ubptgbot<judicialdomicide> Hi, I’m new to ubports and have eventually installed emacs24.5+1-6ubuntu1.1 according to libertine gui. How do I run it. I tried following the manual and creating a .bash_aliases file in home with shortcuts how do I actually launch the emacs24 gui.03:38
ubptgbot<judicialdomicide> Ignore the above I’ve found β€œDesktop Apps” panel. Lol πŸ˜‚04:23

ubptgbot<Kumar Abhishek> Hi all.. … Is there any specific reason for PIN to be just 4 digits long..?05:49
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Kumar Abhishek [Hi all.. … Is there any specific reason for PIN to be just 4 digits long..?], The alternative is to use a `Passphrase` instead of a `4-digit passcode`.05:51
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> You can do that from `Lock security` in the System Settings.05:52
ubptgbot<Kumar Abhishek> Yup, I saw that. … I was just curious about the PIN though...05:53
ubptgbot<Kumar Abhishek> @imraniqbal [You can do that from Lock security in the System Settings.], πŸ™ πŸ‘πŸ˜Š05:53
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Kumar Abhishek [Yup, I saw that. … I was just curious about the PIN though...], Not sure but you can simulate `Passphrase` to behave any way you like, so I suppose there's a solution for everyone's needs.05:58
ubptgbot<Kumar Abhishek> 😊05:58

ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Hi all, i was trying (unsuccessfully) to follow the directions to install UT. I tried joining the forum but it won't let me.06:34
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I usually select passphrase then make it a 4 digit pin, throws everyone off lol06:35
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> It hasn't sent me the email.06:35
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [Hi all, i was trying (unsuccessfully) to follow the directions to install UT. I …], You'll get a lot more help (eventually) in the Welcome group: https://t.me/WelcomePlus.06:35
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Graham Clark [Hi all, i was trying (unsuccessfully) to follow the directions to install UT. I …], Are you trying to install to a supported device?06:36
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> By eventually, I mean when the installation experts are around.06:36
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> nexus 506:36
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Ok, where are you having the issue?06:36
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> ok, cheers, i mean, i am trying to just let them know thtat their forum registration isn't working because it must be putting people off.06:37
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [ok, cheers, i mean, i am trying to just let them know thtat their forum registra …], Have you checked your spam folder?06:37
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I then tried to email them and I didn't understand what that was trying to get me to do06:37
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Even after joining, I've found certain messages have crept in there since.06:37
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> so eventually i had to download telegram which i didnt really want to do06:37
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I cant help with forum stuff, but I can try to help with install06:37
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> i appreciate that. Reckoned it might be  more usefull on a forum for others to see as well maybe?06:38
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> And, yes, I looked in spam.06:38
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I tried resending it half a dozen times then have left it for about 8-10 hours06:39
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> rebooted pc06:39
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> One thing about Telegram is that you'll get responses much quicker.  The community is pretty active around these rooms.06:39
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> ok, cool.06:39
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> And there's a wealth of information in the room histories, to help solve your problem.06:39
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> ah06:40
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> That's why the Welcome group is worth joining.  It's probably already answered there.06:40
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> And if you've got a Nexus 5, you'll get the solution.  It's one of the most popular devices.06:40
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Again what is your issue? I am pretty active, not as much as I used to be, but I still try to help people06:40
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I mean, my first question, is it kind of set up for noobs to do? Or is it not really for that yet?06:40
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I bought the nexus 5 because i was pretty keen to give it a go.06:41
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> The installer is pretty user friendly06:41
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I mean, if you are happy to help, i would appreciate it.06:41
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> So, what group am i in? It only gave me this one option06:41
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> This is supergroup, there's one for new comers and install issues06:42
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> This is https://t.me/ubports and the Welcome group is https://t.me/WelcomePlus.06:42
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I don't know what supergroup means06:43
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @imraniqbal [This is https://t.me/ubports and the Welcome group is https://t.me/WelcomePlus.], Thanks, I was just about to do that06:43
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> well apart from it must have awesome peoplle in it06:43
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> This supergroup is the main group for support.06:43
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Graham Clark [I don't know what supergroup means], Just the name, im in both06:43
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> ok, should i join the other one instead then?06:43
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> But there's a specific group for helping with installations.06:43
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> You can join as many as you want actually06:44
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Just click that link and you'll join it.  You'll still be here as well.06:44
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Tygerpro [Thanks, I was just about to do that], You're welcome.06:44
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Is there a list of groups?06:45
ubptgbot<BaHKoTo> Hello, who is latest phone, which can install ubuntu touch ?07:04
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @BaHKoTo [Hello, who is latest phone, which can install ubuntu touch ?], See the conversation from here: https://t.me/ubports/220057.07:10
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Summary: Meizu Pro 5 (most powerful), Fairphone 2 (latest).07:11
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> These questions should be put in a FAQ on the site, they get asked enough07:13
ubptgbot<BaHKoTo> Thank You :)07:14
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> You're welcome.07:16

