webrtc with voice and video.

@gimenez
It looks great in my opinion. It does give a good oversight of all major features and subjects. It is easy to understand even for non geeks. Good job.

Correction to my previous post. It is true that I don't lose connection while I am in reach of my router. Once I lose that connection because I leave home, my phone will not connect to or find any wifi signal unless I reboot my phone. It seems that it just does not bother to search for possible connections.

@slyvan, I love unity7 and I love lomiri. Such a clever and intuitive design.

Merry Christmas everyone. Stay clear of Covid. See you all next year.

I switched over to rc channel. Wifi seems to be stable after 24 hours usage, thanks fore the advice.

@lduboeuf said in "UbuntuTouch" name:

I remember a talk on AppDev channel about UbuntuTouch naming issue, can someone please explain me how it goes ?
If so are there any new name choosen ?

Google results for Ubuntu Touch:
About 49.900.000 results (0,55 seconds)
Why would you want to change the name?

@Rebecca58 "Video Chat" (Telegram ,Teleports - or Morph via WebRTC) - Ineed it badly, that means daily.

@domubpkm said in PinePhone:

@PINE64 Thank you for that clarification. Yes, it was mainly to find out if there would be the special edition with 3GB RAM and more storage. And there would be at least one customer (me! ). As for the units that will be put on the market, the number is interesting.

Make it two!!! and I believe many thousands more.

I definately will buy a pinephone in March. I have been using the Aquaris E5 and N5 for years now as my daily driver. They have never let me down so far. Yes I need "line", "skype" and "whatsapp" on the phone but that is ,sort of, promised for sometime this year. Ubports may be the most important project for Linux.

@Opolork
The layout of the indicators are one of the best design features of the ubuntu touch OS. All required settings in one single location. Loving it.

@Thatoo
What about "Ring" now called "Jamie" by "Savoir Faire Linux" https://jami.net ... it is open source and runs on all major OS's including Android and IOS. Since there it is also compiled for Ubuntu, it might not be too much of an effort to port it to UT.

So true @Josele13. And Ubuntu Touch has already established a name for itself.

Swiping from the center down could activate an extra bar at the top of the screen making all (possible) navigation elements visible. After a few seconds It would disappear again by itself. Back, forward, up, down. Depending on the application. Just a thought that went through my head.

Since last update, my WiFi connection gets lost in unpredictable intervals. Sometimes I can recover my WiFi by toggling the network slider off and on. In battery settings WiFi is enabled. When the connection goes down it is impossible to switch to System Settings. Sometimes it needs a restart to get my WiFi settings back.

Does anyone have similar problems? I read about something that sounds like it could be my problem, but that was in 15.04.

Any help is appreciated.

An interesting vlog about linux on phones in general, with Ubports and Ubuntu Touch in particular.

No thanks, I already own an Android device, that's the reason I'm switching. I'm looking forward to a convergent device running the same OS and software on any computer, with the ability to run regular desktop programs when connected to a large screen.

@Ingo with the xrandr command you are able to set the borders of the output. The command xrandr displays the output device. In my case it's "HDMI-A-0".
So i type in the terminal:
xrandr --output HDMI-A-0 --set underscan on
xrandr --output HDMI-A-0 --set "underscan hborder" 59 --set "underscan vborder" 32
Perhaps this will work in your case as well.

A Merry Christmas to all of you!
