tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, will look into this, read up about pkexec00:03
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Furthermore when I try to create a hotspot via cli:00:18
tgBot<TartanSpartan> nmcli dev wifi … *  SSID              MODE   CHAN  RATE      SIGNAL  BARS  SECURITY  … *  my-local-hotspot  Infra  1     0 Mbit/s  0       ____00:18
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Null signal.00:18
tgBot<lastdon82> anyone on dev 16.04 ?00:19
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Or wait, no that's not a cli but a gui hotspot. But still nothing.00:19
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Gonna try to flash a different baseband than the newest one I guess.00:20
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @KrisJacewicz, i just read this:  … https://askubuntu.com/questions/78352/when-to-use-pkexec-vs-gksu-gksudo … I still don't feel like I understand enough about pkexec. Surely it is more convenient because it is present by default. But I'm trying ro figure out a nature of a scenario where gksudo would actually be preferable. … However mentionning it has triggered me to dig more into the topic, so it's good.00:24
tgBot<Mattia> Merry Christmas guys!00:25
tgBot<theMitu> @TartanSpartan, Interesting. How did you print this? I'll check if it has upgraded for me. Honestly, after some time I see network is dropping like crazy again, so I can't tell if it has got any better or even worse :/00:33
tgBot<popescu_sorin> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/5JsO02rl/file_316300:48
tgBot<npatel33> @Flohack Still no luck in getting 15.04 armhf chroot using click. I tried to hack the script to accept packages from old release mirror but no luck.00:51
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @KrisJacewicz, the more i read the more it seems it is relevant how policykit is configured on the system. On UT it might default to same as on Ubuntu Desktop. For an ordinary app I suppose the pkexec would be a good way to go. However for app that uses low level features, that deals with system configs or with hardware, I am not sure if the policykit on UT is suitable for that. I just assumed that for gparted is better not to worry about that 00:51
tgBotjust gksudo. … I guess I will try to study up even more.00:51
tgBot<Flohack> @npatel33, Sorry I am not the right guy to help you with this ^^00:51
tgBot<npatel33> @Flohack, No worries. I think it can work in 14.04 but I don't know if it is a right choice for the development.01:02
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Told @theMitu how to find the modem printout on our 1:1 thread. We think we know the answer to our woes: you need TWRP version 2.8.6.0 to succesfully install a baseband (seemingly across many OEMs). If anyone knows where we can find this version for the Pro 5, priority request for you to please share it.01:15
tgBot<TartanSpartan> The fact that Android users also struggle with this (why a regression going to TWRP ver 3.0.0 and beyond happened is beyond me... >_<) is encouraging for Ubuntu Touch users, if we can find this version, it should be trivial to correctly flash the baseband.01:17
tgBot<TartanSpartan> Can't find it here:01:23

tgBot<wayneoutthere> @advocatux, Actually.... we have always encouraged a word of welcome from everyone to everyone, but we jump in to help make sure they get all the tools so everyone else can relax.  thanks for welcoming them! :)  I'll follow up now01:37

tgBot<npatel33> @Flohack It is finally working. I just had to copy one file in source tree root, that is clickable.json 😐 Clickable did the job.04:07
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @TartanSpartan since gparted doe snot start for me directly on the phone via xmir (only via ssh with x forwarding) I just wanted to show you how I get to use it (and bunch of other things) on the phone via XFCE destop:06:58

tgBot<Christopher> yikes it looks like I'll need to switch to devel if I want mobile data :/09:35
tgBot<alan_griffiths> Read on09:36
tgBot<asierurbi> i turned to devel, back again to stable, but after 2 reboots, the problem continues09:37
tgBot<asierurbi> i am using nexus509:37
tgBot<Flohack> Also, any CDMA users here, please confirm: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1909:37
tgBot<alan_griffiths> @asierurbi, you should add that experience to the bug report. Everyone reporting there says things are fine after the switch back to stable. If it doesn't always work that's an important clue.09:40

tgBot<advocatux> @asierurbi, Interesting. Which baseband version do you have in your N5? (Reboot into fastboot `power + Volume Down`, and look at "Baseband version -". … I did that stable-devel-stable path and it survives reboots. No problem with my N5 (other than battery life, but that's another story).10:47

