undertaskerMorning. Can I change the behavior of the BQ Aquaris when both volume keys are pressed? Currently it's making a screenshot, but I don't need screenshots. I'd like to toggle the camera light instead.06:19
nhainesNope.06:20
nhainesThat'd be a bad thing to make configureable, but I certainly wouldn't mind some other cool combination that turned on the camera light.06:20
undertaskerCan I somehow access the LED?06:40
Stanley00undertasker: you mean notification led?06:42
undertaskerYes06:46
Stanley00undertasker: code in your app or you just want to see the led lightup? I know that there is some device files in /dev/ for those leds06:48
undertaskerAs Dekko can't notify me of received emails in the background, I thought I could maybe run a script via cron, that checks for emails and turns on the LED.06:48
Stanley00undertasker: look like a perfer job for /dev/ files, your can run find /dev/ -iname '*led*' or find /dev/ -iname '*light*' to find those files then06:50
Stanley00undertasker: but well, you can try contact dekko author's for the support is prefer :306:51
undertaskerDekko is a somewhat strange app. It doesn't notify me when there are new emails, but when new mail arrive while it is in the background, and I then put it to focus and open it's account overview, it already shows the number of received emails behind the account name.06:56
undertaskerSo It seems that it indeed polls the mail server in the background, it just doesn't have a notification mechanism (yet?).06:57
DanChapmanundertasker Dekko only fetches mail in the foreground, so as soon as it is focused it runs as quick as possible to determine everything that's changed06:57
DanChapmanundertasker: take a look at https://bitbucket.org/snippets/dekkoproject/dEejr/experimental-notifications06:57
=== kissiel-zZz is now known as kissiel
DanChapmanit's isn't a complete solution but it works ok for now. Were currently working out the best solution for getting notifications working properly06:58
undertaskerGreat! Exactly what I need!06:59
DanChapmanundertasker: If you find after a while dekko keeps crashing in the background just delete ~/.cache/dekko.dekkoproject/notifications/* and it should resolve it07:00
undertaskerTo be honest, I was thinking of returning the phone, because I have to monitor several email account constantly. That's one of the main reasons why I carry around a smartphone.07:03
undertaskerI only tried Ubuntu because of security concerns.07:04
undertaskerHm. I can't find tweakgeek in uApp Explorer.07:05
Stanley00undertasker: it's open.uappexplorer, not uapp explorer :307:06
undertaskerHow could I misplace this?07:09
Stanley00undertasker: here is the link https://open.uappexplorer.com/app/tweakgeek.mzanetti :P07:09
RAOFI believe that https://code.launchpad.net/~nikwen/account-polld/imap-mails is the feature you're looking for; IMAP support for notifications.07:10
undertaskerAnd how do I install the openstore app?07:14
undertaskerStanley00: How do I install the openstore app?07:24
Stanley00undertasker: I didn't, so I can't tell you that :P07:24
DanChapmanundertasker: use the browser app and go to https://open.uappexplorer.com/docs#install download it from there and follow the other steps07:25
undertaskerCan't download it on the phone, the browser always wants to open it. I'll try to download it on the PC and push it via adb.07:32
Stanley00undertasker: yeah, the browser can download the file in near future... maybe in OTA707:33
Stanley00but now, I have to use wget for download files07:34
undertaskerIndeed, we have wget. Could've thought of that.07:38
undertaskerBut adb push also worked.07:38
undertaskerAbout this USB mode setting in TweakGeek: Does this enable USB tethering?07:44
undertaskerIf so, is there also reverse tethering?07:44

undertaskerNot for me, currently they don't work at all (at least on 3g).08:37
undertaskerBut maybe I'm doing something wrong, got the phone just yesterday.08:39
undertaskerBTW: is it normal that the phone reboots when I'm trying to mount a smb share?08:40
DanChapmanmcphail: yes it should do. It watches the connectivity API so will kick off a new connection when network becomes available.I haven't extensivley tested that yet though. IIRC it's also set in limited bandwidth mode so it should be really light on network usage08:46
