ubptgbot<Alex> Hi guys, I got a bit further with my galaxy s4 port but ALL the tests are doing a Segmentation Fault, I noticed the rootfs has a /lib directory but on my phone there's a very similar /system/lib directory with about the same libraries, do you think it could be due to that? Has anyone had absolutely ALL the tests crashing before?04:49
dhasenanYou may as well try symlinking /system/lib to /lib, then?04:52
ubptgbot<Alex> yeah I'll try to do that to see if it improves something04:54
ubptgbot<Alex> or the opposite04:54
ubptgbot<Alex> it's crashing very early in the program so for sure it's dynamic libraries04:54
ubptgbot<Alex> Actually it does not seem to change anything, maybe it's something else05:28
ubptgbot<Strangerer> Hi Bruce wayne05:39

ubptgbot<Speed'n'Roll> Is there a group of ubports in Spanish?05:49
ubptgbot<anhedon> https://t.me/UBPorts_ES05:52
ubptgbot<jonny> @Alex, Same on my Xperia L07:21
ubptgbot<Alex> ah really? strange07:21
ubptgbot<Alex> I don't have an OTG cable but maybe a mouse would work07:22
ubptgbot<Alex> since the switch off button works07:22
ubptgbot<jonny> But in my case even the screen goes blank. I only can use adb to use it.07:23
ubptgbot<Alex> ah no mine is a little bit better07:23
ubptgbot<Alex> I can see TWRP07:23
ubptgbot<Alex> with 50% cpu (so it's stuck in something I guess)07:23
ubptgbot<Alex> and the switch off button pressed once trigged the TWRP lock screen07:23
ubptgbot<jonny> Yeah, sounds much better 😉07:24
ubptgbot<Alex> so TWRP is kind of there :P07:24
ubptgbot<Alex> I've also tried very old versions of TWRP but it's the same so who knows why :P07:24
ubptgbot<jonny> What do you need TWRP for in this state of porting?07:32
ubptgbot<jonny> It is a Sony device, too? I think it is related to their way of providing the recovery.07:33
ubptgbot<jonny> How are you accessing it anyway? With hardware buttons?07:35
ubptgbot<Alex> it's a samsung07:38
ubptgbot<Alex> I actually don't need TWRP yes07:38
ubptgbot<Alex> for flashing I use heimdall and for the system.img, adb still works with TWRP07:38
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Alex, Please join @halium where all the porting happens09:01
ubptgbot<Alex> 👍09:02
ubptgbot<Flohack> Here is just common discussions, and we dont want to fill the history with too much technical stuff09:02
ubptgbot<Alex> make sense !09:09
ubptgbot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> @popescu_sorin, Only can say. AMAZING and GORGEOUS community! Unity (Touch+Desktop) and MIR still alive thanks to more community work together ever! :)10:01
ubptgbot<matv1> @Flohack hi I am trying to get a sense of the satus of telegram on 16.04. As I understood, there needs to be a built a specific 16.04 click right?10:26
ubptgbot<Flohack> @matv1, Yes its on Github in the releases10:27
ubptgbot<Flohack> you can download the click and manually install10:27
ubptgbot<matv1> mhm the brach you reffered to in https://github.com/ubports/telegram-app/issues/133 no longer exists10:27
ubptgbot<matv1> oh right so the xenial branch should work ?10:29
ubptgbot<matv1> ohw sorry I wasnt reading what you said. there is already click package available :)10:34
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> My Nexus 5 is getting a bit too sleepy lately ... when in standby (black screen) pressing the power button often has no effect, and I have to resort to rebooting (by pressing the power button long enough ... which not always works at first attempt). Anyone experienced the same issue. If not, do you think this is a hardware iss14:23
ubptgbotue or a software one? I tried troubleshooting a bit, and I seem to have noticed that without a SIM, and with WIFI, bluetooth and GPS disabled, this does not happen. Thanks for any advice!14:23
ubptgbot<G_Raffe> If I wouldn't read the last part, i would think of broken button14:24
ubptgbot<G_Raffe> Had my one broken, common issue on Nexus514:24
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> Thanks. Would that cause this random behaviour? Because when going into standby manually (pressing the power button), and pressing the power button soon enough afterwards, the system always awakes.14:28
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> It's only after a prolonged standby that the issue appears. Maybe even linked to notifications arriving meanwhile. I"m checking that now actually, having all notifications disabled.14:28
ubptgbotJjbrk was added by: Jjbrk15:03
ubptgbot<advocatux> Hi @E Speed'n'Roll & @Jjbrk Welcome! Check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome to get you up to speed15:06
ubptgbot<Speed'n'Roll> @anhedon, thanks!15:21
ubptgbot<advocatux> 👍15:23
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> Indeed, so far it seems to be correct: when notifications are switched off for all applications, waking up from sleep, even a long sleep, is instantaneous.16:54
ubptgbot<Javacookies> would it make sense if we have a "Power Hungry" mode? opposite of Power saving mode LOL17:06
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I just mean where apps don't pause when out of focus similar when desktop mode is enabled....it's just that sometimes I like loading a webapp while I check something in my other apps and I think my Nexus 5 can handle it anyway17:07
