maximilian_markusN00b, just phablet-tools cdimage-touch -d mako, it seems this is what I do and it retains the user data.14:48
markusN00bSo you are able to make phone calls?14:50
markusN00bI used phablet-tools without the -d option. It created a dir suggesting I already have the current version of touch14:50
markusN00b$ ls Downloads/phablet-flash/ubuntu-touch/14:51
markusN00b>  2013082114:51
maximilian_Am trying this version now. I think I had --pending in the command line and had a version from 24th august14:52
maximilian_or maybe an older version, not sure and now the phone is being reflashed so no way to know.14:53
BECQ: is it possible to run touch along side Android?14:54
maximilian_BEC, Nope, not yet.14:54
BECmaximilian_, is it planned?14:55
BECI have a Motorola Xoom & can't wait to try it, though specs are not optimal as per site specs14:55
maximilian_That's what they said would be done for the Edge phone... No idea.14:55
BECaha; thanks :)14:55
maximilian_No need to be excited yet, the software is really not ready.14:55
marcinelloBEC, some users already did it on N7: http://barrenfrozenwasteland.com/2013/03/dual-booting-android-and-ubuntu-touch-on-the-nexus-7/14:58
maximilian_markusN00b, phone flashed, user data still there, version used is from 21st.14:58
markusN00bmaximilian_ and calls? Can you put in your Sim card and use it?15:00
BECmarcinello, thx15:01
maximilian_phone does not boot to Ubuntu Touch. Does a strange "squeek" sound and the display remains black...15:06
maximilian_Man, are the fonts small on the phone... it's flashing.15:24
maximilian_Black screen of death...15:26
maximilian_a reboot and all is fine again... and yes, it does phone calls.15:31

ZackehhBeen trying to port to One S but can't get chroot access because ubuntu_chroot doesn't exist on the device, but it's in the zip output from the build - any ideas?16:17
HelenaKittyHello16:22
ZackehhHey16:22
HelenaKittyI've been trying to install Ubuntu Touch onto the Nexus 7 but all the links I've found online are for Windows or use the Nexus Toolkit. I want to use fastboot/adb and I can't search anymore cause my computer is wayyy too slow so please could you PM me with instructions rather than giving me a link? thnx!16:24
ZackehhYou mean you don't have fastboot/adb access due to drivers?16:25
HelenaKittyI have fastboot/adb access16:25

hiohi, where can I order my ubuntu edge?16:42
hiois ubuntu optimized for my ipod touch?16:44
maximilian_the ipod would be on the edge with ubuntu touch16:45
HelenaKittyhio: Good luck getting Linux on apple hardware. lol16:46
hiowhat do u mean? isnt apple the same as linux?16:46
HelenaKittyWTF?! Guys please give me the right link for the img files for the grouper ubuntu touch 13 image!16:47
HelenaKittyhio: No16:47
hioapple has a linux kernel16:47
hioits based on some old linux thing16:48
HelenaKittyand Apple don't support Linux. No they don't, they have a BSD kernel.16:48
hioyeah right, BSD is linux16:48
HelenaKittyNo it's NOT, it's Unix!16:48
hiouh16:49
hioi always thought unix was just how stupid people spelled linux Oo16:49
HelenaKittyand either way... Apple don't support UNIX as a whole, they support Mac OS, they don't support BSD, Linux, Unix, Minix, whatever therefore their drivers will ONLY run on Mac OS.16:49
HelenaKittyUnix is a family.16:50
hiowe can just ask apple to support us, open a support ticket or something. they have reallly good apple care, that one time they fixed my broken screen for free16:50
HelenaKittyLinux and BSD are kernels within the family. OpenBSD, NetBSD are part of the BSD family and Ubuntu and Debian are part of the Linux Family.16:50
HelenaKittyApple will only support if you're a mulimillianaire and willing to pay a gigantic fee.16:51
HelenaKittyThis is Ubuntu support and we're getting offtopic.16:51
hiothat shuttleworth guy is rich right? he should pay for it16:51
hioyeah I just wanted an ubuntu edge16:52
HelenaKittyIf you want to put Ubuntu onto a device the best option is to buy an Android device.16:52
HelenaKittyDo NOT go for any ARM device! Going for an iPod wont work, going for a Blackberry wont work.16:53
hioi have a samsung ativ s with windows phone 8.16:53
HelenaKittyGoing for a Nexus device or an Xperia device or even a Huaweii phone will work16:53
HelenaKittyhio: It wont work.16:54
hiobut i wont be able to phone ppl?16:54
HelenaKittyUbuntu Touch are trying to support the phone hio16:54
HelenaKittyUbuntu Touch was MADE for phones.16:54
HelenaKittyMeaning it will eventually support Cellular and you will be able to use it like a phone.16:55
hiodamn but i already ordered the samsung ativ s16:55
hioOH OK, so it doesnt work now16:55
HelenaKittyInfact I have already seen the Phone and MS apps.16:55
hiowhat phone16:55
HelenaKittyWhat?16:55
hiowhat phone have u seen16:56
HelenaKittyIt should work with any phone on the Ubuntu Touch compatibility list. I think I saw a list at http://touch.ubuntu.com/16:56
hiosays it cant find the website16:57
HelenaKittyI think it's http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch16:58
hioHelenaKitty, thanks for the help. I have to admit something though16:59
hioI'm actually an Opensuse user and I hate ubuntu and would never use it anywhere16:59
HelenaKitty I'm not keen on Ubuntu but I want to get rid of Android on my Nexus 7. I'm going to strip the Touch image down and make it somthing minimal.17:00
hiohm thats a surprise and a good idea17:00
hiobut by the time ubuntu will have a working smartphone version, opensuse will have one too17:01
hioor gnome17:01
HelenaKittyLol I think I just created a brick17:03
markusN00bmaximilian_ : I had to disable my PIN. Now I can phone and SMS right away with ubuntu touch.17:04
markusN00bjippie17:04
HelenaKittyRight pls can someone now tell me where the bugger I find the grouper imgs?! o.o17:05
hiomarkusN00b, what phone do you use17:05
markusN00bnexus 417:05
hiowhy is it still so expensivE?17:05
markusN00bThere are some on eBay for like 250 €17:06
HelenaKittyHello?17:15
HelenaKittyHow do I replace unity with mate?18:12
HelenaKittyYes I want to use mate on a tablet.18:12
HelenaKittyYou know I am regretting this switch to Ubuntu Touch cause I can't even do what i want with it.18:15
HelenaKittyI expected to be able to do more with it than I can do with Android.18:15
markusN00bHelenaKitty: You can not expect this. Touch is not alpha, not beta, not final. It is developer!18:35

popeydevices will ship next year22:14
mousepie_linux+1 ^22:14
crypticmofopopey i read some where that cdma devices will not be ready on the first go round .. that dosen't mean a dev can't hack something up and make it work correct ?22:15

crypticmofoif they do hack something up .. will it go to chanonical ?22:15
popeyindeed, we won't ship CDMA support in october22:16
popeybut if someone wants to work on that, great.22:16

RAOFBronze: The full archive is available on Ubuntu Touch, so you can install whatever you want there.23:51
Bronzeexcellent.23:51
