I've created the Translations category on the forum. If there becomes too much noise in the category we can consider subcategories. Until then, let's see what happens.

Would it be a good idea to create a forum category for translations? This forum also supports converting posts to wiki format which could be a boon to "using the right word everywhere".

Come one, come all, for the latest in UBports Community Update goodness! This week we'll be taking a look at 16.04's state and reporting a bit on Halium. We'll also show off a small enhancement that makes 15.04 just a little bit better.

You can check out the live event for a live countdown here. We start at 1800 UTC on July 22nd!

We'd love to answer some of your questions. If you have any, feel free to post them below!

That's an excellent question, and it's every day for us. :)

We have some Canonical and ex-Canonical devs helping us out. There are also a few on the Yunit team. They're pretty excited to continue.

The 5X is already being worked on by the Halium team, but is not generally recommended in the community due to its flash hardware defect. I've got one and I'm waiting for it to die in the next few months.

You will need to unlock the phone from the network before doing anything else. You will also need to unlock the bootloader. If you can do those things, you should be fine.

Just remember, though, that porting Ubuntu Touch is not easy or for the faint of heart. What device are you thinking of using?

Looks like the confinement on the terminal prevents it from doing useful things like switching channels. I've updated the documentation to present a couple of known working methods.

No, I was speaking to the one who created this thread.

https://github.com/ubports/ubports-touch/issues/53 for the long boot time

The long hangs could be caused by a long-standing apport bug, feel free to report that.

@UKPhil, regarding fixing existing bugs, the current Ubuntu Touch as we know it is based on Ubuntu 15.04. We are not planning on building off of this platform. Sorry that it's unstable, that's what we inherited. We are moving to a supported base of 16.04.

Alternator, have you considered mending the bridge you burned instead of registering new accounts?

Good to hear you were finally able to get it working! Also incredibly interesting that you were able to find that little import function... I will investigate further