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Javacookies You can prevent app suspension with UT Tweak Tool17:21
ubptgbot<advocatux> but I don't know if that's what you're looking for17:22
ubptgbot<Jo_Led> Does anyone know: Is there a working terminal command in 15.04 UT to measure current battery drain/ Wattage?17:25
ubptgbot<Jo_Led> Also: I have a powerbank that outs 5V 1A and 5V 2A. When i use the phone to browse newspages (no videos) or write in Telegram, the battery % are still sloooooowly dropping when I have the 1A plugged, but does absolutely fine with the 2A. Any ideas? No way the tablet is eating a whole 5W, right? Please explain if someone knows somethi17:30
ubptgbotng I'm missing.17:30
ubptgbot<Jo_Led> *not phone, BQ M10FHD Tablet!17:31

ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> Nice bug squishing Mr. Grips18:15
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Hi all18:32
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> This is Infamous this side18:32
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I am interested in flashing Ubuntu touch on my OnePlus 218:33
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Now I know it's developing stage18:33
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> But hear me out18:33
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> I'm confused though because the closed and open issues look to be the same?18:33
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I've researched it on the bet and came to know about the development going from 201618:34
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Reading the comments shared by the developer shows hope but there is no result.18:35
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I wanna know why is it taking so much time?18:35
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Mean no disrespect but I'm eager to know what's delaying it .i.e. Ubuntu Touch for OnePlus 2.18:38
ubptgbot<Flohack> @InfamousJiraiya, Its lacking probably a developer that has time and knowledge to dive deeply into the Android container. Also I dont see any Halium port for this currently in the Github tracker. So maybe nobody is really working on this?18:43
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @Eds_Mat, I wish I could share the same for my OnePlus 2. *Crying Michael Jordan*18:45
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @Flohack, I will lay down now, trying not to cry but will cry a lot.18:46
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> (Sticker, 272x512) https://irc.ubports.com/8jFseQvC.webp18:46
ubptgbot<dohbee> you are welcome to work on a port yourself18:46
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I wish I could... *First world problem*18:47
ubptgbot<andre_buesgen> Does dekko2 use.cache for saving account information?18:47
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @dohbee, I have no experience or skill to work in this field.18:48
ubptgbot<Flohack> Then you need to find a dev that owns a OP2 and is motivated to help :)18:49
ubptgbot<dohbee> @andre_buesgen, i would expect accounts to be saved in .config and only data that can be deleted safely from the device to be in .cache18:49
ubptgbot<Flohack> I tried porting on 3 devices, failed on 2 and the third one is booting but has issues...18:49
ubptgbot<andre_buesgen> I just deleted.cache and just noticed that all my accounts are gone. I'm just trying to figure out why this happened.18:51
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @Flohack, Until that day, you keep up the good work.18:51
ubptgbot<Flohack> We will, mate, we will.18:52
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> does ubtouch can compile with editing repo and mtk prebuilt kernel?18:52
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Thank you Sire.18:52
ubptgbot<Tygerpro Tygerpro> If I had a OP2 I would, could use a break from my enfuriating Samsung device18:52
ubptgbot<Flohack> @kutlay1653, No sorry, kernel alone will be not enough. You need the device tree as well18:53
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @Tygerpro Tygerpro, Buy one18:53
ubptgbot<Tygerpro Tygerpro> Haha my WAF for that is 018:54
ubptgbot<Flohack> In general, MTK devices are bad porting targets, as they have a closed device tree18:54
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Flohack, well, and the kernel must be rebuilt18:54
ubptgbot<Flohack> Yes and this.18:54
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> @Flohack, Have device tree18:54
ubptgbot<Flohack> Which device you are talking about?18:54
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> We can build lineage os with prebuilt kernel18:54
ubptgbot<dohbee> lineage doesn't need to rebuild the kernel because it's still android18:54
ubptgbot<dohbee> we require some changes to kernel config for UT18:54
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> FYI: I've lineage os running on my OnePlus 218:55
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> General Mobile etab518:55
ubptgbot<Flohack> yes thats true. But kernel source is available most of the time. You know, they must make it open source because of GPLv318:55
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> https://github.com/kutlay1653/android_device_generalmobile_hulkbuster_3.1018:55
