Update: I've created a PPA with the installer: https://launchpad.net/~mardy/+archive/ubuntu/ubports-tools Now I'll slowly add more devices

@marekf Hi, I have installed the mentioned kernel on BQ E5HD. I haven't been able to test it much yet. The fm radio application (without internet) works

@mardy The Ukw radio for Ubuntu Touch seems to be set too high in sensitivity. There should be an option somewhere where you can change this. So some stations that are below the level do not run at all. I live in the countryside so it would be good to keep the squelch of the app as low as possible. I would recommend the value 10 if the app can do that.

Hello @mardy, the FM Radio App is one that I have received great value from. Unfortunately it does not work with Focal. Do you still maintain it? If so, would it be possible to make a version that works on Focal too? Thank You for you work so far.

@domubpkm Many devices just don't have the support needed for video playback or video recording, I'm aware thats an issue with the OP3 and PinePhone, rather than a problem with the MiTubo app, this may also be the case with the Volla phone.

@danfro not working on my FP4, but I didn't investigate much

@mardy for now I tested E5 on dev channel: Music plays Notification of incoming mail plays while music is playing without issue I posted some issues in the MR comments Tomorrow, Arale

@mardy said in Selling a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 with UT preinstalled: Hi all! I have a spare Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, 3/32GB version (codename: lavender), which I bought as second hand and which is in very good conditions. I cleared the userdata partition and installed UT on it. This is one of the best supported phones by Ubuntu Touch. The phone characteristics can be read here at Xiaomi's site. I'm selling this for 80 EUR + shipping. Xiaomi devices are rather popular here in Russia, so if I see that there is interest I might be able to buy more second-hand (or even new) devices and resell them with UT preinstalled. Write me if you are potentially interested. Ciao, Alberto You can sell your phone through an ad on the Internet to another person without any problems, even if you only have your charger and phone left. In Russia, phones are usually already unlocked.

I don t have this device either, and I am not a porter as well, but I appreciate your work very much. Every contribution to the Ubuntu Touch community is helpful.

@cibersheep And it even work on the Pinephone

@mardy Yes, this is not a regression caused by the new media hub. This behavior was present from the start.

@dobey said in Language packs as click packages: call to arms!: @mardy Are we discussing language packs as clicks, or a more general solution to "what apps are installed by default" when flashing a phone? Because those seem like two separate things, and we should not use one of them as a reason to do another thing (or to not do some other different thing instead), I think. I'm not using one as a reason to do the other, but rather I'm explaining how I imagine this evolving into, to convince you that we can get a nice user experience even with selectable language packs. I also disagree with the idea of anecdotal argumentation of well, it's a waste in the rootfs for me, so why should it be there for others. I think it would be best to not go down this route. There are plenty of things in the rootfs which are meaningless for me too. And what I'm suggesting is that, if those things could easily be installed as clicks, and if doing so would save a considerable amount of space, then it's something we might want to try out. It's a question on whether it's worth the effort. I did start with language packs because I thought that it would be an easy pick, since they are data-only. And so far it looks like it's something easily doable. [...] Maybe having langpacks is something we will need to do in the future. But I think right now, we should not rush into this as a solution to the problems we have, as there are plenty of larger concerns at the moment. And if we rush into it, we will be stuck for a long time, even if we discover some other solutions to whatever problem this is meant to solve, instead. I'm not requesting that people spend their time on this. If @bhdouglass told me that he has no time to review the changes I'll eventually submit to the Open Store, then I certainly wouldn't force him, but it looks like he likes the idea as well. And I'll try not to rush: I do want to see a good implementation of this (especially because, as I said, I plan to apply a similar scheme for navigation data, later on). Could I spend my time in a better way? Probably, but I'm doing this as a hobby in my spare time, so I tend to work on those things that interest me first

Got "generic Cerddav" working too, but for that one there is not any check and feedback when you create your account.

Wow thats amazing! You are one of the first people contributing to the PPA A warm welcome! BR Florian

@UniSuperBox Good job Dalton, thanks for writing that up!
