Can you do

journactl -r | grep 99captive_portal

?

@projectmoon

Ok well I don't know, are you testing with a specific wifi network with captive portal? Does it support RFC 8910 and RFC 8908, or is it legacy? Did you try with other wifi networks?

Ps: You can also retry with mobile data disabled, sometimes it's better.

@projectmoon

What do you mean, do you get the notification when you connect to the wifi network with captive portal?

(You should not open the app from the app grid, it is useless, it will open when you click on the notification, in the notification panel, like in the video)

@projectmoon

With the latest version of the script you need to install this app first:

https://github.com/pparent76/Captiveviewer-UT/releases/tag/0.1.0

Then install the latest version of the script, and chmod +x the script, and reboot

https://gitlab.com/pparent/lxc-android-config/-/blob/main/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99captive_portal?ref_type=heads

Then you should get a notification when you connect to a wifi with captive portal, and if you click the notification it will open the captive portal app.

I've written a workaround script that I'm currently testing, that detects an IP loss on the interface and automatically reinitialize the modem when it happens. For now it seems to work quite well, and even seems to have a positive impact on VoLTE connexion. I will test it for a few days, and if everything goes well, I will publish it here.

@kdb7

Ok but could you record the screen when it fails to import the file with:

https://open-store.io/app/screenrecorder.ubports

because I fail to see what could be happening.

@kdb7

Can you tell which version of UT are you using, and post a video screenshot? because on all the phones that I own it works fine, so I would need to see visually whats happens on your phone.

@kdb7

You need to open file directly from Signal app, by clicking on the "+" in the bottom right hand corner of a chat, and then select the gallery app, to select the file to import.

It's true that there is currently something that should not be: Signal appears in the application grid in content Hub, as an option to export an image to, it should not, this does not work that way, only the other way around import the picture from the signal app. I will correct that in next revision.

@ChromiumOS-Guy

I'm not sure to understand your message? You want to give me a script about what?

Thank's!

New video about Whatsapp on Ubuntu touch, and my app Whatsnew.

@Moem Very nice, could be very cool if Signal Destkop, hence Signal UT, would become a primary client, with no need to link it to an iOS or Android device!

Thank's for sharing!

@developerbayman

I have a question: Is there a reason you're not publishing your apps in the openstore? Are you waiting for them to be ready?

I've just released version 0.1.7, that adapts to changes upstream that broke the app. I also made a few changes to be more resilient to changes upstream without needing to update the app, this can be further improved. I also updated electron so that now the chromium engine used is in version 144.

Let me know if it works well for you!

@gpatel-fr

The version v1.35.5-1 of the Min Browser, is now compatible with UT 24.04-1.3, can you confirm it solves the problem for you?

(I will also publish very soon a new version of Rocket.Chat, so that all my apps are compatible with UT 24.04-1.3

EDIT: I've also published a new version of Rocket.Chat, that is compatible with 24.04-1.3 )

For what it's worth, this bug should be solved in 24.04-1.3 (no need to apply a patch script: the sense that the placeholder does not remain open in background anymore). It could still be a nice fix to avoid that it uses a lot of CPU in the first place, as it could possibly allow for faster starts of the apps.

@gpatel-fr said:

The only regression I noticed is that Min (the Chromium browser hatched by @pparent) crashes as soon as I try to enter an URL (the OSK displays but Min disappears and only the 'X' icon stays in the launcher

Yes I know I need to make a new realease to fix that, I will do that next week. It concerns also Rocket.chat. I will make a new release next week, so that those 2 apps work with 24.04-1.3 .

This is linked to this bug: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri/-/work_items/177#note_3172037315

But I implement a workaround inside my apps.

@domubpkm

I will soon try to write a workaround script, but when I have time.

Ps: An imporant feature for me would be to be able to enable/disable notifications globally. Because right now if I don't want to get Whatsapp notification, it is a problem if I have greeline installed.

Ps2 : I see that Whatsapp recognizes greeline as an Android client, not a Whatsapp web client.

@brenno.almeida

So I've tested the app! I think it is great!

There are great features that whatsnew does not have and probably will not have anytime soon: notifications when the app is closed, the possibility to consult messages online, the app is way more fluid and has a "native app" feeling that whatsnew does not have (Although some conversations take time to load in greenline), and it starts up incredibly fast.

There are also features that are lacking in comparaison to whatsnew (like calls, sending and reading audio messages, editing messages, deleting messages, transferring messages, archived conversations, polls, and I guess a lot of advanced features that whatsapp web has )

I think the two are complementary. Also I think it's always good to have two alternatives, because both of them can break at any moment when Whatsapp make changes, so it's good to have two of them.

I hope to see it soon in the openstore, I will mention your app in my upcoming video!

Thank you very much for your work!

Here is what looks like a new prototype:
