    • RE: adb - no permissions

      @stefano Thanks! running adb with sudo did the trick! Strangely, I've not had to do that with android phones.

    • RE: List of Game Engines supporting Ubuntu Touch - Discussion

      Good initiative! Maybe include on each game engine how well they preform on Ubuntu Touch, things that are not working that good etc?

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch on Sony Xperia X

      I've been playing around from time to time with Ubuntu Touch on the Xperia X. Over all it works very well, but a few things that are not really working (and not mentioned not to work above):

      • Vibrator
      • GPS
      • Of the sensors, only accelerometer works
      • A fully charged battery is reported to be at 67%.
      • After pressing the power, it takes a few seconds before I can unlock it. Maybe related to the lack of graphic hw acceleration?

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch on Sony Xperia X

      Success at last! It is apparently very import to unlock at "latest android". I unlocked at Android 6.
      I installed twrp like this:

      sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
      

      It will then always boot into twrp, but I didn't manage to flashing it to the recovery area to work.
      Once booted into twrp, I had to format system, data & cache since the phone got encrypted by default.

      Btw, ip configurtion from console:

      sudo ip addr add 10.15.19.1/24 dev -your device- 
      

      For those of us that don't have a fancy GUI to help you with.

      ubports on xperia x feels a bit sluggish compared to the nexus 5. A look at top, shows that unity8 consumes quite a lot of cpu when doing some ui interaction. I suspect no hw acceleration enabled?

      edit: Some language corrections.
