ubptgbot<BlueKenny> @ignorare, Me too07:22
ubptgbot<advocatux> @BlueKenny, A lot of people are using NextCloud here, there's even a group https://t.me/UBports_Cloudsters07:25
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @ignorare, i wrote an article about nextcloud for ubports07:26
ubptgbot<vanyasem> i use it07:26
ubptgbot<advocatux> https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/secure-cloud-storage-14607:26
ubptgbot<Christopher> hey everyone I have a nexus 4 with the old ubuntu touch from canonical and am disk space full messages07:26
ubptgbot<Christopher> in the storage utility it just shows the space occupied by "Other files"07:27
ubptgbot<Christopher> would someone know how to find and get rid of the excessively large file on the phone?07:27
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Christopher, My advice is to make a backup of the files you want to keep, and install UBports :) … Anyway, the quickest way to get an idea of what are those large files, is running somethin like `find ~ -size +3M` in your terminal (you cam change that number for other sizes). If you want a more detailed output, there are a07:39
ubptgbotlot of tutorials in internet. Search for something like "find large files on linux"07:39
ubptgbot<Christopher> it looks like the /home/phablet/.cache directory is 6.1G...07:46
ubptgbot<Christopher> lots of log files inside07:46
ubptgbot<Christopher> I wonder if its safe to just rm *log07:46
ubptgbot<advocatux> You can delete everything in `~ .cache` No problem at allo. It's a good idea to reboot the phone after doing it07:47
ubptgbot<advocatux> [Edit] You can delete everything in `~ .cache` No problem at all. It's a good idea to reboot the phone after doing it07:48
ubptgbot<Christopher> thanks I deleted .cache and am restarting07:48
ubptgbot<Christopher> ubuntu tokuch on the nexus 4 —pretty good07:50
ubptgbot<Christopher> I'm surprised it didn't have more success07:50
ubptgbot<advocatux> Yeah, it was good in Canonical times, and it's way better in UBports times 👍07:51
ubptgbot<Christopher> I have ubports on a nexus 5 and do like it07:52
ubptgbot<advocatux> That's the right answer 😆07:52
ubptgbot<Christopher> I just use the nexus 4 as an led time display using the clock app07:53
ubptgbot<Christopher> so its not really important what it runs07:53
ubptgbot<Christopher> but the .cache will probably become full again in a year or two07:53
ubptgbot<Christopher> [Edit] I just use the nexus 4 as an led-style time display using the clock app07:55
ubptgbot<Christopher> if I _did_ install ubports on the nexus 4 would xenial be recommended?07:59
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Right now almost everything is working as expected in xenial for the Nexus. Except the camera08:12
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> So for that i recommend everyone to stay in vivid.08:13
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> In xenial08:13
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> With Nexus08:13
ubptgbot<Flohack> I must say I dont use camera that often :)08:13
ubptgbot<Flohack> People should not feel that this is a huge roadblock imho08:13
ubptgbot<K31j0> If you wanna shoot08:14
ubptgbot<K31j0> tons of pictures08:14
ubptgbot<K31j0> just get a DSLR08:14
ubptgbot<K31j0> At lest that's the best solution, I think08:14
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Flohack, I know. For me its not an issue neither. But another problem now is not having a native mail app. And well until 2 days ago there was the scroll momentum issue that was a big deal xD08:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> Yes good things take a while ;)08:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> Adn the camera freezing can be worked around by switching apps briefly. So its not a 100% blocker to try out 16.0408:16
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> True08:16
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> In the Nexus 4 is working now?08:17
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> I remember the reboot issue maybe?08:17
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Anyways. Xenial is very close for being fully stable for anyone to use as daily driver08:18
ubptgbot<BlueKenny> @advocatux, Its a problem :p i can`t open any apps with a click on the dash  but with the starter it works08:18

ubptgbot<Eranuzan> does anyone knows if ubports can run on  nexus 7 nakasig?09:14
ubptgbot<Sanjay_sakya> What about mi5 ?09:14
ubptgbot<BlueKenny> @Sanjay_sakya, Think no, I'm trying to make the Mi5s Plus port but I need to wait until mir-caf is working again09:22
ubptgbot<Pascal> Ubports 15.04 stable runs great on nexus 7 2013 wi-fi.09:22
ubptgbot<Sanjay_sakya> @BlueKenny, I just want it for mi5 standerd version.09:23
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> 25.0409:25
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> 15.04 is amazing09:25
ubptgbotTùng Phạm was added by: Tùng Phạm09:28
ubptgbot<Tùng Phạm> Hello everyone. Im new member. Nexus 5 and Meizu pro 5 which is better than for UT?09:31
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @advocatux, libertine containers are stored in cache right? … or I just have false memories LOL09:31
ubptgbot<BlueKenny> @Javacookies, Yes09:38
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Tùng Phạm, Hi, Meizu pro 5 is more complete hardware-wise, but I don't have one so I can't tell you any personal experience with that device. I have a Nexus5 and I'm happy with it though09:49
ubptgbot<advocatux> Tùng also take a look to https://ubports.com/telegram-welcome :)09:50
ubptgbot<Tùng Phạm> @advocatux, Thanks10:33