=== drFaustroll is now known as Guest43282
mcphailDanChapman: cheers. Any way to get it to flash the LED? I only get a notification on the icon in the dock, rather than anything in the notification area08:46
DanChapmanmcphail: the led should flash when you get a notification. So are you not receiving them?08:48
mcphailDanChapman: yes, they are coming thoriugh. When I switch on my screen I can see the number of new mails over the icon. But nothing in the notification area and no LED08:50
ogra_undertasker, you could surely hack it08:51
ogra_by default android-gadget-service only offers forward tethering08:52
ogra_(oops, didnt notice my window was scrolled back)08:52
DanChapmanmcphail: ahh the emblem count update works seperately to the notifications. You should also be getting notifications in the message tray though. :-( Did you restart Dekko after enabling notifications?08:54
mcphailDanChapman: yes, and tried rebooting the phone as well08:58
mcphailAnd dekko is ticked on the "Notifications" settings page09:01
jnxdHello. I very recently got my bq Aquaris E5, and I'm trying to connect via wifi09:06
jgdxLaney, hi, you got a moment? It's re: 149226009:07
jgdxbug 149226009:07
ubot5bug 1492260 in ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) "typing in search field of date/time settings blocks UI" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/149226009:07
jnxdthe problem however is, that I am on my Univ network, where I have to enter my username and password, whose options do not show up at all here09:07
Laneyjgdx: yeah but I don't know much about why it might happen09:08
jgdxLaney, I have a slight suspicion that the worker thread is running in the gui thread.09:08
Stanley00jnxd: you can try as answer here http://askubuntu.com/questions/598980/ubuntu-touch-wireless-peap-workaround09:09
jgdxLaney, and qt says at this point that you should never subclass qthread. So i'm wondering if something has changed in qt5 (or qt4.8).09:10
JamesTaitGood morning all; happy Friday, and happy No News is Good News Day! 😃09:12
Laneyjgdx: It was the advice to subclass and implement run()09:12
jgdxLaney, it was, but it's not anymore.09:13
Laneywell, is it this part that's causing the problem?09:14
Laneythat QThread is for building the object initially09:14
Laneythen we use QtConcurrent to filter it when you search09:14
Laneydid you check where it happens?09:14
Laneythat'll help to identify the place to look09:14
guest42315uh, taking screenshots locks the UI for 5 seconds https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/149448009:15
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1494480 in unity8 (Ubuntu) "taking screenshots locks the UI for 4-5seconds on Meizu MX4" [Undecided,New]09:15
jgdxLaney, it's just a theory. But if I'm throttling the filter calls, we still have lag.09:15
jgdxLaney, also, if I print stuff from the worker thread, it's printed twice. I.e. it builds the stuff twice.09:15
Laneywhen does that happen?09:17
Laneywhen you first enter the panel or when you first search?09:17
jgdxthe first search starts the worker, then at some point (maybe the second search), the worker starts once more.09:18
Laneyyou could try to make that map building happen when you enter the panel instead09:18
Laneymight make loading it slower but then you can eliminate or not this part09:19
jgdxright, that's fine, but should it run twice?09:19
Laneyno probably not09:20
LaneyI'm suggesting that you find out if this is the real problem if that is the bug you want to fix09:20
Laneyif it runs twice but has 0 impact then maybe a lower priority09:20
undertaskerMy GPS stopped working again, but I'm not in the mood to do another factory reset. Any other ideas?09:23
jgdxLaney, okay.09:24
Laneyjgdx: Seems you're supposed to use moveToThread now, that's probably worth doing too09:25
jgdxLaney, right. Does this mean that signals from the worker is handled in the gui thread?09:25
jnxdStanley00: Thanks for the tip. Though now I'm wondering if doing anything such will void the warranty. I got it in my hands literally hours ago.09:26
