nocturnHi, I posted earlier about the unbootable Meizu I received, I tried to reflash the phone but it seems the stock meizu recovery image has no ADB08:07
nocturnAny idea how I can load a recovery image with ADB enabled on it?08:07
nocturnusing fastboot as that is the only working option08:07
ogra_nocturn, there was a description how to flash on the mailing list08:09
nocturnogra_, I tried this one already https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg13878.html08:10
ogra_right, that should work08:11
nocturnI loaded that image with fastboot, no issues, than flashed, which also works.  Then the desktop says failed to enter recovery mode08:12
nocturnthe phone is in recovery08:12
nocturnseems still without ADB support08:12
brunch875jgdx: ping08:13
sturmflut2nocturn: While the phone is in recovery, can you manually run "adb shell"?08:15

davmor2Morning all08:17
brunch875good morning!08:17
* davmor2 finally clears the spam of popey putting my nick in a tweet08:17
nocturnsturmflut2, no, adb does not see the phone while it is in recovery.  fastboot sees it when it is in fastboot mode08:18
sturmflut2nocturn: Not even if you run adb as root?08:18
sturmflut2nocturn: adb kill-server08:18
sturmflut2nocturn: sudo adb shell08:18
nocturnsturmflut2, adb and fastboot both ran as root.  I will try the kill command later (don't have the phone near right now).  I did try it several times with reboots of my laptop in between.08:19
sturmflut2Give me a sec to try it on my MX408:21
ogra_nocturn, hmm, you should perhaps use the --recovery-image switch in ubuntu-device-flash instqaed of flashing it manually08:21
popeydavmor2: :)08:21
bujjihow do i install ubuntu on mobile phone08:21
nocturnogra_, also tried that: sudo ubuntu-device-flash touch --channel=ubuntu-touch/stable/meizu.en --recovery-image recovery.img --bootstrap08:22
nocturnrecovery.img being the one I downloaded from the list08:22

nocturnThe phone says tranfer ok several times and reboots08:22
popeybujji: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/installing-ubuntu-for-devices/ for installing ubuntu on a device08:22
alextunocturn, hi, I just join this thread,does the issue in your side is you do u-d-f with the special recovery.img and --bootstrap in fastboot mode, then it failed?08:25
alextunocturn, sorry, I missed previous conversion.08:26
sturmflut2nocturn: I just downloaded the image to my 15.04 desktop, put arale in Fastboot mode, "fastboot boot recovery.img", waited a bit, "adb shell", immediately got a prompt. So it actually should work.08:26
nocturnHi alextu, I got my Meizu MX and it will not boot (shows logo forever).  Seems like ADB is turned off for recovery in production models08:26
nocturnso I am trying to flash it with an new firmware to see if it will work08:27
alextunocturn, do you mean device failed in 1st time booting ?08:27
nocturnalextu, yes.  It goes to the spinning Ubuntu logo and stays there.  I found a thread on answers.ubuntu of someone who had the same issue after his first update08:28
nocturnSo I figured it may be a bad firmware08:28
ogra_nocturn, which logo exactly does it show ... the white screen or the spinning ubuntu logo on black background ?08:28
alextunocturn, did you try "$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" im fastboot mode, to check if the special recovery.img can be flash and adb works in that special recovery ?08:28
nocturnogra_, black background with a red circle with the spinning logo08:29
nocturnalextu, yes, I did and the phone says transfer succeeded08:29
nocturnbut ADB is still off in recovery mode08:29
ogra_that means your UI session cant start, but the OS got atleast to a basic boot08:29
alextunocturn, can you please check the md5sum with this ? http://people.canonical.com/~alextu/tangxi/recovery/md5sum08:31
ogra_alextu, are you sure the img is up to date ?08:31
alextuogra_, yes, that's the only one recovery we use to enable adb so far.08:32
ogra_ok08:32
nocturnalextu, md5sum matches08:32
alextunocturn, not sure what's happen, I afraid the recovery did not really be flashed.08:34
nocturnalextu, It looks like that yes08:34
alextunocturn, the device you got from China or EU ?08:34
nocturnalextu, EU, I won an invite :-)08:35
ogra_sturmflut2, but you got a different device (i'm not even sure the insider phones got flashed in the factory, perhaps alextu knows)08:38
alextunocturn, I guess the only way is searching for customer support  :( , we can do nothing without fastboot flasing function.08:39
nocturnalextu, I contacted Meizu on friday already, but still awaiting their reply... hope they are responsive08:40
alextuogra_, what's the issue happens in  sturmflut2's side?08:41
alextunocturn, I hope so ....08:41
ogra_alextu, sturmflut2 tireed the recovery.img on his phone, but he has the same device you and me have ... while nocturn has one of the first devices coming from the factory line08:43
ogra_*tried08:44
nocturnogra_, Could it be that Meizu somehow locked out recovery?08:46
ogra_nocturn, well, it could be an issue with the factory devices, it could be a faulty MMC on your device specifically, really hard to tell without being able to debug it further08:47
alextuogra_, do you mean sturmflut2's device came from the same device bunch as ours?08:47
ogra_alextu, right, sturmflut2 is an ubuntu phone insider, they got the same model we have (the grey one with the other MMC)08:47
alextuogra_, sturmflut2 we can chat that in Tangxi channel check if that is a new issue :)08:50
ogra_alextu, oh, where is that ? here on freenode ?08:50
conyoowhy is meizu shipping with the wrong charger? LOL https://twitter.com/CosmicYes/status/61702686699881267208:51

