RE: Why are there so few UB ports on modern Samsung devices?
@GermanAizek
I think that this is answered somewhere else here on the forum and if I don't remember it wrong, most of the samsung phones has locked bootloader which makes it impossible to port the phone over to another os. -
RE: Stuck in downloading the last file
@_moh_eb_
Have you tried to use usb2 ports and cable on pc?
Usb3 is known to cause problems during installation.
if you don't have access to usb2 ports on pc, you could use a usb2 hub instead. -
RE: Accessibility option for disabled people
@doliwa
Have you tried the things that I suggested? -
RE: Accessibility option for disabled people
Hi @doliwa
There is some things that you could do and that I hope is enough for your user case.
Here is my ideas:
First install UT tweak tool from the app store. In this app you are able to change the scaling/size of icons, text, interface and more.
You are able in some apps to zoom in/out by using two fingers, example is the message app.
I hope that this is enough for you -
Treeminder
Hi
I found this little tool on Sourceforge:https://sourceforge.net/projects/treeminder/
It is a basic tool similar to the mindmapping app Freemind(Freeplane), and it is written in javascript.
This how I did to launch it on my UT-phone:
Extract the archive in a suitable place.
Copy the file 'index.html'
Open a web-browser and use paste in the URL.
Hit enter and it should launch.
When you save a mindmapp it will be stored in the same location where you extracted Treemind. You could move the save-file and open it from the new location.
Bookmark the URL for easier access next time you want to use Treeminder -
RE: No ubuntu boot.....
Hi @MrT10001
What usb port do you have on your pc?
I had the same problem that have been mentioned by other users in here about the phone not updating instead it entered the recovery mode instead. I tried to change from devel to stable, after that the phone got stuck on google boot screen. I did a lot of thing to get the phone working, and a few stupid once too . When I tried to reinstall the phone it was picked up by the installer but it couldn't reinstall UT. I could install android on it by running the flash-all script in the factory image. Then I remembered something about only using usb2 port on your pc when installing UT. The pc that I was using to install UT had only usb3 ports. So I picked up my old Lenovo laptop that only have usb2 ports. Now the installer worked without any hiccups. -
RE: Big thanks!
Hi
I am highjacking this thread just to say a BIG THANKS for the hard work on Ofono. It has been a long time since I tried to send a mms. I have Sony Xperia X(FOCAL Stable) and Google Pixel 3A(FOCAL Devel) as daliy drivers in my family and to my surprise mms is working, both sending and receiving. THIS have never fully worked with my carrier, EVER. So once agian a BIG THANKS -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Here is another post from Oren & CO:
Also they will likely recieve another few package updates in the next few days when OTA3 comes out, so these are test images until that is fully released (UBPorts will announce it). Then they are officially "beta" upstream images, before our OTA-upgradable final version.
Edit:
From Oren & CO:
i am waiting to upload this to the ubports + pine64 wikis until OTA3 comes out -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Hi
Here is a little note from Oren & CO over att Telegram:https://ci.ubports.com/job/focal-hybris-rootfs-arm64/job/master/
These are our images, ready for your usage, building daily. I’m still figuring out how we will have these distributed. I’ll be updating my gitlab page, the pine64 wiki, and the ubports wiki in the next few days pointing to here, most likely.
You can select last successful artifacts or click on the “+View” button, then click to download the .raw.xz file of your respective device. then flash it in the same way as our downstream images.
Please note: these are still r/w and still have to be upgraded through apt. However, you should notice multiple improvements with ContentHub, the modem, and even GPS support. We are actively working on r/o and system-image updates, you can follow the progress in this chat.
Issues/other comments:
-
network + modem seem to die on the pinephone pro when put to sleep. sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager ofono will get them back on, but we believe this is a problem with the kernel. We are actively working on this too.
-
external monitor support is still poor, and camera is not working yet. Again, we are working on this.
-
almost all of contenthub works. However, some things seem to require apparmor profile updates. For example, you can now correctly upload images to telegram, and you can download them from telegram, but trying to have the file open the downloaded file will still fail. You have to locate it manually.
-
GPS should be working OOTB, but in reality it seems to be acting slightly funny. If it does not work right away, we have found switching to our branch that fixed it sudo ubports-qa install focal_-PR_location-service_27, then sudo ubports-qa uninstall focal-_PR_location-service_27 right after to remove it, it seems to bring GPS online
-
PineTab2 WiFi has new, safer one-liners! sudo systemctl start pinetab2-wifi-enable + reboot to turn it on, sudo systemctl start pinetab2-wifi-disable + reboot to turn it back off. These are not persistent, so you can’t systemctl enable them.
Finally, I could not have got this far without @Luigi311 + @fuseteam, huge thanks to both of them for helping me take this project on

