Guest83532 | Any life in here? | 00:00 |
Guest83532 | Hello? | 00:01 |
nk1 | I'm here | 00:01 |
nk1 | but probably can't answer questions | 00:01 |
Guest83532 | You already answered the first one, lol | 00:01 |
Guest83532 | I'm assuming you've run into a dead end as well? | 00:02 |
nk1 | I ran into my dead end months ago | 00:02 |
nk1 | and left Ubuntu Touch for Sailfish :p | 00:02 |
Guest83532 | Yeah, what's your dead end? | 00:02 |
nk1 | I was using it on a Nexus 5 | 00:02 |
nk1 | via the UBPorts image | 00:03 |
nk1 | and kept installing updates which slowly made it less and less usable | 00:03 |
nk1 | until I installed one that basically stopped anything from running | 00:03 |
nk1 | and so I thought, "there's no way anyone would have pushed this if that was how it was supposed to work" | 00:03 |
Guest83532 | Really? How was it though before the stability issues? | 00:03 |
nk1 | so I reinstalled with the latest version at that time (this was back in September/October, IIRC) | 00:03 |
nk1 | and it didn't help | 00:04 |
nk1 | still nothing worked | 00:04 |
nk1 | so I switched to Sailfish | 00:04 |
nk1 | It was pretty good before the stability issues | 00:04 |
Guest83532 | What is sailfish? | 00:04 |
nk1 | https://sailfishos.org/ | 00:04 |
nk1 | it's a competing linux-based mobile OS | 00:05 |
nk1 | (I eventually stopped using it for the most part as well, but not because it didn't work, just because I decided I wanted to do a lot of things that required Android) | 00:05 |
Guest83532 | Yeah | 00:06 |
nk1 | Did you run into similar issues with Ubuntu Touch? | 00:06 |
Guest83532 | Ubuntu needs to snap it together and get this whole touch thing going and stable | 00:06 |
Guest83532 | I'm trying to put it on an HTC one m8 but its not working | 00:07 |
Guest83532 | Terminal keeps telling me its not on the list of devices | 00:07 |
nk1 | ah | 00:07 |
nk1 | That's probably not Ubuntu's fault, since IIRC they didn't make the M8 port | 00:07 |
nk1 | (For that matter, neither were my Nexus 5 issues, likely, for the same reason) | 00:08 |
Guest83532 | So what are you doin in here? | 00:08 |
nk1 | My IRC client connects to the channel automatically | 00:09 |
nk1 | but coincidentally, I happen to be in the position to change my phone configuration again | 00:09 |
nk1 | If I wanted to | 00:09 |
nk1 | since my phone seems to have broken | 00:09 |
nk1 | and I'm therefore in the market for a new one | 00:10 |
Guest83532 | Yeah | 00:10 |
nk1 | Ubuntu Touch compatibility is not super high on my priority list, but I would pay some heed to it | 00:10 |
nk1 | Actually | 00:11 |
nk1 | I don't see any mention of the One M8 on the Ubuntu Touch website; are you sure it's supported? | 00:11 |
nk1 | Guest83532: ^ | 00:12 |
Guest83532 | Well shit, best of luck to you man. I gotta hit the road | 00:12 |
dobey | it is not | 00:12 |
nk1 | Guest83532: thanks; best of luck to you as well | 00:12 |
dobey | i don't think there are any images for any HTC phones on either the official image server, or on ubports | 00:14 |
dobey | you would need to port to the device | 00:14 |

duud | Hi, I'm currently using devel_rc-proposed on system-image.ubports.com for hammerhead. I'm getting updates almost every day. I would like to see the commits/changes that are new. https://github.com/ubports hast the android side, but it had no changes for a while. So the changes must be on ubuntu-touch side, I can't find which repo contains the commits. So if anybody could help me with this pls. | 20:35 |
dobey | duud: i think the images get built daily regardless of whether anything actually changed. there really hasn't been any changes in the ubuntu tarball i don't think | 21:46 |
duud | dobey: thx, people on ubports told me the same | 22:28 |