ogra_alextu, no, but what i wonder is if anyone tested any actual device with the 16G MMC ... there is a HW difference we dont seem to test08:52
ogra_john-mcaleely, ^^^ do you know ?08:53
alextuogra_,  we have 16G MMC in hand and also used for QA , so it should works fine.08:54
ogra_ah, phew08:54
* john-mcaleely moves along08:54
conyoowhat is the External Drives app on Meizu MX4?08:56

ProstheticShey guys, you know how you cant execute things in your home directory, theres a fairly simple way round it, if you install screen/tmux, and then ssh in, and launch it, you can then execute things in your home dir from non ssh sessions, so long as the first instance was launched outside of ssh10:01
ProstheticSIE form my terminal app installed from the store i can then execute in my home dir, (i like this) but i thought you might want to know10:01
sturmflut2sil2100: Ping10:29
popeyProstheticS: i think we should fix that10:29
sil2100sturmflut2: pong10:29
ogra_ProstheticS, there is some initiative to actually exclude the terminal from app lifecycle mgmt10:29
ogra_and to losen the apparmor restrictions10:30
ProstheticSok, i just thought you guys would like to know, as i saw that it was obviously attempted to shut down executions in /home , and this was a fairly easy way round10:33
ProstheticSi like being able ot execute my scripts in home though :p10:33
ProstheticSthe down side , or biggest downside, is that it is completely possible to do this all from the device itself, because you could ssh from device to device and then start screen/tmux and then disconnect and connect just to screen/tmux and be done with it10:34
ProstheticSshould i submit a bug for it? or just leave it with you guys ?10:35
sturmflut2mzanetti: Ping11:10
mzanettisturmflut2, wassup11:10
ogra_ProstheticS, if you ssh into the device that means that the owner actively enabled ssh and put your key in place11:11
ogra_not a bug at all ...11:11
sturmflut2mzanetti: The Unity8 code that's currently in rc-proposed and will become OTA-5 soon, does it really rotate an app if it doesn't specify any preference in the .desktop file?11:13
mzanettisturmflut2, yes11:14
sturmflut2mzanetti: But that breaks lots of apps? I would have expected that the default is "portrait only", like it was before11:15
mzanettisturmflut2, the decision was to change the default... it doesn't break too many...11:15
sturmflut2mzanetti: It breaks the most prominent games, like Neverball, Neverputt, Cut the Rope etc.11:16
mzanettisturmflut2, they'll be updated soon11:17
mzanettiI'll write a reminder11:17
popeyi filed https://github.com/pseuudonym404/neverball-touch/issues/8 so they can update their desktop file11:18
sturmflut2mzanetti: I don't really understand the need to change the default, but okay11:20
mzanettisturmflut2, because otherwise we'll have 90% of apps not rotating for no reason11:21
mzanettithis way people will either fix the few issues that they see with rotating or at least disable it manually. should get us more apps with rotation support11:21
sturmflut2bzoltan_: Maybe add the line "X-Ubuntu-Supported-Orientations=landscape,portrait" to the Qt Creator templates, so people don't have to search around too much? Or even add an option to the wizards?11:22
sturmflut2mzanetti: After careful consideration of your input I think you're right ;)11:23

