 hmmm
 (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/UXr475Ai.png Tablet is up and running again, time to start the porting of it (doubt it will work, but who knows)
 @Tygerpro [<reply to media>], What tablet is this?
 Asus Transformer Prime, the keyboard comes off
 (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/AMB7fd2Q.png I miss doing this, website on one side, ssh session to compile on the other
 Hmm, getting errors with a repo sync, interesting
 I know that feel bro
 K that is just weird, I go to compile, with no modification to the source and get fails, added a -i to the end and its ... outputting the expected files?!?! Something isn't adding up
 ... and systemimage is compiling without the -i, am I being punked or something, this is weird
 oooh
 Ok, I got an expected result, it failed, but iirc using -i should -NOT- yield a file if the previous attempt failed
 I think I am goig to need to go with a 7.1 based build over the 5.1 that Im trying
 Ok, the code doesnt want to compile in vanilla form, that does not bode well for porting 🤔

 @MariartiPro [Good day. Please tell me how to install Ubuntu on Meizu M5s Android 6.0? …], You can't. The current supported devices list is https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ … You can try to port it if that model meets the minimum requirements though … http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html

 Thank. Here are the technical specifications of Meizu M 5s.
 You're welcome :) … Mediatek is usually a bad choice because the source tree isn't available btw
 @advocatux [You're welcome :) … Mediatek is usually a bad choice because the source tree isn't …], So are the Meizu M5s specifications suitable for installing Ubuntu?
 They don't look good to me but it'll be better to wait for an answer from anyone with real porting experience :)
 @advocatux [They don't look good to me but it'll be better to wait for an answer from anyone …], Thank you again) I hope there are people who have experience with such an installation of Ubuntu ..)
 👍
 Just wanted to say: awesome job! Can't wait to get my hands on a suported device...
 @Javacookies [I would be contacting you once I start my luck with my HTC 10 😉], Lol, Im a bit rusty as I havent done anything porting related in awhile due to life stuff, Im just now getting back to a place where I actually have time to do anything, I thought Id give my tablet a go at porting.  I have one last thing I wanna try for port
[11:50] <ubptgbot> ing my tablet before I give up on it
 Huawei unveils harmony os in open-source, will it help to port Ubuntu on Huawei/honor device running this os?
 Dunno, prob not homestly, but yojr welcome to go ahead and try
 is it basically AOSP fork?
 ok, it's not even Linux kernel based, so it won't help us
 It use Android drivers
 And is not a PC distro
 K thx
 https://www.xda-developers.com/harmony-os-huawei-announce/
 "Harmony OS will not allow for root access, which Huawei says is a security risk on Android and other Linux-based operating systems."
 That does not affect UT
 it kinda does in hypotethical case we wanted to port UT to Huawei devices, but it seems they are not putting that OS to phones yet
 @NotKit [it kinda does in hypotethical case we wanted to port UT to Huawei devices, but i …], i guess not, since we don't need root in the existing android install
 not root, but the fact that it is not Linux kernel based
 i don't think that matters. it not having a linux kernel doesn't mean a linux kernel won't run on it
 but more likely, they won't allow unlocking bootloader
 which does matter
 that means we can't rely on hybris and this
 sure, but if bootloader could be unlocked and mainline drivers existed, they could be used
 but i wouldn't worry about it anyway, because huawei is not a nice company
[13:10] <ubptgbot> <Rishi Parmar> True that
 @Kazord [Huawei unveils harmony os in open-source, will it help to port Ubuntu on Huawei/ …], especially support for HTML5 and Linux apps ( I presume x11) is very interesting, maybe it'll be easier to port some apps to UT :-)
 @Stefano0101 [especially support for HTML5 and Linux apps ( I presume x11) is very interesting …], i highly doubt it will be helpful to us in any respect
 @dohbee [but i wouldn't worry about it anyway, because huawei is not a nice company], who told you that? US or UK government? How about Google and Apple and MIcrosoft, they are nice companies? There was a proposal from Huawei to completely get checked their software, source code, all of it is spite of ,, spying'' accusation and nobody
[13:17] <ubptgbot>  cared about it. SO?
 @dohbee [i highly doubt it will be helpful to us in any respect], but UT can run HTML5 apps, so this should be easier to repack it-port it, or no?
 @Stefano0101 [who told you that? US or UK government? How about Google and Apple and MIcrosoft …], stop being defensive of chinese corporations and stick on topic please.
 @dohbee [stop being defensive of chinese corporations and stick on topic please.], ok
 @Stefano0101 [especially support for HTML5 and Linux apps ( I presume x11) is very interesting …], Hum, maybe in term of porting app between both but even on that I have doubts
 @Stefano0101 [but UT can run HTML5 apps, so this should be easier to repack it-port it, or no?], chromeos, webos and firefox os were built entirely around html/js apps. but all those aren't ported to UT
 @dohbee [chromeos, webos and firefox os were built entirely around html/js apps. but all …], but it's still interesting to see something new out there, hope I'm not wrong and it won't turn to Android-ish with apps spying on users... but I suppose it's all about money.
 @Kazord [Hum, maybe in term of porting app between both but even on that I have doubts], it was just a thought.
 @Stefano0101 [but it's still interesting to see something new out there, hope I'm not wrong an …], Maybe not, but it appears it will be locked down. In any case it doesn't exist yet, so debating about it is kinda useless.