ubptgbot<Javacookies> are we going to use Yaru for Unity 8? 😁13:11
ubptgbotPin was added by: Pin13:18
ubptgbot<mateosalta> I think they wanted something for gnome that looked more like unity8's theme13:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> well the plan was always to switch to unity 8 anyway, so yeah, copying the theme somewhat fits in with that13:26
ubptgbot<notcake> Is it possible to make UBports for Huawei hi6250 chipset phones? … there are linux kernel sources available for it: https://github.com/HassanMirza01/android13:40
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @notcake, If it has a workikg lineage 14.1 tree, then yes13:41
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @notcake, [Edit] If it has a working lineage 14.1 tree, then yes13:41
ubptgbot<notcake> @vanyasem, it does13:41
ubptgbot<notcake> custom lineage tho13:41
ubptgbot<vanyasem> Then hop to @halium13:41
ubptgbot<vanyasem> And start by reading docs.halium.org13:41
ubptgbot<vanyasem> I'll be glad to assist you13:42
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @notcake, Doesn't matter that much13:42
ubptgbot<vanyasem> I once used a half broken unofficial tree, and it worked almost okay13:42
ubptgbot<notcake> @notcake, this kernel works for AOSP-based ROMS13:42
ubptgbot<notcake> lineage aswell13:42
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @vanyasem, I had to patch it a bit here and there, but still13:42
ubptgbot<notcake> @notcake, [Edit] this kernel works for AOSP-based ROMs13:42
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @notcake, You need device tree, vendor tree, and kernel tree13:43

ubptgbot<vanyasem> @Precious_priya, Wait wha..13:55
ubptgbot<vanyasem> We don't support any xiaomi phones atm13:55
ubptgbot<Precious_priya> @vanyasem, Hmm ok thank you13:59
ubptgbot<VeryOriginalUsername> @Precious_priya, Keep an eye on the project though, maybe one day 😉14:00
ubptgbot<Precious_priya> @VeryOriginalUsername, Sure hope so😞14:01
ubptgbot<vanyasem> there are some on-going ports14:01
ubptgbot<vanyasem> if you are familiar with kernel building, you could to try to port it yourself14:01
ubptgbot<Precious_priya> @vanyasem, Yes I'm14:01
ubptgbot<vanyasem> Fwd from vanyasem: If it has a working lineage 14.1 tree, then yes14:02
ubptgbot<vanyasem> Fwd from vanyasem: Then hop to @halium14:02

