I'm using offline gpx-tracks often for riding with my motorcycle. I'm planing a nice route at home, export it to a GPX-Track and load the track with PureMaps or uNav (it's also capable of importing GPX-Tracks).
Together with OSMScoutServer you have a nice offline-navigator to follow the tracks you have planned or someone else send you.

RE: Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3
@Vlad-Nirky I cannot find bzip2 on my spare device (24.04-1.2), but this week the download of additional maps still worked for me.

RE: emergency cell broadcasts need an alarm
@lduboeuf No problem, we can be happy that someone is looking at it. It's your free time that you invest in things like that

RE: emergency cell broadcasts need an alarm
@lduboeuf For me there was never a tone when a CB alert arrived, no matter if I was in silent or not.

RE: click on notification bubble
For calendar it works not only for tapping on the bubble, it also works if you swipe down the notification-indicator and tap on the notification. Then the calendar-app opens and shows you the event.
I think that should be the normal way and what users are expecting from the system. Otherwise you have to check from which application the notification comes from and then open the drawer search for the app and open it manually to see the whole message or whatever. -
RE: click on notification bubble
@gpatel-fr @mihael I've made a quick test with my Volla22 on 24.04-1.3: I set a calendar-event with notification and closed the calendar app. On the beginning of the event the notification comes up and when I tap on the bubble the calendar app starts and showed me the event. So it still seems to work for some applications on 24.04...

RE: click on notification bubble
@gpatel-fr I still have my E4.5 in fully working condition. Maybe I'll test with a spare SIM-card if the notifications are working like expected

RE: click on notification bubble
I guess that it has never worked like that though.
I'm not 100% sure, but AFAIR it was working like this in earlier UT-Versions (16.04, maybe 20.04)

RE: Smooth Edges (name pending) - Let's Fix the Bugs That Drive You Mad
Yesterday all of our SIP in Germany stated, that they will shutdown MMS at the end of June. So it's important to have an alternative as RCS for people who need this kind of service.

RE: [Comment] indicator panel in emergencies
one of the solutions for me would be to reduce the amount of indicators, in my opinion keyboard, turnscreen and files could easily be grouped to reduce the amount of menus and there for make it easier to navigate.
so its shiny, fun when playing but less practical when doing daily activities
That's exactly what I already said in the Smooth Edges Thread (and it was not only me). The idea behind the indicators is still cool in some situations, but in daily use there are too many indicator-menus which are also too narrow and not good to read when you're outside.
In my opinion the ideal solution would be to have a "quick-start-indicator" (are call it whatever) which is customizable. Then everybody can select the items which are useful for his/her usecase.
If the customization is too hard too handle, it would be good to have a static "quick-start-indicator" with the most wanted switches, e.g. WIFI, Cellular, Flightmode, Torch, keep Screen on. -
RE: Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3
@gpatel-fr I've searched a bit and there is aleady a bugreport for that (it was already filled some days ago for the daily channel).
I've linked the thread to this bugreport. -
RE: Call for testing: Ubuntu Touch 24.04-1.3
I've asked one of the developers in the relevant area to look into this. Although, given that this is a cosmetic issue, it might not be fixed before 24.04-1.3 is released.
I have updated this morning from 1.2 stable to 1.3 stable and have the same issue. Is there already a bugreport for that? All other things seems to work without any issues

RE: Notch Hack won't install
@muskist Have you done a reflash with bootstrap and wipe userdata? I'm not sure, but afaik with this option your device will be reformatted and there should be enough space for this action after it. But be careful, ALL data on your device will be lost with this reflash, so be sure to have a backup of the data you wan't to keep.
As an other option you could try to free a bit of space, maybe it's enough to complete the notch hax. Try these commands:
sudo mount -o remount,rw / sudo apt clean sudo apt autopurge sudo mount -o remount,ro /After that check your space again with "df -h"

RE: Notch Hack won't install
Maybe another FP4-user can check on his device if the root-filesystem is really only 2.9G. It seems to me very small and on my Volla22 it's more than the double of it.
-
RE: Notch Hack won't install
@muskist No, there is no space left, your root-filesystem ("/") is 100% in use, and that's why apt update and/or apt install fails. But I don't know why your root-fs is so small, on my Volla22 it's 7,1G and 2,9G are used, so there is enough space for thing like that.
AFAIK the porter of your device has to declare the size of the filesystems. -
RE: Notch Hack won't install
@muskist So the script is running fine and has already downloaded the missing packages. After that, it fails because of missing free space on your device. What does "df -h" show about your space?
-
RE: Notch Hack won't install
@muskist It would be helpful to see the original messages, e.g. with a screenshot. Was there a question about the root-password?
Alternatively you can use the Lomiri Plus Essentials from the Ambot Installer from the Openstore. With that app you also have support for notches/rounded corners ans so on. -
RE: Working VoLTE reports, share your experience
@gpatel-fr For me it's the same like @gandalf said: There is no ringtone while dialing for every call I'm making. No matter if it's the same carrier, an other carrier or a fixed number. Even calling service numbers from my provider doesn't produce a ringtone.
