| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> Yeah... Maybe there is a similar but cooler way we can do it. | 02:01 |

| ubptgbot | <Pling> No need for their app ... Alexa is no go for me | 15:01 |

| ubptgbot | <pjk2012> @linux debian [simply .. to find someone to help, i couldn't do it cuz of lots of dependencies …], Sorry. There is no LineageOS build for your Samsung, so a halium port is not possible. I would suggest you get a secondhand Nexus 5, One Plus One, or Meizu Pro 5. The Nexus would be the cheapest, the Meizu the most powerful. | 15:22 |

| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @Pling [Can I install or improve something over the command line?], no, if it can't connect then the problem is likely not so trivial | 15:34 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> @dohbee [that is not true. a lineage port makes porting easier, but it is not an absolute …], Have the lineage port is much easier than no port, but at the same time you are correct, depends on how badly they want UT on their device | 15:36 |

| ubptgbot | <MrFlyback> The construction i discovered is very weak if you're going to be taking it apart | 16:25 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> @Waldbursche [Hi, i have 2 devices OneplusOne with UT 16.04 dev and desktop on my workstation …], Try unplugging the cable then plugging it back in, could be just that simple | 16:25 |
| ubptgbot | <MrFlyback> i broke the same part on my new assembly as on the old one | 16:25 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> @MrFlyback [The construction i discovered is very weak if you're going to be taking it apart], My N5 is in a case that covers the buttons and gives them a more tactile feel, I havent had any issues with it so far | 16:26 |
| ubptgbot | <MrFlyback> the thin plastic part above the slot for the sim holder | 16:26 |
| ubptgbot | <Waldbursche> @Shakendo [Try unplugging the cable then plugging it back in, could be just that simple], During the hanging process or to start e new install event? | 16:27 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> When its "stuck" try it after a few minutes, I have had an issue where adb sees it but it is reported offline or unauthorized and just doing that resolves it | 16:28 |
| ubptgbot | <Waldbursche> @Shakendo [When its "stuck" try it after a few minutes, I have had an issue where adb sees …], I try it during the stucking process once i waiting a few minutes without relaunch the installer? Did you mean so? | 16:32 |

| ubptgbot | <Xixses> Like a web server | 21:07 |

| ubptgbot | <Xixses> ? | 21:14 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> UT is not the same as Ubuntu, the stuff the desktop can do can not be replicated as easily on Ubuntu Touch. As far as whether or not your note 3 is ported, its not an official device, but someone could be porting it, if not you are more than welcome to do so yourself | 21:18 |
| nerdcore | is there a way to access a shell on my ubtouch device over USB? | 21:21 |
| nerdcore | not adb I'm guessing :P | 21:21 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> Adb shell will get you a bash shell, but it wont work exactly the same as an ssh shell, if its a device you ported then you just have to ssh in after making sure the RNDIS interface is configured | 21:25 |
| nerdcore | what is RNDIS? | 21:27 |
| nerdcore | when I did `adb devices` it showed nothing but I'll check System Settings and try again | 21:28 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> RNDIS is a network interface that UT uses over usb | 21:33 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> It will show in dmesg when you plug in your device if it using that interface | 21:34 |
| nerdcore | ah ok ty | 21:38 |
| nerdcore | still a bit confused; I plug in USB and `adb devices` shows empty, and I don't see any helpful options in System Settings to enable the bridge | 21:48 |
| nerdcore | am I just not looking in the right place? | 21:49 |
| nerdcore | hmm enabled "Developer Mode" and still nothing | 21:50 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [say, who runs the ubuntu push service?], UBports does | 22:03 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @Shakendo [Adb shell will get you a bash shell, but it wont work exactly the same as an ssh …], rndis has nothing to do with shells | 22:04 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> if you want ssh over usb, find the `phablet-shell` script in the files for this group and use that | 22:05 |
| ubptgbot | <Shakendo> @dohbee [rndis has nothing to do with shells], I didnt say rndis was a shell, i said one can get a ssh shell over it | 22:05 |
| nerdcore | when I connect using USB I get the device's storage as a mtp:// mount. How do I get ssh via RNDIS networking instead? | 22:07 |
| nerdcore | i'd much prefer that :D | 22:07 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @Shakendo [I didnt say rndis was a shell, i said one can get a ssh shell over it], no, rndis is completely unrelated. there is nothing one needs to do with rndis to get a shell. rndis is for using your phone as the wireless network adapter over USB | 22:07 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @nerdcore [when I connect using USB I get the device's storage as a mtp:// mount. How do I …], you don't. pay not attention to rndis | 22:08 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> do as i said. find the `phablet-shell` script in the files of this group, and you can use it to ssh-over-usb | 22:08 |
| nerdcore | dohbee: what do you mean "in the files of this group"? What group? | 22:10 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @nerdcore [dohbee: what do you mean "in the files of this group"? What group?], in the telegram group | 22:13 |
| nerdcore | lolwut | 22:13 |
| * nerdcore is not signing up for Telegram | 22:13 | |
| nerdcore | it's not on github.com ? | 22:14 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> no. it's from the `phablet-tools` package in Ubuntu 16.04, which is on launchpad.net | 22:15 |
| nerdcore | ok cool ty | 22:15 |
| nerdcore | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dGYhXBHxVx/ | 22:18 |
| nerdcore | i get Permission Denied (publickey) by localhost:2222 ? | 22:18 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> odd. can you `adb shell`? | 22:19 |
| nerdcore | I can now, which I could not before | 22:22 |
| nerdcore | thats a step in the right direction. | 22:22 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> hmm, phablet-shell should work then | 22:23 |
| nerdcore | ok well seems localhost:2222 is properly the ubtouch device (and not the host PC), and since I can `adb shell` now I can probably get my pubkey copy/pasted. | 22:24 |
| nerdcore | oh it picked up some other pubkey for which I dont have the associated privkey :P | 22:26 |
| nerdcore | hardcoded into the script and it worked :P | 22:26 |