ubptgbot<Graham Clark> @imraniqbal [Summary: Meizu Pro 5 (most powerful), Fairphone 2 (latest).], Excellent, thanks for putting that up. I have written that down. Like the look of the fairphone. That is how I think.09:20
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [Excellent, thanks for putting that up. I have written that down. Like the look o …], Spend some time with your Nexus 5 first.  It's one of the best supported devices.09:21
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Exactly my plan.09:21
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> But thanks for backing it up. It helps.09:22
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I don't need any more anyway atm. It has twice the memory of my huawei and a better phone generally. It seems to pass benchmarks by almost double the score as well. AND I get to  put UT on it.09:23
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> :)09:23
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I am so pleased. I bought it in the hope it would work. Grand total of Β£35.09:23
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> Excellent, mine cost a bit more than that but I wanted a "brand new" device (one that hadn't been used before).09:25
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I hit really lucky. I had a search on and he said it hadn't been used. It has the plastic on it still. (or put back on) I saw it as soon as it came up and he accepted an offer. Is there a way to know if it has been used before?09:29
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> No idea, some people know how to refurbish so it becomes difficult to detect.  I'm sure there are tools out there that can tests the components.09:31
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Ha ha, I have 26GB storage free How nice is that?09:42
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> What are you used to seeing?09:46
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> 4gb09:51
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> and that is after deleting stuff09:51
ubptgbot<advocatux> Graham if you don't like Telegram, we're on Matrix too :) … FluffyChat is the perfect app to join that network btw09:52
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> has a 16gb storage09:52
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> i don't mind telegram, i just didn't have it. I don't use any of the others either.09:53
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> apparently you can tell if a phone has been used with imei info. I can't find it on mine though09:54
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [i don't mind telegram, i just didn't have it. I don't use any of the others eith …], If you want a Telegram app on the phone, then TELEports is the latest and greatest.  You can get it from the OpenStore.09:56
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> ok, so, open store is like the play store?09:58
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> but not as safe as using, say software manager in Mint?09:58
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [ok, so, open store is like the play store?], OpenStore is the app store for Ubuntu Touch.10:06
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @Graham Clark [but not as safe as using, say software manager in Mint?], Safe in what respect?10:06
ubptgbot<advocatux> Graham OpenStore is pretty safe, and the contained app model also helps to increase that. … Any app must follow this https://open-store.io/submit before being submitted to the OpenStore10:08
ubptgbot<advocatux> You can find more info at https://open-store.io/about10:10

ubptgbot<Graham Clark> One little aesthetic thing. I have always set my phone so when it sits there it is just as plain a screen as possible. I ssem only able to have my apps showing.11:09

ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Graham Clark [One little aesthetic thing. I have always set my phone so when it sits there it …], There is a way to change that, you can make all the icons disappear and the screen act more like a desktop, however it is not reccomended for a screen that is setup like the N5's12:27
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Graham Clark [One little aesthetic thing. I have always set my phone so when it sits there it …], when the new version of unity8 makes it into the image, you'll be able to do that, sort of. for now it's not at feature/stability parity, so it's only available in edge12:53
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @jimmy_UbunTouch [launcher Modular updated in the open-store!], Excellent, I've tried this as my main launcher again and don't appear to be having performance issues (high CPU usage, etc.) β€” was this fixed?12:58

ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Is it possible to take a screenshot yet?13:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Graham Clark [Is it possible to take a screenshot yet?], press both volume buttons simultaneously13:07
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @jimmy_UbunTouch [Yes 😊], Thanks, I'm enjoying the new launcher!  Where are bugs reported?13:12
ubptgbot<jimmy_UbunTouch> @imraniqbal [Thanks, I'm enjoying the new launcher!  Where are bugs reported?], https://framagit.org/ubuntouch-fr-dev/launcher-modular/issues thanks13:20
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @jimmy_UbunTouch [https://framagit.org/ubuntouch-fr-dev/launcher-modular/issues thanks], Great, got an issue with the bottom bar context menu when trying to open it in landscape orientation.  Then breaks it for portrait as well.  Do you know about this?13:22
ubptgbot<jimmy_UbunTouch> Oh no I did not see can you note it in the git? thank you13:23
ubptgbot<imraniqbal> @jimmy_UbunTouch [Oh no I did not see can you note it in the git? thank you], Yes, I'll try to find a bit of time to do it.  Thanks.13:23
ubptgbot<jimmy_UbunTouch> @imraniqbal [Yes, I'll try to find a bit of time to do it.  Thanks.], Thanks you13:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> too bad gitlab doesn't have federation13:25
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> @Graham Clark [apparently you can tell if a phone has been used with imei info. I can't find it …], It's on a sticker inside the case, but you can view it in About Phone instead.14:19
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @jimmy_UbunTouch [Yes 😊], your launcher is truly excellent - the only thing keeping me replacing the usual App Scope with it is the lack of support for Libertine desktop apps. That - and I would love an option to have the Favorite apps be displayed with multiple rows instead of the scrolling single row that is there now.  Thank you fo14:30
ubptgbotr all your work making the Launcher Modular!14:30

ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Has everyone with any BQ device on devel updated to today's image?15:51
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I hear it's got candy15:51
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Or, at least camera fixes for real this time15:51
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I would tell you if thats true or not except I lack a BQ lol17:08
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> But I like the idea of a OTA having candy17:08

ubptgbot<Tygerpro> If your in the US its a high probability, my Note 8 is a 950U19:46
ubptgbot<КАКАРОВ> any  work on TELEport or telegram voice call ???20:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> there is lots of work on teleports20:11
ubptgbot<КАКАРОВ> πŸ‘20:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> voice call is probably a decent way off from being implemented though, i guess20:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> though i think voice will work in webtelegram for now20:16
ubptgbot<binhead> @Tygerpro [If your in the US its a high probability, my Note 8 is a 950U], Uk20:29