ubptgbot<Flohack> @InfamousJiraiya, Yes but this is only a good indicator, no guarantee for a good port18:55
ubptgbot<Flohack> @kutlay1653, Ok with a device tree and a Lineage repo your chances are better than nothing 😆 - Please join the @halium group for porting questions18:56
ubptgbot<Flohack> But see here: … Not Working: …     Camera …     FM Radio (So removed) …     Audio …     Tablet pen half works …     Bluetooth …     Microphone18:56
ubptgbot<Flohack> So even Lineage is not complete18:56
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> @Flohack, Fixed18:56
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> fixed in 3.4 kernel18:56
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> 3.10 still buggy xd18:57
ubptgbot<Flohack> humm.. yes as I said. You need to join @halium and create a unified hal for booting UT, PlasmaOS etc18:57
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> @Flohack, Thanks18:57
ubptgbot<Flohack> Please read http://docs.halium.org/18:57
ubptgbot<kutlay1653> @Flohack, Okay I'll do thanks for helping18:57
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> @Flohack, Then I will put my OnePlus to rest with dignity and buy an old Nokia instead.18:57
ubptgbot<Flohack> old Nokia? hummm ^^18:58
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Basic phone that is.18:58
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> That supports calling, texts & radio. That's all.18:59
ubptgbot<Flohack> Why you wanna stop using the OPO?18:59
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I don't wanna buy new Android phone19:00
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> Especially the one that have notch19:00
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> They are disgusting and ugly19:00
ubptgbot<Flohack> hehe19:00
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> @Jo_Led, Try the 'powerstat' command (I used 'powerstat -d 5'). According to powerstat my Nexus 5 is using (1.16 +/-   0.56) W with all services (Cellular data, Wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, notifications) disabled and without any unsuspendable apps.19:02
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I wanna stop using my phone because it's my first phone I bought with my money not that I didn't like my previous phones but this one is close to my heart.19:03
ubptgbot<InfamousJiraiya> I wanna keep it in running because I'm unemployed for past two months and got no money in case something happens to this one and I like Ubuntu, so I'm hopeful. Now i take my leave and not disturb you all anymore. … You all are wonderful.19:06

ubptgbot<advocatux> @Ellypsis, Hi again 😋19:14
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> Hey anyone tried using 16.04 on pro5 daily driver?19:35
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> Dont know of any tales about that.19:37
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Eranuzan, Please test it, since today phone calls should work. But for a daily it was not usable until now probably19:45
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> hmm ok i`ll test it tonight  or tomorrow (will also give me a chance to test the clock and camera apps)19:46
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Eranuzan, I merged a few translations but I am still behind so patience with this plz 😆19:51
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> no rush take your time :) i`m currently working on getting clickable working with kdevelop (if i`ll manage that i hope to do the same for qtcreator)19:53
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> all the latest merges are just back log that i polished alittle to make the code not suck so much :)19:54
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> BTW just a general hypothetical question... … ... … how open are we on adding a third-party BSD licensed JS script into the clock app? 😁19:59
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I'm not up-to-date, is that license compatible?20:04
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> If so, knock yourself out I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯20:04
ubptgbot<Jo_Led> @dad_and_alive, Thanks. Powerstat shows me always Watts 0,00E, whatever that's supposed to mean. Any ideas?20:10
ubptgbot<dohbee> i thought we wanted to make the clock (and other apps) faster20:17
ubptgbot<Eranuzan> @UniversalSuperBox, Yay! world clocks day/night theme is coming to the clock app :P20:18
ubptgbot<dad_and_alive> @Jo_Led, Sorry, not really. Have you tried running it unplugged?20:22

ubptgbot<Waldbursche> Is there a way to scaling the calendarview? I would to show the whole weekview on the screen without scrolling.21:10
ubptgbotNic Wow was added by: Nic Wow21:11
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Howdy21:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Waldbursche, i don't think you can zoom, no21:12
ubptgbot<dohbee> i guess you're asking about calendar on tablet in landscape mode?21:12
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> @dohbee, Okay, i think also... unfortunately21:13
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> @dohbee, I asking about for Tablet and phone for both modes21:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> well in landscape it makes sense. not so much in portrait, since it'd be a single day view really21:15
