dobeyRobbyF: it hasn't been supported for about a year, so if flashing with ubuntu-device-flash on the stable channel doesn't work, then it's likely long since been deleted from the server00:00
dobeyoh, looks like there is an image in the 'trusty' channel though00:00
RobbyFmind if you can link it?00:00
dobeyubuntu-device-flash touch --channel ubuntu-touch/trusty --device maguro00:01
dobeybut it's totally unsupported and probably won't work00:01
* bschaefer reads00:02
bschaeferkgunn, what am i working on :)?00:02
RobbyFterget device cannot be reached over adb00:02
bschaeferoo sdl, zapa_ yeah SDL2 works on touch (as well as 1.2 with software rendering only)00:03
zapa_agh neat. Thought it didn't so I stripped the SDL host from the build00:03
zapa_gonna add it back and see tomorrow00:03
RobbyFbuilds are based on android 4.2.2 still right00:10
Penseeogra_ thanks for the link (pseudo store)00:12
RobbyFthanks dobey, appears to be going at this point00:22
koding123so what is the point/pros/benefit of using Ubuntu Make( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make ) instead of a package specific PPA? http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/ubuntu-make00:39
=== chriadam|away is now known as chriadam
lazyPowerkoding123: i think the idea behind ubuntu make is to track bleeding edge upstream tools vs relying on a package archive. removing the packaging barrier for contributions.01:02
koding123so is it a official tool? considering its in https://github.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-make ? (by official I meant meant reliable compared to 3rd party PPAs)\01:04
koding123lazyPower, ^01:05
lazyPowerwe've got canonical staffers working on curating the project but there's quite a bit of community contribution as well01:05
lazyPowerso in short, yeah its an officially supported method to get moving01:08
koding123lazyPower, thanks, so packages downloaded through ubuntu-make don't add a repository entry in sources? as it seems like the apps use their own update system and not the system update.01:12
koding123lazyPower, actually the point behind that question is is the ubuntu-make method preferred over a PPA officially?01:17
lazyPowerah, that i cannot answer. i think thats personal preference at any rate01:20
lazyPowerif you want to track bleeding edge vs wait for a package for sanitary install/removal01:21
koding123lazyPower, ok thanks.01:24
koding123lazyPower, you cleared a lot of doubts, thanks, good to know its officially supported/being developed by ubuntu/canonical developers as well.01:26

robertoperoHi all! I would like to buy the bq phone today. I store my contact in my google account, so I can sync it to the Ubuntu phone without problem, but what's about with the SMS? Can I copy it somehow to the device. I use Android 4.4 now.07:50
Scooty-loodoesn't sound like it07:57
Scooty-loobut I don't actually know07:57
Scooty-looI think you can put messages onto sim on android, but I don't know whether ubuntu touch can read that07:58
robertoperoHmm... It's intresting. Thanks. If anbody has an idea just tell it :)08:00
Scooty-looto put message onto sim on android press and hold that thread and see if there08:00

Scooty-loosounds like I can just wait then, why the rush08:06
popeythe shipping method seems broken08:06
Mirvfor me it looks like there'd be a bit too much white space. can someone paste a screenshot of http://ubuntu.bq.com/ where there is some sort of button like "Continue", "Buy", "Add to basket" or anything?08:06
Penseedamn try to buy now, delivery in March -> no way08:07

skeritEvery time you change the country it makes an ajax call to get the shipping options, but if there's a 502 error on the other side it won't appear to do anything08:39
mokmeisterI just get error msg when I click through on the purchase, boohoo08:39
skeritYeah mokmeister, the server is having difficulties. (That's putting it kindly)08:40

rpadovanioSoMoN, o/ So I started to create the settings ui, and I think I found an elegant (but simple) solution for the submenu, I would like your opinion :-)10:04
rpadovanihttps://code.launchpad.net/~rpadovani/webbrowser-app/settingsPage/+merge/24929410:04
rpadovaniatm it's only the ui, there is no function linked yet10:04
rpadovanialso, I created a property showNotImplementedItems to show/hide not yet implemented functionality. For now only privacy setting is visible, but if you change it to true you can see all settings that are in design spec10:05
rpadovanino hurry anyway, until Sat/Sun I don't think I'll be able to work on it again10:06
oSoMoNrpadovani, thanks, I’ll take a quick look. Note that I’m off tomorrow and Friday, so I won’t be able to properly review it before Monday anyway10:07
rpadovanioSoMoN, okay. Anyway, how you want to proceed? It's quite useless right now, do you want I try to link (or create) functions to privacy?10:08

