victor_bqHi all10:28
victor_bqsomeone to kindly lend me a hand?¿10:29
cchrisssure :)10:31
victor_bqgreat! thanks10:31
victor_bqis something regarding the updates through the UI10:31
victor_bqI was testing different update scenarios and I just noticed that krillin and vegeta were not able to detect updates through 3g10:32
victor_bqis that the expected behaviour?10:32
victor_bq(this matter comes from a customer that reported that exactly)10:33
cchrissI also noticed that on my nexus410:33
victor_bqI10:33
victor_bqdid the same in OTA 8.5 and rc21510:33
victor_bqgetting the same result, no updates and then just after turnning the Wi-Fi on they arrived =)10:34
victor_bqworth a bug right?10:34
cchrissMaybe you have to adjust the setting that says "atomatically download with ... wifi/never/always"10:34
victor_bqgreat I'm going to try it right now10:35
victor_bq:)10:35
cchrissmaybe setting this to "always" will help? i dont know  ;) But it is a bug anyway... because downloading and showing the fact that ther is an update are two different things in my opinion10:36
cchrissBut to discuss this bug you might have to wait until next year ;) all the developers in this channel seem to be on vacation10:37
victor_bqyeah, I know :( but I'm still here :P bugs are always good!10:38
victor_bq@cchriss it works just like you said10:46
victor_bq=)10:46
victor_bqthanks!10:46
Spacedog_ieyoyoyoyo11:10
Spacedog_iehi guys11:10
Spacedog_iehi guys, what files do I need to backup/restore for contacts info?11:11
Spacedog_ieI backed up MX4 and want to restore contacts to BQ11:11
Spacedog_ieany info appreciated...11:12
cchrissSo you only have the backup files? I can tell you how to export the contacts on a running system, if that helps11:15
mcphailSpacedog_ie: haven't tried, but does this help: https://gurucubano.gitbooks.io/bq-aquaris-e-4-5-ubuntu-phone/content/en/chapter9.html11:15
Spacedog_ieI only have files11:16
cchrissmaybe reading this is worth a try: http://askubuntu.com/questions/293696/where-are-the-evolution-data-files-stored11:28
cchrissthe $HOME/.local/share/evolution folder is filled with some files on my phone... maybe you can just copy them to your new one?11:29
Spacedog_ieyeah, doing that now11:32
Spacedog_ie$HOME/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/contacts.db seems to be where it's stored11:33
Spacedog_ieif I open the backup of this file in a text editor I can see all my amigos in there11:34
Spacedog_ieyet replacing this file does nothing?11:34
Spacedog_ieis it cached somewhere else?11:34
Spacedog_ieHAHA restart FTW!11:37
Spacedog_ie\o/11:37
Spacedog_iethankyou guys11:37
cchrissgood to know, that this works :)11:38
Spacedog_iein the same folder there's a subdirectory called photos11:41
Spacedog_iepulling that in gets your contacts profiles pics11:41
Spacedog_ieyou gotta restart device for the contacts DB to update though, restarting the contacts app doesn't work. I'm guessing it's because evolution is managing this and running as a background process.11:42

faradhi, I cannot get any data out of the GPS of my Ubuntu Phone (Aquaris E4.5) with higher precision than some kilometers according to the sensor status applet20:52
hjbfarad: what's this "sensors status applet" thingy?20:53
faradI downloaded it from the ubuntu store20:53
hjbi'm searching for something like this20:53
ljphjb: its an app available in the store20:53
hjbok, thnaks20:53
ljpfarad: do you have mobile data enabled?20:53
faradyes20:54
faradotherwise I do not get any positions at all20:54
faradand I tried it outdoors of course^^20:55
ljpdoes it get better resolution if you leave it running for some time? like 30 minutes or so?20:55
faradstill no data20:55
faradalready checked this20:55
ljpI know there have been some issues with gps lately, but I am not quite sure of details20:56
faradOK, I have the version 15.0420:56
faradinterestingly the sensor status app always displays "Sattelite" as the positioning method20:57
faradso it actually thinks, that it is obtaining the data from a GPS chip20:59
faradcan I access the raw sensor output somehow20:59
faradI am not afraid of using the console20:59
hjb*g* i'd already installed that sensorsStatus app but forgot about it21:00
ljp:)21:00
hjbnot happy with it at all21:00
