labsinhi, I just tried porting Ubuntu Touch to a new device from the phablet repo's. It now builds. But do I have to use the raring or sausy builds? The porting guild still speaks of quantal10:11
=== codinho__ is now known as codinho
popeylabsin: I'd use saucy, we only recently moved so the guide probably hasn't been updated11:13
labsinpopey: tnx, something else: our data partition is to small to first move the tarball, then unpack it and delete it. Are there things I can remove?11:14
MoviuroHi all! Is Ubuntu for phones _really_ unstable? (as Archlinux testing for example)11:25
Moviurobecause I'm growing tired of Android...11:26

TobyKno12:20
Moviuroalso, did you take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install and their warnings about N7 3G ?12:20
TobyKI ran the phablet-flash and it got as far as this:12:20
TobyKerasing 'system'... OKAY [  2.042s] sending 'system' (65368 KB)...12:20

TobyKok I've managed to manually flash the system partition, anyone know how I can manually complete the rest of the install?12:26
TobyKshould I flash recovery and boot?12:27
ogra_did you already run phablet-flash -b to get the custom recovery ?12:27

AskUbuntuCan I use a .settings file for my Ubuntu Touch application? | http://askubuntu.com/q/30852212:27
TobyKI was running phablet-flash -b but it hung while trying to flash system12:27
TobyKso I had to kill it there12:27
TobyKso I assume it hasn't done recovery yet12:28
ogra_boot into bootloader mode (the thing where you can select options with the volume keys and have a large android on the screen)12:29
TobyKThe device needs to be unlocked for the following to work Flashing system to /home/toby/Downloads/phablet-flash/160/raring-preinstalled-system-armel+grouper.img < waiting for device > erasing 'system'... OKAY [  4.278s] sending 'system' (65368 KB)... ^C12:29
ogra_oh12:29
TobyKI am in bootloader at the moment, used fastboot to flash system and it worked12:29
ogra_yeah, looks like you didnt do that  yet12:29
ogra_so first run: fastboot oem unlock12:29
TobyKI've done that12:30
ogra_tnen you shouldnt get that error message12:30
TobyKbtw thank you for helping, really appreciate it :)12:30
TobyKno that wasn't an error, it was a message it always displays in case there is an error12:30
ogra_so what you can do now is to pull the recovery partition from cdimage and flash that via fastboot too12:30
TobyKok got the recovery and boot images12:31
TobyKshall I flash them both?12:31
ogra_check first if it isnt in /home/toby/Downloads/phablet-flash/160/ already12:31
ogra_no, only that12:31
TobyKok recovery flashed12:31
TobyKnow?12:31
ogra_good, now boo tinto recovery and see the manual installation section on the install wiki12:32
TobyKaha recovery is working12:32
ogra_flash both zips ...12:32
ogra_in the right order12:32
TobyKI need to get the zips onto the device first12:33
TobyKoh wait they are there already12:33
ogra_just follow the wiki12:33
ogra_it has the comands12:33
TobyKthanks ogra, doing that now12:34
TobyKso I don't need to flash the boot image?12:35
ogra_no, it is included in the system zip12:45
ogra_(the armel+grouper.zip)12:45
TobyKboom! I'm in! :-) thank you ogra_!12:48
ogra_:)12:48
ogra_enjoy12:48
TobyKthanks I'm off to go play :-)12:48
ogra_just a warning in case you get the idea to upgrade to saucy ... the grouper still has some bigger issues there12:49
ogra_so better stay with raring for now12:49
MoviuroSo well, yes it is still a developpement version _but_ it looks and feels nice ! It's so awesome O_O a little tough at the very beginning (how the hell do I unlock My screen?) But then...12:51
MoviuroAlso one question: what are those 69minutes on the lockscreen for ?12:52
Moviuro(best part in testing is : it didn't completely f*ck up my Android :) )12:52
AskUbuntuOnly "Code Snippet" project in Ubuntu SDK | http://askubuntu.com/q/30852512:53
ogra_double tap the 69 minutes :)12:53
Moviuroogra_: I reflashed Android (actually need my phone :x )12:54
Moviuroogra_: what should then appear? easter egg ?12:54
ogra_it switches to "33 messages recieved" and next double tap to "52km travelled"12:55
ogra_(it currently uses fake data but is supposed to giv you info on the lock screen without having to unlock)12:55
MoviuroI promise when version comes with : mail + Phone + SMS + Google Contacts & calendar + 3G support (couldn't test it right now), I'll switch to it12:56
ogra_you can fully use the phone ... not sure why you rolled back :)12:56
Moviurodouble tap is awfully tiring...12:56
Moviuroogra_: the keyboard12:56
ogra_all you listed above should work12:56
ogra_(on raring that is ... saucy still has some issues)12:57
Moviuroogra_: the keyboard does not seem to support french12:57
Moviuroogra_: any version you recommend for me? (I tried saucy...)12:57
Moviuro(N4)12:57
ogra_i think there is a way to set that but not sure how :) i never use a localized kbd12:57
Moviuroogra_: tried writing/reading french without accents? awful12:57
ogra_the raring/monthly-06 one is the most stable12:58
MoviuroHas it got a _real_ ssh + sftp capability ?12:58
ogra_yeah, us gearmans have it easier, umlauts can be expressed in ascii worst case :)12:58
ogra_you can install openssh-server, yes12:58
ogra_it has access to all of the ubuntu archive12:59
Moviuroogra_: I didn't see access to a terminal though13:00
Moviuro(which is why I'd like to use Ubuntu more than Android)13:00
ogra_there is adb and there is a terminal installed that you can reach through the serach function in the apps lens13:00
Moviurowith zsh (just 4 fun) and unison for sync13:00
Moviuroapt-get ?13:01
ogra_sure13:01
Moviuro(I don't like *buntu on desk/laptops ; I run archlinux on all my machines)13:01
Moviuroogra_: know what? I'm in13:01
MoviuroQR decoder available too?13:02
ogra_i think i saw one on G+ recently13:02
Moviuroogra_: where are Ubuntu Phone's news & feeds ? (On G+ or RSS)13:04
ogra_well, there is a mailing list that is usually getting regular reports ... ubuntu-phone13:05
MoviuroBTW I didn't use adb : I have a custom recovery which can flash/wipe and so on. (was pretty scared though when at first I saw that about so much PITA with android sdk and adb and so on xD)13:05
ogra_well, adb runs in the installed system13:05
Moviuroah...13:07
MoviuroI tried adb from my arch machine ><"13:07
MoviuroAlso, I found the Phone to be really hot when running Ubuntu13:08
ogra_likely a saucy issue13:08
Moviurook13:08
ogra_i know a lot of people use the raring image as daily driver13:08
MoviuroI'll stick with less unstable one then ;)13:08
Moviurookay, let's go flash raring on that N4 of mine :)13:14
MoviuroHow do updates happen? Shall I apt-get update ?13:16
TobyKI can't seem to launch any apps on the Nexus 7 :( any app I click on brings up a blank screen. Only managed once to load Notes and Calculator.13:18
MoviuroTobyK: it seems the most stable version is raring13:18
Moviuro(TobyK, as ogra_ told me)13:19
TobyKyea the Wiki mentions that too, hence I am running latest raring13:19
Moviurooh hell, yes! Raring is much more fluid :D13:19
TobyKwell it's not running for me on Nexus 7. It boots, I can get to home screen and apps bar, but can't launch apps13:20
TobyKbtw, for updates, I assume you run phablet-flash to update to latest13:20
TobyKrather than apt-get13:20
MoviuroTobyK: I'd rather not... I pretty much dislike flashing... whereas I prefer running something in the terminal ;)13:21
TobyKso just run phablet-flash in the terminal :) heh13:22
Moviurohave to quit for my phone to go on the internet13:22
MoviuroTobyK: don't have it13:22
TobyKwell not on the device, on your pc13:22
Moviuro(archlinux, and custom recovery on my phone)13:22
Moviurono need for that phablet flash thing ;)13:22
TobyKwhat device are you using?13:23