tgBot<Mark> I thought OTA3 may have broken the GPS on my old BQ E4.5. A reboot with location switched nn got it up and running. Phew, on with the Humbug Holiday visits :)10:54
tgBot<Javacookies> LOL, I spoke too soon, the x forwarding I did on windows wasn't via USB....I forgot my wifi was one and the IP address I used was from wlan :D … anyway, I got it working through USB...this time I'm sure, I'll post a simple guide in the forums 👍11:06

tgBot<Javacookies> which device do you have?13:10
tgBot<Javacookies> on my Nexus 5, it seems that content hub doesn't work on any app13:10
tgBot<TimDev> Hey there, has anyone got QtWebEngine running on xenial with Qt 5.9? I was trying to run it with XMir, but I ran into "Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect: not accepted by server". Actually, this is what I get when trying to run any Qt app with XMir o.o I'm probably missing something 🤔13:12
tgBot<Waldbursche> @peternerlich, Webapp from Openstore13:14
tgBot<Waldbursche> On nexus 5 with 15.04rc13:16
tgBot<peternerlich> @Waldbursche, The one I have is v1.8 of the one by Mateo Salta13:16
tgBot<Waldbursche> @peternerlich, Same here13:24
tgBot<peternerlich> @Waldbursche, Good. Then I'll try that in a second13:25
tgBot<dohbee> @TimDev, trying to run what, where exactly?13:27
tgBot<TimDev> Hey @dohbee, this is what I tryed: https://github.com/lirios/browser/issues/61#issuecomment-35386762213:28
tgBot<dohbee> ok, you shouldn't need to use xmir for qt apps13:30
tgBot<dohbee> and you shouldn't be exporting DISPLAY=:0 ever, if you do need xmir13:31
tgBot<TimDev> Yeah, I can run Qt apps under Mir just fine except for stuff that uses QtWebEngine.13:32
tgBot<TimDev> @dohbee, ok thx, good to know :)13:33
tgBot<dohbee> @TimDev, WebEngine should work fine too, i would think. how did you install webengine?13:34
tgBot<TimDev> I installed the Qt 5.9 PPA for Xenial and installed the QtWebEngine package.13:34
tgBot<dohbee> oh13:35
tgBot<TimDev> s/PPA/repo/13:36
tgBot<dohbee> the xenial phone images already have 5.6.1 i think, which also had webengine (though it is not installed by default)13:36
tgBot<TimDev> Ah okay13:37
tgBot<dohbee> or might even be 5.7, i forget how far that got13:37
tgBot<JBBgameich> Xenial will probably ship with Qt 5.9 and there is already a ubports repository for Qt 5.913:37
tgBot<JBBgameich> On repo.ubports.com13:38
tgBot<dohbee> nobody arguing that13:38
tgBot<TimDev> This is what I have installed: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26251165/13:38
tgBot<dohbee> ugh, wifi being broken on my nexus 5 kind of sucks13:47
tgBot<dohbee> oh there is no webengine package in 5.6 i guess13:49
tgBot<TimDev> Ya, I was just looking for it, but looks like there is none.13:49
tgBot<dohbee> so yeah, don't set DISPLAY13:49
tgBot<dohbee> but also, it seems like qtwebengine needs some work to support mir :(13:50
tgBot* TimDev wondering whether it could be built with -opengl es2 ?13:50
tgBot<dohbee> i don't know. it basically needs whatever oxide had13:51
tgBot<dohbee> it's literally the same thing as oxide, but with a bit different API13:51
tgBot<peternerlich> @Waldbursche, Ookay, I think I can confirm.13:52
tgBot<peternerlich> (Photo, 540x111) https://irc.ubports.com/Y2c0SfYk/file_3175.jpg13:53
tgBot<TimDev> @dohbee thanks, you were right, the "Fatal server error" thing was because of me setting DISPLAY.13:56
tgBot<Waldbursche> @peternerlich, Same on my E5. Picture upload in twitter app dosn't work13:57

