yahnpopey, I just saw your post on g+ about running UT on the OnePlus One. Were you able to do that using the info from https://wiki.ubports.com/w/OnePlus_One ?08:45
yahnmariogrip, are you around?08:56
popeyyahn, yes and no, I also needed the boot.img and recovery.img out of one of the tarballs on that page, and manually installed those via fastboot09:03
popeyyahn, log from this irc channel a couple of days ago will have the conversation between me and mariogrip09:03
yahnpopey, thanks :)09:03
popeyyahn, http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2016/01/04/%23ubuntu-touch.html#t10:3409:04
yahnpopey, much appreciated09:04
yahnpopey, do you happen to have a link that works to that boot.img mariogrip asked you to use? The link in the irc log doesn't appear to work.09:20
yahnthe device_bacon.tar.xz file09:20
yahnpopey, nevermind, I've got it now.09:25

ondramterry why do you want to build art?12:33
ondramterry otherwise art is supported for all12:33
ondramterry once you run $ .  build/core/envsetup.sh12:34
ondramterry call $ lunch12:34
ondramterry and select for what you want to build12:34
ondramterry then you can compile what you need12:34
mariogripyahn: I'm here now12:38
yahnmariogrip, it's OK I managed to get UT installed on my OnePlus One13:09
yahnthanks for the work you've put into it13:09
mariogrip:)13:11
mterryondra, hello!  I didn't want to build art especially, but when I run make or make recoveryimage, that art makefile gets used somehow13:24
mcphailwligtenberg: out of interest, does your keyboard work properly on the rc-proposed channel?13:27
wligtenbergmcphail: I haven't tried. I will see if I can change channels later today (using a Nexus4 by the way)13:28
mcphailwligtenberg: I think rc-proposed has bluez5. I was wondering if that would magically fix it13:28
wligtenbergmcphail: I will look into switching channels13:29
wligtenbergnexus4 is mako, right?13:32
wligtenbergyep13:33
ondramterry it loads all makefiles for whole aosp project13:33
ondramterry but make sure you run lunch first13:33
mterryondra, I did13:34
mterryondra, and I'm running this all on my normal dev laptop right?13:34
ondramterry and this is AOSP or phablet?13:34
mterryondra, uh...  I did "repo init -u https://code-review.phablet.ubuntu.com/p/aosp/platform/manifest.git"13:35
ondramterry ok for what device is this?13:35
wligtenbergmcphail: switching channels as we speak :)13:35
mterryondra, armhf (krillin I guess is my testing device)13:35
ondramterry you need to choose right branch. this will probably sync something undefined13:36
ondramterry OK for krilin you need to sync different code13:36
ondramterry that tree is for AOSP devices like Nexus 4, 7,...13:36
mterryondra, well sure.  I have a nexus 4 I can use13:37
mterryondra, to keep it simple, I'll stay on this branch and use nexus 413:37
ondramterry OK then run $ repo init -b phablet-4.4.2_r113:38
ondramterry then repo sync13:38
wligtenbergjust curious, are you guys trying to get an Android Run Time working on Ubuntu, or what?13:38
mterryondra, what if I've already done a sync?  is that fine to switch or do I need to reset?13:39
mterrywligtenberg, me?  no, just the Android low level stuff that we use for Ubuntu Touch (drivers and such)13:41
wligtenbergmterry, ok, also cool, but I saw ART flashing by and was thinking what you guys would be doing. :)13:43
mterryondra, also... when I'm syncing, I get a lot of "git repository not found" messages.  Thus I have to use -f to get through it all.  Is that expected?13:44
mterryMaybe that's because I haven't been using the phablet branch13:44
wligtenbergmcphail: mmm, that is even worse... There BT just switches off...13:45
ondramterry yeah just run sync again13:46
ondra no harm13:46