| nerdcore | should I expect `apt` to work in ubtouch? ;) | 22:29 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @nerdcore [should I expect `apt` to work in ubtouch? ;)], no | 22:29 |
| nerdcore | shucks | 22:29 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> rootfs is readonly and apt is not supported means of installing apps nor upgrading the system | 22:30 |
| nerdcore | how about gcc? :) Is that available? | 22:35 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> you can create a libertine container for legacy apps, and to install CLI tools and such. then you can build things in the container, or do whatever | 22:36 |
| nerdcore | ok I'll read up on Libertine ty | 22:37 |
| nerdcore | how about a load average of > 2.0 when idling; is that "normal"? seems high. | 22:38 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> no, it's not normal i guess | 22:38 |
| nerdcore | well it already feels a bit more comfortable to me than Android ever has. Glad I kept with it (2 days and counting) so far | 22:43 |

| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> 'that's not good' | 23:06 |
| nerdcore | now that I have phablet-shell working, is there a way I can interact with messaging-app via CLI to send/receive SMS? | 23:07 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> blame SoC makers | 23:07 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> but i suppose you shouldn't store sensitive data on it anyway, and you could securely sync up with something... to move files there and get off main device... | 23:07 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @nerdcore [now that I have phablet-shell working, is there a way I can interact with messag …], you can use the standard ofono scripts in `/usr/share/ofono` iirc | 23:07 |

| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> ... I thought I remembered some 'encrypt device' option in installer for UT but maybe that was just Ubuntu regular | 23:09 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> @dohbee [i don't know if pinephone/librem5 provide any hardware backed storage for an enc …], oh.....i guess i need to dig in again to see why this isn't 'just happening' and how it all works. thanks for now. | 23:09 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @wayneoutthere [... I thought I remembered some 'encrypt device' option in installer for UT but …], definitely not for UT | 23:10 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @wayneoutthere [oh.....i guess i need to dig in again to see why this isn't 'just happening' and …], 1) because we don't have an OSK in recovery, so we can't easily use LUKS method right now. 2) because storing the key and encrypted data on the same medium, is not secure | 23:11 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> roger. so a micro sd might work? | 23:11 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> so point is key to decrypt shouldn't exist on the same drive it's decrypting, correct? | 23:12 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> not if you want it to be secure, no | 23:12 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> roger. | 23:12 |