tgBot<Ingo_FP_Angel> Thanks for the welcome 😀15:04
tgBot<Crash_Burn> Ok, calling all UBports super users... I need some guidance with UBports-Installer on a Mac.  adb and fastboot is installed and working.  Phone is detected just fine but Installer.dmg doesn't pick it up and doesn't appear to have bundled ubuntu-device-flash.  Is there anyway to install and run ubuntu-device-flash directly from terminal in a Mac?15:11
tgBot<technicalbird> @Crash_Burn, How to check the exact no. Of members? I can see only 1k members15:13
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @technicalbird, Depends on client.  Desktop shows a closer number ... but not perfect... as we found out when we hit 1000.  Lots of people still read 999.15:16
tgBot<Lorxu> I read 1099 members on desktop15:17
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @Lorxu, me too now... Who left!? ;)15:18
tgBot<wayneoutthere> @advocatux, NOBOTS!!!!  LOVE IT!!15:18
tgBot<Crash_Burn> ubuntu-device-flash on a Mac?  Where did all the really smart people go? :)  @Lorxu .. your smart!15:22
tgBot<wayneoutthere> I went to bed and woke up and we're nearly 1100 members here! :)  Welcome to all the new ones15:22
tgBot<Lorxu> @Crash_Burn, It should be technically possible, I'd awesome ubuntu-device-flash to mostly just use adb calls which you could do on macOS as well. I haven't looked at the source code though, but it sounds like it may be possible to compile for macOS, maybe using Travis so nobody here needs to actually run macOS?15:24
tgBot<Lorxu> I'm not super experienced with macOS, but in most cases, if it runs on Linux, it can run on macOS15:25
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @Lorxu, oh wow... thanks for that answer.15:27
tgBot<Lorxu> These are just guesses though15:28
tgBot<Lorxu> But even AsteroidOS, which is a replacement for Android Wear, uses adb and fastboot for flashing, and I think I remember magic-device-tool using the same back in the day15:29
tgBot<wayneoutthere> If you're busy with the family and season and missing some important messages in this stream, don't forget you can sign up to the dedicated Telegram News Channel for UBports which condenses the key news, alerts in one clean place.  It's one click away here: https://t.me/ubports_news15:31

tgBotUBFRassist_bot was added by: peternerlich15:36
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @Lorxu, I knew you were smart =) It would be something if installer duplicated Udf instead if compiling and installing for mac.15:40
tgBot<Lorxu> "duplicated Udf"?15:40
tgBot<Crash_Burn> Instead of compiling for mac, re-creating the tool (adb push comands and cleanup) all over again inside the ubports tool.15:42
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> The installer does just do what udf does15:42
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Except it's written in Node and seems to be sensitive to the environment, which is not a good thin15:42
tgBot<Crash_Burn> ah... thanks Dalton.15:42
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @UniversalSuperBox Could use some help with Mac and UBports-Installer Julien15:44
tgBot<Crash_Burn> Everything is working smoothly,, except loses OPO when reboots to fastboot15:44
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Well, could try running it with administrative privileges. That seems to be a difficult step for all platforms.15:44
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> (I know, I know, we need to fix that)15:45
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @UniversalSuperBox, Is there a sudo in Mac?? LOL   .. sorry :P15:49
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yes, actually15:49
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> But I don't know where stuff gets put15:49
tgBot<XavierXX> What exactly is overwritten when flashing ubports?16:31
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> The recovery partition, and files at `/data/...`: … `system-data/, user-data/, android-data/, ubuntu.img, system.img,16:34
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Oh, boot partition too16:34
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> But with any flash event, assume that things can go wrong and back up all of your data before starting16:34