pete-woodsso I'm doing nothing with the standard output / error besides forwarding it to the parent process (your test binary)12:08
mardypete-woods: mmm... maybe these processes are not started by my test, but auto-launched by the dbus-server itself?12:09
pete-woodsmardy: I'd investigate what dbusmock does with standard output, maybe it directs it somewhere?12:09

jgdxmpt, I never knew bug 1447601 existed. Do we really want settings all over the place? Won't call forwarding/waiting/services eventually affect more apps/scopes than dialer-app?12:29
ubot5bug 1447601 in ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) ""Phone" app settings are oddly in System Settings" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/144760112:29
mptjgdx, maybe they will, but I doubt it. Can you think of an example?12:32
jgdxmpt, not really. But let me refine my point: The phone settings today already have implications for more things* than the dialer app12:35
mptjgdx, * the Contacts app?12:35
jgdx* UX? In the lack of a better word. If you place a call from your car, the dialer-app isn't really involved from the p.o.v. of a user.12:36
jgdxand there's a scope wherein you can place calls, even though it launches the dialer-app12:37
jgdxor maybe I'm just reactionary12:37
jgdxI just remember this being one of the things I really liked on iOS. Most settings are in the system settings app.12:39
pmcgowanmpt, while you are here, was there a design for managing removable media12:40
mptjgdx, but that approach turned out to be a failure: http://bjango.com/articles/settingsapp/12:41
mptjgdx, I understand that ā€œPhoneā€ feels like such a fundamental feature of a smartphone that its settings should be part of System Settings. Thatā€™s why I put it there in the first place. Butā€¦12:44
jgdxyes, I regard phone features as a fundemental feature of the smartphone, which doesn't scale for convergence. :)12:45
mptjgdx, ā€¦But the consequence is, right now, the Phone app has a Settings button that takes you to System Settings > Phone. And then when you tap the Back button, you donā€™t actually go back to where you came from. That weirdness trumps vague feelings of fundamentality or out-of-app consequences. :-)12:47

pmcgowanmpt, who is writing that spec?12:53
pete-woodsjgdx: that's probably the easiest way of compiling it, yes12:53
mptjgdx, placing a call from your car, or from a scope, (a) I would expect the call to invoke the Phone app as normal, and (b) doesnā€™t involve any of the current or upcoming Phone settings anyway.12:53

sergiusensah, just pinged you guys as I didn't see nerochiaro, forgot Kaleo was on the camera app these days13:42
kenvandinejgdx, for me, in my office where my connection can be spotty, i was seeing the attached property change quite a bit13:42
kenvandineand the indicator didn't always reflect it13:42
jgdxkenvandine, okay.. I'm not sure I'll be able to test that specifically.13:43
kenvandineso what i did was disable the switch when it wasn't attached13:43
kenvandineand that seemed to fix the consistent failures13:43
kenvandinei think the problem was we tried to change the property when it wasn't attached, and it failed13:43
jgdxkenvandine, that makes sense. I never knew. How'd you figure that out?13:43
kenvandinereading the API docs :)13:44
kenvandinei was trying to figure out what could be causing it to fail to change with a useless error from ofono :)13:44
kenvandinethe API docs didn't specifically say it had to be attached, but it did infer that it had to talk to the carrier's network13:45
kenvandinei took a stab at logging the attached property on connMan13:45
jgdxhttps://github.com/rilmodem/ofono/blob/master/doc/call-settings-api.txt#L128 ?13:45
kenvandineand sure enough, it would change to false more often than the indicator would reflect it was disconnected13:45
jgdxlight on information :p13:45
jgdxkenvandine, great work13:46
kenvandineyeah, i was reading other areas13:46
kenvandinemakes me wonder if that's another bug though13:46
kenvandineshould the indicator icon change to disconnected everyting connMan.attached changes to false?13:46
kenvandineeverytime13:46
kenvandinejgdx, i also wonder if something we're doing in that plugin is triggering ofono to disconnect13:47
jgdxkenvandine, from just opening the panel you mean?13:49
kenvandinemaybe13:49
kenvandinewe just get the properties from callSettings13:49
kenvandineout of curiousity i'll run monitor-ofono for a while without settings, see if attached changes as much as i saw it on friday13:50