ubptgbot<vanyasem> Fwd from vanyasem: I'll be glad to assist you14:02
ubptgbot<Precious_priya> @vanyasem, How to know14:03
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @Precious_priya, well find a tree on xda?14:03
ubptgbot<Precious_priya> @vanyasem, Oh ok14:03
ubptgbot<mateosalta> this looks promising: http://doc.qt.io/QtWebBrowser/ qt has a mobile webengine browser14:05
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @mateosalta, it was feature 2 or 3 Q/As ago14:05
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @mateosalta, [Edit] it was featured 2 or 3 Q/As ago ;)14:05
ubptgbot<mateosalta> (Photo, 1080x1920) https://irc.ubports.com/48PljGbS.png14:06
ubptgbot<mateosalta> this?14:06
ubptgbot<vanyasem> yes14:06
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @vanyasem, which basically means "we already know and it's on the roadmap"14:06
ubptgbot<mateosalta> that would be cool, browser-ng needed a lot of work, might be easier to port a browser with many of those things working allready14:08
ubptgbot<dohbee> there's a lot more to it than just replacing the "default browser app"14:10
ubptgbot<dohbee> and afaik "QtWebBrowser" is just a demo app of QtWebEngine, not a full web browser app option14:12
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @dohbee, correct14:12
ubptgbot<vanyasem> which is why QtWebEngine will be intergrated into current browser GUI14:12
ubptgbot<vanyasem> replacing Oxide14:12
ubptgbot<mateosalta> yep, things like sharing, downloading14:12
ubptgbot<mateosalta> might be fun to play with the demo ui see if I can fix fullscreen from what they have14:22
ubptgbot<Melodia> hi, what the best devices to run UT flawlessly ? i want to buy nexus 5.. and looking for alternate device before buy it14:24
ubptgbot<notcake> @Precious_priya, wow cool14:24
ubptgbot<vanyasem> @notcake, plz add https to your website14:24
ubptgbot<vanyasem> show some self-respect, letsencrypt is not that hard to setup14:25
ubptgbot<vanyasem> (but well that's OT14:25
ubptgbot<vanyasem> [Edit] (but well that's OT: @ubports_ot_14:25
ubptgbot<vanyasem> [Edit] (but well that's OT: @ubports_ot)14:25
ubptgbot<notcake> @vanyasem, I use free hosting tho14:25
ubptgbot<notcake> it's not like I have something sensitive to me in it14:26
ubptgbot<notcake> or something else rather than HTML assets and a page14:26
ubptgbot<notcake> [Edit] or something else rather than HTML assets and index page14:26
ubptgbot<samzn> @Melodia, Yep, that's the one to get15:12
ubptgbot<Photojoe4> @Melodia, I'm using a Nexus 5 with 16.04rc and it's really working well. Phone calls, texts, navigation, browser all working. Battery life isn't stellar (as I understand, this was the case when it first came out, so not an issue with UT), but the wireless charging makes up for it.15:32
ubptgbotBjDTFNsQTYEs3 was added by: BjDTFNsQTYEs315:58
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> So my Microsoft wireless adapter just arrived. Time to see if my nexus5 can cast to it16:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> @AlexanderPlaza, i wouldn't get my hopes too high there :)16:40
ubptgbot<dohbee> seems miracast doesn't work on android for n5 either16:40
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @dohbee, >.> really...16:41
ubptgbot<dohbee> @AlexanderPlaza, according to a quick search on ddg anyway16:42
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> Mm well using the commandline, I can see that it discovers it so that's a good step16:46
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> I am using windows to see if it has newer firmware for the receiver.16:46
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I think it does work on android....haven't made it work on UT though17:00
ubptgbot<dohbee> on nexus 5?17:03
ubptgbot<Javacookies> yeah I have one but I'm not 100% sure.....that's what I remember17:08
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @dohbee, https://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/accessories/miracast-t2510804 … Yeah seems like it does work.17:08
ubptgbot<Pin> Where is the list of supported Android devices? Want to try ub17:08
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> (Using miracast17:08
ubptgbot<Javacookies> you know what...I'll try it....I'll boot android now 😁17:09
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @Pin, https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ … Here we go!17:10
ubptgbot<Pin> @AlexanderPlaza, My phone doesn't appear17:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> ports must be created for each device, yes17:12
ubptgbot<Pin> Anyone installed Ubuntu Touch on Xiaomi Mi A1?17:12
ubptgbot<dohbee> there are currently no working ports for xiaomi devices afaik, but some are being worked on. i don't recall if A1 is one of those though17:13
ubptgbot<Pin> @dohbee, 👍 I hope they work in the mi a1, it's like the nexus phones17:14
ubptgbot<Javacookies> it does work on android 👍17:20
ubptgbot<Javacookies> (Photo, 2560x1920) https://irc.ubports.com/OcdisOhF.png17:20
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @Javacookies, Awesome17:21
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> Well so far android and windows machines can work on it.17:21
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> I think it is just something on the todo list after 16.04 ships17:22
ubptgbot<dohbee> mmm, if it works on android, i would think it should work in UT then17:43
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @dohbee, Doesn't seem to work at the moment. But I'm sure it's just needs a bit of polish. ^_^ 😊18:03
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> So far I've noticed if I try to use the pause and play button on my Bluetooth keyboard while listening to music it freezes the UI of the phone.18:04
ubptgbot<Javacookies> is it on xenial? media controls don't work since the beginning of the world 😁18:11
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @Javacookies, It's on 16.04. The volume up and down work just fine. The mute button works for the icon to change but doesn't actually do anything. … The home, application switch and right click buttons on the keyboard work as well.18:12
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> It's actully surprising how much of it does work out of the box.18:13
ubptgbot<dohbee> mute sounds like a bug, probably related to the difference between 'mute' on normal PCs and 'silent mode' on phones/tablets18:14
ubptgbotdorianvogel was added by: dorianvogel19:05
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> is that.......casting?19:16
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @dohbee, Mmm interesting.  … Yes I've noticed volume levels don't follow a global value but as a per-application volume.  … Already have a few times where I put in earphones and when I think the volume low, put on the music app and have the volume quite loud.19:23

ubptgbot<Pin> Welcome @Timboland @dorianvogel21:26
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @AlexanderPlaza, well, audio really needs some love in the future21:37
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @AlexanderPlaza, Not quite per-app21:40
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Much like Android, there are separate volume levels per type of audio: media, notifications, alarms, phone...21:41
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But the UI to manage them all is awful21:41
ubptgbot<AlexanderPlaza> @UniversalSuperBox, Interesting. I thought Android had it similar to iOS in that standard.  … 1) Volume for notifications/alarms/system/etc. … 2) Global volume for media/music/apps/non-system21:51
ubptgbot<dohbee> @AlexanderPlaza, Well yes. You just have to change level in right context, but it's hard to do sometimes21:56
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> uVolman is the best bet now for that21:59