tgBot<Javacookies> there's 16.04 images for all devices now right? I don't see it in ubports installer though17:06
tgBot<G> Any suggestions for a Nexus 5 fresh install bootlooping? Installed from Windows, tried both stable and 16.04. doesn't go past Google logo, I can go into the Ubports recovery... It's not a stuck power button, works just fine .17:06
tgBot<Javacookies> how dangerous is it when the cable is disconnected while installing ubports? … usb connection with my Nexus 7 has been wonky regardless of the cable I use :(17:09
tgBot<RoyNL> @G, Use mdt from Ubuntu desktop to install. Google for it?17:10
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Javacookies, Well, the installation might stop. But otherwise you should be able to start again.17:10
tgBot<Javacookies> okay...that's a relief....the problem now is that I can't even start :D17:13
tgBot<dohbee> as long as you have battery, once all the files are pushed to the device and it reboots, it's all on the device side, so should be ok, given enough battery17:14
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> If either the recovery or bootimg flash were interrupted, doing them again will fix the problem17:15
tgBot<Javacookies> this will be my first time using the ubports installer...wish me luck...I still have android and multiROM ubuntu installed...is that okay? I checked "wipe"17:16
tgBot<dohbee> yeah, wipe will just wipe everything17:17
tgBot<dohbee> and pretty sure you have to wipe to flash with udf or ubports installer or such, in that case17:17
tgBot<nikhilbhalwankar> @Javacookies, Is it advisable to install those? They muat be in alpha stage right?17:18
tgBot<Javacookies> okay thanks!17:18
tgBot<nikhilbhalwankar> Must*17:18
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @G, Its boot-looping... thats my old friend the stuck power button.17:19
tgBot<Javacookies> @nikhilbhalwankar, yeah I know, I just want to try it before installing 15.04 devel :)17:19
tgBot<Crash_Burn> Hello G , Thomas and Jan .  Welcome to Ubports.  Please check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome for more information.17:19
tgBot<dohbee> i put 16.04 on my nexus 517:20
tgBot<nikhilbhalwankar> 15.04 based stable OTA3 is already out17:20
tgBot<dohbee> but well, my nexus 5 is pretty much useless, so there's that17:20
tgBot<G> @Crash_Burn, nope, verified it's not that :)17:20
tgBot<Javacookies> I now have a Nexus 5 in quintet-boot setup so my Nexus 7 is now free :D … I can do whatever I want :P17:20
tgBot<Javacookies> @dohbee, do you have the app drawer in 16.04? on mine, it's still not there but I saw a somehow old g+ post and it shows the app drawer in 16.0417:21
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @G, How?  Don't break the screen! 😜17:22
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @G... sorry.. didn't read your entire note!!!  SORRY everyone17:23
tgBot<Crash_Burn> G You had me at bootlooping! LOL17:23
tgBot<Jan> Thanks Will. I'm using my Nexus still in productivity so will have to wait before being able to flash and test... :)17:24
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @Jan, Perfect.  Just rip that bandaid off ;P17:25
tgBot<Crash_Burn> Jan Happy to have you here.  When you are ready to switch over we can help.17:26
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @G, Are you trying to install 16.04 to N5?17:27
tgBot<Jan> @Crash_Burn, 👍17:29
tgBot<G> @Crash_Burn, tried both 16.04 and 15.04 - same result. Recovery is there and everything seems to be going normal. I'll retry with a Ubuntu installer as suggested by @Roy17:29
tgBot<mileskjeller> @G, Try a different usb cable and port17:30
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @G, I think you will want to stick with 15.04 atm.17:30
tgBot<mileskjeller> I know it sounds insane, but I couldn't get either to install for the life of me initially17:30
tgBot<mileskjeller> then I changed USB cable and the installer started working17:31
tgBot<Crash_Burn> It sounds like it installed... or sort of.. which is strange.17:31
tgBot<mileskjeller> Yeah, mine went as far as the recovery too17:31
tgBot<mileskjeller> then didn't reboot into it17:31
tgBot<mileskjeller> so the installer hung17:31
tgBot<Crash_Burn> With the phone boot-looping... it sounds like enough was flashed to try to launch UT.   Anyway.. I'd go ahead and flash again.  I personally perfer the ubuntu-device-flash command @ fastboot (https://devices.ubports.com/#/hammerhead)17:34
tgBot<dohbee> @Javacookies, i don't think so. that old post was probably for the work going on early this year17:36

tgBot<Javacookies> but I was hoping to get the new stuffs in development before UT was dropped...looks like they aren't there17:45
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> 16.04 is all of the 15.04 software but on 16.0417:45
tgBot<dohbee> well, c++ click apps won't work (ie telegram), but anything that's pure qml or a webapp should work fine still17:46
tgBot<Javacookies> I had the silo installer before and the new silos at that time were for 16.04 only :(17:46
tgBot<dohbee> @Javacookies, much of it probably won't be. a lot of that work was also in moving to an all-snaps system. and that doesn't make sense for ubports17:46
tgBot<Javacookies> @UniversalSuperBox, okay I see, thanks for the info17:46
tgBot<Javacookies> there were interesting stuffs....xmir related stuffs like multi-window with parent-child, proper menus in the toolkit, workspace switcher17:48
tgBot<Javacookies> I really missed testing them out :) … good thing Ubports came so I'll get to do that somehow17:49
tgBot<Javacookies> how about a silo installer? is that used in UBports or is it a proprietary of Canonical?17:49
tgBot<dohbee> there are no silos17:50
tgBot<dohbee> yeah, there was a lot of interesting stuff, but a lot of it is just sitting in limbo now, and a lot of the pieces (especially in the lower levels) would just not be sensible for ubports as it is17:52
tgBot<ronnietucker> Can 16.04 be installed on the Meizu MX4?17:58
tgBot<dohbee> @ronnietucker, https://system-image.ubports.com/ubports-touch/16.04/devel/ suggests it is possible18:04
tgBot<dohbee> whether it actually installs and boots though, i don't know :)18:04
tgBot<ronnietucker> So, basically, I'd be a guniea pig? Seems reasonable.  :D18:07
tgBot<samitormanen> it would be cool if people tests 16.04 on different devices and report "what works" eg. in forums..18:09
tgBot<ronnietucker> @samitormanen, I'll be an MX4 guinea pig then.  :)18:13

