petri4kovhi all00:36
petri4kovanyone here deep enough in understanding ubuntu touch, and doesn't mind telling what is left to be done in the whole system?00:37
petri4kovI have a university project which must include the future plans for ubuntu touch00:37
RAOFpetri4kov: Hm, what do you mean?00:39
petri4kovwell00:39
petri4kovI'm not really sure myself00:39
petri4kovbut I must write about what is to happen with ubuntu touch in the future00:40
petri4kovin developer point of view00:40
petri4kovlet's say for example, implement that or this00:40
RAOFWell, a bunch of stuff is on blueprints.launchpad.net.00:42
RAOFAnd there's stuff like the core-apps stuff on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps00:43
petri4kovwell00:44
petri4kovcore apps is just another section of the project00:44
petri4kovthis one is for future development plans00:44
petri4kovi looked over the stuff at launchpad00:45
petri4kovseems like a really big bunch of stuff00:46
petri4kov:D00:46
petri4kovI gave it deeper look now00:47
petri4kovIt seems like it will do a part of the job00:47
petri4kov:)00:47
kenvandinepetri4kov, another suggestion would be to hang out in #ubuntu-touch-meeting on fridays00:58
kenvandinethere are a series of meetings on each of the core apps00:58
kenvandineto discuss status00:59
rsalvetislangasek: uploaded a new qtubuntu-gles and we also should have the remaining bins in new as well00:59
kenvandinepetri4kov, i don't have the full schedule, but i know the trojita developers meet at 1300 UTC tomorrow01:00
petri4kovkenvandine, thanks that would be really helpful, but unforutnately I have to pass the paper on saturday01:00
petri4kov:D01:00
kenvandinepetri4kov, so you could just watch what they discuss to get an idea of what still needs to be done01:00
kenvandineok01:00
petri4kovas always in the last minute01:00
kenvandineit a pretty broad topic to get a handle on quickly01:01
RAOF#ubuntu-touch is presumably logged?01:01
petri4kovyeah01:01
kenvandineoh right01:01
kenvandineyou could read the logs for last weeks meetings01:01
kenvandinethe meetings are in #ubuntu-touch-meeting01:02
petri4kovfor now I need to generalize what needs to be done01:02
petri4kovlike I can think of not draining battery power so qiuckly01:02
petri4kovI will give those log a shot01:02
petri4kov*logs01:02
techdocHi, I'm trying to boot my phone into the bootloader, but for some reason it does not want to do that.01:52

popeympt: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#Phone seems to have no options for setting alarm / notification sounds which are not text messages, e.g. for clock. Is that something which should be in there, or should be in-app?07:49
mptpopey, that’s a good question. I don’t know.07:50
mptNormally I’d say that’s a per-app setting. But for sounds in particular it may be useful to see them listed together, so that you can (for example) make sure you aren’t using the same sound effect for two unrelated things.07:51
popeyon iOS it's all in one place - "Sounds" for baked in apps.07:52

