krowvHi, i’m working on building Ubuntu Phone from source.  Do I still use vivid-preinstalled-touch-armhf.tar.gz?01:50
krowvwith rootstock?01:50
Stanley00krowv: I just wonder which guide you are following. I could only find the guide for porting, which is build kernel, and use prebuilt system image.02:35
krowvone second02:36
krowvhttps://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/porting-new-device/02:36
krowvIt is mentioned on that page02:36
krowv“You can find the latest Ubuntu rootfs image at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/vivid-preinstalled-touch-armhf.tar.gz."02:36
krowvand it talks about putting the phone into fastboot and then using rootstock to I guess inject that filesystem into the system.img on the phone02:38
Stanley00yeah, I read the link before, that is just build kernel (more precisely is building minimal android system for lxc) and use prebuilt ubuntu system image)02:39
Stanley00so, vivid is current stable release, so you should go with it02:40

krowvStanley00: Ok.  I built the minimal android system.  next I need to try and load onto my nexus 4 via fastboot and then see if I can get rootstock to play nice and load the prebuilt ubuntu system image04:02
Stanley00krowv: good luck to you then :304:03

krowvStanley00: Thanks.  My ultimate goal is to make this work on a Samsung Galaxy S4.04:11
krowvFigured I would start on the reference platform first04:12
Stanley00krowv: I think that have an image here, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/i9505, little old, but I cannot check xda-forum thread right now04:14
krowvYeah, I’ve looked at that link.  I have a slightly different version of the S4 so I’m not sure if that would even work.  I’m being methodical about this, and have been learning AOSP and ubuntu phone internals along the way04:16
Stanley00krowv: oh, I see04:16
krowvStanley00: Once I finish get things working with the Nexus 4 with Ubuntu phone from source then I’ll fully turn my attention to the S4.04:17
krowvIf I’ve been researching correctly though I need to locate vendor Samsung drivers for 4.4.2, get a working devices directory, and potentially do things to the kernel?04:18
krowvand also I could run into problems tweaking mir and such.04:18
Stanley00I'm not familiar with building process actually.04:20

jgdxmardy, hey, xenial11:27
mardyjgdx: mmm... I get this: Error downloading stage packages for part 'ubuntu-system-settings': no such package 'aethercast'11:28
jgdxmardy, you're using my snapcraft branch?11:29
jgdxmardy, aethercast was made a suggests, so just remove that from stage-packages11:30
mardyjgdx: yes, your branch; or should I use trunk instead?11:30
jgdxmardy, this has not landed yet, so you need that branch. I can push a fix11:31
mardyjgdx: thanks, in the meantime I'll just remove that line then11:32
mardyjgdx: same for qml-module-biometryd?11:33
jgdxmardy, I think that was mir'd11:34
davmor2jgdx: are you sure I thought it was dropped I could be wrong11:36
davmor2jgdx: willcooke might know11:36
willcookeyeah it was11:37

ubot5Ubuntu bug 1626095 in biometryd (Ubuntu) "[MIR] biometryd" [Undecided,Fix released]11:37
jgdxi don't understand, fix released = dropped? davmor2, ? :)11:52
davmor2jgdx: hey if dropping it fixed the issue that would be fix released :P11:53

angel_sorry I have a problem with a bq ubuntu edition I have the IMEI number, but I do not see how I can solve13:45
angel_sorry I have a problem with a bq ubuntu edition I have the IMEI number, but I do not see how I can solve14:03
dobeyangel_: be patient, and just ask your question. if someone can help you, they will. if you somehow managed to erase the partition with the IMEI data, you need to use the bq tool, and maybe ask bq for help there.14:05
angel_ok14:06
mardyjgdx: you didn't remove qml-module-biometryd, did you forget to push a commit?14:14
jgdxmardy, sorry, was that mird or not? Without qml-module-biometry the security panel won't function14:26
mardyjgdx: it was MIRd in yakkety, but you told me to build in xenial :-)14:31
jgdxmardy, oh man, sorry. xenial+overlay14:32
jgdxokay, need to rethink that one14:33

rubencarneiro1dobey i been trying to port to nexus 521:39
dobeyrobru: nexus 5 already has a port at ubports.com21:40
robrurubencarneiro1: ^21:41
rubencarneiro1not working right at the time21:41
rubencarneiro1in fact the devel_rc-proposed has the same bug21:42
dobeystable should work ok, as should rc-proposed21:42
rubencarneiro1stable, has problems with apparmor, no file share, no thumbnails, cant some apps like hungups that uses pyotherside21:43
dobeyit's not perfect, no. but you really should work with the ubports people instead of trying to do another independent port21:44
rubencarneiro1is not my quest to do an independent port, just wanna find some solutions for some of the problems since i own a device i build and test, when i find a solution if i find some solutions i share with them21:46
dobeyrubencarneiro1: you are trying to use android 5 yes?21:49
rubencarneiro1yes im using ubports device tree and repo21:51

rubencarneiro1sorry for my english im portuguese21:52
dobeyrubencarneiro1: ok, well first thing you should do is take a screen shot and then look at the .png on a PC. if the .png looks right, it's probably a lower level issue than unity821:53
dobeywell it probably is a lower level issue than that anyway. but seems likely it could be an issue as a result of changes in the driver for the newewr kernel21:53
dobeyanyway, i have to go. good luck21:55
rubencarneiro1the only thing that is messeup is unity 8 dash and apps "scopes", notification bar and unity launcher bar is ok, also lock screen is lokking good, as well passpromot at lockscreen, every screenshot i take look exactally as it look at the phone21:55
rubencarneiro1the screen corruption is only on unity21:56
