ubptgbot<amolith> @Pietia, Welcome, Pietia! Check out ubports.com/telegram-welcome to get you started! If you have any questions, feel free to ask here or in the Welcome & Install room! 🙂01:14
ubptgbot<Pietia> Thanks guys! :) Hi, I check it out while looking for an alternative to test in my old Samsung Galaxy Ace 2, but I think it wouldn't work out, right? ;)02:07
ubptgbot<amolith> @Pietia, Unfortunately not. You could attempt to port UT to it if you have the time an an extra phone, however! 🙂02:40

ubptgbot<Finn Riordan> Question: I have an old LG K7. Would I be able to install Ubuntu touch?03:34
ubptgbot<S31BZ> @Finn Riordan, I don't believe so. Check the supported devices on the site. You could start porting it yourself if you desired.04:01
ubptgbot<SRIDHARDV> Is there any official porting links or videos available? For snapdragon chips04:16
ubptgbotCédric was added by: Cédric06:08
ubptgbot<Cédric> hello dudes, … i plan to buy a used phone and install ubport. do you recommend one of the supported devices most? how about battery life in general? will the experience be as smooth as using android or will it be a pain in the a**?06:12
ubptgbot<samzn> @Cédric, Probably nexus 5 is your best choice if you want everything it can offer06:16
ubptgbot<Cédric> @samzn, is the hardware still powerfull enough? i dont need to play games and stuff, just call people and use the browser...06:18
ubptgbot<samzn> Ya, I use it daily06:19
ubptgbot<samzn> The sd800’s still a beast06:19
ubptgbot<advocatux> @SRIDHARDV, https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html06:25
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Cédric, This is the list of supported devices http://ubuntu-touch.io/devices Depending on your budget and which one it's easier to buy for you, the answer may be different06:29
ubptgbot<advocatux> My daily driver is a Nexus 5, stable channel06:29
ubptgbot<Cédric> @samzn, i will buy it too06:38
ubptgbot<Cédric> thx dudes06:38

ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Can you make Ubuntu touch os for huawei media pad t1 8.0(S8-701u)?07:41
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> I love ubuntu07:41
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Sandeepa Dilshan, Hi Sandeepa, welcome. See http://ubports.com/telegram-welcome to get you started07:41
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Sandeepa Dilshan, This is the list of supported devices http://ubuntu-touch.io/devices07:41
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Plz make that touch Ubuntu os07:42
ubptgbot<advocatux> It's not a question of willingness, porting is a complex task as you can see here https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html Ubports is a volunteer based project, not a company07:43
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Ooo thanx07:44
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> To what company , would I say it?07:44
ubptgbot<advocatux> There's no such company for now07:44
ubptgbot<advocatux> Canonical was "the" company, they abandoned the project, and now "we" are trying to keep the torch lit07:46
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Good07:47
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> @advocatux, And doing an excellent job keeping lit by the way! Thanks guys and gals?07:48
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Are you in other groups?07:48
ubptgbot<advocatux> Are you asking Ismail or me?07:49
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> You07:49
ubptgbot<advocatux> Sorry, I don't understand what you're asking exactly07:49
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> I mean what are the groups which I can learn linux07:50
ubptgbot<advocatux> This is OT in this group but... do you want to learn how to user Linux as a user, as an administrator, as an developer... ?07:52
ubptgbot<advocatux> [Edit] This is OT in this group but... do you want to learn how to user Linux as a user, as an administrator, as a developer... ?07:52
ubptgbot<advocatux> [Edit] This is OT in this group but... do you want to learn how to use Linux as a user, as an administrator, as a developer... ?07:53
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> As an administrator07:53
ubptgbot<advocatux> There are thousands of recourses in Internet for that. Look for "Linux System Administrator" using your favorite search engine ;)07:57
ubptgbot<advocatux> v.g. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SystemAdministration07:58
ubptgbot<Sandeepa Dilshan> Thanx07:59
ubptgbot<advocatux> You're welcome08:01

ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> is there any community build UT port for Xiomi Note 3 ?08:31
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Jishnurajm, Hi Jishnu, what's the codename for that device? hennessy? I don't think there's any community port for that yet08:35
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> @advocatux, hennessy or kenzo I,m not sure08:38
ubptgbot<advocatux> I've searched it for you. Note 3 is hennessy, and Note 3 Pro is kenzo :)08:39
ubptgbot<jeabalos> It's actually "jason"08:44
ubptgbot<jeabalos> here's the reference http://en.miui.com/thread-252582-1-1.html08:44
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Seems that Cancro is the only one receiving attention08:44
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> @advocatux, mm08:46
ubptgbot<advocatux> @jeabalos, lol I always consult that list but this time I looked the info here http://en.miui.com/thread-225849-1-1.html My bad. Sorry!08:47
ubptgbot<advocatux> Anyway, no community port for any of them08:47
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> oh my bad08:48
ubptgbot<jeabalos> ow, that's sad. My test device is also Xiaomi (Mi 5).08:48
ubptgbot<advocatux> There's people working in porting to Halium these https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+xiaomi08:48
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> here most of them are using MI, but no ports are available08:49
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @advocatux, Halium? Is it not Helium?08:50
ubptgbot<advocatux> Nope08:50
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @advocatux, ok08:50
ubptgbot<advocatux> Anyway, I'm seeing the source of confussion in your list. There are Mi devices and Redmi devices08:51
ubptgbot<advocatux> hennessy                             | Redmi Note 3 (MTK)08:51
ubptgbot<advocatux> | jason                                    |Mi Note 308:51
ubptgbot<jeabalos> Maybe we just need to buy the supported devices haha.08:52
ubptgbot<advocatux> Halium is a word play with HAL08:52
ubptgbot<JasonMD> I'm sorry I can't do that...08:52
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @advocatux, Redmi is different from Mi. Redmi are cheaper versions of xiaomi devices.08:53
ubptgbot<advocatux> @JasonMD, 😂08:53
ubptgbot<JasonMD> Everyone knows why he was called right?08:54
ubptgbot<JasonMD> HAL08:54
ubptgbot<advocatux> @jeabalos, but @Jishnurajm asked for "Xiomi Note 3". Is that a Mi or a Redmi phone?08:55
ubptgbot<jeabalos> Mi08:55
ubptgbot<advocatux> Ok, thank you08:55
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> XIOMI REDMI NOTE 308:55
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @Jishnurajm, example from samsung:  … 👍08:56
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> 😁08:56
ubptgbot<jeabalos> example from samsung to xaiomi:  … Galaxy devices = Xiaomi, and Galaxy Duos = Xiaomi Redmi08:57
ubptgbot<advocatux> So it's a Redmi not a Mi phone? lol I need a break08:58
ubptgbot<jeabalos> They are just different versions of device from Xiaomi haha08:58
ubptgbot<JasonMD> As Je said, Mi = Premium Redmi = Cheaper08:59
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @JasonMD, indeed!08:59
ubptgbot<JasonMD> The Redmi's are very competitively priced09:00
ubptgbot<advocatux> @JasonMD, Fine but what is that device codename then?09:00
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @advocatux, for Mi Note 3? its jason.09:01
ubptgbot<advocatux> yeah and for Redmi Note 3 is hennessy09:01
ubptgbot<jeabalos> (Photo, 349x30) https://irc.ubports.com/8C47vGGW.png09:01
ubptgbot<JasonMD> Are you sure? Both a Mi and a Redmi version exist...09:01
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @advocatux, correct!09:01
ubptgbot<jeabalos> yes09:01
ubptgbot<jeabalos> @JasonMD, yes09:02
ubptgbot<JasonMD> ok there we go, confusing naming huh?09:02
ubptgbot<jeabalos> hahaha09:02
ubptgbot<advocatux> Fwd from Jishnurajm: XIOMI REDMI NOTE 309:02
ubptgbot<JasonMD> and they really churn them out too...09:03
ubptgbot<advocatux> I understand now why nobody is working on those devices 😂09:03
ubptgbot<JasonMD> They are constantly releasing new models09:04
ubptgbot<JasonMD> Mind you Song ans Samsung seem to do quite similar09:04
ubptgbot<JasonMD> Sony09:04
ubptgbot<Jishnurajm> @advocatux, 😅09:05
ubptgbot<jeabalos> very confusing haha09:07
ulrichardThis was asked probably before. Can I adjust the repository address somewhere from canonical to ubports. That way I hope to upgrade without reflashing my device and loose all my settings.09:18
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ulrichard, You can reflash without wiping the device and your data should be preserved, but you should back up just in case something goes awry09:22
ubptgbot<alan_griffiths> No, you have to reflash. But you don't need to lose your settings. Backup is a good precaution (but I didn't use mine).09:23
ulrichardOk, thanks. I will try it then...09:24
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> Has anyone tried UBports on any Huawei device?09:47
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> [Edit] Has anyone tried UBports on any Huawei device? … I want to try it on a Huawei P909:47
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki, It would have to be ported. Best to start by reading about the Halium project09:50
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> @Stereofont, Thanks @Stereofont09:52
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> @Stereofont, [Edit] Thanks09:52
ubptgbot<jeabalos> This? https://halium.org/09:53
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Yes, that09:53
ubptgbot<Ismail_ibn_Thomas_Al_Amreeki> Also, can I install and run Python 2/3 and Java on UBports phone?09:55
ubptgbot<alan_griffiths> Mostly yes. (It isn't a desktop, so there are limitations you'll need to work within/around.)10:02