Moviuropopey: sounds like a good idea15:38
Moviurodoin it right now15:38
Moviuro(why use adb? I don't get it... it' linux! use the terminal! or ssh! ^_^)15:38
popeycan if you like15:39
popeybut by default we dont have ssh server on the phone15:39
popeywhich makes sense given a default username/password of 'phablet', I don't want random people ssh'ing into my phone ㋛15:40

asdftrt234can anybody please help? i'm trying to install ubuntu phone on galaxy nexus using the guide wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install but i'm stuck at; phablet-flash -b. The phone automatic goes into fastboot mode15:59
michael1903485System crashed, so i'll try again. Can anybody please help me? I'm following the wiki.ubuntu.com/touch guide but get error after phablet-flash -b. I think because my galaxy nexus automaticly goes into fastboot mode. Any ideas?16:15

njinnik90, hallo, is broken the lateral swipe or it is so by default, can you also point me to the most advanced ppa, I've @@@my disk and missed everything16:37
nik90njin: I am sorry but which swipe are you referring?16:44
nik90njin: In the clock app?16:44
njinnik90, yes16:45
dejelloHey all, I'm looking to fix the missing battery indicator in my builds....  Not sure atm where to start looking.  I started looking the other day but haven't spent enough time yet due to other life stuffs...  Just seeing if anyone might have an idea :)16:45
nik90njin: to switch tabs (from clock->alarm->timer>stopwatch), you can no longer lateral swipe. This is by ubuntu sdk design.16:50
nik90njin: In certain tabs however, you can vertical swipe to view more options or features16:50
michael1903485sergiusens everyting goes well untill phablet-flash -b where i get this < waiting for device > error: cannot load '/home/michael/Hentede': No such file or directory  Error while executing fastboot flash system /home/michael/Hentede filer/phablet-flash/saucy-12/saucy-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img Make sure the device is connected and viewable by running 'adb devices' Ensure you have a root device, one which runnin16:50
nik90njin: If you want to try out the clock app on your laptop, you can use ppa:ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/daily16:51
nik90njin: it is updated daily and is the most bleeding edge you can get :-)16:51
nik90njin: hope that answers your question16:52

MasterProgramHello, I've got a 9.7 inch coby kyros tablet running android but it's not rooted and I was thinking about trying to flash ubuntu touch onto the device. However I don't want to brick the device. So I figured I would discuss all of this here first. So too started off I would like to know if it is even possible for my device at this time?19:03
