=== ara is now known as Guest1529
mhall119remember popey, with great power comes a great number of work items that nobody else wants to do12:55
jcastromhall119, what are my options if my ubuntu touch device stopped showing up in `adb devices`?19:51
jcastroall the release notes seem to be for 13.10?19:59
popeyjcastro: unplug, re-plug20:04
popeyjcastro: system settings -> about phone, make sure developer mode is on20:04
mhall119jcastro: you need developer mode on (as popey said) and the device unlocked20:07
jcastroyep, checked all that20:07
mhall119did you unplug-replug?20:07
popeyis the phone actually unlocked?20:07
jcastroyes, and reboot20:07
jcastroyes, it's  running ubuntu touch20:08
popeyi.e. not at the pin lock screen?20:08
popeyno, not that kind of unlocked20:08
popeyget it to the dash20:08
jcastrooh, so unlock it then plug it back in?20:08
popeyor leave plugged in20:08
mhall119or plug it in and then unlock it20:08
popeybut unlock it, yes20:08
popeysecurity yo20:08
mhall119basically, adb only works when we are confident that the owner is in posession of the device, so it needs to have a PIN (or passphrase) and they had to enter that to unlock it20:08
jcastronope20:09
jcastrostill blank20:09
mhall119have you tried a hammer?20:09
popeywhat version you running?20:09
jcastro14.10 r24320:09
mhall119jcastro: does it open a Nautilus window and show you the MTP folders? (Documents, Music, etc)20:09
jcastrono, it doesn't20:09
jcastronothing in dmesg either20:09
popeyflip developer mode off then on again20:09
mhall119then it's not making a connection20:10
popeybroken cable?20:10
mhall119try a different USB cable20:10
popeyr243!?20:10
jcastrocable and port work fine, already tried that20:10
popeyhow did you manage that?20:10
* popey is on 14.10 r13720:10
mhall119popey: I know, that's from like 2014-1020:10
popeywhich channel?20:10
jcastroI was running it all cycle20:10
jcastroand then one day it stopped updating20:10
mhall119jcastro: yeah, probably old devel channel, you should switch to RTM20:11
popeybet you're on trusty20:11
jcastrooh, it still shows up as utopic dev20:11
jcastromhall119, how do I do that?20:11
jcastroI just want to run whatever the best one is20:11
mhall119ubuntu-device-flash -something something20:11
mhall119popey knows20:11
popeyubuntu-device-flash --channel=devel-proposed20:11
jcastrofrom the device itself?20:11
popeyno20:11
popeyvia usb20:11
mhall119no no, don't put him on proposed20:11
popey20:11:27 < jcastro> I just want to run whatever the best one is20:11
popeyproposed == best20:12
popey20:12
mhall119no it's not20:12
popeylies20:12
mhall119proposed == newest20:12
jcastrowell, if it can't find it on usb20:12
popeynewest == best20:12
jcastrothen I can't flash it20:12
jcastroanyway to do it from the device itself?20:12
mhall119yeah, you need to sort your USB connection first20:12
popeyyeah, you can do it from the device20:12
popeyin the terminal20:12
popeybut I'd flip dev mode off/on first20:12
mhall119what a concept, eg?20:12
popeymight be broken adb on your pc20:13
jcastroflipping does nothing20:13
popeykill adbd20:13
popeyon pc20:13
popeythen unplug/replug, run adb devices20:13
mhall119if it's not making an MTP connection, it's probably a physical problem, not adb20:13
popeyalso, usb cable20:13
jcastroif it's physical it's the phone, I've tested everything else20:13
popeyit's not a "charging only" cable is it?20:13
jcastrono20:13
mhall119jcastro: have you tried juju deploy fix-my-phone?20:14
popeyI have one of them, burned it20:14
popeyso yeah, kill adbd first20:14
popeykillall adb20:14
popeyadb devices20:14
jcastrodid that already, still blank20:14
jcastrois it easy to upgrade from the device?20:14
popeyyeah, if you can type well20:15
popeysystem-image-cli -c ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09 -b 020:15
popeydo that in terminal20:15

popeyadb shell in and you'll see ubuntu-download process20:19
popeymeaning "yay"20:19
jcastropopey, is it a good idea to cancel it and do it from the laptop?20:22
jcastroit's atomic right? :)20:22
popeyya20:23
popeyits fine20:23
popeyyou can always restart it if it hasn't rebooted into the update20:23

jcastrono one's done spotify yet?20:50
popeyyes, someone has20:50
popeybut there's a platform issue with playing audio in the background20:50
jcastrooh20:50
popeythe problem is because spotify has a binary blob for doing the streaming20:51
jcastronod20:51
ahayzenpopey, are they waiting for background playlists as well? or does the music get cut as soon as it minimises ?20:51
popeyalso, put a couple of trailers on your phone20:51
jcastrodoes the normal music app have that problem?20:51
popeyahayzen: no, its because of the blob20:51

jcastroman, music works awesome20:58
