ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Hello01:47
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> O have a Nokia Lumia 730.01:48
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> I have*01:48
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> WhatsApp Will work until next december01:49
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Vamos don't work anymore01:49
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Vamos*01:49
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Banks*01:49
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> It has a good hardware, I would like to use it with Ubuntu touch. Any Idea?01:50
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Please01:50
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Thanks01:51
ubptgbot<JasonMD> Don't think there is anybody porting for that device, sry01:51
ubptgbot<Braillynn> The thought of a Lumia 950XL running UT does sound really appealing.02:00
ubptgbot<Efcinfor> Thanks.02:08

ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I would attempt a port if I owned one, I dont though03:12

ubptgbot<RAOFest> Can you even unlock the bootloader of those?06:17
ubptgbot<RAOFest> My guess is that you'd have an absolutely terrible time trying to port to a (Windows Phone) Lumia device, possibly to the level of needing to reverse engineer the board layout.06:19
ubptgbot<RAOFest> At least with even the most hostile Android device you know that there's a build of Linux that'll boot it!06:20
ubptgbot<samzn> @RAOFest [My guess is that you'd have an absolutely terrible time trying to port to a (Win …], that's where you're wrong06:23
ubptgbot<RAOFest> That said, it's also possible that it'd be quite pleasant porting, once you unlocked the bootloader, as IIRC at least some generation of Windows Phone mandated a UEFI bootloader so the hardware would be actually software-discoverable.06:24
ubptgbot<samzn> Lumias are basically ARM pcs06:24
ubptgbot<samzn> I have a build of Nemo Mobile on this 950XL06:24
ubptgbot<RAOFest> @samzn [Lumias are basically ARM pcs], Is the baseband also available?06:25
ubptgbot<RAOFest> (ie: Is it a phone, rather than just an ARM PC 😈)06:25
ubptgbot<samzn> Yes, but currently not hooked up06:25
ubptgbot<samzn> On W10Pro you can make calls just fine already06:26
ubptgbot<samzn> [Edit] I have made a build of Nemo Mobile on this 950XL06:26
ubptgbot<RAOFest> The WP phones were lovely hardware. It's a bit of a pity MS abandoned it.06:28
ubptgbot<samzn> @Efcinfor [O have a Nokia Lumia 730.], Also see: Lumia930Pkg06:28
ubptgbot<samzn> @RAOFest [The WP phones were lovely hardware. It's a bit of a pity MS abandoned it.], Means I can get my hands on cheap hardware06:28
ubptgbot<RAOFest> (The software also started off being fairly similar to Ubuntu Touch, although to the extent that they made any updates to the SDK at all they generally went away from that over time)06:29
ubptgbot<samzn> @RAOFest [(The software also started off being fairly similar to Ubuntu Touch, although to …], "Convergence" works so good on W10Pro on a Lumia 😛06:29
ubptgbot<samzn> Main issue of booting Linux through GRUB on MSFT ARM devices is that the default UEFI doesn't map the correct memory areas Linux requires without some erratas06:32
ubptgbot<samzn> (This is still the case on 835+ based devices)06:35
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Again, if i had one, I would at least try to port it, dont need an android build to get UT working, just some drivers for basic things that make it usable06:41
ubptgbot<RedBlade4555> which sections need to be formatted as ext4 before installing ut09:43
ubptgbot<Kazord> @samzn [I have made a build of Nemo Mobile on this 950XL], What was working/not working? (any blog/post somewhere)?10:00
ubptgbot<Mikeee_128> Please add google pay aap in app store..12:18
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> @Mikeee_128 [Please add google pay aap in app store..], Did you make a Google pay app?12:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Mikeee_128 [Please add google pay aap in app store..], it will not be possible12:27
ubptgbot<dohbee> google pay is proprietary, doesn't have an open API, and the android app requires a verified android boot stack to function12:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> also, we can't do NFC currently from UT12:31

ubptgbot<mimecar> @Rootz [Port for moto g 2015?], That sticker should not be used13:01

