So, i have followed the guide on the website how to port and i created the local manifests and everything, but when i went to run source build/envsetup.sh, it didn't return my device. I have put the proprietary blobs to a few locations in the vendor folder like: "n8000", "samsung", "n80xx" but nothing works. Thank you for any help.

Hi,
Just wanted to mention that a nice and easy addition to Ubuntu touch would be wifi captive portal via RFC 8910 and RFC 8908.
It is actually very simple:
1- When you get a DHCP lease in the wifi interface look for option 114
2- If there is a URL in option 114 it's an API, just make a simple HTTP GET request on this URL (no parameters or header)
3- The result will be a json, if it contains "captive"="true" and has an "user-portal-url" field then we should just open this "user-portal-url" in the browser and it will allow the user to authenticate to the captive portal and use the wifi!Really I think that's any easy addition, I may try to contribute this inside the OS when I have time.
Ps: Adding a simple script in /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ to do that should do the trick I guess.

Anyone know of a way to forward SMS messages to 2nd phone number, when main number is unavailable (weak cell, airplane mode, etc) ?
After many weeks of asking questions (here and Google) regarding voice calls over WiFi, considering software solutions and mixed (hardware / software) solutions, I finally had the sense to ask about voice call forwarding to second phone which has functional WiFi calling. Google said 'possible'. Carrier said 'we support that'. [just requires 2nd phone line, and phone, and remembering to keep it charged. tedious but workable].
I set it up & tested it. Seems to work !So, now the last critical problem is no SMS over WiFi, when cell signal is too weak.
My requirement is communication with 'average' user, who has only OEM android or ios messaging installed on their phone. That rules out asking everyone I need to communicate with to add and learn new apps.
Asking google about that, answer was that any SMS forwarding solution would be linked to WiFi calling.
Can anyone shed light on options here ? or UT plans or progress (testing status, etc) ?

Can anyone shed light on options here ? or UT plans or progress (testing status, etc) ? Standard SMS can’t be conditionally forwarded like calls when your phone is unreachable—carrier forwarding usually only works for voice, not texts. Your best options are enabling Wi-Fi Calling + SMS over Wi-Fi (if your carrier/phone supports it), or using services like Google Voice or call/text forwarding apps that mirror SMS to another device. Otherwise, your antenna solution (or adding a signal booster) is the most reliable workaround without changing how others contact you. -
Hello everyone,
I figured I would make videos about Ubuntu Touch, to contribute spreading the word.
I'm thinking about making videos to present my applications, reviews/demonstration/tests of the system in general, and possibly videos where I explain why I'm using Ubuntu Touch, and how I got to it.
Here is my first video presenting the application Maps exporter:
English version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GR0eqz7wpyM
French version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOJkiSa28SsThis is still quite experimental so if you have feedback on how to improve the videos for the next time feel free to do so!

Hello,
I would like to know if many people are having trouble connecting to Duck.ai through the Morph app. Is there any possibility of restoring the functionality? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi everyone,
I have a couple of strange issues happening with the Messaging app.
These issues are only happening with one contact.
When I attempt to send a message to this contact it seemingly doesn't send on my end. On my end it's greyed out with the blue progress wheel and seemingly in an infinite "sending" state, even after message has been received by the recipient.
On the contact's end he gets the message normally.
Another issue is, when this contact sends me a text, I will receive it as a notification but it will not record the message in Messaging.
I've tried deleting thread and deleting the contact with no results.
I imagine something is cached somewhere but I've been to busy to dig into this.
I was hoping this might sound familiar to someone on here.
Thanks for reading.

I contacted the guy who succeeded in installing UT on a pixel 9a to ask if this is going to be a real port. He answered the following:
"I’m slowly working on moving my mess of local repositories with untracked changes to git repositories with CI builds so the whole thing is reproducible. I‘m hoping that I’ll find some time in the next weeks to wrap that up.
Afterwards, it depends on if I can make the install procedure beginner friendly or not. I’ll need to look into the Halium recovery. So no promises from my side for a real port. I‘d like to see it, but maybe someone else will need to build on top of what I have."