mcphailwligtenberg: :(14:02
wligtenbergmcphail: shall I switch to the devel channel, to see if that helps?14:07
mcphailwligtenberg: no - the devel channel isn't for real people like you and me ;)14:08
wligtenbergmcphail: I ran the devel channel previously as well14:08
wligtenbergmcphail: It is not my normal device, just for playing with ubuntu14:08
mcphailwligtenberg: I'm not sure the devel channel actually works, most of the time. The usable improvements come through in rc and rc-proposed14:10
wligtenbergmcphail: ok, previously it worked most of the time. Sometimes it had bugs like not being able to install apps :)14:11
mcphailwligtenberg: I think it has be re-purposed since the old "working" days ;)14:12
wligtenbergmcphail: ok, you convinced me, I will stay out of that channel :)14:13
mcphailwligtenberg: I can't rememebr who looks after bluetooth (? is it awe_ ?), but I'm sure they would be interested in bug reports for your keyboard14:14
awe_mcphail, I'm not really the maintainer, but do work on BT14:15
awe_we're about to land Bluez5 in OTA9 ( which is already in rc-proposed )14:15
awe_if things don't work, then yes, a bug report would be super helpful14:16
mcphailawe_: good guess then :) ! wligtenberg has a bt keyboard which drops connection in OTA8.5 but doesn't work at all in rc-proposed14:16
wligtenbergawe_ on my nexus4 rc-proposed, bt just switches off14:16
awe_although any fixes will probably be deferred to OTA1014:16
awe_wligtenberg, randomly?14:16
wligtenbergawe_ I don't mind, not my daily driver :)14:17
wligtenbergawe_ yes, just after some time, it disables bt again14:17
wligtenbergawe_ I am looking at the bt bugs, to see if this has already been reported14:18
awe_k14:18
awe_https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingBluetooth14:18
awe_if you do report a bug, please read the above first, so you can provide us with the best info14:18
wligtenbergAccording to the link in the topic, I should be looking here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bugs14:18
awe_yes14:19
wligtenbergok14:19
awe_wligtenberg, does this appear to be a regression?14:19
awe_ie. does this appear to be new behavior that's shown up recently?14:19
wligtenbergawe_, yes, this was not happening before. Previously I was able to turn it on (and it would stay on) and I would be able to connect to my Sony BT keyboard, but then I was unable to use the keyboard.14:20
awe_we updated the kernels for all of our devices first, with the BT stack backported14:20
awe_then in after OTA8, we released the bluez5 userspace to rc-proposed14:20
awe_so that it would land for OTA914:20
wligtenbergawe_, I was using OTA 8.5, with the previous results, with ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu I have the issue that BT turns itself off14:20
awe_ok, just to be clear.  With OTA8.5, no problem, but with latest rc-proposed, the problem occurs?14:22
awe_we knew that there'd be some pain updating to bluez5, but it was something we had to do, as bluez4 was ancient, and unsupported14:23
wligtenbergawe_, to be precise, with OTA 8.5 (another problem), but the automatically switching off bt, is a problem introduced when switching from OTA 8.5 to rc-proposed.14:23
awe_got it14:23
awe_so please file a bug14:23
awe_and then ping me with the bug #14:24
wligtenbergyeah, I am looking if it is already reported, too many BT not working reports...14:24
awe_as I'd like to ensure that we tag it with "bluez5", so it gets a higer priority14:24
awe_wligtenberg, yea... the bug list is a bit out of control.  Don't spend too much time on looking for a dup14:25
awe_we'll tag your bug which will make it easier to track14:25
wligtenbergok, I will browse for a bit14:25
pmcgowanwligtenberg, that sounds specific to n4 perhaps14:26
pmcgowanalthough I think it works here, let me see14:26
awe_pmcgowan, bluez514:26
wligtenbergpmcgowan, that could be specific, I don't know :)14:26
awe_ie. it works with new kernel + bluez414:26
awe_but not with new kernel + bluez514:26
pmcgowanyeah but I have had proposed working for some time, let me check14:26
=== ubot5` is now known as ubot5
awe_wligtenberg, so also to be clear... at some point, your keyboard stops working, and when you check the BT indicator, it's moved to "off"?14:27
awe_on it's own?14:27
awe_when this happens, has the screen gone off at all14:27
awe_just wondering if the device may have suspended14:28
wligtenbergawe_, Currently, it never discovers the keyboard14:28
awe_with rc-proposed?14:28
wligtenbergawe_, yep14:28
awe_ok, sounds like another bug14:28
awe_what device are using then, to notice that BT has been disabled?14:28
wligtenbergI am looking at the Bluetooth settings menu14:29
wligtenberghit the button, get green checkmark, after a while it switches to grey again14:29
awe_ah... so it sounds like BT is never being "enabled"14:30
awe_when you flip the toggle14:30
awe_how long is "after a while"14:30
awe_?14:30
wligtenbergawe_, that could indeed also be the case, but then it takes a while to realize that it is off14:30
awe_right, but can you pair any other BT device after you flip the toggle?14:30
wligtenbergawe_, 30s14:31
awe_got it, so yea.. it sounds like enabling BT is failing14:31
awe_which is why you can't pair your kybd14:31
wligtenbergawe_, I have not tried anything else, I could try to find my old jawbone...14:31
awe_well... if you flip the toggle, and it flips back after 30s14:32
awe_then I doubt that'll work14:32
awe_I'll flash my N4 and try from my end14:32
wligtenbergawe_, I agree :)14:32
wligtenbergawe_, If I run bluetoothctl on the device and enter show, it says no default controller available14:33
pmcgowanawe_, there is a similar report for flo, did we not update those kernels?14:33
awe_pmcgowan, no; asked morphis about this yesterday and the kernel for flo was updated when we updated the mako kernel14:34
pmcgowanok14:34
awe_pmcgowan, and it's not the kernel14:35
awe_this broke when bluez5 userspace was released to the PPA14:35
awe_probablty related to rfkill14:35
morphiswligtenberg: can you share your syslog? that would help to get a better picture14:35
awe_morphis, I've asked him to file a bug and pointed him at the wiki page already14:36
awe_morphis, I'm flashing my N4 now too14:36
morphisgood14:36
awe_pmcgowan, here's our current list of bluez5 related bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bugs?field.tag=bluez514:36
mcphailawe_: as an aside, are you interested in tagging historic bugs (such as #1435040) as bluez5 if they are still present in rc-proposed?14:36
awe_mcphail, 'bluez5' is for bugs related to bluez514:37
mcphailawe_: so only for regressions from bluez4, rather than things which bluez5 didn't fix?14:37
awe_anything else should just have a 'Canonical System Image' task, and it'll be prioritized by the product team14:38
awe_mcphail, ack14:38
mcphailOK14:38
wligtenbergmorphis, sure14:38
morphiswligtenberg: as when the ctrl isn't available there is really something wrong14:38

