AttonHello. I need to change an alarm but the app won't show me the bottom edge drawer anymore. I've found the application database under ~/.local, but can't find it there. Where can I find and edit alarms with the terminal? Thanks08:57

jgdxmyrmidon, this was discussed in a lengthy thread on the mailing list not long ago. Maybe it's worth taking a look at that.10:29

Maguianybody here know how I can order the meizu ubuntu phone?  I've looked through the store links from meizu's website, and I'm having trouble finding someone who offers this phone.  also, I'm in the U.S., and I need to find a seller who will ship overseas.16:08
pmcgowanMagui, meizu no longer sells it, would need to find it second hand16:09
Maguipmcgowan:   I see.  that explains a lot.16:12
noFreePhoneCan somebody clarify this on the install page. If I understand correctly, `adb backup -apk -shared -all` only backs up _some_ of your data.16:12
noFreePhoneI believe it will not, for example, back up google authenticator settings.16:12
noFreePhoneThere should be some sort of warning around that.16:13
noFreePhoneOr correct me if I am wrong.16:13
jgdxcan't really ask upstream adb to add warnings for ubuntu users16:27
noFreePhonejgdx: I meant just adding something to that page prior to that step.16:42
noFreePhone"The following command will back up some of the data on your phone. Some apps do not implement the backup protocol, and their data will not be backed up."16:44
noFreePhonejgdx: I intend to file an upstream bug on AOSP as well.16:45
davmor2noFreePhone: adb is android based, they will not care about modifying for Ubuntu touch it isn't android16:48
jgdxI think he's referring to the step prior to installing ubuntu16:48
davmor2noFreePhone: adb is the thing that would trigger the warning16:48
jgdxnoFreePhone, maybe suggest it here instead: https://bugs.launchpad.net/developer-ubuntu-com/+filebug16:49
davmor2jgdx: I think we need our own backup tool to be honest16:49
jgdxdavmor2, we do16:49
davmor2and not reley on adb tools at all16:49
noFreePhoneBut with ubuntu touch I could create a full filesystem image, right?16:51
noFreePhoneSo that I would have point-in-time restore capability?16:51
jgdxnoFreePhone, perhaps not a warning, but a link to the adb docs: E.g. "For information on what is backed up by adb, please refer to <url>"16:51
noFreePhonejgdx: I don't see such docs. Do you know where they would be?16:54
noFreePhoneI expected them here: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html16:55
noFreePhoneBut that page doesn't seem to have really any useful info on it.16:55
kowak30mb free ram is normal on ubuntu touch port?17:00
jgdxnoFreePhone, hm, doesn't seem to exist, no. Sad17:00
noFreePhonejgdx: This is why I am looking to find something reasonable for a sophisticated user.17:02
* noFreePhone doesn't really want to go back to his neo197317:02
jgdxkowak, /proc/meminfo and http://linux-mm.org/Low_On_Memory for details17:03
jgdxkowak, seems my mako has 30MB free ram as well17:04
kowakjgdx, you mako have touch delay/lag on 15.04 and up?17:06

dobeynoFreePhone: even if you were able to back up all the data on your android device, it won't be useful after installing ubuntu, as ubuntu isn't a fork of android and you can't run those apps. you'll need to use a different app for 2fa and re-add all your accounts to the new app, so hopefully you already have some method for that other than the google app on your phone, so that you can still access them after installing ubuntu18:36
noFreePhonedobey: Yes, I always check my backups somehow before actually wiping a device, so I do not have an issue.18:38
noFreePhoneBut clearly it would be possible for someone who had a robust two factor setup without recovery codes to be screwed.18:39
noFreePhoneBut the whole idea of a backup is to be able to get back to a known good state (reflash android and restore from backup). And the adb backup doesn't provide that for several important use cases.18:41
noFreePhonedobey: in that vein, is there a google authenticator compatible app for ubuntu touch?18:42
dobeynoFreePhone: there is an app like google authenticator which supports using the qr codes and oath protocol, yes. i don't think you can take the data file from the google android app and stick it on the disk somewhere in ubuntu for this app to use it though18:44
noFreePhonedobey: right, no, I wouldn't presume so.18:44
dobeyafaik, the data is stored differently on disk, but mzanetti_ would know for sure, since he wrote it18:44
noFreePhoneJust as long as I can still have two factor enabled (even if it must be set up again). Have to have it for work.18:45
