[04:29] <happydaddy> Hey. First time in this channel.
[04:32] <happydaddy> Just installed ota 13 and wondering if it has smb (cifs) so I can share media w/out connecting cables
[04:38] <JanC> I'm too lazy to check, but I doubt the phones have Samba installed
[04:38] <JanC> you can enable ssh though, and there are some apps for sharing using FTP & bluetooth
[04:40] <happydaddy_> OK.
[04:53] <happydaddy> Hey. Sorry but I'm new to cir but excited to try my new Ubuntu touch on nexus4
[04:54] <happydaddy> Irc not. Cir   I'm wondering how to make the most of ota 13
[04:57] <happydaddy> Like can I use the terminal in a normal Ubuntu way? Sudo apt get install
[05:00] <RAOF> You can use the terminal, but not apt (without potentially breaking updates)
[06:33] <m0n5t3r__> for the record, sshfs works just fine, no need for samba
[08:45] <core86> any one here?
[08:47] <test> test
[08:49] <intelpc> has anyone succellfully boot ubuntu touch on x86 hardware?
[08:50] <popey> intelpc: kind of. unity 8 works on x86 laptops/desktops
[08:51] <popey> intelpc: but not touch, we haven't ever done a full port of the whole stack to an x86 *phone*
[08:52] <intelpc> hi popey nice to meet you
[08:52] <intelpc> any url for unity8?
[08:53] <popey> Well, our 16.10 release ships with unity 8 pre-installed
[08:53] <popey> as a login option
[08:53] <intelpc> but the UI in 16.10 is for touch screen?
[08:54] <intelpc> unity 8 is the default option?
[08:55] <popey> Unity 8 is an option in 16.10. Not the default, but you can choose it during login
[08:56] <intelpc> I try it now.
[08:56] <intelpc> dd if=ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso\
[08:57] <intelpc> previous question
[08:58] <intelpc> i have download all file from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/
[08:58] <intelpc> how to boot ubuntu touch on x86 hardware
[08:59] <intelpc> i am famility with many bootload software grub isolinux clover
[08:59] <intelpc> and know what is efi and mbr
[08:59] <intelpc> any tips for boot ubuntu touch on x86 hardware?
[09:01] <popey> typically you copy that iso to a usb stick and boot off the usb stick
[09:01] <intelpc> waty
[09:01] <intelpc> wait
[09:01] <intelpc> you mean ubuntu desktop or ubuntu touch?
[09:03] <popey> touch is basically unity 8 on mir
[09:03] <popey> we don't have generic x86 images which are identical to the phone ubuntu touch (unity8) images
[09:03] <intelpc> which iso i should download? mir?
[09:04] <intelpc> the file in http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/ is for what?
[09:04] <popey> What hardware are you installing on?
[09:05] <intelpc> many
[09:05] <intelpc> atom corem i3 i5
[09:05] <intelpc> are tablet notebook
[09:06] <intelpc> tablet and notebook
[09:06] <intelpc> just wander how to use those file .   using grub?
[09:06] <popey> ok, so our best supported image is the 16.10 release, http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/
[09:07] <intelpc> sorry
[09:07] <intelpc> we don't talk ubuntu desktop
[09:08] <popey> What is the ultimate goal?
[09:08] <intelpc> i mean this variant : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
[09:08] <popey> We don't have images of that for x86 devices.
[09:09] <popey> 08:51 < popey> intelpc: but not touch, we haven't ever done a full port of the whole stack to an x86 *phone*
[09:09] <popey> as I said :)
[09:09] <intelpc> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/
[09:09] <intelpc> have you see the *i386* image in this url?
[09:09] <intelpc> what platform these image build for?
[09:10] <popey> generic x86 devices
[09:10] <popey> laptops, tablets, touch screen devices with x86 processors
[09:10] <intelpc> how to use these image? via grub?
[09:10] <popey> also, the x86 based emulator
[09:11] <intelpc> they cannot run on real hardware?
