If I remember correctly, you can force hide the status bar in UT Tweak Tool.

I would start here:
https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/android9/xiaomi-mi-a2/xiaomi-jasmine_sprout

On Ubuntu 20.04 it is called ubports-installer. You can use snap list to check your installed packages.

On my bq e5 it took only 2 steps to enable ssh:

1. copy my public key to the phone: ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2. enable ssh access using UT Tweak Tool: System > SSH settings > Enable SSH access

Seems like you are not the only one who has this issue:

I was playing with UT on the Raspberry Pi 3 and there is Guest session option under the system indicator. Unfortunately, Lomiri crashes when you click it.

It worked much better than I expected. It is definitely usable for testing apps on larger screens. Nice job!
I've noticed that apps in full screen (in desktop mode) tend to crash but that can be due to low memory. Network works fine over the cable too.

@unisuperbox said in I have ended my contract with the UBports Foundation:

I'm all too familiar with the speculation when a project leader resigns.

My first thoughts: he's either got a better job or he's been cancelled

From all the self-help books I've read I've learned 2 main lessons: always take responsibility for your life (i.e. don't blame others if things are not going your way) and self-love. Without responsibility you are basically giving up your freedom of choice (you become a victim) and without self-love you can't do what's best for you (e.g. would you want to harm your body by unhealthy food or behavior if you really love yourself?).
Following these rules helped me a lot and seems like you are now also acting according to them. I see a nice future ahead of you

Thank you for everything you've done for the community.

The 2nd charging was much faster, like it used to be. I rebooted the phone before charging, maybe that helped

Device: bq e5
Build: 2020-W49

Hello,
my device charges very slowly (after 10 hours of charging it was only on 85%). I needed to charge only once so far, but I've never experienced this before. I will try to switch back to the stable build if the next charging time doesn't improve.

I have the Pinephone convergence package but I am not able to make UT work with an external monitor. I tried manually switching between staged and windowed mode, too. What is the status of this feature?

@dobey Thanks, I did not know that. It makes sense that there are binary compatibility issues if the D-pointer pattern is ignored
Could you give me an example where the private API is used?

Qt guarantees binary compatibility via D-pointers. So, simply replacing the old Qt libraries with the new ones should not break anything. Is there any reason why only QtWebengine 5.14 is planned for OTA13? I would be happy to see the built-in markdown support from QtGUI 5.14 and QtQuick 5.14, as well.
Thank you for the answer.

In the meantime Brian fixed it and closed the issue
Thanks anyway, I didn't know that merge request between repos is a thing.

Thanks,
It turned out that it is a Git related issue (older versions require the .git suffix).
I created the issue:
https://gitlab.com/clickable/clickable/issues/202
How do I move on with the fix? I can't create a branch on the server and I can't push my local branch to the server either? Do I need to wait for the repo owner to approve the issue first?

Hello,
I'm wondering whether the following issue is worth reporting or it's just an issue on my end.
On CentOS 7 clickable create ends with the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    output=stdout, stderr=stderr)

After I appended the .git suffix to the value of COOKIECUTTER_URL in file ~/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/clickable/commands/create.py it started working.

Managed to find a workaround. If you restart ofono (sudo initctl restart ofono), the import suddenly starts working. The drawback is that your phone goes offline and you will have to restart to get it back online.
The pattern seems to be, that if your SIM is offline, import works. My 2nd SIM is blocked, therefore it stood offline and the import worked on the first try.
Unfortunately, switching to flight mode doesn't work, because it simulates a modem with no SIM card.

I did a little bit of research. Contacts communicates with ofono (the modem interface) via D-bus.
So, just started dbus-monitor and then tried to import the contacts. Contacts correctly sends the request (ofono documentation

method call time=1537922880.561822 sender=:1.106 -> destination=org.ofono serial=2 path=/ril_0; interface=org.ofono.Phonebook; member=Import

but there was no answer. When I tried to do the import for the second time, an answer came:

method call time=1537922880.561822 sender=:1.106 -> destination=org.ofono serial=2 path=/ril_0; interface=org.ofono.Phonebook; member=Import
error time=1537922880.561933 sender=:1.44 -> destination=:1.105 error_name=org.ofono.Error.InProgress reply_serial=2
string "Operation already in progress"
error time=1537922880.562014 sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> destination=:1.44 error_name=org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown reply_serial=257
string "The name :1.105 was not provided by any .service files"

It was an error that the request is already in progress, however ofono for some reason sent it to a different destination. Therefore, D-bus didn't forward it to Contacts.
I also tried to wait longer (maybe just the import takes longer), but even after 5 hours the answer was "already in progress" (with the wrong destination, as well).
Then I found an old SIM in my drawer which was already blocked but it had some saved contacts. I tried the same procedure on it and the correct answer arrived almost instantly:

method call time=1537944623.758662 sender=:1.106 -> destination=org.ofono serial=2 path=/ril_0; interface=org.ofono.Phonebook; member=Import
method return time=1537944623.759495 sender=:1.43 -> destination=:1.106 serial=263 reply_serial=2
string "BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 <OUTPUT OMITTED>"

So, maybe my SIM is damaged after all. I will try to look into ofono why it gets stuck and why it sends the answer with wrong destination.

I'm running Ubuntu Touch 16.04/development (also tried 16.04/stable). When I try to import contacts from the SIM card (in the Contacts app), it says Fail to read SIM card. Calls work, so the SIM should be OK.
Does anyone know a workaround for this, e.g. reading the SIM contacts from the Terminal?

P.S.: previously I was running Android on the same phone with the same SIM card. The contacts were saved to the SIM card only.

@advocatux thanks, worked.
One comment for those who are doing the same thing: don't forget to enable developer mode once you have installed the legacy Ubuntu Touch. Otherwise UBports installer won't detect your device.
