Hello, I was in contact with the developer of pure maps to see if he would be interested in porting to ubuntu touch, but he had a few questions..

From the developer:
""good question. I don't mind getting it running on UBPorts, I just lack info regarding it. As far as I heard, its also based on QML/Qt, but with UBPorts specific API.

In particular, I don't know whether UBPorts API based on QtControls2? If it is, it should be trivial to get it running. What about Kirigami? Currently, Pure Maps and OSM Scout Server support Silica, QtControls2, and Kirigami.

If you use some specific API, we would have to make new platform specific code. In practice, its not difficult, just would take some time. So, if you have someone who knows how to program under UBPort, I'll be able to help that person out and together it should be rather quick.

There are few other things that need to be ported, but I would expect it will be trivial as it is Linux.

Where could we get in touch that way that we can attract UBPorts developers? Looks like your mailing lists are pretty much dead."

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks

@dieharddan said in anbox halium or waydroid no support for UT?:

@stanwood I tried with a pixel 3a and when i start wayland I get
"start: Unknown job: waydroid"

I fixed my issue by reinstalling Ubuntu Touch and reinstalling waydroid with the following only:

sudo -s
sudo mount -o remount,rw /
apt update
apt install waydroid
waydroid init

Reboot phone

Great work on this! One thing I think would be nice is adding a double tap to close selection mode, and clicking done should always close out all together which would eliminate having to click done twice to close.

@Guf This is an exciting port, the lg g6 is a great phone. Any chance this would work with an h871?

Also, pull down to refresh would be cool

i use jotit

Awesome work! I've been waiting for just the right device to land here in the porting section to upgrade to and this may be it. tough question, but any sort of timeframes on when gps and mtp may be working? Not sure I can live without those

I just got this working now, thanks for the responses. I reinstalled the calendar, deleted gmail and caldav account and started completely fresh and it synced up and now shows the caldav option in the calendar settings!

THANK YOU! success with oneplus one on the latest release of the edge channel

Thanks for opening this thread, looking forward to more arm64 apps being available for the oneplus 3. I'm willing to assist in any way possible, but I'm not a developer

I purchased a 3A XL and will be trying this soon, has any progress been made on adding this to the ubports installer?

From a user on pine64 forum:

My wifi suddenly stopped working after sometime, but i got wifi working again after entering the folowing comments:

Open the terminal app and enter:

sudo nmcli radio wifi off
sudo nmcli radio wifi on
sudo reboot now

The pinephone reboots and I can connect with wifi again.

I would like the ability to pin top sites on the tab page or the ability to set new tab page to a local html file saved on the device

I was able to get the apn settings to stick and everything works except sms in as mentioned above, im willinf to help debug this with some guidance to get this working

Also, GPS is working perfect for me!

@stanwood I tried with a pixel 3a and when i start wayland I get
"start: Unknown job: waydroid"

@beidl great work beidl, i'm looking forward to this port reaching full maturity!

@fredldotme I found a great deal on another pixel 3a xl which I will receive in a couple days, I would like to assist in getting this supported alongside sargo

I've been using UT as a fulltime daily driver now for 2 months and am highly impressed. tbh, i didn't have high expectations before installing it, i figured it would be half abandoned project with lots of broken/missing functionality. So hats off to all the contributers. I do miss the silky-ness of navigating the android ui, while UT can feel a bit robotic and tedius.

It seems "hotspot" does actually work, it's just that the icon doesn't show up in the top menu; I've seen the same issue with the 4g icon not being there as well, even though 4g is working. Once hotspot is enabled, it can't be turned off though without having to reboot the phone.

Edit: hotspot can be turned off by toggling wifi.

@fredldotme I received my device; are you able to share any details on installing ut?