Stanley00jnxd: Sadly I'm sure about that.09:27
undertaskermcphail: Same here. Tweaked Dekko to not suspend, enabled notifications, rebooted. I can see the number of new mails in the icon after a while, but no notifications.09:27
Stanley00jnxd: I don't have my phone here now. Can you check the wifi setting to see if there's any enterprise authentication method besides wpa2?09:29
Laneyjgdx: maybe, but it's not meant to do much work there09:29
Laneyjgdx: it might not be wise to emit resultReady for every single location09:29
Laneymaybe batch these09:30
jgdxLaney, yes, this event is seen by the model object quite often.09:30
jnxdStanley00: It's not even showing WPA209:32
jnxdjust an IP09:32
jnxdI'm using my own laptop as a hotspot, and it's using WPA09:34
Stanley00jnxd: hmm... look like the only method you can try is the link above. You may ask your provider if you care about warranty09:41
jnxdStanley00: that'd be bq, most like. I'll look around09:43

Laneyapplications (including scopes) just don't start09:53
popeyprobably09:53
popeyits never tested09:53
Laneywah09:54
mcphailHmm - odd. Just got a proper email notification through09:55
ogra_Laney, indeed it is ... gcc transition ...09:55
ogra_Laney, the C++ libs wont be able to run the apps ... needs a new framework definition and rebuilds for all apps against that new framework09:56
Laneyeven the in archive things?09:56
ogra_not sure about them ...09:56
Laneythe "Scopes" thing doesn't start09:56
ogra_depends on their deps i guess09:56
Laneyand neither does ubuntu-system-settings09:56
Laneyhow can I get a shell on this thing?09:57
ogra_hmm, yyou have no terminal app either i guess ?09:58
ogra_silly question ... indeed if you have no scopes you couldnt run it09:59
DanChapmanmcphail: hmm that's odd then. Does the log show anything useful? Also check the IMAP logs under ~/.cache/dekko.dekkoproject/logs. Oh... are you using gmail and using online accounts for it? The notifications won't work for online accounts at the moment if that's the case10:01
jgdxLaney, it ran twice because, the plugin was instantiated twice (first in pagecomponent.qml, and then choosetimezone.qml). FYI :)10:01
mcphailDanChapman: I do have a gmail account set up, but I've been testing on my home server IMAP account10:02
Laneyogra_: I can get to recovery...10:03
Laneyjgdx: oh right yeah10:03
ogra_Laney, well, you would need to hack one of the persistent android properties to force adb on ... and then hack the adbd upstart job to start regardless of the lock scren state10:04
ogra_or touch /userdata/.adb_onlock10:04
Laneyhow do I touch it?10:05
ogra_from recovery10:06
ogra_(it might be mounted as /data not /userdata there though, you have to check ... )10:06
LaneyI have /data/media10:07
mcphailDanChapman: now I'm getting notification, LED and vibration! I think my phone is getting used to the idea...10:07
Laneyare these meant to be empty?10:07
Laneyalso /datadata ...10:07
ogra_no, but perhaps not mounted by default ...10:07
ogra_there should be an fstab entry for /data or /userdata10:07
ogra_moun tit10:07
Laneyoh yes I have this10:08
ogra_Laney, /userdata/android-data/property/persist.sys.usb.config needs to contain: mtp,adb10:10
ogra_that will force adb on10:10
ogra_(create the file if it doesnt already exist)10:10
ogra_with that and the adb_onlock file in place you should then be able to adb shell into it10:11
Laneyok I did the first bit10:11
Laneynot sure which is the actual /userdata directory in the end10:11
Laney/data/user-data # ls10:11
Laneyphablet10:11
ogra_well, there are subdirs ... like user-data android-data atc10:12
Laneyseems to contain the home directory?10:12
ogra_if the mount has that, thats the device bcoming /userdata10:12
ogra_right10:12
ogra_it contains all writable data10:12
Laneyis /userdata/phablet mounted at /home/phablet in the end?10:12
ogra_well, /userdata/user-data/phablet iirc10:13
ogra_its a bind mount in the end ... on top of /home/phablet10:13
Laneyok, well, I just touched it in /data and /data/user-data to be more sure10:16

ogra_hard to say whats wrong there without logs10:19
ogra_(you could perhaps capture syslog from /userdata/system-data/ via recovery though)10:19
Laneyhow do I get to the system itself?10:20