ubptgbot<Rootz> @dohbee [https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/112 and please delete the pep …], thanks13:26
ubptgbot<samzn> @Kazord [What was working/not working? (any blog/post somewhere)?], Freedreno needs panel config, PCIe needs backporting (Already works on WoA), mostly everything else works as exposed by ACPI13:28
ubptgbot<sativista> Could you write a "how to" on any place? I could be on github, maybe!13:52
ubptgbot<sativista> [Edit] Could you write a "how to" on any place? Could be on github, maybe!13:54
ubptgbot<samzn> @sativista [Could you write a "how to" on any place? Could be on github, maybe!], I'm not too interested in getting Ubports on it after some recent engagement here but I'd be more than happy to lend a hand to anyone interested13:54
ubptgbotIhor Lupulyshen was added by: Ihor Lupulyshen14:26
ubptgbot<Nithin Padavu> Is there a way to add ctrl+ options to terminal other than the ones that exist14:38
ubptgbot<Nithin Padavu> Or get the ctrl key on the keyboard14:38
ubptgbot<Stefano0101> @Te-F [@Stefano0101 I really appreciate. Couple of day i want to install ubuntu on my p …], [Edit] Happy to help a newby to sort it out. It's community project and we help each other.14:40
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/terminal-chapter-4-12514:41
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> You can make more profiles!14:41
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @UniversalSuperBox [https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/terminal-chapter-4-125], When I asked about this, I was told to put my layouts under `~/.config/ubuntu-terminal-app/Layouts/`, which works fine.  The article mentions `~/.config/com.ubuntu.terminal/Layouts/`.  Which one is the correct one?15:59
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> The one that exists, probably16:00
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I didn't write the article16:01
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Which is the former.  The latter doesn't exist on my device.16:01
ubptgbot<RedBlade4555> Can anyone tell me which partitions of the phone need to be ext4 for Ubuntu touch16:15
ubptgbot<dohbee> @RedBlade4555 [Can anyone tell me which partitions of the phone need to be ext4 for Ubuntu touc …], have you asked in halium? also i'm pretty sure the porting docs are pretty clear about what should be in fstab, generally16:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> @imraniqbal [Which is the former.  The latter doesn't exist on my device.], is terminal installed as a click or a deb?16:39
ubptgbot<dohbee> though i guess it doesn't matter exactly since terminal is unconfined16:39
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @dohbee [is terminal installed as a click or a deb?], The default I believe.  I can't recall ever installing it via. deb.16:40
ubptgbot<dohbee> so maybe the dir changed for some reason when the newer version of terminal-app got shipped into UT, after the article was written16:40
ubptgbot<dohbee> @imraniqbal [The default I believe.  I can't recall ever installing it via. deb.], it's installed by default, so it could be a deb or a click16:40
ubptgbot<dohbee> (i wasn't sure how we were shipping it)16:41
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Can't see it via. `dpkg -l`.16:41
ubptgbot<dohbee> but seems like it's a click (at least on my n5 on edge)16:41
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Any idea who to talk to, to get the article updated?16:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> i mean it's a blog post from what, two years ago?16:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> oh, a little over a year ago16:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> so yeah, it was changed at some point; and blog posts are not a great place to keep documentation16:49
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @dohbee [so yeah, it was changed at some point; and blog posts are not a great place to k …], https://gitlab.com/ubports/apps/terminal-app/issues/7016:50
ubptgbot<dohbee> @imraniqbal [https://gitlab.com/ubports/apps/terminal-app/issues/70], no, it's not because of that. there was a commit when canonical still maintained it, which renamed stuff internally (as part of the preparations to build a phone and PC system based on snaps/unity8). however, it was a newer branch of code, which wasn't shipped on UT unti16:57
ubptgbotl after we switched to 16.04, which was after the aforementioned blog post16:57
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @dohbee [no, it's not because of that. there was a commit when canonical still maintained …], Is it worth getting the blog post updated in the meantime?  As a stop-gap until proper documentation is provided?17:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> i don't know. the post was correct at time of posting, and is still correct for anyone still running the 15.04 images (even though we don't support them)17:02
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> slowly comes in the room carrying github.com/ubports/docs.ubports.com17:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> it's a heavy box to carry, tbf17:07
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> Oo oh Bluetooth seems to work better for me on N518:59
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> anything have been improved on that topic ?19:00
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Placebo19:00
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> lol19:00
ubptgbot<dohbee> cosmic ray alignment19:00
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> :), thought it was the blueZ thing19:03
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> upgrade19:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> not yet19:03
ubptgbot<lduboeuf> anyway, happy it work again :)19:06
ubptgbot<dohbee> bluetooth won't work on my nexus 5 no matter what version of bluez :(19:40
ubptgbot<rubencarneiro> @dohbee [bluetooth won't work on my nexus 5 no matter what version of bluez :(], How so? It was working.19:59
ubptgbot<dohbee> @rubencarneiro [How so? It was working.], same reason wifi doesn't work. person who repaired my power button screwed up the wifi/bt connection20:00
ubptgbot<rubencarneiro> That an I.C module that controls both wifi and bluetooth20:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> yes20:02
ubptgbot<rubencarneiro> I repaired one once with a heat statition, isolate the board and gave some heat on the module.20:02
ubptgbotRey was added by: Rey20:15
ubptgbot<A C> Because there is no option to publish the UT iso image on the official ubports page21:35
ubptgbot<A C> It is possible to offer direct download of the UT operating system through the official UBports website21:42
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> To answer your question as written before, no, it cannot be offered as an ISO image for phones. Phones need a special image created for each handset.21:42
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Ubuntu with Unity8 offered as a download is a long-term goal, but we're not in a position to build that right now.21:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> As a remix21:43
ubptgbot<RedBlade4555> Hello again … I finally installed Ubuntu touch in the phone. … Look n feel is great … But it is not detecting WiFi or my Sim card. … Any advice22:21
ubptgbot<RedBlade4555> Redmi 3s prime by Xiomi … Codename: land22:22
ubptgbot<dohbee> @RedBlade4555 [Redmi 3s prime by Xiomi … Codename: land], https:/)t.me/ubports_porting22:27
ubptgbot<RedBlade4555> Thanks22:29
ubptgbot<Alexander Pankiv> Sorry for dumb question, but: which mobile phone is latest of those supported by Ubuntu mobile?22:37
ubptgbot<benklaasen> @Alexander Pankiv [Sorry for dumb question, but: which mobile phone is latest of those supported by …], Latest, or fastest?22:42
ubptgbot<Alexander Pankiv> Valid point indeed. Most powerful22:42