wligtenbergawe_ I know, it is just such a pity that it didn't go through14:50
wligtenberghardware, is hard14:50
awe_we're still working like crazy on convergence.... but will have to wait for an OEM to step to the plate and spec the right hw14:50
awe_lmao14:50
awe_uh yea, you are correct sir14:50
awe_;D14:50
wligtenbergawe_, yeah, you want some decent specs then, which would be rather ridiculous for a normal phone. But I can totally picture using a phone as a computer while plugged in, it would also ease all the syncing issues you have when using multiple devices.14:52
wligtenbergawe_, but to also be able to test the convergence stuff, I bought an hdmi cable for my nexus4, it works fine, but no keyboard (or mouse) to test it with, yet...14:53
awe_wligtenberg, fyi... I just did a fresh flash of my nexus4 and BT works fine for me14:53
wligtenbergawe_ mmm14:53
awe_have you done any other modifications to your nexus4?14:53
wligtenbergnope, just flashed ubuntu14:54
awe_ie. is it still read-only filesystem?14:54
wligtenbergI have put it in devel mode, that is all14:54
awe_can you add your system-image details to the bug?14:54
wligtenbergsure14:54
awe_eg. system-image-cli -i14:54
wligtenbergrebooting it now, just to be sure14:54
wligtenbergyou never know when a reboot helps ;)14:55
wligtenberg(although it isn't windows)14:55
wligtenbergok, that seems to have helped...14:56
awe_wligtenberg, there may be a race condition; I'll try a couple of reboots on my end to see if I can reproduce14:56
wligtenbergit was now turned on after boot, and I turned it off and on again now for testing14:56
wligtenbergbluetoothctl, now show info14:58
wligtenbergso it seems on this boot, bt works14:58
awe_wligtenberg, do you have a valid SIM in the phone?14:59
wligtenbergawe, nope14:59
awe_ok14:59
awe_just wanted to be sure we have a similar setup14:59
wligtenbergawe_, I have now paired my keyboard15:02
wligtenbergawe_, and it works! (so that is progress from OTA 8.5!)15:03
awe_wligtenberg, I haven't been able to reproduce yet15:05
awe_I'll reboot a few more times, then will probably mark the bug as Incomplete15:05
wligtenbergawe_, sure, it might have been a fluke15:06
awe_can you update the bug and indicate that a reboot seems to have fixed the problem?15:06
wligtenbergawe_, already done that :D15:06
awe_cool, much thanks for the help!15:06
wligtenbergJust tested the hdmi as well, but that is now not changing the screen as well as before. (It now stays phone shaped)15:06
wligtenbergawe_ you are most welcome. The more people testing it, the better it will become.15:07

wligtenbergNo I just need a BT mouse :)15:08
wligtenbergand then show off at some local OSS/Linux gig15:08
* mcphail loves this channel15:09
wligtenbergawe_, just curious, are you working for Canonical?15:09
ondramterry when you synced master, that manifest is something old form 4.0 days, so god knows what you were building :)15:10
ondramterry you need to run full build first ($ make) then you can iterate through only portions of the build e.g. $ make recoveryimage15:10
mterryondra, I've added the -b argument needed to the Touch/Gerrit wiki, so hopefully future poor souls don't make the same mistake15:10
mterryondra, oh yeah?  OK, I had started with just recoveryimage and hit a build failure was about to look15:11
mterryWill go back and do full make15:11
ondramterry yeah, I thought it was always there since 4.4.2 port15:11
mterryAlso seems I need g++-4.815:11
ondramterry I'd expect make recoveryimage to fail in clean build env15:11
ondramterry yeah, we need same dependencies as aosp15:12
ondramterry I have android 5.1.1 tree running well15:12
ondramterry but recovery is only missing part in that tree15:12
awe_wligtenberg, yex15:20

ogra_haha, yeah15:38
ogra_anyway, i'd expect them to offer some html based access even without app ... but RTE89 is gone ...15:39
dobeyyeah15:39
dobeyogra_: they probably have a crappy web site that just says to install the android app, because our browser has "Android" in the user-agent15:40
dobeyso might need a custom webapp to tweak the user-agent, to be able to use that15:40
dobeyon the other hand, file sync services don't really fit well with the security and filesystem model of the ubuntu phone, either15:41