Laneyis that one of the .img files?10:20
m0n5t3r_I think you can boot from fastboot mode with an adb-enabled recovery10:20
Laneyyeah I'm in that10:21
Laneythat's how I have any shell to it at all10:21
m0n5t3r_then you should be able to mount the userdata partition and see the syslog10:22
m0n5t3r_I had an issue a while ago with the phone not booting at all after a seemingly successful bootstrap10:24
m0n5t3r_it had a log in /tmp/recovery.log, where it was complaining it can't mount the sd card; popper an SD card in, flashed again and it worked10:26
m0n5t3r_no idea why, though10:26
Laneyhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/12334796/ syslog10:27
ogra_Laney, /var/log/upstart/android-tools-adbd.log ?10:29
Laneydoesn't exist10:29
ogra_hmm, then upstart doesnt even attempt to run it ...10:29
ogra_which means  lxc-android-config doesnt emit the android event (which it should do when the container is up)10:30
ogra_you could bluntly hack the android-tools-adbd.conf upstart job to something like: "start on startup" or so10:30

jnxdStanley00: yes that was me, the wifi guy12:25
Stanley00jnxd: I just see my E5, you can connect to hidden wifi network and choose wpa2-enterprise there.12:26
Stanley00jnxd: wpa2-enterprise is kind of complicated, so you may need to ask the IT in your universe for the right config12:27
undertaskerThat's the reason why we have a separate "bring your own device" wifi network here12:29

undertaskerBTW, when I tested the GPS on my way home yesterday, I noticed that the position jumped to a few kilometers away here and there, for a short time. I thought it was the GPS itself, but it may as well have been a communication problem12:33

tvossundertasker, looking12:57
undertaskertvoss: Thanks12:57
tvossundertasker, okay, so all the fixes reported by the chipset are marked as invalid (see GPGGA lines)13:01
tvossundertasker, it seems like the chipset is unable to determine correct time, I will investigate the issue13:01
tvossundertasker, http://aprs.gids.nl/nmea/#gga13:02
tvossundertasker, thanks for the data :)13:03
undertaskertvoss: Thanks for your help.13:03
undertaskerAm I the only one having this problem? Because it's a brand new bq4.5, and i didn't do anything special.13:03

tvossundertasker, we fixed a bunch of issues around gps, but I personally haven't seen this rtc issue before13:06
undertaskermay pop up more frequently, now that the bq phones arrived in stores all over the world.13:07
jnxd_Stanley00: I hope you haven't replied in the time I got disconnected :/13:10
Stanley00jnxd_: did you get this? "you can connect to hidden wifi network and choose wpa2-enterprise there."13:12
jnxd_Stanley00: yes. To that I asked if you were able to get options for all username, password, and proxy.13:13
Stanley00jnxd_: I didn't get your question then. You can set username, password, but I'm not sure about proxy, let me check for that13:14
jnxd_Stanley00: I'll try asking the IT guy but I'm not sure how interested and experienced he'd be with ubuntu phones.13:14
jnxd_Stanley00: Sorry my institute's network is kinda peculiar in all these terms13:15
Stanley00jnxd_: with wpa2-enterprise, you need to know at least authentication method, I think the IT guys can help you with that.13:16

jnxd_Stanley00: I guess I'm gonna soon say bye bye to my warranty :/13:23
Stanley00jnxd_: haha... I think I lot that 2 days after I got mine. It's totally worth it for rc image :313:25
jnxd_rc image?13:26
jnxd_say, do you get OTA's?13:26
jnxd_I will probably survive the warranty voidance, but It's gonna be a royal pain if I lose that.13:27
undertaskerConfiguring Linux to use a proxy is always a pain in the back. You'll always find programs that ignore the environment variables. I gave up and use sshuttle instead.13:27
undertaskerStanley00: Is there an overview of differences/new functions between stable and rc?13:28
Stanley00undertasker: well, I'm currently on rc-proposed. I usually get update daily :313:30
ogra_undertasker, stable and rc are essentially the same13:30
undertaskerSo I should try rc-proposed. maybe the gps problem is fixed then.13:31
ogra_rc is just the final QA stage before an image goes into stable ... it will only get updated shortly before a stable promotion13:31
