Hi,
Just to share my experience for developping Apps with QtCreator:
( A rewrite from https://gist.github.com/lduboeuf/dcf22607207d5b7abc8ac966d20942ce )

To get Ubuntu.Components recognized by QtCreator:

• If you work on Ubuntu (16.04-18.04) :

## Get public Ubports key
wget -qO - https://repo.ubports.com/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

##add ubports repository
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://repo.ubports.com/ [bionic|xenial] main"

##install Ubuntu.components
sudo apt install qml-module-ubuntu-components

##qml components should be installed in "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/qml"
##set the environnement variable to profile
echo "export QML_IMPORT_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/qml" >> ~/.profile

##reload env or you might need to logout/login
source ~/.profile

• A more generic solution using clickable image:

##run container clickable
docker run -i -t --entrypoint /bin/bash clickable/ubuntu-sdk:16.04-amd64

##in an another terminal, get the container id
docker ps

##copy ubuntu components to local folder
docker cp [container id]:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/qml/ /your/local/directory

##set the environnement variable to profile
echo "export QML_IMPORT_PATH=/your/local/directory" >> ~/.profile

##reload env or you might need to logout/login
source ~/.profile

##stop container
docker stop [container id]

• Or running QtCreator in a docker container based from clickable image:

example here: https://github.com/lduboeuf/ut-qtcreator , use branch "add module" branch for installing also some UT qml modules

EDIT: Now clickable provide a Qtcreator IDE with clickable ide qtcreator command
https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/index.html#code-editor-integrations

Well, my first native app just landed on Openstore. https://open-store.io/app/ttbn.lduboeuf
I've only used QQC2 components and imported needed svg icons from suru theme.
I admit that as a QML beginner, it was sometimes hard to make things work and displayed correctly... color theme is still not that good.

But i'm happy that i can now build for multi os and still use QtCreator.
Thanks for all your examples

@Mystic-X hello, i'm working on it, will land hopefully soon, at least for having a birthday field on the contact app

hi,

I've been working in re-enabling the Sticker feature in messaging-app (MMS).
Here are some screenshots:

To access it, i've decided to put the "Sticker" icon as part as the attachment panel. Before it was inserted just after the "attachment" icon, but find it a bit annoying to access it.

To create a new pack, the "+" button is on the right of the tabs

To import and delete the pack, the buttons are at the bottom-right
To delete only one sticker, long-press on it

Any feedbacks ?

Hi,

As you know, since the beginning of UT, when Cellular Data is off or if any issue regarding the MMS download, the MMS will be lost, no way to retrieve it later and moreover no notification is sent to the user.

The complete feature need some skills that i don't have but as a quick fix, i managed to forward any issues as a normal MMS but empty so that user is at least notified something went wrong.
see:
https://github.com/ubports/nuntium/pull/3, https://github.com/ubports/telephony-service/pull/13, https://github.com/ubports/messaging-app/pull/248
It works!

My question is: should i spent effort to continue doing that "work around" or is someone ready/available to do a more complete scenario (when MMS error: retry or notify, implement deferred download, only download if user allowed to, etc... ) ?

In case it is a better than nothing solution , what would be a good message to display to user ? ( note that it will be received as a sms )

Or if any simpler solution, like just displaying a notification( only one place to maintain )

There is on going call for Anbox improvement if you want to participate:

https://www.gofundme.com/f/anbox-on-ut

as @LarreaMikel says, a Phone that can be easily hacked. A fast browser . I would prefer easy data sync (calendar, contacts, notes,... ) than convergence.

hello all,

Wondering if any up to date overview / architecture schemas available somewhere ?
Last one i know of are from old Cannonical Ubuntu Touch days: https://www.slideshare.net/chihchun/ubuntu-phone-engineering and https://www.slideshare.net/tusharkute/introduction-to-ubuntu-edge-operating-system-ubuntu-touch

We might create some in documentation overview section.

Hi,

As you can see here , i've managed to give a try with the speed dial feature.
Now the UI is like this, do you see any improvements to be done ?:
I've tried with "large" fontSize but too large, here i use the "medium".
The list is a scrollable list from right to left

landscape may cause issue, but i'm waiting for @CiberSheep to finish its work

@keneda You can find the colors used here: https://github.com/ubports/messaging-app/blob/xenial/src/qml/MessageBubble.qml#L90

These are colors from the themes.

@lakotaubp is there any issues filled somewhere for that ?

maybe @vince1171 can give a clue ?

@markatrafik humm already heard the echo issue for some devices, here ?: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/5968/caller-echo?_=1617469387193

@markatrafik you can see logs from the logviewer app, or in .cache/upstart/

Don't see much from dbus
Edit: we can see an error in dbus log. But i personally don't know where to look at Maybe someone know better ?

don't know much about USSD, just saw a fix that have been done few months ago. Do you have logs ( dialer-app or dbus ) ?

If you are adventurous: https://github.com/ubports/messaging-app/pull/260

This will give you some error reporting, nuntium logs should give some info too

@jhackler You will find OTAs Project board here: https://github.com/orgs/ubports/projects

@johnthelearner I don't understand the issue, but VM is not supported afaik. Can't you just delete the message ? ( swipe right on the message bubble, and delete )
