Hello everyone,
I posted an idea in Spotify Community (https://community.spotify.com/t5/Idea-Submissions/Ubuntu-Touch-Create-App-for-Ubuntu-Touch/idi-p/4813087), asking for a Spotify App in Ubuntu Touch.
Other people posted the same idea in 2014 and 2016, but they were closed due to lack of votes.
Therefore, I encourage Spotify users (or anyone interested) to vote this one 
Thank you!
@Flohack Done! Thanks for your incredible work!
I would like to add ask.moe from my side. My idea was actually to send a patch/pull request to morph code, I suppose it would not be really difficult, but I still have to dive into the code and I do not have much time... Actually, if I find the time I could add your search engine as well 
@branja6 I can tell you than I currently have 4-5 android apps right now through Anbox in my Nexus 5, and they are slow but usable.
Downside of it are mainly battery usage and that you have to find the proper .apk file for each app that you want (and some of them do not work).
Welcome!!
Hi all,
I would like to run a simple bash script just after booting my Nexus 5. I tried to use cron job or rc.local file (saw it in a couple of tutorials) but I am having problems when editing these files. Could it be because it is a read-only file system? Is there any other way to run scripts on boot then?
Thank you in advance!
@Rebecca58 Yes, you can! As I said, I have it on mine (OTA-12)

@jezek wow! thank you very much, you found it in a moment. Do yo know (or anyone) if it is possible to send patches instead of pull requests? (I do not have a Github account, and if possible I would like to avoid creating one). Thanks!

UTPass, which uses (gnu/linux) pass under the hood. Works as a client (cannot add pwds on UT) but works well and is compatible with pass, which is awesome.
@arubislander Good point! I tried it, but to no avail u.u anyway, thank you for the tip!
@Emphrath Of course! Here you have:
#!/bin/bash
# Set variables
filelist_dir=/home/phablet/Documents/anbox
bk_dir=/home/phablet/Documents/anbox/bk
files_dir=/home/phablet/.local/share/applications
filelist=list_files.txt
# Delete dir bk if exists and create it again
rm -rf $bk_dir
mkdir $bk_dir
# Get string of files to mv from filelist
files=$(cat $filelist_dir/$filelist)
# Append files_dir to each file
files_to_mv=$(for file in $files; do echo $files_dir/$file; done)
# Move all files from files_dir into bk_dir
for file in $files_to_mv; do mv $file $bk_dir; done
This file is called desktop-delete.sh, and reads a file called list_files.txt that contains all apps to hide. In my case, it contains the following (see .local/share/applications for all apps):
anbox-com-android-inputmethod-latin.desktop

I have both files contained in this path: Documents/anbox. The file delete-desktop.sh should be executable (do chmod a+x Documents/anbox/delete-desktop.sh).
Having all this, is just a matter of executing the script (./Documents/anbox/delete-desktop.sh) and should work fine!
Hi again, I am sorry but I tried exactly what you said and does not work 
I think that maybe anbox is started after unity8 as well, and the script may be run before anbox launches?
I am not really sure, but thank you very much anyway for your time!
@dobey It is just to hide android (anbox) apps from the drawer; I have a script that I run everytime that I boot the phone, and would like to automate this.
How exactly does this .local/share/upstart work? There is no upstart existing script or folder as I see it. And how should I call the script from there? Sorry, I am a little bit lost Thanks!