| hallyn | so keys for imap etc, you can use the in-kernel keychain to avoid having them in files on the phone, at least. "it's something" | 23:15 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> yeah actually the cool thing about UT (I was excited to learn this way back and it's still true) is you can just plug a micro usb drive adaptor thing into the main USB hole and use any kind of USB drive (which can hold your keyes) | 23:17 |
| ubptgbot | <wayneoutthere> so if your device doesn't have microSD slot, doesn't matter. you can use that jack | 23:17 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [so keys for imap etc, you can use the in-kernel keychain to avoid having them in …], and where does it store them exactly? | 23:20 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> and are you talking about kernel 3.4? | 23:20 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> or 5.3? | 23:20 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @wayneoutthere [so if your device doesn't have microSD slot, doesn't matter. you can use that ja …], not if the device doesn't support OTG you can't | 23:21 |
| hallyn | @dohbee - near as i can tell there is a user keyring but no session keyring. afaik it's not lying and storing in a file :) | 23:22 |
| * hallyn looking around /usr/share/ofono/scripts - that's a lot of scripts. | 23:22 | |
| ubptgbot | <Fourstring71> So, as I am going to be replacing my phone in a few weeks, which phone handles UT best? Thanks. | 23:34 |
| hallyn | *sigh* well this might put an end to the UT experiment for me for a bit (until i can get one of the new phones). | 23:44 |
| ubptgbot | <Pling> @dohbee [no, if it can't connect then the problem is likely not so trivial], Thank You | 23:44 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [@dohbee - near as i can tell there is a user keyring but no session keyring. af …], so doesn't sound very useful if it's not backed by secure storage :) | 23:46 |
| hallyn | @dohbee ? the point is that if someone takes the phone (and power cycles it) the password isn't stored anywhere | 23:50 |
| hallyn | gah, why is 'vi' so messed up in adb shell and the terminal? :) it works fine in the terminal from a libertine container, but not just as phablet or under sudo | 23:51 |
| hallyn | and no ed to be found. sed it is then | 23:51 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [@dohbee ? the point is that if someone takes the phone (and power cycles it) th …], which obviously doesn't solve the problem of keeping thing stored securely. if the key is only in kernel memory, how does one decrypt something after reboot? | 23:52 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [gah, why is 'vi' so messed up in adb shell and the terminal? :) it works fine …], well, `adb shell` is not a full shell | 23:52 |
| hallyn | @dohbee - right i'm not saying it stores thigns securely :) i'm saying for a few select things it obviates the need to do so :) | 23:52 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> well, secure boot is not one of those things | 23:53 |
| hallyn | i do see a /dev/ecryptfs on the device :) | 23:53 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> and really for most things i suspect it doesn't | 23:53 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [i do see a /dev/ecryptfs on the device :)], well, ecryptfs is no longer supported upstream, so we can't really use that either | 23:53 |
| hallyn | like i said. password | 23:53 |
| hallyn | upstream? you're on xenial | 23:53 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> ecryptfs also has numerous problems | 23:53 |
| hallyn | but again, all i need on the thing is for mutt/offlineimap to get a mail pwd, | 23:54 |
| hallyn | and keyring does that for me. | 23:54 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [upstream? you're on xenial], xenial for the moment. if we build an entire platform based on it being supported in the future, that would obviously fail | 23:54 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> @hallyn [but again, all i need on the thing is for mutt/offlineimap to get a mail pwd,], but we were talking about encryption, not mutt :P | 23:54 |
| hallyn | sorry, i missed that part | 23:54 |
| hallyn | i was just saying "so for some things it's better than nothing", not "you don't need luks" | 23:54 |
| hallyn | maybe i need to consider supporting ecryptfs. So far there is still nothing out there that supports the same use case (of selective encrypted backup). of course tha'ts by design :) but still. | 23:55 |
| hallyn | anyway, back to trying ot get my sim card recognized again. | 23:55 |
| ubptgbot | <dohbee> i don't think ecryptfs is the right solution (even if i'm using it now on a PC) | 23:56 |
