[02:17] Does ubuntu phone have die? [02:27] got an update to v34 a few days ago. [02:27] Suppose not. [02:28] cc: why? [02:30] little usful app... [02:31] aiyion: wechat,input method [02:31] Chinese people are more accustomed to using Sogou input method [02:32] but ubuntu phone cant use other input method [02:33] web wechat is very useless [02:38] and i hope more browser === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun === curtness is now known as strahtw === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk === stranger is now known as Guest52749 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [15:04] Hey has anyone used VPN Editor? [15:18] Hi === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk [18:34] hey I keep getting "this phone needs restoring from a pc or service center" [18:35] trying to flash a nexus 10 - i've made sure it's unlocked, that I did a fresh reflash of the stock 4.4.4 first - and also that i wiped the cache and userdata area first [18:35] still no joy - any ideas? [18:35] i can put android back on it no problem - but i wanted to take a look at ubuntu [18:38] i am using channel = ubuntu-touch/stable could that be the reason!? [18:43] i'll try loading something older than 4.4.4 on first [19:19] from what I'm reading lots of people have been having this issue lately - with barely anyone replying [19:20] so, ubuntu touch is broken - and no one cares... so I shouldn't either? move on? [19:21] although technically I'm using ubports from mariogrip [19:21] so maybe it's just that which is b0rked [19:22] it's also end-of-the-year holidays for many people [19:22] not for all the times people have had no replied i've read up on courtesy of google [19:34] well it seems it is just ubports - getting 'devel' from the main server seems to get further at least [19:34] even though from the main server it isn't strictly supported [19:35] i'm likely to hate this anyway [20:16] hi [20:21] hey :] [20:29] garybot, hi [20:35] hey Seb.. are you ubuntu dev too?? [20:37] i want to know if touch is available for oneplustwo devices.. [20:38] garybot, no an Ubuntu user [20:38] touch user etc [20:38] garybot, but [20:38] I know they have been working on ports for the one plus [20:38] garybot, you'll want the ubports website [20:38] ah nice.. :] [20:38] some deaisl there about ports etc, but I have a feeling they won't work that well currently [20:38] i'm a desktop user lol [20:38] or they do and don't [20:39] garybot, I have three Ubuntu devices, whe nI keep not up to date though inteniotnly since thought had lost hat phone before [20:39] other two I keep up to date or enough up to date [20:39] OnePlus One and OnePlus X [20:39] one I keep above.... [20:39] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices [20:39] i cant wait to try it on my phone but the page said it's not yet fully developed.. [20:39] garybot, exactly tht's what i MEAN [20:39] garybot, not everything will work properly as far as I know [20:40] if you put on a one plus phone [20:40] yeah I wanted to buy one plus one but new devices are no more available.. [20:40] garybot, it's not quite the same, but can get a bit of an idea what the tablet etc is like [20:40] anyway.. i got my one plus two today :] [20:40] if [20:40] you put unity 8 in the desktop ubuntu [20:41] garybot, but then you would have to put more snap packages yourself, and even libertine stuff in there, to make it more real :D [20:41] garybot, for some reason online plus doens't apppeal to me enough to buy or a google pixel for that matter [20:42] a part of me wnats to buy a second hand old nexus 5 maybe, so can play around with well various mobile oses [20:42] without buying yet another phone :d [20:43] lol my sister got a nexus 5... she wont let me mess with it xD [20:43] garybot, one plus hardware is a bit too powrful currently for ubuntu touch, what I mean is the os won't take full advantge of that hardware, since there isn't really anthing really powerful to run in it, except for my wireless convergence [20:43] except for maybe above [20:43] eventually she will get bored and hopefully buy a new phone so i can take it [20:43] but I have done the microsoft wireless adapater stuff with the hd