oSoMoNrpadovani, at the moment I think only the options for which there is backend code ready should be visible (i.e. atm it will only be "clear browsing history"). It will look very empty, true, but we have to start somewhere :) Then you could move on to working on the search engines list model10:14

popeymaybe they thought we'll sell maybe a few per hour over the day, then close the shutters11:13
popeyand people will be wanting to buy one next time..11:13
k1lor maybe devices that got caught in the server issue? hp/palm did this on their firesale since the online shop system did hold back some devices to not sell devices doubled11:13

sturmflut-workBq could really do themselves a favor and release the Ubuntu firmware images for the E4.5. ATM they probably have to manually reflash all their Android stock to Ubuntu, why not let the user do it?12:15
popeythats not how it works12:15
popeythe phones are flashed in the factory, not by hand.12:15
sturmflut-workpopey: They make money in all cases, regardless if I buy the Android version and flash it or if I buy the Ubuntu Edition.12:16
popeynot exactly resource efficient or scalable to have someone sat flashing phones.12:16

ckingogra_, it does not add much, and it is useful for debugging wakey processes using eventstat12:24

TassadarI don't think you have any idea what ubuntu touch is to be honest Oo14:30
SiilwynNext week already?14:30
Tassadaradding kde would most assuredly not be part of the device-specific parts, and I highly doubt kde works with phone screens, let alone MIR14:31

Tassadarthe devices tar is just android build from phablet.ubuntu.com, I don't know how the ubuntu tar gets build right now14:34
Tassadarmy server just downloads it from the official one14:34
TopGearHu, the next sale is next week? That's not really a 9-18 flash sale, BQ...14:35
RiddellTassadar: right, and you use ubuntu-device-flash for that I guess, is there something in ubuntu-device-flash to do the remixing or do you add that yourself?14:36
beunoTopGear, I think they expected stock to last longer on each batch  :)14:36
TassadarI have no idea what do you mean by remixing14:36
TassadarI just add like two files needed for hammerhead to the tar14:36
ogra_Riddell, why would you touch the device tarball at all ?14:37
Riddellogra_: I won't, I'll be touching the ubuntu tar, but I wonder what the easiest way to do that is, if ubuntu-device-flash has a nifty way to do it or it needs some extra scripting14:38
ogra_you should just pull it as is from Tassadar's server into yours ... and make your server provide a different rootfs14:38
ogra_with kubuntu ...14:38
ogra_ubuntu-device-flash only downloads and copies the files14:39
ogra_it doesnt touch the contents14:39
Riddellogra_: right, so my question is how to provide a different rootfs14:39
Riddelldoes that come from the preinstall-touch file at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/20150210/ ?14:40
ogra_yeah14:40

kenvandinebfiller, do you know when the gsettings schema change for mms-group-chat-enabled might land in rtm?17:22
kenvandinei guess that won't help either, because they'll sync it... and whack the other vibrations setting17:22
bfillerkenvandine: not sure when mms group chat is milestoned for17:22
kenvandinebfiller, we have a problem with the schemas, the other vibration branch landed in trunk and rtm, but not vivid17:23
kenvandinethat package is usually synced from vivid to rtm17:23
kenvandineand i need to get it in vivid17:23
kenvandinei tried a sync from rtm to vivid, but that loses the group mms change17:23
kenvandineso no good17:23
seb128kenvandine, wfm if you want to do that17:24
kenvandineseb128, i think a manual upload of the schema package is the only solution17:24
kenvandineok, i'll upload what's in trunk and push directly to trunk with the changelog change17:24
kenvandineoh... or i could propose a branch against trunk for a no change rebuild :)17:24
kenvandinethen put that in the silo :)17:24
seb128yeah17:25
bfillerkenvandine: it's fine if the schema change for mms gets into rtm - we are not exposing it yet on the UI17:26
bfillerso don't think it would hurt17:26
bfillerand we'll want it soon anyway17:26