ubptgbot<nanu_c> In 45 minutes we will have a talk on ubuntu touch in german in Vienna, maybe with a livestream17:13
ubptgbot<Cédric> @nanu_c, link please17:25

ubptgbot<Flohack> Livestream confirmed17:34
ubptgbot<Flohack> But it will be in German xD I assume.17:35
ubptgbot<Flohack> Or the audience demands English17:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> well, "in german in Vienna" presumably means the language, since Vienna is still in Austria AFAIK :)17:38
ubptgbot<Sconio> Hi, is there a alternative to "LiveStream" that we can use on ubuntu touch, for example, the next month of events will take place in paris.17:59
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Next cloud spreed??18:01
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Or you mean something similar to twitch?18:02
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> The UBports QA is made using google 😹18:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> you mean the recording end being a phone with UT?18:02
ubptgbot<Sconio> Can be used on ubuntu touch18:02
ubptgbot<Sconio> Yes18:03
ubptgbot<nanu_c> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j7e5uXko6s18:03
ubptgbot<Sconio> ??18:05
ubptgbot<dohbee> i don't think there is anything suitable on UT for that18:06
ubptgbot<Sconio> Yes I see, but that kind of service would be really useful to broadcast events. Can beings tell Framasoft...18:09
ubptgbot<dohbee> well, phones are not a good way to broadcast events like that, i think18:10
ubptgbot<Sconio> Ok, wait for a improvement in the software can beings ?18:12
ubptgbot<Pietia> Hey how to watch this talk?..18:14
ubptgbot<Pietia> Ah ok I have it sry18:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Sconio, it's not a software problem, really. just that phones aren't good devices for this18:15

ubptgbot<dohbee> @Pietia, nein :)19:04
ubptgbot<Cédric> i want a librem 5 phone with ubuntu touch19:18
ubptgbot<K31j0> I want a librem 5 with gentoo19:20
ubptgbot<K31j0> That'd be a memephone19:21
ubptgbot<dohbee> just install debian/hurd on it19:24
ubptgbot<K31j0> @dohbee, Is that hurd port still around?19:25
ubptgbot<dohbee> how would i know19:25
ubptgbot<K31j0> Wondering if it works outside a VM, never seen that19:27
ubptgbot<K31j0> How old is UT's glibc?19:28
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @K31j0, pessimist19:29
ubptgbot<vanyasem> ask how new it is19:29
ubptgbot<NotKit> @K31j0, while you wait for Librem, check Gentoo/bionic :)19:30
ubptgbot<K31j0> @NotKit, You mean gentoo prefixes for android?19:30
ubptgbot<K31j0> @vanyasem, Then how new it is19:30
ubptgbot<K31j0> Sailfish has veeery old glibc19:31
ubptgbot<K31j0> probably not to break compatibility with hybris19:31
ubptgbot<vanyasem> my ut phone is uncharged, can't really help you19:31
ubptgbot<K31j0> kay19:32
ubptgbot<NotKit> @K31j0, nah, updaing glibc doesn't break hybris much (it works on Arch/Debian testing)19:32
ubptgbot<NotKit> @K31j0 https://elinux.org/images/2/25/2013_elc_gentoo_bionic.pdf19:32
ubptgbot<K31j0> @NotKit, Kay, then jolla is just lazy19:35
ubptgbot<NotKit> it will break support for devices with older kernel though, such as Droid 419:35
ubptgbot<K31j0> So anything that is built with google's gcc older than 4.9 is a no-go, I guess19:36
ubptgbot<NotKit> anything with kernel older than 3.2 actually19:36
ubptgbot<K31j0> Our EOL kernels aren't the best thing in the world too :P19:37
ubptgbot<dohbee> the glibc in UT is not updated from whatever is in the same upstream ubuntu version19:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> so whatever was in 15.04 is what's in the stable image, and whatever's in 16.04 is in xenial, and so on19:42
ubptgbot<samzn> @LennyPenny, nah19:57
ubptgbot<dohbee> wtf, was that like a month ago?20:12
