RE: Talk to the Non-Geek People
@nero355 the problem is i think that you don't understand other people's needs/wishes. You have your right to your opinion, and to use your phone however you'd like, but others do too. What i fail to understand is that you want to use your phone this way, why take avay the ability from others to use their phones that way. You seem to take aon offencein just suggesting to make it easyer fon newcommers to start understanding how the operating system works, but why? Some people from an untechnicall background, and the current stuff is not really understandable for them. That doesn't mean, they dont wish to learn, but I can speak from experience, it's not easy to start, when you don't even know where to start. Also for many people a computer or phone is a tool, that they must use for daily life, and not a second profession, that they must master to the core, or something that they want to study for hours upon hours just to understand some core functions. I don't think why that should be outrageous, and why UT should be some nieche hardcore stuff, that only the elitest of the elit can use, and why should there be only one proper way to use it. Open mindedness is i think what makes this community so great. I hope you understand my points, and not just call me another heritic. All the best

RE: Interested in Volla ubuntu
@steve Hey! Don't take only my word for it, but i have been using the Volla phone with UT for over a month now. Wether it's good for you or not depends how you want to use it, az a phone, it's totally functional, you can make calls, send texts, or e-mail, take pictures, listen to music and browse the web, as on any normal phone. Appvise it's very limited compared to android and ios, and most webapps are half baked, but just functionall. Theres a PROBLEM with the UI due to the rounded corners, and the v-noch of the camera. There's a fix for the corners here on the forum, the v-noch i couldn't find anything, but it's not the end of the world. I find it a good phone, and if you don't like UT you can easily change it to volla os, that's just a custom andtoid, if I'm not mistaken.

RE: Talk to the Non-Geek People
@nero355 if you don't ever need to use any android or windows apps, than I honestly envy you. For me personally it's a much better compromise to emulate those few apps that i need from those abhorrent os-es on one that i like, than run them for those few apps, and miss out everything else which UT or desktop linux distros posess. You don't need tu use waydroid, but i don't think that the option that it is there is bad. The more options is the better, there's no scenario in my mind, where less choise is better. And yes, currently we are a very small niche community, but that doesn-t mean we should be uninviting to regular andy. And throughout this post you can see that even in this small community peoples opinion can vary, some want android apps, some want native, some want convergence, some better browsing experience etc (just the top of my head). Theres no one and only true and righteous way, and only that, and others are not idiot, simply because they would like different things. The best would be to have all, and to have a choice which to use (i see that is currently not possible, but lets not belitle and insult the other for having a different feature in mind, than oneself)

RE: Interested in Volla ubuntu
@jimpson if I understood well, in the last update the wifi issue has been fixed, at least i haven't seen it since, I haven't met with blutooth problems yet (which doesn't mean, it doesn't exist ), the reboot problem I can relate.

RE: Linphone, jmp.chat, and Telegram
@ubuntutouchluvr for UT Teleports is the telegram app. You can sign in with your registered phone number, it works like as if it was an e-mail address, you don't need the sim card to be in the device. You don't need to do anything in the terminal.

RE: Talk to the Non-Geek People
If less choice means better and more development of Native Apps and Applications then I would say that is the better choice!
But since nobody is held back from making native apps by having waydroid here, I still don't see the reason. I mean if waydroid would sease to exist tomorrow, there still wouldn't be more apps on openstore.
But what if beeing inviting isn't possible at the moment because of the attitude of most people in general ?!
Yes, it is possible. Not in huge numbers, but there are people, who for this reason or that would be interested. And even if it werent, why would it hurt you, if there's a quick noob friendly welcome tutorial only for the possybility? The original purpose of this thread was that. if someone with zero knowlage would just get here, look around, and wouldn't even know where to start, they would rather not at all.
Also you've told very much about your daily use of your phone, which is fine, but it still isn't the only way to use it. some people need banking applications, some only want to use discord. To alvays have two phones at you is uncomfortable and not practical for most people, especially if it is only to preserve some thinked up purity of UT or idk. I need only one android app, and it's shure as hell i won't have a second phone for that on me.
Also ideologies aside, how would a third party app, which you dont have to install ruin the os?

RE: LibreOffice on Ubports phone (survey)
@peter-gamma Hi!
1, I did manage to install libreoffice through libertine container (was the easiest part though)
2, I really would have liked to ude it on my phone, but I have given up long ago
3, I tried writer and calc, with touch forget ever using it, with a bluetooth keyboard and a magnifying glass it's managable, but doesn't worth it. There are much better solutions for viewing docs like document wiewer, and for writer LightP Word processor, though i just use vim in terminal, for text files, or the notes app for shorter ones
4, i don't know about bug reporting, but you wouldn't get much out of it since this isn't supported by either side
Hope it answers your questions sufficiently
