mptHas anyone else noticed that the app screenshots, which the phone takes for a background-killed app, are blurry?09:59
jgdxmpt, yes10:03
davmor2mpt: they are meant to be so you know the app isn't currently active aiui10:08
mptdavmor2, if that was the case I’d expect it to have a blur or a tint. But it looks like it’s just been cropped then resized, or something like that.10:08
davmor2mpt: when they were clear people were trying to interact with the app and nothing was happening10:09
davmor2mpt: no idea how the blur is applied just that it is10:09
mpthmm10:09
mptWhere should I report a bug then? :-) unity8?10:10
davmor2mpt: yeah I think it is unity8 that handles it10:10
davmor2mpt: it has been like that for quite a while though, I'm surprised you are only just noticing :)10:11
popeympt: bug exists, I filed it ages ago10:12
popeympt: bug 137826710:12
ubot5`bug 1378267 in unity8 (Ubuntu) "Suspended app screenshots are blurry" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/137826710:12
popeyhaha, almost exactly 1 year ago10:13
davmor2mpt: ^ see said it had been like it for ages10:13
mptthanks popey10:14
popeynp10:14
davmor2mpt: also I think it was a design choice to blur it when it not actually active so it might be that design needs to look at it again maybe and give new feed back I like the idea of a tint though :) not sure how practical that is in reality though10:18
mptIt’s in the Uncanny Valley between being (a) obviously not the actual app, and (b) apparently the actual app10:18
davmor2mpt: indeed10:19

mcphailha!12:22
popeythat's the point when everyone really noticed it, when 20 people were sat around wondering why their phones were performing so badly12:22
mcphailMy phone is almost unusable at work, as well, unless I disable wifi12:22

pmcgowanmcphail, we are having a hard time nailing that one, there is a patch but we are not convinced its resolved12:32
mcphailpmcgowan: If there is anything I can do to help, let me know12:35
pmcgowanmcphail, there could be once awe is online we can ask12:36

=== binar_ is now known as binar
binarI have ubuntu touch installed on a nexus 4 with a touchscreen, which isn't working in the bottom area (only displays, no touch events possible). As display rotation does not work on the welcome screen, I can only choose the language, but not confirm the selection. Where is the selection stored? Can I somehow manually set the langugage in recovery mode? Or is it possible to enable adb to work in the nor15:17
binarmal boot mode?15:17
m0n5t3r_I'm pretty sure now that my aquaris really hates having its gpu hot, that's why it is rebooting: using the hotspot or having dbus eat 100% CPU (no idea why) -> no issue; any extended use of the screen / GPU (scrolling in the twitter app or the browser, here maps or osmscout, pathwind) results in a string of reboots until presumably the thing manages to cool down15:25

KiviI'm having trouble running my qml app on my phone. In both the sdk and from qmlscene, it gives me this error:  i.imgur.com/ycwvKgy.png19:26
KiviI'm not sure where to find the coredump.19:26
davmor2Kivi: try /var/crash19:35
Kivithanks19:36
dobeyKivi: are you just trying to run "qmlscene" in the terminal app on the phone to run your app?19:38
Kividobey, someone told me to try that. The sdk was spitting out the same error19:44
dobeyyou can't just run "qmlscene foo.qml" directly on the phone.19:46
Kividobey, I think he wanted to see what the coredump was. In any case; I cant run it from the sdk, or my phone.19:47

Kivihmmmm... Sdk-Launcher> Received a failed event20:00
KiviI think it must be the Event, because it does not crash immediately with that other warning...20:00
Kivipopey or dobey do you think I may be able to solve this issue by flashing my phone to a different channel?20:18
Kivipopey, I'm using the one you gave me.20:18
dobeyKivi: what channel are you using?20:22
Kividobey, its a nexus 4 running... damn my logs are deleted. an aquaris channel.20:23
KiviWhat's the command to check again?20:23
dobeywhy aren't you using ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu ?20:24
Kiviubuntu-device-flash touch --channel=ubuntu-touch/rc/bq-aquaris.en20:25

Kivithere it is20:25

Kivibecause the guide here told me to20:25
Kivihttps://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/image-channels/20:26
Kivithat was an old image, and I asked popey what I should use, and he said he was using that.. Anyway, I'll go ahead and flash I guess.20:26
Kividobey, so I should use ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu ?20:26
dobeyi think so yes20:27

lawiloghi! i try to install ubuntu touch on a nexus 7 in 2012 version, i.e. device grouper. looks like there is no grouper image anywhere on https://system-image.ubuntu.com/ , but there seem to be some on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/ - can i use them (e.g. with ubuntu-device-flash --custom-tarball ...) if so, how? which images to use? if not, is there any other option to get ubuntu touch on that de21:43
mcphaillawilog: as I understand it, support for the 2012 nexus 7 was dropped completely21:49
lawilogis it possible to build the images for 2012 nexus 7 myself? as Ubuntu Touch 15.10 still has grouper images avaliable and drivers etc. are avaliable, it looks like no real development need to be done, only some technical work (?)21:53