jgdxElleo, hi, on mako on a very recent image, the keyboard doesn't come up14:04
jgdxa reboot doesn't fix it14:04
Elleojgdx: what image?14:07
Elleojgdx: can you check whether maliit-server is running and if there's a crash file?14:07
Elleojgdx: we haven't landed anything recently for the keyboard except some autopilot stuff :/14:08
jgdxElleo, no crash file, will get you the details in a bug.14:08
Elleojgdx: great, thanks14:08
Elleojgdx: have you run autopilot tests on that at all? Just thinking based on what oSoMoN just said about the mouse switch, whether it's toggled the keyboard hiding mode when switching to windowed mode and never disabled it14:16
Elleojgdx: could you run "gsettings get com.canonical.keyboard.maliit stay-hidden" and see what you get?14:17
jgdxElleo, will do14:18

mr-tti'm trying to create a qml app in qtcreator(not ubuntu sdk), but it segfaults. anyone knows what to do about this?14:44
mr-tt(it segfaults when opening a .ui.qml file)14:44
sturmflut2zbenjamin, bzoltan_ : At least I've set "Enable debug helper" to "No"14:44
zbenjaminsturmflut2: still 100%?14:44
dholbachthanks jdstrand14:45
mr-ttsturmflut2: just joined, what is the issue that also happens on krillin?14:46
sturmflut2mr-tt: "python3 /tmp/qtc_device_applaunch.py /tmp/pandalove.sturmflut_0.3.5_all.click --hook appname" consuming 100% CPU while an app that has been launched from Qt Creator to run on the device is running. Sometimes this process even survives, it ran amok on my arale on saturday for 25 minutes until I noticed. By then the device was hot like Lava.14:47
zbenjaminsturmflut2: can not reproduce that, my app is running only 1% cpu useage14:50
sturmflut2zbenjamin: Which Ubuntu version on the host and which channel on the device?14:51
sturmflut2strace to the rescue...14:52
zbenjaminsturmflut2: hmm, its rc-proposed i think14:52
zbenjaminsturmflut2: you can just run the script yourself, its in /tmp after you deploy it from qtc14:53
mr-ttis there some good remote desktop tool to run ubuntu sdk from another machine?14:56
mr-ttquick and not consuming much cpu14:56
sturmflut2zbenjamin: It happens to me in all cases, run from Qt Creator or manually, webapp or qmlscene app. According to strace it's polling /home/phablet/.local/share/pandalove.sturmflut/pandalove.sturmflut_appname_0.3.5.stdout and /home/phablet/.local/share/pandalove.sturmflut/pandalove.sturmflut_appname_0.3.5.stderr like crazy14:56
xpheresthere is any rom of ubuntu touch for huawei y300?14:57
zbenjaminsturmflut2: yeah, thats a pipe, but if you disabled the debug helper it should not be there at all14:58
zbenjaminsturmflut2: err no i talk bs, its always there but not used14:59
zbenjaminsturmflut2: also i do not poll, i use a glib mainloop14:59
zbenjaminsturmflut2: the thing is, that code exists for over a year or so15:01
zbenjaminsturmflut2: so something on the device must have changed15:01
sturmflut2zbenjamin: How can I check if the debug helper is really disabled?15:01
zbenjaminsturmflut2: list the click package contents15:01
zbenjaminsturmflut2: if there is no qtc_device_debughelper.py in it , you should be fine15:01
zbenjaminsturmflut2: never pull the USB cable while you running a app deployed from QtC15:04
ProstheticShey guys, is there somewhere i can get the battery stats from on the command line, IE how much charge there is?15:06
sturmflut2zbenjamin: There is no helper in the deployed packages. Hm. This is what strace says while the script is running: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11831226/15:06
ogra_ProstheticS, tr "upower -d"15:07
mr-ttis there some way to reset the battery stats(like deleting batterystats.bin on android)?15:07
sturmflut2mr-tt: What's the goal? Reseting what the GUI displays?15:09
mr-ttsturmflut2: battery percentage display doesn't work correctly15:10
