Intersting informations from Graphene on RCS:

I don't understand that UE lets Google do that. They passed a law to force a private actor to interconnect with competitors like Matix. But there fine with the telephony standard being phagocytosed by a foreign actor like Google.

I think some actors like Matix, alternative Rom providers, Ubports, Jolla, should unite to demand that the service be interconnected with an independent server compatible with FOSS clients.

@domubpkm

Thank you the information!

Since we're in July, MMS is no longer available in Germany. So for now, we're not able to send Photo/Video/Audio without relying to any of these instant-messenger out there.

I think RCS should be a top priority for UT, as it is currently one of its most important missing feature!

I've posted a new version of Touch Piano, that now runs on 24.04-2.x, you can retry your tests with it if you want.

My guess is that at least part of the packets included into the bundle could be removed to use the system libraries on 24.04-2.0, but I will wait for official Qt6 app guidelines before doing that.

That's why recorder app works for me on my volla 22 and 24.04-2.x today daily ? because the app was installed before ?

The microphone permission system might be buggy whether or not you had the app installed before migrating to 24.04-2.x .

It could be something a bit like this

@pparent I like Seagull very much. You could write it with an i, like Sigull

Or "Sigul" with a single "l" sounds nice!

For now "Sigul UT" to keep continuity and recognizability , I might later drop the "UT"!

Thank your for your message!

The word sigma has some not very neutral meanings tied to it these days, as in alpha, beta and sigma males. I would not go for this name, unless you want the app to be associated with the manosphere.

I did not know about that, but then do you mean we should accept to not use greek letters anymore? Should we stop talking about Alpha and Beta versions of software? (exemple 24.04-2.0 Beta )

I would like something close enough to "Signal UT" so that we can mentally link it and know this is the same app. And I don't really want to add a reference to an animal I prefer it to stay on a neutral reference or a reference to privacy.

Other possibilities:

• "Sigilo UT": In spanish it means confidential, but I fear people don't know how to prononce it.
• "Sigla UT": Sigla is spanish for "acronym"
• "Sigmax UT"
• "Signeo UT"

Any preference?

I've noticed a bug that is a bit problematic:

I cannot allow a QML5 app to have access to the microphone.

For example if I install the Recorder app, without previous install, I cannot record anything, because I cannot allow it to access to the microphone, no authorization dialog shows up.

I guess the same may apply to position permission.

I've been informed that I should rebrand "Signal UT" for Trademark concerns.

I propose "Sigma UT". What do you think?

( Also I will give informations on how to rebrand the app to Signal once installed, for those who want to do that on their own and for their own device, for aesthetic reasons only, and knowing that this is not and official Signal app provided by Signal Technology Foundation, as already mentioned in the description of the app. )

Thank you!

@peat_psuwit

Thank you so much! I can confirm that:

• 24.04-2.0 Beta2 works fine on my testing device: OnePlus Nord N10 5G

• The keyboard problem on XWayland apps is gone, and furthermore there is no more an additional "X" icon in the left system tray, and the application icon appears instead, which is really great! ( Although the status indicator, i.e the small dot at the right or left of the icon, is not always working well, but this is some detail )

• The bookmark apps are working well for me, and benefiting from latest webengine, which is absolutely great! I've tested also BlaBlacar. @djac Do you still have the problem?

I think 24.04-2.0 will really be great, and I'm very happy about it! Thank you very much!

@Ida_

That's great news!!

I update my sony Xperia X with ubuntu touch 24.04-2.
But I have a problem with the "bookmarks app". They no longer works.
What I see : a blue loading bar ,then a black screen (or white if i m not in dark mod).
I found it with blablacar, but after some tests, it seems that include all " bookmarks app"

I have also a display problem with morph web browser :
nothing is displayed online, but parameters are usable.
Others browsers works normaly (merezhyvo & ufirefox)

Do anyone else have the problem with the "Boorkmark" apps problem? ( With apps based on webapp-container ). If confirmed it seems to me an important problem.

What about apps created manually with Webber?

@bunt7

Try to switch VoLTE off, and see if it works better for you or not!

But you can still use 4G/5G with VoLTE off!

@bunt7

No no, the first screenshot here:

https://docs.ubports.com/fr/latest/userguide/dailyuse/volte.html

It is possible as well that your device is not compatible with VoLTE, if so check with your operator that it is still compatible with phones that do not have VoLTE enabled.

@DJac

Merci,

Donc ça veut dire que toutes les vraies Webapps ne fonctionne plus (Signal UT et Whatsnew n'en font pas partie, c'est des apps electrons)?

Tu peux essayer aussi des apps de type "Signet" d'autres auteurs comme:

https://open-store.io/app/myutforum.josele13
https://open-store.io/app/duolingo.manuelboe
https://open-store.io/app/google-maps-unofficial.chromiumos-guy

Si c'est le cas, ça serait super de le rapporter ici, car ça parait être un gros problème:

@gpatel-fr

Well yes maybe, but I also osberve that when restarting the modem the VoLTE connexion often does not re-establish properly while the Internet data connexion works fine after restarting the modem.

It also happens to me from time to time that people get directly to my answering machine, and I don't get the call. Usually I don't consider that as a big problem for myself as I can always call back. But it's true that since switching to VoLTE calls reliability has decreased.

I think it would be very useful to open a bug report here:

@bunt7

Did you try to disable VoLTE in the setings?

(Cellular > Operator > VoLTE)
