I wonder if the GPU can be made to work, or if Apple obfuscated the hardware beyond recognition...

Wouldn't it be possible for banks to do this the same way so many sites do? We have two authenticator apps on the store for UT, they work fine for Mozilla, Google, and other sites that do 2FA.

I'm able to use my bank's website through Morph to do my banking without issue.

@thepossessor Do you have a link to the instructions?

My Pinephone and new mainboard have been sitting in a drawer for the past month, and I came here because I was planning to do the swap tonight.

I'm having a hard time seeing the controversy here.

Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand this there are two things the OS does to 'phone home':
1 - a connectivity check which would include a browser user-agent string
2 - phone model and os version/channel - because it needs this info get the right files to do OTA updates

I guess one isn't opt in, but is kinda necessary for a connected device OS, and two is opt-in. It sounds like Ubports keeps a simple record of the above info.

The website should not be confused with the phoning home. That's a separate issue.

Ordered one myself. Slightly pricey but for a project I'm happy to support.

There is also always the wonkiness of adb and fastboot, trying a different usb cable or another computer is sometimes a good bet.

MMS is extremely common in Canada too. I've switch a device back to Android for the next few weeks because I need to reliably recieve some MMS's.

By basic I mean expected minimum feature set for a simple user. In Canada it would be GSM/LTE, SMS, MMS, and a camera. No one in my sphere is interested in UT simply because they use MMS too much.

I certainly don't intend to imply anything is 'simple' to implement. Reminds me of the Captive Portal issue, where I've gotten good at figuring out the right address but sure have no idea how other systems guess at this... but they do get it right all the time.

@Tellina said in OTA-14 Call for Testing:

But for many entries I had no clue how to verify them. Maybe some are quite technical and I was even not aware of the existence of them at all.

Just doing your normal activities and pulling up less used apps is testing, no news, is good news. Then report any issues arising after the change.

As a novice techie most all of these things are over my head, and my experience has been RC channel is remarkably stable. These devs are good at that.

I played with this a bit to compile Rust code. You can find my results here:

The most important part was putting files in a directory that Libertine can access; ~/Documents is an easy choice for that as it is simple to locate in either system.

@Flohack
Thanks for the insight, it makes more sense now and would seem to justify @lduboeuf 's solution. A person should at least know something was missed.

@lduboeuf

I have to agree something is better than nothing... I'm hoping the efforts to update ofono bear fruit for this long standing issue.

Does anyone know why fixing this rather basic feature has been so long without resolution?

As for the error text, I feel the wording should properly place blame on the OS as opposed to making it sound as if the sender is at fault

Something like:

Oops, there has been an error with the MMS system and this message could not be retrieved.
Please ensure Cellular Data is ON and MMS settings are correct, then ask the sender to try again.

@TotalSonic you can do that. To load sample.html from your Downloads directory put this in your browser address bar:

@poVoq I really do think Morph is great, there isn't much more I would ask of it.

@Giiba and the ability to video chat/conference.

Having read the promotional material for that app... Doesn't it just encourage people to have gatherings indoors, exactly where they shouldn't?

There's a bad marketing vibe going on; want to party at the club? Go ahead, you've got an app for that! I'm not criticising your choices, but your government seems out to lunch if they think this app will encourage safe social gatherings...

You should have recieved the sms. I doubt the Anbox app can directly recieve an sms but you should get a code that you can input no?

@dobey I couldn't (nor would) hold back progress, and your additions to my list of one item are exactly the sort of thing I hoped to draw out.

For the record, I am fully in support of continued development of Morph , and being on a Pinephone now I have stepped past oxide whether I wanted to or not.

@TotalSonic but can it keep a lock and update as your location changes?

I ask honestly as the last time I tried in Morph 4 months ago, it did not work. I understand Oxide containers are old and have to go, but we should be sure the replacement functions fully. This is the only use case I had for an Oxide base app, everything else is handled very nicely by Morph.

Oxide is the only one that works properly with the location service...

I have not tested since I crushed my OPO and started using a Pinephone though.

There is (was?) an oxide based webapp for google maps and it was the only one that properly locked location and tracked along. Morph (before the recent engine change) would lock location then freeze the location service and not update again, often requiring a reboot. It was the same for all web-based maps I tried.

Can the current morph maintain a location lock on a webpage?