kenvandineseb128, ^^17:28
kenvandinemind a review?17:28
SturmFlutNeo31: Now the question is: For how many minutes were they selling phones at 12.000 orders per minute? The first "out of stock" reports came in at about 9:40 am, the german shop started reporting "Out of stock" at about 10:20 am. So let's say they were effectively selling phones for about 45 minutes. At that rate, that would be half a million phones17:31
SturmFlutWhich just can't be right17:32
seb128kenvandine, done17:33
kenvandineseb128, thx17:33
Neo31SturmFlut, " receiving over 12,000 orders per minute" doesn't mean successful orders, they have meant order request which most of it failed.17:36
Neo31we all seen the server issues the morning and they explained that they are sorry about that issue17:36
Neo31it is absolutely 12000 order request and not successful order17:37
SturmFlutNeo31: I know, but that's no how the english language works. "receiving over 12,000 orders per minute" means that you actually got 12.000 orders per minute which you now have to fulfill. In all other cases one would write "order attempts" or "requests" or "clicks" or whatever. The statement Bq made on Twitter is incorrect and misleading.17:40
SturmFlutI got my Aquaris E4.5 with Android within three days, BTW17:41
kenvandinekind of sucks to have installed that bad version of the schemas which kept unity8 from starting17:42
* kenvandine shakes fist at gsettings17:42
* kenvandine blames desrt, good thing he's not in this channel to defend himself :-D17:43
zapa_anyone got any ideas how many E4.5 units were sold today?17:49
zapa_really hope the flash launch was a success :D I want more, high spec, phones out there :)17:49
SturmFlutzapa_: Someone on G+ claimed that someone from Bq told him that it was just 250 units in the morning. Bq themselves claim 12.000 orders per minute.17:51
zapa_well this morning only a few people managed to buy before the website went full crash-fest17:52
zapa_or it could have been 12.000 page refresh on the buy page :D17:52
zapa_would be cool if they managed to sell >20K devices. For a flash sale, that looks great17:53
dobeywell, if they actually sold 12K/min and sold out in 9 min, then that's 108K phones sold17:55
ogra_and if it only were 250 units you at least know the upper and the lower margin now :P17:56
ogra_so much fun to speculate on numbers :)17:56
zapa_it's a big gap there :D17:56
zapa_still, if they did sell 108K phones, then wooho! Soulds like a success17:56
dobeyi doubt it was only 250 units, simply from a manufacturing cost perspective17:56
zapa_now we need more manufacturers!17:57
ogra_dobey, i was just connecting the numbers from the backlog in here :)17:57
dobeyogra_: yeah, i'm just providing more data to speculate on ;)17:57
ogra_haha17:57
zapa_was there any announcement on a ubuntu tablet or something?17:58
zapa_that's what I really want17:58
dobeyno, but you can buy a 2013 nexus 7, or a nexus 10, and install ubuntu on it if you want one now17:58
zapa_can't find any 2013 n7 here (second hand only) and the n10 more expensive than the n918:00
SturmFlutLet's be realistic: The whole mobile market in spain is less than 20 million devices, Bq has a market share of about 3 percent. That means they sell less than 600.000 devices a year, or about 1500 devices a day. I highly doubt that the flash sale today sold more devices than Bq usually sells within two weeks, so that would mean the number can't at any rate be higher than 15.00018:02
lazyPowerI have a question regarding releases / channels - and the today scope that i've seen referenced in promo material18:03
lazyPoweris this part of a customized image or is my ubuntu app store fu really weak?18:03
SturmFlutdobey: 108K is impossible, at 170 € per unit that would mean they made more than 15% of their annual revenue in just one hour18:04
ogra_lazyPower, not sure about your app store foo ...18:04
ogra_lazyPower, but the Today and Nearby scopes are bq material18:04
lazyPowerah ok. so its not something i'll ever get/see on a vanilla/dev flash.18:04
ogra_it is their customization18:04
dobeylazyPower: not at the moment, at least18:05
ogra_it might go into the store, but likely not right now :)18:05
dobeySturmFlut: are you talking about only spain, or all of europe?18:05
lazyPowerthanks for the info gents18:05
* lazyPower hattips18:05
SturmFlutdobey: All of Europe. Mundo Reader, the parent company of Bq, is active in most of Europe and made 115 million euros of revenue in 2013. Their market share hasn't grown much and they are basically unknown outside of spain.18:08
SturmFlutdobey: It would be quite spectacular if a company which produces about half a million phones a year takes the risk of producing 108K phones with an untested new operating system, and then sells them within an hour ;)18:18
dobeywell, being the first real ubuntu phone has certainly garnered a lot more media attention across a much wider spectrum than just spain :)18:21
adrian47ogra_, UT dbus needs to have working wifi?18:23
ogra_nah18:24
ogra_you need a loopback interface up and running though ... so localhost can be found18:24
adrian47cause yesterday i get dbus errors in ~.cache/upstart, look at this part paste.ubuntu.com/1017636518:26
adrian47it's from dmesg18:27
ogra_read again ;)18:27
ogra_(it doesnt say dbus)18:28
ogra_looks like some process to push the wifi firmware to the device ... something that runs on the android side18:29
adrian47oh, my bad :)18:29

