@TomRausner said in spicingup of the phoneapp:

I would like a lot of extra tools in the phoneapp but am not able to program it myself.

Being able to record ones phonetalks within the phoneapp and automatic transfer them to dropbox / icloud / onecloud / etc.

This would violate the other ends privacy and maybe interests.

@advocatux said in Touch 15.04 (rt) 19.10.70 on OPO CM has no Soft-Buttons, intentially ?:

@Pet_HH if I'm understanding you correctly, you're talking about the standard buttons in Android phones? Those doesn't exist in Ubuntu phones.

You get the menu swiping the screen from the left hand side, Home is in the lower part [*] in that menu. On the other hand a "hard code" back button would be really useful.

I'm a BQ E4.5 user for two++ years now and never missed some back button. The swiping of the left hand side menu and swiping of all launched apps is a really nice concept. I always miss this in other phones I tried to use.

@UniSuperBox Hi all, can we have an update about a schedule for an OTA for the 15.04 legacy devices (E4.5)? Thanks for all your work!

@advocatux I was not blaming anybody, not even the folks of BQ to whom I have had good contacts, and even less the volunteers of UBports. Just to make sure.

@abp The company you have or have had a contract with is perhaps BQ.com

I was in the need to recover the WPA secret I configured long ago for some AP used in my company (to configure it in a new device). They are all stored in files with the name of the SSID in the dir /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/

Just in case someone is in the same need as I

Thanks for the information, advocatus. From now, I will follow more closely the schedule of the Q&A meetings to be on track.

Does the project UBports has a clear picture about how many of each of the supported devices run UBports at the moment and what is the prognostic for the future. This should influence such decisions about focus on whatever device/platform, IMHO.

I flashed one of my BQ E4.5 on July 15 to UBports. It says now as version 15.04 (r1). I was highly impressed about how easy this was, despite of a small problem caused by the outdated Ubuntu I used to run the MDTools, I interpret 'r1' as OTA-1 of UBports. How future OTA will be announced and what is more or less the schedule for OTA-2?

Thanks to all of you for your good work moving UT from Canonical to UBports.

I did it manually with the steps from the documentation. I did not wanted more problems with the outdated Ubuntu on my wife's laptop. All my other laptops and netbooks run FreeBSD.

I'm happy now having one of my BQ E4.5 flashed to UBports and know that this was more easy then expected. This means that there is some kind of future for my devices and having an Open Source mobile.

Thank you all for this!

I managed install that OpenStor app, sorry for the noise.