ogra_mr-tt, i doubt it would help hacking the UI for that15:10
sturmflut2mr-tt: Yep, but that's most likely a hardware or other low-level problem15:11
ogra_the bvalue coming from the container is more likely to be wrong15:11
mr-ttcould it be because it's reflashed from android to ubuntu? maybe something lowlevel leftover?15:11
mr-ttogra_: what container?15:11
ogra_sure, that could be ... not a use-case we ever test15:11
ogra_mr-tt, the container that the drivers run inside15:12
mr-ttogra_: bq offers the firmware officially, so it should be supported?15:12
ogra_well, then ask bq ... we definitely dont test for *removing* ubuntu15:12
ogra_(or re-adding it after you removed it)15:13
ogra_(or any kind of dual boot)15:13
mr-ttogra_: i bought the android e4.5 and flashed ubuntu15:13
ogra_ouch15:13
mr-tti don't dualboot15:13
ogra_well, then it could well be that there are some firmware bits in some rom somewhere15:14
ogra_(or nvram or whatever)15:14
mr-ttogra_: mtk-flash-tool doesn't overwrite that?15:15
ogra_no idea15:15
zbenjaminsturmflut2: i wonder why its polling, i used a glib mainloop to avoid that15:15
ogra_we usually dont use that in canonical15:15
ogra_the only supported tool to flash is ubuntu-device-flash15:15
mr-ttogra_: you need it to get from android to ubuntu15:15
ogra_(which wouldnt re-partition so you wouldnt be able to install on an android device)15:15
ogra_mr-tt, right, not a usecase we usually test or support, as i said15:16
ogra_great that it works for you ... but if there are bugs, you have to live with them i guess15:16
mr-ttsome people reflashed from native ubuntu to android and didn't report any issues(so far)15:16
mr-ttno issues except for battery percentage not decreasing while the phone is idling. when i use it, it decreases normally15:17
ogra_define idling15:17
ogra_screen off and locked ?15:17
mr-ttyep15:17
ogra_well, thats normal15:17
mr-ttafter >12 hours still at 100% is normal?15:18
ogra_it doesnt use any power ... or so little that you will only see 1% after several hours15:18
ogra_if y<ou didnt get any notifications that woke up the device that can well be, yes15:18
mr-ttno notifications, only wlan on15:19
ogra_yeah, wlan is off if the screen goes off15:19
zbenjaminsturmflut2: did you tinker with the device? or is it a clean flashed image?15:19
ogra_it only gets woken up once in a while to check for notifications15:19
ogra_and then goes back to deep sleep15:19
ogra_mr-tt, if you want it to drain, turn off wifi and it will drain (there is a bug with the notification check if wifi is off)15:20
mr-ttinteresting. i just remember it being completely off, not being able to turn it on. when i plugged in it showed 45%. that was weird indeed15:20
sturmflut2zbenjamin: I just did a clean flash of rc-proposed on the arale, never made the image writeable or anything.15:21
mr-ttthen it decreased(while charging) and when i booted it it showed 3%15:21
mr-tt(in ubuntu)15:21
mr-ttcustomer support told me to fully uncharge and recharge it while off, i'm trying that atm15:22
ogra_yeah, there seems ot be an issue with calibrating the battery ... not the first time i heard that15:23
mr-ttogra_: after how much time will i see a decrease in battery percentage while idling?15:23
mr-ttogra_: ah ok, so the uncharge/recharge should fix that?15:23
ogra_well, usually after several hours ... my battery usually goes down 1% or so over night15:23
ogra_according to bq it should fix the different values you see, yes15:24
mr-ttogra_: that's great, thanks. but in case there really is a problem because of different nvram/foo would it be possible to compare nvram of my device to a "native" e4.5?15:25
ogra_no idea, sorry15:26
mr-ttogra_: is there someone from bq here in irc? or should i contact customer support?15:26
jrbto/15:32