[09:11] <popey> I don't know, I don't know of any x86 hardware they have been used on
[09:11] <popey> someone else might.
[09:11] <intelpc> yes
[09:11] <intelpc> i heard
[09:12] <intelpc> i heard someone in community who install ubuntu touch on a Thinkpad 8 tablet
[09:12] <popey> I wouldn't use those images though
[09:13] <intelpc> first, if i have skill such as: boot android x86 on hardware, familier with most boot loader. and well know linux.
[09:14] <intelpc> so any little tips for me on how to use those file on real x86 hardware?
[09:16] <intelpc> i don't see any info about how to boot ubuntu touch using a bootloader
[09:16] <intelpc> after google
[09:17] <intelpc> just need a little guide or info
[09:17] <intelpc> not need a step-by-step guide
[12:32] <konnn> Hello. Is there ant way to edit, via developer mode, and set IMEI settings?
[12:35] <popey> I think that stuff is buried away in another partition. You may need a tool from the manufacturer to do that. I don't think we provide the tools to do it.
[13:41] <mcphail> I don't think canonical would be allowed to distribute a tool to change IMEI
[16:07] <konnn__> Hello,
[16:07] <konnn__> after reflashing from android to ubuntu touch, the sim cards were unable to register to the network. Searching I noticed that IMEI numbers were not set. In android there is the engineer mode where someone can set these by getting there.
[16:07] <konnn__> Is there any way to do it in ubuntu touch, even if I have to edit system files?
[16:25] <dobey> konnn__: you need to ask your device manufacturer about how to restore the IMEI. you can't do it from within ubuntu touch, afaik
[16:27] <konnn__> well, thank you for your reply
[16:27] <dobey> you need a special tool from the manufacturer, generally, to fix IMEI and such
[16:28] <konnn__> there are tools for that in android, so certainly in ubuntu is unable?
[16:28] <konnn__> Is due to the device or th OS?
[16:28] <AngelXenial> what devices is it dobey ?
[16:28] <dobey> it's not my device, so i don't know
[16:29] <konnn__> It is the BQ E5
[16:29] <AngelXenial> try flashtools of bq
[16:29] <dobey> well i guess you have the tool already. afaik it's the same tool used to repartition the device
[16:29] <dobey> which is exactly how you would have broken it
[16:29] <konnn__> sort of
[16:30] <konnn__> but I tried to reflash
[16:30] <konnn__> when I set the IMEI via engineer mode in android is ok
[16:30] <konnn__> then, I try to reflash to ubuntu but ...
[16:31] <konnn__> imeis lost again
[16:31] <konnn__> is there a mode to repartition in that tool>
[16:31] <konnn__> ?
[16:32] <konnn__> or icluded in the flash function?
[16:32] <dobey> the partitioning is different for ubuntu than for android. i'm pretty sure there is a way to repartition without flashing, yes
[16:32] <AngelXenial> try this  guide http://techprolonged.com/2015/12/fix-invalid-imei-restore-nvram-nandroid-sp-flash-tool/
[16:32] <dobey> anyway, for specifics on how to fix the issue you really need to talk to bq support
[16:36] <konnn__> Well, I' ll tha method, thank you.
[16:44] <Mister_Q> konnn__, as I told you on github the fix on android is just a software fix. ubuntu looks for the imei partitions for that. you really should send it to bq to get it fixed
[16:46] <konnn__> Ok, I certainly deeply consider your recomendations and feel thank for that.
[16:48] <konnn__> Also, shall go through IAW the previous link and indetify if that is a software or hardware fix?
[16:51] <Mister_Q> I had that problem on one of my devices before and it was just a software fix that wasnt recognized on ubuntu after I tried
[16:53] <konnn__> IAW  http://techprolonged.com/2015/12/fix-invalid-imei-restore-nvram-nandroid-sp-flash-tool/ ?
[17:03] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[17:06] <Mister_Q> konnn, yes it was similar to that