Sossigerhello katie09:11
Sossigernice everybody is very talkative here09:11
mandelElleo, because the other branches are waiting for approval I have decide to request a silo just with the qml change, as soon as it is created and tested I'll let you know09:15
Elleomandel: okay, thanks09:30
popeympt: the reason I ask is that we're currently using the ringtone, which is confusing, can nik90 (clock dev) get guidance on where the setting should go?09:35
ogra_is it actually the ringtone ? i thought it is "a ringtone" not even from the set of rigtones from the phone09:37
=== chriadam is now known as chriadam|away
nik90ogra_: I thought the alarm ringtone was the same as when receiving a call, no?09:45
nik90ogra_: atm we are discussing with mpt where the setting to change the alarm "sound" should go..in the settings app or the clock app09:45
ogra_well, it surely isnt the same for me but i think my system isnt default anymore09:46
mptpopey, nik90: I suggest putting it in the clock app for now. But remember, where the setting should go is a different issue from the default being confusing.09:47
nik90mpt: agreed they are two different issues09:47
nik90mpt: should each alarm be given the ability to choose their ringtone or do we go with one sound for all alarms?09:48
mptnik90, a separate sound for each alarm would be useful. The alarm to wake me up may be more strident than the alarm reminding me to take my painkillers. :)09:49
ogra_nik90, btw, a way to make the alarm go off *before* the actual appointment time wuld be very helpful too09:49
* ogra_ perfers to be notified 5min before a meeting starts 09:49
nik90mpt: ok09:49
nik90ogra_: hmm I think that should be a calendar app feature and not the clock..to provide a way to remind about an appointment few minutes before09:50
nik90ogra_: I don't think you would want alarms to do that09:50
ogra_oh, right, i thought you talk about calendar09:50
nik90clock09:50
ogra_yeah, sorry09:51
nik90np09:51
ogra_alarms are perfectly fine when they are on time :)09:51
nik90ogra_: :) I would be angry if my alarms woke me up 15 minutes earlier than the intended time09:51
ogra_hehe09:51
nik90popey: ok so that is settled..I will add the ability to set the alarm sound in the "add alarm page"...if the user doesn't choose anything it will default to the system ringtone.09:52
popeygreat09:53
ogra_hmm09:54
ogra_i cant find any tone that even matches what i hear on alarms09:54
ogra_(or calendar notifications)09:54
ogra_i wonder where that tune even comes from ... it surely isnt in the list to select from09:55
nik90ogra_: You will have to ask charles then where he chose that sound then :)09:56
ogra_probably someting some Qt module ships or so09:56
popeynik90: src/snap.cpp:#define ALARM_SOUND_FILENAME "/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/phone-incoming-call.ogg"09:58
popeyhard wired in indicator-datetime09:58
ogra_hmm, why is that sound not in the list09:58
popeynik90: so maybe file a bug in clock with a task on i-d09:58
popeyas that will need changing09:58
ogra_(not that i'm eager to use that awful sound though)09:58
nik90ogra_: If I vaguely remember, that's not the folder the settings app displays for the list of ringtones09:59
ogra_yeah09:59
nik90popey: ok..will create a bug09:59
popeynice one09:59
ogra_well, we shouldnt ship it if you cant use it09:59
ogra_just wastes space09:59
seb128the fact that it's not used by the settings doesn't mean that the package is useless10:03
seb128we need to check if any of the sounds shipped in the binary is used by code we run10:03
ogra_indeed10:04
nik90seb128: was it you or someone else who did the sound listing in the UI? Just asking so that I could follow a similar approach in the clock app.10:19
seb128nik90, me10:20
nik90seb128: is it possible to list the files using pure QML? Or do I need to add a C++ plugin?10:20
seb128nik90, no need of cpp iirc10:21
nik90seb128: ok..I will be most likely listing the ringtones in an option selector using http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qml-folderlistmodel.html10:23
seb128right10:23
seb128nik90, but ringtones might not be what you want to list10:24
ogra_yeah, notification sounds rather10:24
nik90seb128: true..I need to first look at all the sound folders available and choose the correct one10:25
seb128well, notifications are not great either10:25
seb128they are the messages' sound10:25
seb128usually quite short, not mean to loop either10:25
seb128ideally we would get some alarm sounds10:25
ogra_true10:25
nik90seb128: where can I find the sound folders? On my trusty machine, I went to /usr/share/sounds10:26
nik90seb128: however I cannot findn the phone ringtones there10:26
nik90seb128: basically I need to show the same sounds folder that is present on the phone and the desktop10:26
seb128nik90, that's the correct folder10:27
nik90seb128: otherwise the clock app wont work on the desktop10:27
seb128well, expect it has subdirs10:27
nik90it has ubuntu, alsa, freedesktop10:27
nik90the ubuntu folder has only the folder stereo10:27
nik90inside which are the ringtones that are not shown on the phone10:28
seb128nik90, right, stereo is the old desktop set of sounds10:35
ogra_nik90, i see a ringtones and a notifications folder10:35
seb128notification/ringtone are the new ones we got for touch10:35
ogra_next to "stereo"10:35
seb128ogra_, those are not on desktop atm10:35
ogra_ah, right10:36
seb128but we can install ubuntu-touch-sounds on the desktop iso10:36
nik90seb128, ogra_: Is there a package that I can add as a dependency to the clock app to have the phone ringtones installed on the desktop as well?10:36
seb128^10:36
nik90seb128: ok..I think that's the best solution10:37
seb128well, "best"10:37
seb128those sounds are still not good ones for alarms10:37
ogra_well, and make someone add an alarms dir to that  package too ;)10:37
nik90for now*10:37
seb128I don't want a ringtone or a sms sound to wake up10:37
nik90ogra_: yes...I will request popey to talk to the design team for that10:38
seb128+110:38
seb128we should also talk to mpt about getting a design to import custom sounds10:38
ogra_++10:38
seb128I know kenvandine said he wanted to look at that10:38
nik90+10:38
seb128we can import through the content-hub, we just need a design for the workflow10:38
ogra_and we need some click package design so devs can provide "soundtheme" packages too10:38
nik90ooh I get to play with content-hub then..awesome10:39
ogra_and wallpaper collections :)10:39
ogra_(or rather lockscreen collectios since you cant change the wallapaer anymore)10:39
seb128speaking of which, we need to update the settings10:39
seb128we are sure than the ability to customize the bg is not coming back?10:40
ogra_yeah :(10:40
seb128Laney emailed Mark about it, but no news since10:40
ogra_i think you will still be able10:40
ogra_but it only will shine through in the small stripe between header and app content10:40
ogra_pretty useless imho10:40
nik90ah :(10:40
seb128:/10:40
ogra_(at least that is what i was told when i asked)10:40
Laneyhaha10:41
seb128it would be nice to be able to have the bg of the lenses as an image10:41
nik90it would have been nice to have a blurred user background shown in the dash..but too bad10:41
LaneyI don't think it's the end of the matter10:41
ogra_well, ask design, i'm probably not up to date with that10:41
ogra_but it came up in my ranting thread about the back button placement on the ml10:41
seb128design keep changing their mind on lot of topics10:41
seb128so let's see10:41
* ogra_ wishes theyy would change it for the back button :P )10:42
nik90lol10:42
LaneyI talked to Rick about it and he said it'd be easier to resolve that in person so we can raise it at the sprint10:42
ogra_fistfights !10:42