adrian47ogra_, I inserted sim card and it works like before :)19:41
ogra_heh19:41
adrian47ogra_, I removed it morning and then problems appear :)19:42
ogra_iteresting ... nothing should really depend on the presence of a sim19:42
ogra_from the boot perspective at least19:42
kassis BQ 4.5e ( ubuntu touch mobile ) avaibale in bruxelles in France .19:43

=== rickspencer3_ is now known as rickspencer3
dobeyogra_, adrian47: is that about dbus? if it works ok when you have actual network access, then the problem is in the configuration of the loopack interface for 127.0.0.119:47
ogra_kass, http://www.bq.com/fr/ubuntu.html ... but you can only order it during "flash sales" they get announced on the twitter account of Ubuntu or bq19:49
adrian47dobey, without sim I was getting bootloop, with sim i see spinning logo19:49
ogra_https://twitter.com/bqreaders19:49
kassis it available in the store ?19:51
dobeykass: you have to wait for the next flash sale19:51
kassgood .19:54
kassthank you .19:54
adrian47but now adb didn' works again :( i see it as device in adb devices but when adb shell i see still clear line in terminal19:54
zapa_someone mentioned last night that SDL is available on ubuntu touch20:10
zapa_tried a simple hello world and including SDL2, just to check <SDL2/SDL.h>20:11
zapa_builds on PC, fails on target device with "no such file"20:11
zapa_anyone mind shining some light on what should I do?20:11
ogra_zapa_, sdl isnt preinstalled, no20:12
ogra_Mir supports execution of SDL2 code20:12
ogra_if you want to provide apps using SDL2 you have to ship the libs in your click package20:12
zapa_understood20:13
SturmFlutzapa_: I was about to build a template for that, https://github.com/Sturmflut/ubuntu-touch-sdl-template , but it's heavily outdated20:13
SturmFlut"Builds, packages, fails on the device."20:14
* SturmFlut has no time for Ubuntu Touch development ATM because of his stupid job20:15
zapa_^ tell me about it!20:15
zapa_actually thinking of taking a 2 week leave so I can setup some stuff for myself20:16
SturmFlutWell, the job is actually awesome, but it doesn't have anything to do with mobile devices. Exactly the opposite20:17
nhainespopey: the Ubuntu gift boxes at the Ubuntu Insiders event had a little brochure that explained the Ubuntu phone's interface.  If that wasn't bq-specific, can I get the artwork so I can have it printed for the Ubuntu booth at SCALE?20:18
popeynhaines: hmm, I dunno where that came from.20:19
popeynhaines: I'll ask.20:19
nhainesI wasn't able to tell whether or not the instructions came inside the bq box or the gift box.20:19
kenvandinemaybe from BQ20:19
nhainespopey: Thanks.  I'd love to have anything at all like that for the attendees.  :)20:19
adrian47ok, I'm back adb works20:27
maettu_hi i just installed the multi-rom app, there are diffrent Version of Ubuntu touch20:32
maettu_like utopic / utopic-custumized /utopic-demo /utopic-costumized-generic20:33
=== rickspencer3_ is now known as rickspencer3
maettu_now my question is which should i choose for installation20:34
adrian47dobey, where is this configuration? unity8 didn't want to start cause of dbus20:34
dobeyadrian47: the lo interface is by default configured in /etc/network/interfaces20:48
dobeywhy do people ask questions and then immediately quit. grr20:49
adrian47dobey, thanks i see it but what now..  :)20:52
dobeyadrian47: i don't know. i don't have your phone and i'm not porting to it, so i can't really tell you what's not working on it :)20:53
maettu_hello i just installed ubuntu touch via MultiROM app on my Nexus 720:59
maettu_How long does it take to boot for the first time?20:59
maettu_I see the Ubuntu-logo spinning arround...21:00
dobeyit takes a while the first time21:01
maettu_a while like 15min or longer?21:01
dobeythe big logo with the orange progress bar underneath, or just the small logo by itself?21:02
maettu_small one in the middle21:02
taiebotIt would be nice to release the today Nearby and photo scopes for other platforms. I find it quite sad that it is not made available to people who are testing, developing and trying the phone.21:03
pngo_how can I list mods in ubuntu-touch? lsmod does not work.21:04
