@pparent I tried it at gps.coordinates.net with Morph and it got to the next street from mine so it seems to work. This is with 24.04 RC on a Fairphone 5.

@pparent said in Signal UT: Signal-Desktop for Ubuntu Touch: @adorsaz Thank's by the way, can you tell us if the "Lock"/"Unlock" trick works for you to make "Enter" and "Backspace" of the virtual keyboard work? Yes if I lock the phone while Signal UT is foreground, these two keys work well after unlock. Then I can switch to other application and go back to Signal UT and it still works without need to do the trick again.

I've succeeded in making a .click package, here is the topic for the app development: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11532/signal-ut-signal-desktop-for-ubuntu-touch

said in Orange screen crash on Vollaphone 22 / Noble 24.04: Seems to stop happening when I disable emergency notifications. Actually it happened again. It seems to happen when I'm in a specific place, and connected to a specific Wifi network. I will avoid connecting to that network to see if it's better.

@pparent Your app is very good and the improvement was made by volla 22 itself: I am now on dev 486 and scrolling on volla has improved considerably.

I've made a new pull request: https://github.com/alefnode/ubports-apps/pull/59 Anyone who would like to join the testing is welcome!

@Fuseteam You can always compile and test the current version of my repo: https://github.com/pparent76/whatsweb It already contains many improvements: Support for notifications Smoother navigation with transitions Smoother keyboard appearance/appearance Avoid opening the keyboard untimely, when navigating Enable GPU acceleration Hide left panel for more pleasant interface Make Emoji panel usable Better graphical integration of navigation buttons ( back in chatview ) Copy a message to clipboard quickly with a long push on message. Screensaver when the app is not foreground: hide the webview to save battery Fix "contact info" panel Fix left menus.

@wally For now I haven't seen any crash yet with the app configured as such. But I do see freezes/crashes in Morph browser while using Google maps, therefore I guess the crash/freeze might be more related to Google Maps intents, than the GPS.

Just to let you know that I changed my mind about this kind of app after reading this document (in french), showing many security problems inherent to any app like this: https://risques-tracage.fr/docs/risques-tracage.pdf

Thank's a lot for the answer and for your work!

Concerning purism, I think they go beyond what I expect in terms of freedom. This post shows it: https://puri.sm/posts/librem5-solving-the-first-fsf-ryf-hurdle/ Not sure why replicant guys are mad. But on a fully free software phone I would definitely not like replicant, I want a real Gnu/Linux! Also they are reproaching Intel's management engine in purism's laptop, saying it would be impossible to disable, but they actually succeed in disabling it: https://puri.sm/posts/purism-librem-laptops-completely-disable-intel-management-engine/ I recently learned about this project which seems very interesting, and allows clear control about non-free software and firmware installed. Could be usefull for a web consultation device on N900 or Sony Xperia Z2: http://postmarketos.org/ https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices I don't know if unity/ubuntu touch could be ported on it at some point.
