Knuckl3head | Hello? | 03:35 |
---|---|---|
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: yes? | 03:38 |
Knuckl3head | I am trying to find ways of extracting drivers from an android device, is there any information on how I should go about this? | 03:38 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: what are you trying to do exactly? | 03:39 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: porting ubuntu touch to a new device? | 03:40 |
Knuckl3head | Yeah, I'm just trying to get an initial image at the moment. | 03:40 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: what kind of device do you have? | 03:41 |
Knuckl3head | It's a Polaroid A8 Tablet. | 03:41 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: maybe the XDA forums have a porting to your device? | 03:41 |
Knuckl3head | The XDA forums? I haven't checked there yet, hold on. | 03:42 |
Knuckl3head | How would I find whether or not they have a port on there? | 03:43 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: search for you device name, and check if someone already busy on it | 03:43 |
Knuckl3head | Just rooting software. | 03:45 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: for now these are the supported devices: | 03:46 |
lotuspsychje | !devices | Knuckl3head | 03:46 |
ubot5 | Knuckl3head: You can find the full list of devices, official images, community images, and works in progress at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices | 03:46 |
Knuckl3head | So does this mean that there's no way to extract the drivers? | 03:46 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: but many handymen, are portin to cool devices, nexus5, one+one phones, tablet brands and such | 03:46 |
Knuckl3head | So I'll have to buy a 200$+ tablet to install Ubuntu Touch? | 03:48 |
lotuspsychje | Knuckl3head: if you wanna be safe, buy a second hand nexus7 | 03:48 |
lotuspsychje | i run touch on it and works like a charm | 03:49 |
Knuckl3head | I'll just email the devs or contact the mailing list to see if they can help me. | 03:50 |
lotuspsychje | sure, and also idle here when the devs are waking up | 03:50 |

brunch875 | Good morning in the morning! | 06:43 |
dadexix86 | hi all. how does the auto brightness work? Is it measured by the frontal camera? how much battery does this automated thing usually drain? | 09:14 |
nhaines | There's usually a dedicated photosensor for this next to the proximity sensor that the phone uses to turn off the screen when you put it to your face during a call. | 09:15 |
dadexix86 | nhaines, thanks. on the bq device is this the first one from the left, then? | 09:19 |
nhaines | That I don't know. | 09:23 |
dadexix86 | nhaines, ok thanks :) do you know something about the amount of battery (usually) used by that feature? | 09:25 |
nhaines | dadexix86: no, but it's probably only used when the screen is on and photosensors tend to be variable impedence resistors, so probably basically none. | 09:54 |
dadexix86 | nhaines, thanks :) | 09:58 |
nhaines | dadexix86: you're welcome. :) | 10:01 |
Mad_Dud | guys, are there any connection problems reported in Germany for cellular networs in aquariz e4.5 ubuntu edition? | 10:31 |
Mad_Dud | i'm getting Sim 1 "unregistered" | 10:31 |
Mad_Dud | when i go to Rellular options, choose 'carrier' it says 'none' and when i click it (it's supposed to give a list of available networks?), there is only 'automatically' option available | 10:34 |
brunch875 | ahooy! | 11:02 |
dadexix86 | Mad_Dud, what is your carrier? | 11:30 |
Mad_Dud | dadexix86: vodafone | 11:31 |
Mad_Dud | vodafone DE, to be specific | 11:31 |
dadexix86 | Then yes, there is a problem, see bug 1436545 :) I have O2 DE and it works fine :) | 11:32 |
ubot5 | bug 1436545 in ofono (Ubuntu RTM) "Mobile data not working for numerous German carriers" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1436545 | 11:32 |
Mad_Dud | dadexix86: damn it! | 11:33 |
Mad_Dud | ok. thanks | 11:33 |
ogra_ | Mad_Dud, despite the bug (which actually claims vodafone works) ... you shoul din any case get a GSM connection, this seems like a new and unrelated bug | 11:42 |
ogra_ | note that there is another bug where it takes 5min+ to register to GSM | 11:44 |
lotuspsychje | great work on the browser-app setting guys | 11:45 |

NIN101 | how long will the aquariz e4.5 receive updates? does this depend on BQ? | 13:13 |
Nothing_Much | Does Ubuntu Touch support .debs normally? | 16:05 |
rbasak | Nothing_Much: only if you remount the root filesystem read/write. That breaks image-based updates though. | 16:12 |
Nothing_Much | rbasak: ohh.. | 16:20 |
Nothing_Much | will .debs be supported normally in the future? | 16:20 |
AskUbuntu | no notifications from calendar and reminders apps on Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Editon | http://askubuntu.com/q/608422 | 16:24 |
rbasak | Nothing_Much: no. Otherwise users would need dist-upgrade to work, and that's fraught with issues. | 16:33 |
Nothing_Much | ah, so Click is the way of the future? | 16:34 |
rbasak | Nothing_Much: yes, for stuff being added to the core system. | 16:34 |
rbasak | (as opposed to for the core system itself) | 16:38 |

