ubptgbot<AmolithSeregion> @shezuker, Welcome to the UBports SG, David! Check out this link to get you started!  β€¦ https://ubports.com/telegram-welcome00:01
ubptgbot<Chris Minetti> Thank you for that link.  I believe my issue is due to my provider not being listed in my serviceproviders.xml file (My SIM is active but my phone isn't).00:16
ubptgbot<Chris Minetti> Are there any clever ways to modify that file outside of using nano on my device?00:20
ubptgbot<Chris Minetti> Nevermind.  I figured it out.00:22

ubptgbot<ogami itto> Hello Guys I wanted to share this article with you, prices for android devices might increase. This would give an opportunity for Ubuntu Touch os https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-loses-oracle-appeal-may-owe-billions/?utm_content=buffer2254b&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=dt-buffer05:38
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Riojhe, See https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html05:55
ubptgbot<advocatux> @OnePlus3T_Gaurav, Oneplus 3T is "work in progress"05:58
ubptgbot<advocatux> @ogami itto, Hmm...  a link with a Facebook referrer πŸ€” … (Can you edit the link and delete everything from "?" included?)06:05
ubptgbot<advocatux> Thank you06:05

ubptgbot<advocatux> The possibility of more expensive Android devices is not good for UT06:08
ubptgbot<advocatux> At least for now06:08
ubptgbot<ogami itto> @advocatux, Sorry, here is the link cleaned up https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-loses-oracle-appeal-may-owe-billions/06:13
ubptgbot<ogami itto> @advocatux, I thought manufacturers would be more keen to back alternative OS?06:14
ubptgbot<advocatux> That's why I said "at least for now". We need Android devices for porting. I don't see a significant manufacturer support in the near future06:17
ubptgbot<advocatux> Also if Google has to pay in the end but don't affect the manufacturers, they doesn't care06:21
ubptgbot<advocatux> [Edit] Also if Google has to pay in the end but don't affect the manufacturers, they don't care06:21

ubptgbot<Stereofont> Hello Gaurav and Control Denied. To check out more about UBports, look here … https://ubports.com/telegram-welcome08:24
ubptgbot<Pgcor> @dohbee, Continuing the example: considering the diffusion of UT, if there are 4 people in a same town using UT, I think this is acceptable to publish the webapp. … Anyway, a way to find a compromise would be a different OpenStore's apps' compartisation/organisation, so webapps would be separated from properly said apps: otherwi10:13
ubptgbotse, just like now, often it happens to see a little of chaos, especially in the "New and updated apps" space. … Generally, my opninion about this is that yes, in open-source and free world we have freedom (of developing, using code, publishing etc), but like with all, we must distinguish between "use" and "abuse" (hope this is the right word)10:13
ubptgbot<K31j0> 4 people in a same town using UT? That'd be some miracle, I've never seen anybody in my town using anything other than the  triopoly bois(Android/WP/iOS)10:18
ubptgbot<advocatux> @K31j0, Go to Ubucon in GijΓ³n (Spain) and you'll see more than 4 people using UT devices in the same town πŸ˜‰10:53
ubptgbot<mimecar> 5 persons, all the users of the World 😝😝😝😝10:54
ubptgbot<advocatux> I can't go, so 4 people then πŸ˜†10:58

ubptgbot<zoomer296> @K31j0, You've actually seen people using Windows phone?12:12
ubptgbot<YougoChats> i did in the past mostly people coming from blackberry, going for the integration of MS services (exchange and stuff) only to realise that while exchange works, it also works on other platforms anyways and the rest of the phone sucks.  nowadays i only see windows phones at work, when the only option is a windows phone with averag12:18
ubptgbote specs or an apple phone with low specs12:18
ubptgbot<YougoChats> half of them end up switching to low spec apple later on🀣12:18
ubptgbot<YougoChats> android is much wanted because of customizability, but a nightmare and a no go for security and remote management. i agree with the company on that one12:20
ubptgbot<YougoChats> [Edit] i did in the past. Mostly people coming from blackberry, going for the integration of MS services (exchange and stuff) only to realise that while exchange works, it also works on other platforms anyways and the rest of the phone sucks.  nowadays i only see windows phones at work, when the only option is a windows phone wit12:20

ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> @YougoChats, Nice summary of triopoly....such a screwed up situation...   thats why we must all (I'm talking to all 1430+ of you!) *DO* something in our community. Even if you gave 10 minutes of help per day we would explode into mainstream in 6 months (mark my words)12:50
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> The time is now. You can feel free to PM me and I personally will try to help you find a nice spot in community.  Just start doing something this week :)12:51

ubptgbot<Mark Mullins> Hey does ubports have telegram14:35
ubptgbot<K31j0> you mean does ubuntu touch have telegram client?14:36

ubptgbot<YougoChats> [Edit] check the open store and discover a whole new world14:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Mark Mullins, you're in the tg group for it. the native telegram client is pretty far behind on API version though, so a lot of newer telegram features don't really work in it14:40
ubptgbot<Mark Mullins> Is tumblr available for Ubuntu phone15:37
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Mark Mullins, there is no native app. just the web site. just browse https://open-store.io if you want to know what apps (most are webapps) are available15:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> almost all of them have nothing to do with the actual web sites they're for15:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> no need to keep asking in here if app X is available15:39
ubptgbot<Mark Mullins> Cool thanks15:39
ubptgbot<zubayerkhan> Is there any way to customize Ubuntu touch before install in my phone?15:45
ubptgbot<dohbee> you can build your own images which are then not ubuntu touch15:46
ubptgbot<zubayerkhan> Ha ha. I don't want this. I want install it in a low quality phone for experiment. Can I?15:49
ubptgbot<dohbee> only if there is a port for the device. otherwise you'll have to first create a port15:49
ubptgbot<zubayerkhan> How? Any tutorial or link?15:50
ubptgbot<dohbee> @zubayerkhan, https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html15:51
ubptgbot<zubayerkhan> But my phone is not a supported device. Now?15:55
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> You'll need to follow the tutorial he linked. Your device will need to have an unlockable bootloader and a Lineage port15:55
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> And it's best if you have experience in porting LineageOS.15:55

ubptgbot<dohbee> @ogami itto, If this pans out (Google is almost certainly going to appeal the appeal) such that Google does lose, then it's going to be VERY bad for the rest of us too.16:09
ubptgbot<dohbee> But that probably belongs in OT, not here.16:09

ubptgbot<Jan> Hey there 😊 I am currently trying to install Ubuntu touch on my meizu mx4 using the UBports installer. But I am always getting Protocol errors during the flash process πŸ˜” has anybody tried this before and had similar errors?17:32
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Jan, mx4 has not great usb, and often exhibits similar problems. can try shorter/other cables or usb ports on the PC maybe17:53
ubptgbot<Jan> @dohbee, Will try it17:54
ubptgbot<TimDev> Heya, my Nexus 5 on Xenial is constantly loosing cellular data, is there any workaround/command I can use to bring it back? :D18:26
ubptgbot<dohbee> @TimDev, d821?18:30
ubptgbot<TimDev> yep18:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> you can try maybe grabbing the last stock android image from google for it, and flashing ONLY the radio; some people have reported improvements there18:35
ubptgbot<TimDev> Hmm okay18:38
ubptgbot<TimDev> So is this a known issue with this model?18:41
ubptgbot<Lakotaubp> @TimDev, Flohack did a "how toβ€œ its in the forum support section and it works18:41

ubptgbot<Jan> Now I am a bit further using an old laptop and a usb 2.0 hub.19:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/4xHl0Drl.webp19:03
ubptgbot<Jan> Any suggestion how to get over this step? 🧐19:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> patience i guess19:05
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Well it's got an error19:05
ubptgbot<dohbee> is it an externally powered hub?19:05
ubptgbot<Lakotaubp> @TimDev, Its dated 22 Dec how to update baseband firmware19:05
ubptgbot<Jan> @dohbee, No, but the cable is very short19:06
ubptgbot<dohbee> does your machine have a "charging" USB port (usually would be red or yellow color)?19:09
ubptgbot<dohbee> if so, maybe try on it instead, as it can provide more power19:09
ubptgbot<Jan> Unfortunately not πŸ˜’ maybe I should by a powered hub tomorrow..19:10
ubptgbot<dohbee> only if you can get one really cheap i gues19:23
ubptgbot<dohbee> guess19:23
ubptgbot<Jan> I think there is on at my workplace, but it’s usb 3.0 I guess. At least it’s a try. Thank u for your help 😊19:25
ubptgbot<dohbee> ah ok19:25
ubptgbot<gsilvapt> @dohbee, Actually these can be worse unless a good quality one and those are relatively expensive 😜20:01