tgBot<mashfred> @peternerlich thanks 👍18:20
tgBot<Javacookies> as requested by someone here, I forgot who :D … hopefully it'll be useful to someone out there. I don't take credit on this knowledge.

tgBot<profetik777> an interesting feature for cultivating engagement and concrete committment...does ubports have something like this for non-dev things?18:38
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Source?18:48
tgBot<dohbee> looks like a kde wiki page18:49

tgBot<profetik777> it was part of their goals page for 2018, heard about it from the destination linux podcast18:50

tgBot<ronnietucker> @samitormanen, Well, 16.04/dev installs fine on the MX4. Reported that the File Manager doesn't work (loads to a white screen) but pretty much everything else works.   👍19:38
tgBot<ronnietucker> Oops, and going to 'Accounts' won't let me sign in with Google.19:47
tgBot<Flohack> @dohbee, Not true, Telegram works fine here. On 16.04 😆19:48
tgBot<Flohack> I could not believe myself19:48
tgBot<Flohack> Seems statically linked, can it be?19:48
tgBot<dohbee> from the click?19:48
tgBot<Flohack> yep I just switched my OPO to 16.0419:48
tgBot<Flohack> Did not wipe19:48
tgBot<Flohack> everything works19:48
tgBot<Flohack> with Telegram at least 😆19:49
tgBot<dohbee> i would be surprised that it works19:49
tgBot<Flohack> I am too19:49
tgBot<dohbee> considering the c++ abi broke19:49
tgBot<Flohack> This maybe explains why it has 5MB install size ^^19:49
tgBot<dohbee> 5mb is too small for static19:49
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Hmm... Did we hold back GCC or CPP? I hope not.19:50
tgBot<dohbee> and linking qt static is a pain, so i doubt it is19:50
tgBot<Flohack> hmm ok19:51
tgBot<Flohack> streange though19:51
tgBot<dohbee> yeah.19:56
tgBot<dohbee> are you sure 16.04 actually flashed, and it didn't just boot back into 15.04? :)19:57
tgBot<Julien> Hello everyone, do anyone know about this issue ?20:01