Ubuntu Touch Q&A 189 is live this Saturday 2nd May. If you can, please join us at the usual time of 19:00 UTC.
Before then, if you have any questions on or about Ubuntu Touch and UBports please post them below and we will do our best to answer them in the Q&A.Remember that questions on porting to device **** or its status, and questions on bugs, will not be answered.
read more →@UBportsNews I know that its not allowed to talk about devices, but I find it worth to mention this link to the devs: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12216/eventual-port-for-a-pixel-9a/2 because irs a quite new device and a very high version of android. So maybe someone is inspired by this to make a real port out of it. -

I have a bq Aquaris E5 FHD, and i cant find any build, like not even Canonical's one, ive even searched in https://system-image.ubports.com/ im desperate! And its not like i can just go to the website and search it, because bq went out of buisness! So if someone has a link to the zip file with the images and the MTK scatter file, it would help a lot! You can't do much with Android Lollipop.
Just a reminder to anyone helping: I specifically need the FHD (1080p) version, not the HD (720p). The HD files use the MT6582 scatter, while my FHD model needs the MT6592 scatter. Using the wrong one will result in a hang/bootloop in the bq screen, thanks!
@MrT10001 Oh, looking at that chart... It has the Android edition top part, but doesnt have the buttons, still worked on android somehow... May have been a scrapped newspaper or developer version that went into the hands of someone? This was a kid's main phone before i got it. It was in the Mediamarkt electronics bin in Terrassa Parc Vallés of all places, the bin was full, with that phone on top. Im a bit ashamed of grabbing a phone off a bin, but that gives some backstory. -

I've searched the forum and could not find any preexisting topics.
The clickable templates, by default, build broken with broken graphics/visual artifacts for me. In the generated window (created using
clickable desktop) various different forms of artifact glitches appear. The only default template build that actually works is the Godot template. Not sure what this could be. Resizing the window to a very small height x width seems to fix the output, but at any usable size the graphics break.Any ideas/fixes? Thanks.

The big players in the “ad tech world” and their services can easily be replaced with open-source software, and everything fits in a handbag.
Recommendations:
NextCloud, Paperless ngx, Mailbox.org, Bitwarden, DeltaChat, XMPP, OpenWrt, WireGuard VPN, Pi-hole, Trilium, Ubuntu TouchApps for Ubuntu Touch?
There are many in the Open Store that work very well and reliably with the recommendations listed above.Many thanks to the community of programmers, software specialists, and Ubuntu Touch users.

[Original title: Whatslectron: Whatsapp Web with Electron. ]
Hello everyone.
These days Whatsapp seems to have made a major update of its "Whatsapp Web".
This has positive and negative implications:
*Positive: calls are now available in Whatsapp web (you may need to join beta to have it)
*Negative: Whatsweb seems broken, it takes a lot of CPU and crashes, it seems inherent to Chromium 87 we'll see if it gets corrected.In the meantime I have published an application that allows to use Whatsapp web in a newer web engine through an Electron application. This will hopefully allow to enable calls.
https://open-store.io/app/whatslectron.pparent
Here are the current features:
- Audio calls, but audio quality may vary ( you currently need to enable "Beta" in whatsapp web to have calls )
- Sending and receiving text messages
- Notifications when keeping the app open
- Import / Export attachments via ContentHub
- Sending and Receiving audio messages
- Open URL externally via URLdispatcher
As this is early version there will probably be some small bugs. (Always try to restart or retry in case of a bug ). The application should benefit a lot from upgrade to Mir2.x when it happens.
Do not hesitate to post some feedback.

What is Syncthing?
Syncthing is a continuous file synchronization program. It synchronizes files between two or more computers in real time, safely protected from prying eyes. Your data is your data alone and you deserve to choose where it is stored, whether it is shared with some third party, and how it's transmitted over the internet.
What does this have to do with Ubuntu Touch?
I have packaged Syncthing into a click. This is based off the work of @ZeroPointEnergy who I am not sure is still active in the community.
My attention was drawn to Syncthing because I was looking for a simple way to sync my ebooks between my tablet and my phone, and the Nexcloud sync app did not play well with my Nextcloud setup.
Cool! Where can I get it?
Syncthing companion snap
Want to use Syncthing as a lightweight backup solution and need to install in on a server? There is now a Syncthing snap packaged by yours truly.
I have questions.
Any suggestions or questions on its functioning on Ubuntu Touch can be posted in this thread. I will do my best to help where possible. Questions on Syncthing in general are better posted on their support forum.
