@dobey said in How can a webapp run in sandbox when using Morph browser to display its content?:

It does not destroy the profile on exit, no. Why would you want such a behavior?

Just to prevent blowing up the webapp profile too much... 🙂 As a pure reading app, in my eyes there is no need to store any data on the phone. Neither cookies nor anything else (e.g. accepted privacy confirmations).

@custello just search for it on open-store.io, but there isn't one I think. anyway, you can easlily make a webapp using webapp creator on Ubuntu Touch for that website

GSettings values:

$ gsettings list-recursively com.ubuntu.touch.sound com.ubuntu.touch.sound incoming-call-sound '/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/ringtones/Ubuntu.ogg' com.ubuntu.touch.sound incoming-message-sound '/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/notifications/Rhodes.ogg' com.ubuntu.touch.sound silent-mode false

@custello said in How to download and install Apps from OpenStore via CLI?:

Funny fact: The index.html file has exactly 6.53 MB (what would be the same size as Dekko's .click package). Maybe wget just renamed the downloaded file as index.html?

Thanks to @Ingo's knowledge, this is partly true! wget will ignore the response headers, because this is an experimental feature at that time. Therefore wget uses a standard name for the downloaded file, and this one will be a classic index.html. 🙂

@dobey said in How to download and install Apps from OpenStore via CLI?:

The --allow-untrusted is required, because by simply downloading a click directly, you are missing the additional metadata, and are not verifying that what was downloaded, is trusted.

Okay, thanks a lot!

So the final (working) command should be:

wget https://open-store.io/api/v3/apps/dekko2.dekkan/download/xenial/ -O /home/phablet/Downloads/dekko2.dekkan_armhf.click

Afterwards:

pkcon install-local --allow-untrusted /home/phablet/Downloads/*.click

Finally it is working! 🙂 Thank you very much for your awesome help guys!

What I did?

Resetted the whole Ubuntu Touch device to factory defaults
(probably some Dekko fragments of UT 15.04 have been hanging around) Installed a virgin Dekko from OpenStore Setup all user profiles one after each other

Finally the wizard also displayed the magic page where one can specify server settings by hand. This page has never appeared before...

Furthermore, I see the message "Your acount has been set up successfully" or something similar after completion - that also did never happen before... 🙂

Thanks a lot for your kind help!

@3arn0wl "To improve privacy, I'd like the option of using the Tor network."

Running Tor on Ubuntu Touch devices would be a great feature for sure! On all of my desktop computers I'm using Tor as my standard browser since three or four years now. Nowadays and in times of unlimited tracking run by companies like Facebook, Google, Microsoft etc. there is not any reason anymore to not use Tor as a daily driver.

@custello yes, the data is still at the same place. (Despite the new namespace. No new locations for data.)