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> In portrait it could be nice the whole day is seen on the screen from morning to evening without scrolling21:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> sure21:17
ubptgbot<dohbee> i thought you meant horizontal scrolling, given you were talking about week view21:18
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> The monthly view is not very helpfull with the little dots for dates21:18
ubptgbot<dohbee> well you can only fit so much information in a tiny little square21:19
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> colored squares are better then dots in my opinion21:20
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Where’s the Github link for the OS?21:21
ubptgbot<dohbee> https://github.com/ubports21:22
ubptgbot<dohbee> but that of course doesn't include all the stuff from upstream Ubuntu/Debian,or android bits21:22
ubptgbot<amolith> @Nic Wow, https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch21:23
ubptgbot<amolith> Or Rodney's. I didn't see it lol21:23
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Just out of curiosity is Ubuntu touch a reasonable OS for everyday users?21:28
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Or would you consider it to be?21:28
ubptgbot<dohbee> it depends on what one needs, i presume you're asking about running it on one of the supported devices?21:29
ubptgbot<dohbee> if you need working push notifications for most services, or apps for certain services, no, it's not a good option yet.21:30
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> I’m just looking for more control over my device. Apple sucks for this and Android tracks everything.21:31
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Wow, lost of issues: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue21:31
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Idk about notifications.21:31
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> For all I care email notifications would work.21:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> well, there are probably far less "issues" open in UT than there are in android or ios, in terms of bug trackers21:32
ubptgbot<dohbee> but that's not a useful metric21:32
ubptgbot<TronFortyTwo> @Nic Wow, E-mail notification work21:33
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Can you run it on a computer? Like from a USB or something?21:33
ubptgbot<dohbee> no21:33
ubptgbot<dohbee> not yet, and the experience on a PC is a bit different than on a phone21:33
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Nic Wow, 15.04 is good enough to use in a supported device as a daily driver21:34
ubptgbot<dohbee> because not everything is convergent yet21:34
ubptgbot<dohbee> @advocatux, yep, if one's needs do not exceed the abilities of UT, indeed21:34
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> What are the major issues for the software rn?21:35
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Is it buggy?21:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> those are vague and subjective for the most part21:36
ubptgbot<dohbee> the biggest "issue" right now is that Ubuntu 15.04 is End of Life for a long time now21:37
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Is it possible to download to run the OS on a Nexus 7 tablet?21:46
ubptgbot<amolith> @Nic Wow, Check devices.ubuntu-touch.io for supported devices. If yours isn't listed you can try to port UT to it!21:55
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Thank You21:57
ubptgbot<Victor> @Nic Wow, I don't know if any of these videos work but I just searched "ubports nexus 7" on YouTube. There are some videos about it: … https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=ubports+nexus+722:00
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Nic Wow, You can try to install UT in a Nexus 7 but has to be the 2013 model. See https://forums.ubports.com/topic/44/installing-ubuntu-on-nexus-7-2013-deb-lte22:04

ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Where is the Ubuntu Touch code repository? It wasn’t in the GitHub link you sent.23:34
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Which one?23:34
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> The organization is github.com/ubports23:34
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> @dohbee sent me this23:34
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But there are still hundreds of projects involved in Ubuntu Touch23:34
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> https://github.com/ubports23:34
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Right23:34
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> So you don’t have the source code published somewhere?23:35
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Or they don’t23:35
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Uh23:36
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> That is the source code23:36
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Across several hundred repositories and also the Ubuntu repositories23:36
ubptgbot<Nic Wow> Ahh, ok23:36
ubptgbot<dohbee> And also the halium and Android repositories23:45