mptPillow fights!10:42
ogra_(with fluffy gloves indeed)10:42
seb128the pillow ideas seems a better one ;-)10:43

popeyya10:53
ogra_dbarth, my understanding is that as long as we support the 13.10 framework cordova-2.8 must stay (or we need to drop the framework support from the image alongside) ... at least thats how i understood people like lool and cjwatson when this was discussed10:57
=== chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
=== tetris4_ is now known as tetris4
dbarthogra_: technically that's corect, ie (codova 2.8 was part of 13.10)11:14
ogra_right, so technically we guarantee that apps built on 13.10 still work11:14
ogra_(i personally think we should drop the ancient framework)11:14
ogra_(especially since Qt 5.2 will make using it in native apps impossible too)11:15
dbarthogra_: in practice there are 3 apps that linked (without knowing) with cordova11:15
ogra_right, but i think we need to stick to our promises or adjust for reality11:15
ogra_either is fine11:16
ogra_lool, ^^^11:16

jhodappMirv, we aren't using qtmultimedia-touch packages anymore12:31
jhodappMirv, upstream has my changes and there's been a little bit of work with them, but not much...it's totally in upstream's hands to bring that to an official release12:31
Mirvjhodapp: if it's not in https://codereview.qt-project.org/ it should be proposed properly12:32
Mirvjhodapp: regarding -touch, oh right, I forgot about that media-hub replaced it for our purposes. is it truly so that all the core media playing stuff we have is now media-hub only, no qtmultimedia used?12:34
Mirvthat lessens the priority of it, although we still support qtmultimedia for apps and probably would need to get rid of GStreamer 0.1012:35
=== alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch
pmcgowanMirv, my understanding is we access media hub via qtmultimedia jhodapp?12:39
jhodappMirv, it is in codereview on qt12:40
jhodapppmcgowan, we do, but just the QML interface classes12:40
pmcgowanjhodapp, got it12:41
jhodappMirv, we no longer use any of their backends having to do with gstreamer, merely high level control interfaces which call into qtubuntu-media (this is what calls into media-hub)12:42
Mirvjhodapp: right, good to know. so there's wip/gstreamer-1.0 based on the stuff you did earlier, but it did not see much work for some time12:42
Mirvbut latest work is from 3 weeks ago https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,83406 so it's possible the branch could be eventually merged for Qt 5.412:43
jhodappright exactly, I have no idea why it's not a high priority other than there's only one person paid by Digia to work on QtMultimedia12:43
Mirvthat probably goes a long way, plus that GStreamer is only used on Linux and their biggest paying customers are probably app devs on other platforms12:44
jhodappMirv, yes that's definitely part of it, the QtMultimedia developer has mostly been focusing on Windows Mobile lately12:44
Mirv(well I don't really know but the combined effect is probably that it's not a nr. 1 priority)12:44
jhodappMirv, indeed12:45
Mirvwell, we need to mostly revisit it in case foundations teams want to get rid of GStreamer 0.10 for 14.10, which at this rate won't happen12:45
jhodappMirv, it wouldn't be that much more work to finish that WIP branch off...I wish someone could get some time to do it12:45
jhodappMirv, we really shouldn't be using GStreamer 0.10 anymore...it's very antiquated12:46

jhodappMirv, I'm looking for a way of testing media-hub against our old version of Qt5 prior to Qt5.2 to isolate a bug. I tried going back to an old build on trusty that still had it, but I can't upgrade libhybris without breaking things...how hard would it be to downgrade Qt or do you have any other ideas?14:14

mterrymzanetti, when will reminders app be able to use a real evernote account?14:36

mterrymzanetti, cool14:37

dpmmzanetti, mterry, not yet, they want to test the app themselves first, and I sent them to them yesterday14:39
mzanettisergiusens: that should be fixed since last night14:39