hjbi was used to have a gps sensor status app on android that displayed the status in realtime with a compass and available satelites etc. pp.21:01
hjbaccording to SensorStatus my MX4 doesn't have a compass at all :/21:02
hjbcan someone confirm that?21:03
ljpcompass in android might depend on gyroscope21:03
ljpI only have nexus 4 at this time...21:04
hjbno gyroscope on MX4, too :)21:05
faradno gyroscope on the aquaris as well ;)21:06
faradis "here" necessary for using the GPS?21:06
hjbi hope not21:06
ljpnot necessarily, I believe21:07
faradI would like to use OSMTouch21:07
ljpit might provide better resolution though21:07
hjbfarad: why are you "afraid" of using the console?21:07
ljpas HERE can use agps21:07
faradnot afraid I said…21:07
hjboh, sry21:08
faradnever mind ^^21:08
hjbljp: why can only HERE use agps?21:08
ljpI'm afraid of using the terminal.. because whenever I use it, I am having to fix something :)21:08
hjbthere's still a *lot* left to do to make ubuntu touch really usable, though. but i still like my MX4 ;)21:11
ljpwell, currently I am not too familiar with ubuntu gps system. agps doesn't need to depend on HERE, but depending on the system it might21:11
hjbhaving more time i'd really spend it to dive into development21:11
ljpthink I might have to dig into gps next week... as my first week working...21:13
ljpat least for my own sanity so I know whats going on21:14
dobeyhjb: HERE is the only current agps option on ubuntu phone. you're welcome to help build another though :)21:14
faradhey, there is a gps device node21:15
faradI think I will start testing there21:15
hjbdobey: thanks :) what makes me wonder is that i didn't know that. there's no "hint" on my phone telling me so ;)21:16
hjbbut after all that here app isn't working well with gps after all either ...21:17
hjbwas on a walk in the fields yesterday and tried to view my position on map ...  well rest of the story isn't worth telling21:18
dobeyhjb: it's not the HERE app that adds the agps support21:21
dobeythe retail images have additional back-end to enable it, iirc21:21
hjbhmm, ok21:21
dobeyso the only agps back-end is HERE, but it's not only the HERE app which can use agps21:22
hjbah, ok21:22
hjbseems i'll have to dig further into this ...21:23
hjbhaven't used gps/agps on this phone much at all, used to record my trips as gpx on android but haven't found a viable solution for ubuntu touch yet21:24
hjbbut no problem ;)21:24
faradis it possible then to use gps (without a) without HERE?21:24
dobeypossible yes21:25
faradis nearly everything possible but just not implemented so far?21:26
dobeybut it may take a very long time to get a fix21:26
faradOK, that question got philosophical…21:26
ljpwithout HERE, it just takes more time to get a good satellite fix21:34
ljpor, rather agps21:35
hjbhm, that's an interesting discussion. on my (very inexpensive) alcatel phone it took a *really* long time to get a plain gps fix, even an agps one21:39
hjbi've attache an (even older) bluetooth gps mouse to it21:40
hjbguess what? that thingy got a plain gps fix in seconds21:40
hjbno idea what they've done different21:40
hjbbut used that gps bluetooth mouse solely since that day21:40

taiebotDoes anyone know why the rc-proposed is still getting daily updates? I thought no canonical employees were working during the holiday break? Is is just a script?22:46
k1l_might be a daily build script22:47
dobeytaiebot: automation22:48
taiebotdobey:  I supppose it is non-touch related upgrades but i am getting some weird behaviour lately. I am finding my phone which looks like mir as crashed. Black screen and only hard reset wakes him up back22:51
dobeytaiebot: i don't know about that. but daily image builds are automated.22:52
taiebotdobey: ok my bad i thought only devel-proposed was automated and rc-proposed still had a manual check before upload22:54
taiebot\o/ unav upate22:54
taiebotupdate sorry22:54
dobeytaiebot: nope. things landing in rc-proposed require QA approval. but the build script just builds. some people were working today, and not all of the community is a canonical employee. so some stuff might have landed there. i don't know for sure22:56
dobeyQA does a manual testing of an image before it goes to rc/stable i think, but not to rc-proposed22:57
taiebotdobey: that makes sense i received an image on the 25th22:57