Stanley00jnxd_: well, I think you can just reflash the rom from BQ and no one will know about what you did :P13:31
ogra_rc-propoased is the automated daily build ... without any QA13:31
Stanley00undertasker: yeah, I would not recommend rc-proposed for daily use.13:32
undertaskerSo rc it is.13:33
jibelogra_, we QA rc-proposed. there are automated sanity tests, weekly manual review, and bi-weekly exploratory testing13:34
* ogra_ uses it daily :) 13:36
ogra_bu you need to be aware that bugs or regressions can slip through13:36
ogra_code that lands gets a lot of QA before landing, usually it is relatively safe to use13:36
ogra_it is jjust missing the final QA of the code in context with the built image13:36
Stanley00jibel: I just knew about the automated test. What is the result of weekly and biweekly test then?13:36
ogra_jibel, you Qa rc-proposed the same time as users use it ;)13:37
ogra_so if i user rc-proposed i dont have any QA13:37
jibelogra_, true :)13:37
ogra_:)13:37
ogra_undertasker, as i said, rc is exactly the same as stable ... until a few days before a new stable goes out13:38
ogra_it is the staging space for the final stable image13:38
ogra_you either want stable ot rc-proposed ... using rc makes not much sense unless you want to help with final testing of stable images13:38
jibelStanley00, as ogra_ said we don't block rc-proposed builds on failed results but identify issues to fix before the OTA. So if you use rc-proposed you might hit regressions  that would have been blocked in the stable image.13:40
ogra_but you also see the fixes coming in :)13:40
jibelyeah otherwise no release ;)13:40
undertaskerI'll try rc-proposed. The phone is new, so I won't lose important data if I have to reflash and reset it.13:41
undertaskerI'll reset it anyway, and look if the gps problem comes back.13:42
Stanley00jibel: oh, I see13:42
Stanley00anyway, I just need to install some apps, and copy some MB of books in case of a reflash :313:43
ogra_Sd cards FTW :)13:44
stakewinner00One question about the bq phone. Why BQ e4.5 have 2 sim cards and only 1 SD card? I think it's better to have 2 SD card and 1 sim card...13:45
Stanley00stakewinner00: what?!13:46
stakewinner00Stanley00, my bq have two slots for sim cards, and one slot for a SD card.13:48
Stanley00ogra_: ah, I've never try an sdcard. Can I save all installed apps/config and data on it? Or in other words, can sdcard mount as /home/phablet?13:48
undertaskeryou could use one big SD card and partition it in half.13:48
ogra_Stanley00, currently only data13:48
ogra_and no, it gets mounted under /media/phablet/ same as on desktop13:49
jgdxbfiller, mpt, kenvandine: /usr/share/zoneinfo fyi13:49
undertaskerBTW: I tried to mount a smb share, and this crashed my phone. Is cifs support even official?13:50
Stanley00ogra_: ah, thanks. I'll keep my only sdcard for my primary phone then :313:50
ogra_undertasker, not yet, no13:51
ogra_(i dont think we even build the module)13:51
ogra_undertasker, there is work in the filemanager app going on to use smb mounts in that app ... not sure where that stands, i think popey was involved13:51
mptjgdx, binary files? wot13:51
undertaskerogra_: well, mount did take -cifs as an argument without complaining, but then the phone rebooted13:53
ogra_well, i dont think the kernel has cifs13:53
undertaskerIf only I had Kodi, it comes with inbuilt cifs support13:54
undertaskerWhere can I request a kernel with cifs support?13:56
ogra_sounds like a good project to learn click packing ;)13:57
undertaskerI don't need a file manager, i just want to mount a network share.13:57
ogra_(well, probably not ... kodi isnt actually for starters i guess :) )13:57
ogra_yeah, i doubt we'll support it in kernel13:57
ogra_you would have to roll a module yourself13:58
undertaskerWell, someone in the mood to build the modules?13:58
undertaskerOk ok, I'll install a build environment myself.13:59
undertaskerWhat do i need? md4.ko, cifs.ko, nls_utf8.ko ?14:00
ogra_no idea14:00
=== MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow
ogra_i'd use menuconfig on the kernel source and diff the two configs (before and after enabling cifs)14:01