Se7 | hi guyssss | 18:04 |
Se7 | i was thinking.... | 18:05 |
Se7 | i m left hand it s possible to move the bar on the right and side ? | 18:05 |
Se7 | sometime it s a bit weird to use it with the left thumb on the left and side of the phone | 18:07 |
Se7 | it s would be great for the market as well i guess :) | 18:08 |
dadexix86 | Se7, I was thinking about the same yesterday (although I am right handed). How do you feel with the desktop? Is it okay having it on the left or would it be better having everything inverted? | 18:19 |
Se7 | on desktop it s different | 18:23 |
Se7 | because you got the pointer | 18:24 |
Se7 | not the finger :) | 18:24 |
cwayne_ | popey, don't suppose you're around? | 18:24 |
Se7 | and it s better on the desktop because you got everythink on left | 18:24 |
popey | cwayne_: for you, always | 18:24 |
Se7 | lol | 18:24 |
Se7 | this a quick answer | 18:25 |
cwayne_ | popey, got an update to untappd if you don't mind :) fixes an account issue dobey_ was seein' | 18:25 |
popey | cwayne_: done | 18:27 |
cwayne_ | popey, <3 | 18:27 |

Se7 | dadexix86, you think its possible? | 19:41 |
dadexix86 | Se7, in general? Maybe. Without rewriting a ton of code? Nope :( but probably the nice thing to do would to have a switch in the settings. Having the launcher on one side and not above/below it is actually important to have the possibly to move the launcher on the other side. | 19:45 |
dadexix86 | Se7 I strongly suggest that you fill a bug and wait for the developers to give an answer. | 19:46 |
Se7 | ok tnx for the answer | 19:47 |
Se7 | have a switch would be very great | 19:48 |
Se7 | but yu think it s a bug? | 19:48 |
dadexix86 | Se7, well, yes. it is a usability bug for me :) | 20:09 |
Se7 | ok just posted the question :) | 20:10 |
dadexix86 | can you link it please? :) | 20:14 |
Se7 | i posted in ask ubuntu not in a bug | 20:15 |
Se7 | http://askubuntu.com/questions/608483/launcher-ubuntu-touch | 20:15 |
AskUbuntu | Launcher ubuntu touch | http://askubuntu.com/q/608483 | 20:16 |
dadexix86 | thanks! | 20:18 |
Se7 | no probs :) | 20:18 |
Se7 | it s ok there ir i have to report a new bug in launchpad? | 20:18 |
popey | i think you may be missing that the right edge is used for switching applications | 20:22 |
popey | which is generally something you do more often than launching applications | 20:22 |
popey | if you move launcher to the right, then switching will obviously move to the left | 20:22 |
popey | if you do that then you have to stretch every time you switch apps | 20:22 |
Se7 | popey, i dont agree | 20:26 |
popey | you don't agree with what? | 20:27 |
Se7 | i don t understand very well what you mean for stretch | 20:27 |
Se7 | but i dont agree with that | 20:28 |
Se7 | popey> which is generally something you do more often than launching applications | 20:28 |
popey | People generally switch applications (like ALT+TAB) _way_ more than they launch apps | 20:28 |
Se7 | when i m at work wich it s a very boring job | 20:28 |
Se7 | i launch application every second...close and open fb | 20:29 |
Se7 | ebay | 20:29 |
Se7 | telegramm as well | 20:29 |
popey | You open an app, and then _close_ it? | 20:29 |
popey | So you have no apps running? | 20:30 |
Se7 | no | 20:30 |
Se7 | if i watch on fb after i close it | 20:30 |
Se7 | i don t leave apps running in background | 20:31 |
Se7 | save battery :) | 20:31 |
popey | That's not common behaviour. | 20:31 |
popey | Apps on Ubuntu don't run in the background. | 20:32 |
popey | So it saves battery without you having to do that. | 20:32 |
Se7 | ok ok this is another think i guess | 20:33 |
Se7 | i was talking about the comfort for me that i m left hand | 20:35 |
popey | ah I see. | 20:36 |
popey | I misunderstood that bit, sorry. | 20:36 |
Se7 | no probs popey | 20:37 |
SturmFlut | D****d I crashed my E4.5 again | 21:52 |
popey | D****d? | 21:54 |
SturmFlut | popey: It starts with "D" and ends with "amned" | 21:54 |
SturmFlut | Every time it happens I can't subsequently get an ABD shell, so no possibility to debug it | 21:55 |
SturmFlut | Ooooh! It came back to life! | 21:56 |
SturmFlut | This is new | 21:56 |
SturmFlut | I'll file a bug tomorrow, but if anybody wants to look at the logs at this exact moment: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10811672/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/10811675/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/10811679/ | 22:02 |
Thandlovsky | If anyone is interested, I have f2fs working on the ubuntu touch image and it works great I think you guys should check it out | 23:57 |
