The download of the Ubuntu Rom worked just fine as mentionned in your linked. But as a result, my tablet was completly black all the time. I had to reinstall the Android Rom (It worked).

[08:35] My OnePlus One phone worked just fine Lionelb [08:35] My tablet BQ Aquaris M10 FHD Android version did not work [08:36] I have been told that to make my tablet work with UBports Ubuntu installer, I have to get a BQ Aquaris M10 FHD Ubuntu Eddition... [08:38] Thank you for asking Lionelb ! [08:39] (So no it wasn't a Fairphone) [08:50] @JPMMPJ, Yes, you have to go via Canonical UT [08:50] Thank you for this confirmation Lionelb ! [08:51] I will do that ! Am gonna get the same tablet Canonical UT edition [08:52] (I already sent back my Android tablet version to the seller for a refund... They understood that I want the UT edition... Nice...) [08:53] @JPMMPJ, Was not really necessary but certainly that makes your task easier [09:46] @Stereofont, I must confess that I already spent a lot of time trying to make it work... So yes I admit I chose the easiest way ... ☺️ [10:25] Ghost was added by: Ghost [10:29] @Ghost, Hi Ghost, welcome.

[13:57] Thanks. @Bolly [13:57] :) [14:09] Trying to install Ubuntu Touch on my Nexus 5 with UBports installer on a Windows 10 Pro (latest update) computer. The software wouldn't recognize my Nexus 5 (in its bootloader), and I am stuck at the "Please reboot to bootloader" screen. I have installed the Universal ADB driver, but the software always prop with "ADB drivers needed [14:09] " on launch. Any advice?

