the hatch, to the teleport malfunction on the support channel, shows indeed a collection of unfortunate events not because of your unlucky self, but because volla and ubuntu touch still haven't grew out of this "embrionatic" state, in my humble opinion.

    got my own volla x just a few weeks ago, and i love it very much, but i can't trust my mom would be able to use it. mostly because i rely on telegram to talk with her, and delta chat still needs lots of improvements yet including a ut version (and i really dunno of any better alternatives), but also because of the rawmess of the whole eco system, from kernel development to ux polishing.

    this is normal, though.

    like every other truly free and open source huge project out there (android works as a bad example because of its closed ecosystem in practice, like everything google does, and we do need better words to distinguish such evilness), it eventually becomes the default option. software that works for everyone in reality requires this code cleaninless that can only be achieved with no bs full transparency. linux, wikipedia, blender, etc. smaller projects like ledger, ffmpeg, and rsync also play important pervasive roles... in common, they get used everywhere and have no need for an alternative.

    tl;dr

    we probably need more or better awareness around ubuntu in general, volla, and invisible pervasive projects.

    please keep us updated on how, i'm sure, you manage to unbrick it!

    @flohack is it possible and simple enough to revert back to stable afterwards?

  • RE: Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns

    @cregox in fact, perhaps it would be a great extension for ubports... filter words everywhere!

    i would certainly use it.

    replace google for g*****. 🤣

  • RE: Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns

    @lakotaubp feel free.

    at the cost of our freedom... 🙃

    to me, a much better way to handle this is making lists of words per user. everyone can choose their own filters, and how to handle their sensitivity.

    and thanks for the friendly warning!

  • RE: Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns

    i wished all phones would run linux instead of f******google android.

    and global 2g + 3g would be free, accessible everywhere. i don't need 4g or any higher.

    phone calls and MMS should obviously be free as well, world wide. charge premium for voice quality, video, etc.

    more to the topic, i wished that smartphones could be turned into "feature" phones, with:

    • last longing battery
    • an emergency physical button to call pre defined contacts, including cell tower emergency
    • 12cm (4 inches) screen at most
    • light and small enough that it wouldn't break when falling

    i would keep a 23cm screen one as a backup phone + powerbank ultrabook with screen projection on the other pocket, with the exact same os, everything synced... but only because i work with tech.

    everyone would have 2 phones.

  • RE: Wishes, Dreams, and Unicorns

    @dobey in portugal, MMS costs 30 cents.

    not being able to use MMS is a bonus for me.

    and pulsesms can do groups without MMS. 😘