tgBot<Julien> (Document) https://irc.ubports.com/HLf0iNwO/file_3180.png20:01
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @dohbee, Yes, telegram works on 16.0420:05
tgBot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox, well, that's extremely lucky20:05
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Most apps do20:06
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @Crash_Burn, Today I tried to flash to 16.04/devel but Ubuntu-device-flash got stuck right after downloading img from ubports server; then I switched to magic-device-tool but it didn’t find any other channel than legacy for my hammerhead20:06
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Unless they use Oxide20:06
tgBot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox, "most" apps are just webapps, or plain qml, and yeah, would work20:06
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @stefanomelchior, Boot to recovery and remove the `--bootstrap ` witch20:06
tgBot<dohbee> things that provide their own qml plug-ins in c++ though, are expected to break. and scopes are expected to break. (things from clicks that is, not things installed in rootfs)20:07
tgBot<dohbee> anyway20:07
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @UniversalSuperBox now it seems to work better; now the question is: is it the future rule not to use "--bootstrap" with ubuntu-device-flash or is it only for 16.04/devel channel?20:14
tgBot<dohbee> boostrap is only for flashing from fastboot mode20:15
tgBot<dohbee> and for wiping all data20:15
tgBot<dohbee> general rule is you shouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary20:16
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @dohbee thanks for that info, I didn't figure it out before20:16
tgBot<dohbee> sure20:17
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @UniversalSuperBox it might be useful to detail it on ttps://wiki.ubports.com/wiki/How-to-install-Ubuntu-Touch-16.04, for instance, mightn't it?20:18
tgBot<stefanomelchior> on the other hand I was suprised the magic-device-tool didn't offer me different channels rather than only legacy20:19
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> MDT is not going to have support for Ubuntu Touch for much longer20:21
tgBot<stefanomelchior> I noticed 2 things: the ubuntu store is still present in the app screen and in diagnostic when you enable "report to canonical" app crashes and errors it should be disabled as soon as they won't support or need to receive error log for UT. do they make sense?20:36
tgBot<dohbee> canonical doesn't support or need to receive crash reports for ut already20:37
tgBot<dohbee> but the service they report to, isn't going anywhere20:37
tgBot<balcy> @UniversalSuperBox, won't oxide be in 16.04 at all ? Oh than one bugfix I did there will never be seen in a release. :  (  the bug of reappearing text in the input fields...20:40
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yeah, it will20:40
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> It just doesn't work yet20:40
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> I think it's an apparmor thing20:40
tgBot<balcy> ah ok :  )20:40
tgBot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> @Flohack it possible, implement in native client Telegrame, some action to, redowload something... like video(big file) or image(big file)... some time happen, that this files not download completly, and is "imposible" redownload in native client... this issue is old... but I have de dubt that is possible make somethig?? Thanks in advance!20:40
tgBot<balcy> but in the long run you will use QtWebEngine, as I've read (ok is much less maintenance)20:41
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @dohbee good to know it20:41
tgBot<dohbee> why does my nexus 5 have to boot twice20:41
tgBot<dohbee> so weird20:41
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @balcy, Maybe... we aren't there yet20:42
tgBot<balcy> alright, step by step ... just one thing: in Launchpad it was possible to see which release a fixed bug is connected to. How can I find it out here ?20:43
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @dohbee did anyone with nexus 5 with 16.04 feel it is a bit faster? or does it only seem it to me?20:43
tgBot<dohbee> it is definitely slow here20:44
tgBot<stefanomelchior> moreover there is no updates icon in system setting, isn't it?20:44
tgBot<balcy> e.g. https://github.com/ubports/keyboard-component/issues/720:44
tgBot<balcy> would be great if than can be in the next OTA20:45
tgBot<dohbee> @stefanomelchior, indeed20:45
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @dohbee it does seem to me20:46
tgBot<dohbee> it's got the newer design of system-settings too20:47
tgBot<stefanomelchior> yes, that is cool20:47
tgBot<stefanomelchior> but it misses the updates botton20:48
tgBot<stefanomelchior> how to update the system then?20:48
tgBot<dohbee> hmm, upstart seems pretty busy20:48
tgBot<dohbee> yeah, someone will have to revert the change that removed that20:49
tgBot<dohbee> it was removed back when switch to 16.04 was also a switch to snaps, and so we got rid of the system-image stuff in system-settings20:49
tgBot<dohbee> huh, my nexus 5 thinks bluetooth is on anyway, even though it doesn't work20:51
tgBot<Flohack> @David_Gamiz_Jimenez, I know its on the list... like 50 other bugs ^^21:06
tgBot<stefanomelchior> @dohbee does your openstore work? I could not find any app in? neither if I start a search21:09
tgBot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> @Flohack, Sorry... is totally true... :/ This days my family, that it far away of me, send videos of the holidays and well, this videos and photos are so big jejeje and sometimes I dont have well conection data... and this issue afected this days more than normal situation :)21:14
tgBot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> Another bug that this days have is whit Podbird(awesome app)... is possible the dev is here... I can report this bug in someplace?? Thanks in adavance again! :)21:16
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Podbird bugs are tracked at https://launchpad.net/podbird21:16
tgBot<dohbee> @stefanomelchior, My hardware is broken, so I have no WiFi at all21:22
tgBot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> @UniversalSuperBox, Thankkkkksssss!21:25
tgBot<npatel33> Hi guys, I am solving one annoying problem of keyboard popup with Notes app. Keyboard pops up inside Mainview even if the view doesn't have keyboard input. I can hide the keyboard forcefully but It is not the right approach as per QML docs.22:00
tgBot<npatel33> Has anyone faced such problem before?22:01
tgBot<AresMinos> When Ubuntu Touch gets full Android app support, there is no more need for FairPhone to ship Android on their devices. … Do you know if the FairPhone will just release their phones with Ubuntu Touch exclusively?23:35
tgBot<dohbee> Doubtful23:39
tgBot<RenanPrastaJenie> @AresMinos, Locking to an OS defeat the purpose for being a Fair Phone,even if it Us, sorry 😉🙏23:56
tgBot<RenanPrastaJenie> User should be able to install their OS of choice23:57