tablet, and hdmi cable way to, it's not that impressive in reality [20:44] garybot, how old are you and your sisteR? [20:44] Seb there are two of you?? [20:44] different colour lol [20:44] uh / [20:44] ? [20:44] garybot, this is a high light if that's what you mean [20:45] i'm 22.. my sister is 20.. [20:45] one plus is a good phone [20:45] oh lol [20:45] nice you got that [20:45] ,but [20:45] xD [20:45] ubuntu touch is a bit uhmm limiting realy currently [20:45] as in what it can and cannot run, or can and cannot run really easily [20:45] it's a good os though ;) [20:46] grandrew, next two years things should become more exicitng, since the desktop ubuntu and phone and tablet, will all converge more, as in become more the same, [20:46] oh well the page for oneplus two says nothing works yet.. not even boot.. [20:46] so maybe i will wait.. [20:46] garybot, and become ubuntu perosnal as it's called [20:46] i also got some old android devices.. [20:46] garybot, have you tried unity 8 on desktop ubuntu ? [20:46] in 16.10 ? [20:46] like an old HTC desire and one HP tablet.. [20:47] garybot, right, but ubuntu touch only currently worsk on specific devices, the commerical devices ideally, then a few unoffical ports to such as for one plus a [20:47] yeah, but it won't just work on those devices [20:47] but they got no releases for custom ROMs or even ubuntu yet.. [20:47] ah well thanks for pointing that out.. [20:47] garybot, trying UNity 8 on the desktop is worth it, but bare in mind, to make that more useable, you would have to install well snaps [20:48] garybot, quite a few people seem to think it isnt so good the 16.10 version of it [20:48] i was wondering if i could build touch from source for those devices.. [20:48] garybot, main noticable thing that's diffenret currently to the desktop, in a ubuntu touch device, is yep the interface unity 8 [20:48] and things installed with that [20:49] unity 8 you mean the Game engine?? [20:49] garybot, what you don't know what unity is then ? [20:49] Ubuntu Unity [20:49] Canonical's Unity [20:49] !unity [20:49] Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity [20:49] oh yeah.. [20:49] i know.. [20:49] garybot, by default it's the old Unity 7 interface, but [20:50] Ubuntu 16.10 also has a Unity 8 preview session installed by default, but that it seems doesn't do much by default [20:50] unlike say when it's runing on the phone or tablet :) since other progarms installed there as well [20:50] but people can install snaps into it for more stuff anyway so [20:50] and even libertine it seems, but for desktop computer then, not phone or tablet. that's for running the old xorg progarms [20:51] ah well i will check it out.. been a while since i booted to ubuntu... I have dual boot system on my desktop.. [20:51] garybot, if you do all that, you'll have an idea what ubuntu touch is really like currently, espeicaly if you done it on a computer with a touch screen as well :D [20:51] mostly i use KAli linux.. [20:51] garybot, if you want lots of difenet apps from Andordi [20:51] garybot, or ios or something [20:51] you know common main strame apps [20:52] well no ubuntu touch realy isn't it currently [20:52] garybot, Ubuntu touch can run old xorg programs, firefox., libre office, etc etc :) [20:53] or uh unity 8 on desktop even, wehn that's set up [20:53] well i guess i should not try it on my new one plus then lol [20:54] i dont need main stream apps but on my new phone i guess i might require games xD [20:56] SebthreeBQM10HD, how can I get it running regular X11 apps? i just popped it on my nexus 10 [20:57] according to "dpkg -l" x11 isn't installed... also apt-get doesn't work, claims it can't write to /var/cache/apt [21:03] ah sod it who am i fooling [21:03] ubuntu touch is hideous [21:03] * Lantizia reflashes android [22:00] oh missed lantizia [22:00] garybot, your stil here? [22:12] yea... i'm around lol :] [22:14] guess Lantizia was not very happy lol.. [22:29] garybot, indeed [22:30] garybot, but its a bit limited compared to android [22:30] still good though [23:12] what the heck was he even wanting to do [23:12] i agree... if it was not a brand new phone i would get ubuntu === Bray90820_ is now known as bray90820