I command you to invite this Bolly person in ;) === grumble is now known as Guest46633 === grumblr is now known as grumble [16:56] @Flohack, My SIII has a broken LCD. I've heard they're a PITA to fix. … Honestly, it might cost less to buy a used S III/Note II than a display. [17:05] <_Tag> hi dudes [17:06] <_Tag> I just bougt a nexus 5 from a friend in order to install ubports [17:06] <_Tag> right now i have installed 15.04 but I would love to try 16.04, but when I try to install it using the snap it just fails [17:07] <_Tag> adb push error, thats the error [17:07] <_Tag> I installed 15.04 using magic... whatever [17:08] <_Tag> a script, in a mint 17, but from home, in an ubuntu 17.10 i can't, due phablet-tools not available [17:08] at what screen is the phone when you get the error? [17:09] not sure why phablet-tools would be needed [17:10] <_Tag> mmm dohbee is me? [17:10] You're using magic-device-tool? [17:10] @_Tag, no i am not you :) [17:11] <_Tag> oh, man, i thought it was ubptgbot who whas answering [17:11] <_Tag> anyway, when it starts flashing, i get that error [17:11] MDT is dropping support for Ubuntu Touch. You might have better luck with the installer snap or appimage. http://ubuntu-touch.io/install [17:12] <_Tag> that's what i was trying, using that installer [17:12] <_Tag> the orange one with the cute robot [17:12] If nothing else, try running the appimage with sudo. Usually does the trick. [17:12] Udev rules and adb craziness. Still quite a few things to work out. [17:14] <_Tag> trying with sudo [17:14] <_Tag> it's pushing [17:14] <_Tag> and... done [17:14] <_Tag> man, this one was easy :) [17:15] Great! [17:15] <_Tag> let's see :) I really want to use it as my primary phone [17:15] <_Tag> even when i know perhaps going for 16.04 is not the best idea :) [17:15] Ideally we go without needing root access... Many distributions don't give us that luxury [17:16] It almost 90% is not... [17:16] <_Tag> do you mean i shout stick in 15? [17:16] btw, you could just run `system-image-cli -vvvv --switch ubports-touch/16.04/devel` directly on the phone over adb/ssh [17:17] if you want a daily phone with it, yes [17:17] <_Tag> ah [17:17] <_Tag> no prob, is there a way of using whatsapp? i tried LinqM but it failed [17:17] <_Tag> old protocol it said [17:17] <_Tag> I use both, telegram and whatsapp [17:18] not yet, as whatsapp is proprietary and not available for general linux usage. if/when anbox support gets enabled on that device, it should be usable in anbox though [17:19] <_Tag> well, it's ok :) [17:43] <_Tag> re [17:43] <_Tag> man, i'm trying to install now anbox [17:43] <_Tag> but i can't figure out the partition name [17:43] <_Tag> with bootimg it says "partition table doesn't exist" [17:44] anbox is not supported on nexus 5 yet [17:44] <_Tag> so I assume bootimg is not a valid partition table :) [17:44] <_Tag> aaaah [17:44] so you can't install it [17:44] <_Tag> that's a good reason for not working [17:50] (Sticker, 512x468) https://irc.ubports.com/T1WZEE2T.webp [17:57] <_Tag> leaving [17:57] <_Tag> thank you very much :) [17:57] <_Tag> and cu soon [17:57] cheers [19:01] (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/js4WC00D.png [19:02] I missed this [19:02] Comfy [19:17] Looks cоmfy [19:19] @willy_rumster, I like your username [19:22] i was going to say the same thing. 2018 award for Most Funky TG Username goes to.... whatever this says [19:27] @PhoenixLandPirate, it's a https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combining_Diacritical_Marks … i glad to see your likes) [19:34] @willy_rumster, wow, they're cool! I think I'm going tho change my username soon... 😁 [19:40] CrayCrayCobra was added by: CrayCrayCobra [19:40] Hello, [19:42] Hello, … I try to install Ubutu touch on a Oneplus One and I get this message: [19:42] (Photo, 592x314) https://irc.ubports.com/CTPlTKC4.png [19:42] @CrayCrayCobra, Hi BEnjAMIN, check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome to get you started [19:44] Newcomers Room [19:44] there you might find help [19:46] Thanx [19:51] is there an iso for ubuntu touch on x86 yet? [19:52] I found some targz files but I cant boot into it. I've copied the files onto a drive and also tried rolling them into an iso and flashing to a USB that way [19:52] no, there's no iso for ubuntu with unity8 yet [19:53] the rootfs tarball is not a bootable system. it doesn't contain bootloader or kernel. [19:53] so there's no way I can get ubuntu touch on my x86 tablet? [19:54] no. you can install ubuntu 16.04, and then install the ubports unity8 on top of it [19:55] whats the package called? [19:56] and would I change to that like I would any other DE from the login screen? [19:56] it's not a package in ubuntu archives. you have to follow the "try ubports unity8 on ubuntu 16.04" instructions to install it [19:56] got you [19:56] yes, unity8 is just another shell [19:57] fair enough. Still itching to try it but I dont have a nexus device. The LG G2 is basically a nexus 5 on steroids so I'll give that a shot [19:58] lg g2? [19:58] it is not a currently supported device [20:01] all good [20:01] tricked the installer into doing a flash [20:01] I have another G2 if anything [20:03] Hi folks, I've just learned that other models have tethering enabled (i.e. "access point" option). But my N4 with 15.04 doesn't... Any reason for that? [20:03] it was disabled on mako explicitly, as it was causing some problems. nobody ever resolved the issues. i don't recall what the issues were specifically [20:04] as in it was disabled on mako explicitly, back in the canonical days [20:09] Oh... I always thought no UT had it [20:09] IS there any way to re-enable it? [20:10] find the code that disables it, and make a patch to change it [20:12] Thanks, will check [20:41] Is it hard to put Ubuntu touch on an unsupported device? [20:42] assuming all the underlying requirements are met, it's generally more tedious than difficult [20:45] Ah. There a list of these requirements? [20:45] i think the porting guide states all the requirements [20:45] (i do not recall the url for it, but it's somehere on ubports.com) [20:46] Got you.
