    • RE: How I'm now using Signal on UT

      @Marcos Thanks for your detailed instructions. I take it, step 2 means to kick the bot user our of the space/room? I am not using beeper, so trying to find out the aquivalent for Cinny.

    • RE: How I'm now using Signal on UT

      @janmv are you trying the tchncs.de signal bridge? There where discussions in their matrix room during the last few days, that the maintainer of that server thought about blocking users from foreign (= non German) countries due to some very heavy spam happening recently.
      I sadly saw some of the pics before they got redacted and got invites into rooms. Trust me those ... (I am struggling to write people, monsters would fit better) whatever need to be stopped. But sadly all of us are affected and suffer.

      So maybe they did make that happen and restricted access to the bot.

      Note: I was assured, when I asked, that existing users are not affected.

      @Marcos May I ask, how do you remove a bridge? I couldn't find much info on that? I think of re-doing my signal bridge since somehow I get no notifications but an unread counter of 1. Something is stuck somewhere.

      @rdfrs in addition to what @Moem explained, you can also go to the room with signal bridge bot, there you can type

      • help to get a full list of available commands
      • start-chat PHONENUMBER to start a chat from the bot end, provide the phone number in international format as +1234567890

      And once you have your chats as rooms in Cinny, you can type messages there as with any other room.

      @RedXXIII Thanks for reporting back. Good to see it confirmed, that both Cinny's can't "live" next to each other.

      @RedXXIII you can only try uninstalling the old one. I don't have both installed. It might be to some of the patches we use, that they register to the same push helper. So it might be worth uninstalling one.

    • RE: How I'm now using Signal on UT

      Anyone else here using the tchncs signal bridge and having problems recently? It stopped working for me.

      From reading in their support chat I learned, that might be due to some "federation issues" with tchncs and matrix.org. Whatever that means.

    • RE: How I'm now using Signal on UT

      @RedXXIII This must be some system bug, but after installing Cinny-UT, you need to restart your device once. This triggers Cinny being available in system settings under notifications. They should then work without you doing anything.

    • RE: How I'm now using Signal on UT

      @Sander Thanks a lot your detailed walkthrough.

      I actually wanted to recommend to everyone using matrix (new users expected here 😉) to set it up in a second device. Why?

      Chats in matrix are mostly encrypted. Those chats are only visible on verified so called sessions. A session is any other matrix client logged in with the same username and homeserver.

      As described by you, one can use a key to verify. But I found that more difficult than with a second device by comparing a few emojis.

      A second device can be any matrix client that supports verification. This can be Cinny or Element on desktop or another phone. But it can also be a web client e.g. cinny web. Just use a different device in case your phone breaks or get lost.

      Regarding Cinny, I am struggling with the terrible last mile fixing some last downloads. I am almost there for releasing. But I guess it will take a few more days...

      @Robipo Glad to hear you got it working. Hopefully soon that wouldn't be needed anymore (except for pre-release testing).

      @Robipo When I wrote this post, I didn't know, that Github only provides downloadable files for users that are actually logged in to Github.

      So currently you can either log into Github (if you have an account) and download it from there, or use the latest .click I provided in our Telegram QA group.

      I will release Cinny soon in OpenStore (I got the "go ahead" from the old maintainer today.), but a couple of steps need to be done until that is achieved.

    • RE: tedit development and design discussion

      @domubpkm I am sorry, I forgot to reply. Sadly so far I haven't found a working solution.

      When setting the TextArea to read-only, we can't navigate in it. So no option. I didn't found time yet to see if some manually added controls allow moving the text in read-only mode.

      I also tried (after your question, could you please open an issue/feature request so I don't forget about that?) to display the file in a webview. I used that successfully when testing something for weather app and webviews allow pinching and dragging and that.
      But for some reason simply instantiating a webview component in the code, not even displaying a file, always crashes tedit (of course no error message that might give a direction where to look at). I am totally lost here why that happens. Many apps use webviews for various purposes.

      @domubpkm thanks for mentioning this. I mainly use dark theme, so I missed that in abiance. I will try to fix that soon.

    • RE: tedit development and design discussion

      @domubpkm On my OP5T, I had tedit open and any other app. When I was doing the short swipe on the right edge to quick-switch between the two apps, tedit would always crash. But this seems to be fixed now.

      In the end it doesn't matter too much if you had it before or not. Important is, that it doesn't happen anymore now.

      @Josele13 Yes, I had this too, so I know what you describe. This as well might be fixed now.

      @Josele13 Sadly that is know to crash. The version you can download from the link above contains a possible fix for the crashes. I am not 100% sure though, I could be only lucky, but I had no crash since using that.

      @Josele13 The version will be the same, only when I make a new release it will change. The question is, do you run the app installed from OpenStore? Or did you install it from the link to the pipeline which I posted?