=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
zbenjaminnik90: so you taking a break i've heared?16:32
davmor2mr-tt: if you want to speed it up play youtube videos16:34
mr-ttdavmor2: when using the device the battery percentage is correct. just was wrong when i didn't use it a long time. but i hope it's only a calibration issue which gets fixed by uncharging/recharging16:38
mr-ttand i guess for uncharging a torch app should be quickest way :)16:38
davmor2mr-tt: yes to speed up the discharge play youtube videos16:38
mr-ttdavmor2: you can set youtube to autorepeat/auto-play next video right?16:39
davmor2mr-tt: yeah just play a youtube playlist16:40
sturmflut2ogra_: Do you know where this "battery calibration" takes place exactly? The more code and the more datasheets I read, the more I get the impression that there are just two fixed voltage thresholds for "full" and "empty" and that's it.16:42
davmor2mr-tt: it'll drain it until you get down to the 10% warning,  Because you are using wifi and the screen and loud speaker and so on it drains at a fairly regular pace doing that :)16:42
davmor2mr-tt: you'll obviously need to keep the screen awake so you can just do powerd-cli display on in terminal-app to keep it on16:43
davmor2mr-tt or set sleep to never16:44
nik90zbenjamin: yeah for a while .. :/16:44
ogra_sturmflut2, i have no clue, i was actually surprised to hear about it when i heard it the first time16:45
ogra_sturmflut2, might be some internal firmware in the battery/charger though16:46
sturmflut2ogra_: I just read through the data sheets of the battery charging circuits the m75 kernel supports, not a single one of them actually has an "internal firmware" and not a single datasheet talks about calibration.16:50
ogra_sturmflut2, dont mix up bq and meizu :)16:50
zbenjaminnik90: ok, take care man, in case we don't speak until you drop out16:50
ogra_sturmflut2, meizu seems to have some quick-charge logic in their charger circuit16:51
ogra_and "smart battery management" according to their ads16:51
ogra_(whatever that is)16:51
davmor2ogra_: that is like the worst advert ever dude ;)16:52
ogra_heh16:53
ogra_dont shoot the messenger16:53
sturmflut2ogra_: In the end the important thing is what Little Kernel does, because that one sets up the whole logic and shows the charge animation when the device is charging while "off". The code is common for all platforms, Meizu and bq. It just programs the charge parameters into the battery controller, which does all the charging according to curves defined by current and voltage thresholds. But it doesn't tell you the battery16:55
sturmflut2level. It just tells you "dangerously low", "okay" and "full".16:55
sturmflut2ogra_: The actual battery level in percent is calculated by asking the PMIC, a different chip, about the current battery voltage, and then converting it in software.16:56
sturmflut2There shouldn't be any voodoo here, the battery just goes from "full" threshold voltage to "low" threshold voltage, and when it ages, it does this faster than in the beginning.16:57
ogra_sturmflut2, hmm, sounds like it could interfere with upower trying to do the same on SW16:57
sturmflut2ogra_: Yeah, I believe that some piece of software later in the chain tries to be smart16:57
ogra_john-mcaleely, ^^^^ sounds like something to inspect16:59
* sturmflut2 goes home17:00
mr-ttogra_: in this thread i read nothing about hw differences on utouch/android e4.5 except the buttons and nothing about firmware differences: https://twitter.com/bqreaders/status/56584848566546022417:13
ogra_mr-tt, touchscreen firmware is different ... and the radio depends on what android version you installed ...17:14
ogra_there might be more17:14
john-mcaleelyradio depends on what android version?17:15
ogra_with the nexus4 we had the prob that peoplle who installed lollipop could completely trash their radio17:15
ogra_ansd had to manually flash the radio partition17:15
john-mcaleelywhy would that impact a completely different chipset?17:15
ogra_not sure if thats possible on the bq17:16
ogra_john-mcaleely, no, same chipset but different firmware blob17:16
john-mcaleelythe issue on mako was that the firmware blob changed the api we talked to, afaik17:17
ogra_right17:17
mr-ttogra_: but the fw is flashed by mtk flash tool, otherwise there would be issues on utouch?17:17
john-mcaleelywhereas, an ubuntu image comes with a tested firmware blob. so no proble,17:17
john-mcaleelym17:17
ogra_well, i'm not sure what all gets replaced when flashing a krillin with the mtk tool17:17
john-mcaleelyeverything.17:17
ogra_or what might be accidentially be left behind17:17
john-mcaleelywell, exccept the vram, which contains your imei17:18
john-mcaleelyand a few other settings17:18
ogra_and the experience with studio_ simply tought me to be at least very very careful with supporting people that bought the android version to then flash ubuntu back and forth17:18
john-mcaleelythe various firmware blobs are hosted by the linux (android, ubuntu) os, and flashed as needed. as far as I can tell17:18
ogra_(nowadays popey rather supports studio and i keep my blood pressure low)17:19
john-mcaleelywell, so long as they use mtk tool, and don't expect user data to survive, they will be fine17:19
popeyhah17:19
john-mcaleelyhigher expectations are unwise17:19
mr-ttjohn-mcaleely: what "other settings"?17:19
ogra_john-mcaleely, well, as long as we are sure everything from android gets actualy replaced17:19
john-mcaleelymt-tt, never fully documented - known to include serial number, imei, mac addresses17:20
john-mcaleelyogra_, BQ host both images (android, ubuntu), and provide instructions to move between them17:20
john-mcaleelyjust expect 100% user data loss17:20
john-mcaleely(because repartitioning occurs)17:20
mr-ttyep, bq supports this17:20
ogra_john-mcaleely, i know what bq does ... i just dont trust the principle :) ... and i'm a burned child ... see studio_17:21