mhall119yup, all fixed now14:40
mhall119thanks mzanetti, I've been missing this functionality :)14:40
mzanettimhall119: heh. really? what do you use it for? just out of curiosity14:41
mhall119mzanetti: uh...scanning QR codes14:41
mzanettilike really scanning codes and searching for stuff on google?14:41
mhall119mzanetti: just scanning random codes I find to see where they point14:41
mzanettiah ok :)14:41
mhall119stores have them on stickers to point to their websites, etc14:41
mzanettiah ok14:42
mhall119also, summit.ubuntu.com has them to load the schedule on your phone14:42
mzanettiright... its bus stops around here14:42
mzanettibut ever since I do home office I don't use the bus that often any more14:42

mhall119oh, we need a geocaching app14:43
mhall119using rickspencer3's Mapping tutorials14:44
mzanettiyeah.. we really do need a geocaching app... but the mapping is the easiest part there14:49
davmor2mzanetti: you have OSMTouch surely you just need co-ordinates then :)14:51
mzanettidavmor2: nah... for a proper app lots of other stuff is required. a coordinate calculation helper, some integrated note taking, support for multi-caches and lots more14:52

ubot5Ubuntu bug 1297357 in Ubuntu Clock App "Click App Preview of the core-apps are of low quality" [Low,Confirmed]15:06
mhall119ogra_: that's not the Clock app then, it's the datetime indicator, the clock isn't running when the screen is off15:07
mhall119the indicator is what triggers alarms, not hte app15:07
ogra_mhall119, well, the clock :) not the clock-app ...15:07
ogra_could even be the system clock that gets halted15:08
dpmdobey, I'd recommend opening another one. Right now we're putting the translations in the .mo files for the core apps, and on that bug what's left to be done only is to update the screenshots and descriptions of the apps in the store, which I now have the permissions for15:08
ogra_mhall119, i think tvoss' hw-alarms api will at least make sure we get proper time for the alarms15:09
mhall119ogra_: ah, ok, misunderstood15:09
dobeyogra_: there definitely seems to be something seriously wrong with the system clock being halted, at least on my phone15:09
=== gnu is now known as Guest80247
ogra_dobey, well, it is fine to halt the visible clock to save battery while it is invisible ... but the alarms need to still get the correct time on the low level15:09
dobeydpm: are the descriptions for those apps updated in the .desktop files?15:10
dobeyogra_: yeah, but when i install a new image, my phone shouldn't say it's february 1970 when i reboot15:10
tvossdobey, what is the concrete issue you are seeing?15:10
dpmdobey, I think right now we only have good app names in the .desktop files. I think some of them don't even have descriptions15:10
dobeydpm: i think Comment= in the .desktop needs to match the description on the store15:11
dobeydpm: also the description in the manifest.json should be the same15:11
dobeytvoss: when i unlock my phone, the time is sometimes way off, and it takes several seconds at least, for the time to update15:12
dpmdobey, yeah, I wasn't too sure of which should correspond to which. I created https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/AppMetadataTranslations as an attempt to have an overview and find out15:12
tvossdobey, is that on a recent image? the delayed update was mostly due to the blocked rendering loop in qt apps15:12
ogra_tvoss, thats on 18 for me15:12
ogra_yesterdays image15:12
tvossogra_, dobey okay, that's interesting. let me try to reproduce15:13
dobeytvoss: this is on a nexus 5 btw. i don't know if it's actually different on nexus 415:14
ogra_tvoss, keep the phone off for a while ... if you wake it up you see the clock a bit behind and have it jump forward a few mins15:14
dobeytvoss: and yes, on current image15:14
dobeydpm: ok, i'll have a look at that. i actually also have a request in to get rid of "Tagline" completely from the store15:15

dpmdobey, feel free to edit, any help is welcome!15:16
dobeyok, great15:16
dpmdobey, in offline mode, there is still the point that manifests are not translatable, but do they need to be if we can read the translations from the .desktop file? I'm not sure it contains all the metadata you're displaying on the scope, though15:17
dobeydpm: if Comment in the .desktop is the same as the Description in the manifest, then the .desktop file is enough. if we want those to be separate things for some reason (i can't think of any good reason for them to be), then we'll need separate translations for them15:18

Tassadarn5's RTC is very bad though21:30
dobeyvery bad?21:30
Tassadarit can't be set, or else things start to break21:30

Tassadarfrom what I found out, the RTC can't be set, or else there are some problems with modem and somebody said guys from CM who tried to fixed it got data corruption(?)21:32
Tassadarso android has a daemon, which stores offset in a file in /data, which is added to the time in RTC on every boot21:33