Yes @arubislander is right:

Here is the links you need to put ubuntu touch 15:04 on your tablet. After installing this, the ubports installer should work. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Hi
Here is little something from Oren & CO on telegram:Oren, [2023-09-19 16:41]
Everything except the externaldisplay stuff has been mergedOren, [2023-09-19 16:45]
That means that in theory, ppl can update their devices with apt and it will install rotation :))) pinetab2 will have to delete its .yaml.dpkg-old, but other than that, it’s all upstreamwill probably make a new release today, next one can be camera/gps/OTA upstreaming :DDDD

RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Here is a longer answer from Oren regarding the Risc-V versions:
oklopfer — 08/21/2023 11:39 PM
@Luigi311 cant find you on the UT telegram but how has your PTV experience been? do you think its in a state where we could consider a port yet?Pine64 Protocol Droid — 08/21/2023 11:41 PM
[M] <luigi311> It’s been pretty good. The only things that I would say are show stoppers are suspend and especially for UT is the qt web browser issue.
[M] <luigi311> Might be fine to do a rhino port thoughoklopfer — 08/21/2023 11:43 PM
lol morph is based on qtweb so thats definitely an issue xD is it a code issue that can be fixed or a full hardware issue?
dont know why it would be hardware but who knows, the bes2600 is crazy
yeah i would love to do a rhino port but then i would have to pay for it if its for UT first then it can be coveredPine64 Protocol Droid — 08/21/2023 11:52 PM
[M] <luigi311> It should be a code issue since riscv wasn’t adding into chromium until Jan this year and qt web is nowhere near that version. Suse has a potential patch but doesn’t seem to be working but fishwaldo mentioned trying to look into it.
[M] <luigi311> If he does get the patch working though I’m not sure if UT will accept the patch any time soon though since that could potentially affect every device and might cause issue with their only browser loloklopfer — 08/22/2023 12:18 AM
and so we wait…Fishwaldo — 08/22/2023 12:46 AM
Yah. It’s a very intrusive patch that will never get accepted by upstream. You might have better luck with qt6 but other areas it breaks on riscv currently
It also requires a ton of patches to things like Mesa, and fffmeg etc. (of which all patches are based on old versions). If you have no problem using older releases of Mesa then it should be ok to do a port. If you have to stick to a particular version, it’s going to be a big porting effort especially for Mesa. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
@Keneda
Oren wrote that they don't have access to a Risc-V model and he didn't think that there will be any image for it in a long time due the amont of work they have to put into the arm versions that they have. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
@Keneda
Sorry but there have been no discussions about the Risc-V version on telegram. I drop a question about it
Both the Pinetab and the Pinetab 2 gets updates too. There are 3 images in the linked page above one for Pinetab and one for Pinetab 2 the third one is a unified image for both pinephones. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Hi

RE: Ubuntu Touch on Pine64
Hi
I have been tinkering with my Pinephone CE Ubports edition and realized that I have written that you needed adb and fastboot on your pc. This is wrong, you need to install it on your PINEPHONE. This is because of the modem is like a computer and it talks adb and fastboot. I have changed the first post and added/changed the info regarding this. Sorry if this caused any headaches.