SturmFlutpngo_: What mods? Kernel modules?21:06
pngo_yes21:06
dobeypngo_: you might have to do it inside the lxc container that the android bits are in. you can probably reboot to recovery and do it in there, too21:06
dobeyalthough i'm not sure if that will be useful to do for anything21:07
pngo_dobey, can you tell me why I can't do it in terminal?21:08
SturmFlutpngo_: Just look at the content of /sys/module/21:09
dobeytaiebot: yes, you're not the first to have asked about them. the request has been made known21:09
pngo_ok21:09
dobeypngo_: i would suspect it has something to do with the way the android kernel bits are used21:10
SturmFlutlsmod just parses the content of /proc/modules, but the strange thing is that /proc/modules is empty. Despite procfs being correctly mounted etc.21:12
SturmFlutAre Android kernels bult without module support?21:14
SturmFlutI never noticed21:14
dobeyi doubt it21:14
dobeythere's /system/lib/modules/3.4.0-6-mako/ and there are .ko files in it21:16
=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
SturmFlutdobey: You are right. /proc/modules is empty because apparently the system doesn't load a single module by default.21:18
SturmFlutpngo_: Does lsmod fail with an error or does it simply not output anything?21:19
pngo_no output21:19
Rubesmancwayne: Are we going to get new today and nearby scopes for the nexus 4?21:19
SturmFlutpngo_: That's not the same as "doesn't work". It doesn't output anything because there are actually no modules loaded. If you load one, it will show up.21:19
pngo_so how can I disable/blacklist sound card? is it possible?21:20
pngo_ok but looks like it works different than linux desktop21:21
SturmFlutHm the sound drivers are not built as modules, so blacklisting them won't work21:21
pngo_so is there a way to blacklist drivers?21:25
cwayneRubesman: ill have to check, not yet at least21:29
nhainescwayne: how about now?21:31
Rubesmancwayne: Thanks! Is this stuff made by bq then? Are there in general other device specific functions or apps?21:32
dobeywhy would you blacklist sound drivers on a phone?21:32
nhainesdobey: because you hate phone calls?21:32
dobeynhaines: remove the SIM?21:32
nhainesNot good enough!  The calls might still get in somehow!  :)21:33
cwayneRubesman: it's made by canonical (by my team actually :P), but I'm unsure of the plans for releasing them atm21:35
pngo_just testing touch's flexibility. just like I can mute mic but can not adjust  mic volume.21:35
pngo_I like user control over device. this is why I like Linux over windows.21:37
Rubesmancwayne: Alright thanks! Keep up the good work and dont forget about the nexus!21:37
nhainescwayne: So my question is how did bq get the Today and NearBy scopes to the left of the App scope and how can I do that for weather?  <321:39
cwaynenhaines: magic :P  but get to your manage dash screen, then press and hold weather, and you can drag it around the change the order21:42
cwaynebut the way today/nearby did it was through the custom tarball, dconf keys and whatnot21:42
zapa_so in order to create an app I have to have a manifest.json file added to my project. Guess starting with C++ Project isn't enough21:43
nhainescwayne: ooh, that must be really new, because it hasn't worked even a couple of months ago.  :)21:44
nhainesErr, not sure why my brain put in months when I meant weeks.21:44
cwaynenhaines: yeah, it's from the 'manage dash' redesign :)21:44
cwayneoh, should've been there weeks ago21:44
cwaynejust not very discoverable tbh21:44
nhainesOh, it changes to a "manage" app.21:45
nhainesyeah, I was just about to say, I'll bet that doesn't clear the usability tests.21:45
dobeypngo_: mic volume can be adjusted, there just is no ui for it22:03
dobeypngo_: kenvandine filed a bug exactly for that, the other day even22:04
dobeyzapa_: if you use the ubuntu templates it will be there22:05
pngo_dobey, do you know if it via pactl ?22:10
dobeypngo_: yes, you should be able to control the input volume via pulseaudio22:20
pngo_I was testing it last night and muting was only working. I was unable to control mic volume. I will test  more22:24