 moo
 baa
 Welcome to the farm
 ok
 can I install this on any device
 or is it only the 7 or whatever many listed devices
 Only the devices listed at devices.ubuntu-touch.io. To install on other devices, you'd need to create a port which requires a bit of knowledge on Android and C (or, alternatively, a will to learn)
 smh I am not a C guy but
 I dealt with C before
 I'll try a bit later maybe
 Well C, C++, it's just helpful to know how stuff gets stuck together
 And what it means when gcc yells at you
 ok I know how stuff gets stuck together
 also
 how does Touch perform on older devices
 point is I am interested into running this on my older devices to make any useful usage of them
 If it shipped with Android 5.1 or 7.1 you're good
 If not you're not
 ok i'm not then
 (some restrictions apply)
 or well, if there is a lineageos 14 port for it, you should be ok, too, assuming it originally shipped with at least android 4.2, i think
 there is not
 We don't support or have all the code for the 4.4 ports
 thing is it is pretty old, .5GB of RAM etc, but like, I just want it to stay connected to Wi-Fi so I can attach a storage to it and use it like a NAS
 technically this wouldn't need more than .2 GB of RAM
 but well
 @OverCoder [thing is it is pretty old, .5GB of RAM etc, but like, I just want it to stay con …], buy a Raspberry Pi for $40 instead
 gg android
 @dohbee [buy a Raspberry Pi for $40 instead], I already have to buy storage first etc., but yea looks like I have to
 Yeah, a different computer might be a better option in that situation. You won't go very far with that little horsepower.
 hmm
 I wish I could instead install like
 Ubuntu Touch is built and designed a phone OS, not a traditional Linux distro
 Arch linux there lol
 maybe you can install postmarketOS
 There is arch for the pi
 @dohbee [maybe you can install postmarketOS], checking that out
 it's more like what you're looking for i guess
 wait I just remember, I have an actual device that should do well
 hmm

 Ho guys. I own a BQ E4.5 with ubuntu version 15.04 installed
 Is it possible to upgrade it? I think that the phone was sold with ubuntu pre installed
 @stanza [Ho guys. I own a BQ E4.5 with ubuntu version 15.04 installed], Welcome. Yes, upgrade is possible. I think you should just need to use the installer.
 I installed it on my linux box. It tells me to reboot phone in bootloader mode. After doing that the installer seems to be stuck, it does not (maybe) recognize the device
 @stanza [I installed it on my linux box. It tells me to reboot phone in bootloader mode. …], make sure you have `fastboot` and `adb` tools installed
 (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc.ubports.com/0oxuRyE0.png
 I have them installer
 Installed. The installer is stuck this way, see the photo
 Unfortunately I do not know how to proceed further in the installation
 Should I file a bug? Or am I missing something?
 Does this work on the samsung galaxy note 10.1
 2012
 No
 Ok
 NOOK HD+?

In the blog post I noticed the change log included a wireless display fix, but my phone detects the connected device and hangs on connecting. Is that still a known
[16:29] <ubptgbot>  issue not fixed?
 @John (Marlin) [I added comments on a few issues relevant to my device (Nexus 5). In the blog po …], are you connecting to a MS Wireless Dislay Adapter?
[16:32] <ubptgbot> <John (Marlin)> @dohbee [are you connecting to a MS Wireless Dislay Adapter?], Miracast. Generic, I think. Not sure.
 I can only guarantee it works with a Microsoft Display Adapter
 And even then, not that well
 Right, there may be other issues with other adapters. it's only ever really been tested well with the MS adapter
 also, are you on stable or RC?
[16:34] <ubptgbot> <John (Marlin)> @UniversalSuperBox [And even then, not that well], It used to be consistent with detecting the adaptor. Now I have to switch Wireless Display on and off a few times before it's detected. No problem connecting with Android though.
[16:34] <ubptgbot> <John (Marlin)> @dohbee [also, are you on stable or RC?], I was on devel, but just now switched to rc for the QA feedback.
 ok
 @Tygerpro [Lol, Im a bit rusty as I havent done anything porting related in awhile due to l …], okay then after you give up, buy an HTC 10 and help with the port 😝 … trust me, it can be like a "flagship" of UT...well specs-wise and features 😁
 Lol, Ive got a note 4 port I should finish as well
 @Javacookies haven't seen you in porting channel :)
