ubptgbot<YepYepperson> Question about the Q&A: When donating, would it be possible to give a custom name? And if so, how absurd could I go before Dalton would refuse to read it out loud?00:46
ubptgbot<YepYepperson> [Edit] When donating, would it be possible to give a custom name? Or does it just go off of the name the payment processor gives?00:52
ubptgbot<iminlovewith> @YepYepperson [When donating, would it be possible to give a custom name? Or does it just go of …], that's very good question00:52
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @YepYepperson [When donating, would it be possible to give a custom name? Or does it just go of …], i think it depends on which method you use00:56

ubptgbot<Danfro> @rithytelegram [Yes Sir], Looks like some strings are already translated. https://translate.ubports.com/languages/km/ubports/05:56
ubptgbot<Danfro> Just register and go ahead translating more strings if you speak the language.05:56
ubptgbot<Danfro> For app translations you can read through here: http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/contribute/translations.html05:59
ubptgbot<Sanath> Installed Ubuntu touch on Xioami mi a3 jist.sending this message  from my Ubuntu  touch now.I just love the work you have  done.Love you Ubports😢06:02
ubptgbot<Danfro> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/g6dTOjTc.webp06:03
ubptgbot<Danfro> Congrats!06:03
ubptgbot<Danfro> Nice job.06:03
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> @Danfro [For app translations you can read through here: http://docs.ubports.com/en/lates …], I am not a developer, what I can share to my developer to make them able to try this Sir?06:20
ubptgbot<pavelov> @rithytelegram [I am not a developer, what I can share to my developer to make them able to try …], translate the apps/docs06:22
ubptgbot<Danfro> @rithytelegram [I am not a developer, what I can share to my developer to make them able to try …], Thats the good thing about weblate. You do not need to be a developer. It is a webinterface where you can see the English string and enter the translated string for your language.06:24
ubptgbot<Danfro> For translating apps things are a bit more difficult, but can still be done without coding skills. There some basic knowlede of git is needed.06:25
ubptgbot<Danfro> If you know programmers, share äy second link with them.06:25
ubptgbot<Danfro> The first one is where you can take part yourself.06:25
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> Wow … I am very exciting now06:26
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> What if I need my programmer to add new feature to the OS core? … What skills my team would need?06:26
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> We want to develop a native feature to block all nudity contents on phone that we will install Ubuntu touch OS on06:27
ubptgbot<Danfro> New strings will then be available at a new release of an app or with an system update for those parts.06:27
ubptgbot<Danfro> @rithytelegram [We want to develop a native feature to block all nudity contents on phone that w …], Some more information are in the docs. In General for most apps and system parts QML is used for the user interface. For the backend you can use several programming languages.06:41
ubptgbot<Danfro> For core components c++ is needed.06:41
ubptgbot<Danfro> Otherwise js, go, rust, python,... can be used with various benefits or restrictions.06:41
ubptgbot<Danfro> Clickable is the tool used for app packaging. That is described in the doc too.06:42
ubptgbot<Danfro> http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/index.html06:43
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> Wow06:43
ubptgbot<rithytelegram> I love open source software😍😍06:43
ubptgbot<Danfro> Have fun. It is all open source. So for features make a PR/MR and see if it does get accepted.06:43
ubptgbot<Danfro> Because most of us are volunteers, some things may take time to get through. Even more nowadays with Corona.06:44
ubptgbot<Danfro> @rithytelegram [I love open source software😍😍], We too. 😇06:45

ubptgbot<Javacookies> showing the battery percentage may also help10:56
ubptgbot<Aga> Good idea Stefan 😀 we did similar thing, move notifications to the left 😀 I installed UT Tweak Tool and turned in it on the battery percentage and notifications are just on the left side of camera 😀11:09

ubptgbot<Fuseteam> it is? really?13:42
ubptgbot<John> But I need some tutorial to install it13:42
ubptgbot<John> As it is not yet supported by ut installer13:43
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> that's the `zuk z2 plus` right? are you sure you have a z2 plus?13:44
ubptgbot<jonny> @John [But I need some tutorial to install it], If you follow the link on the device page, it leads here: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/3829/zuk-z2_plus13:44
Maik@John it's stil a WIP (Work In Progress) Don't expect it to work fully yet at al13:45
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> the list is pretty good for a pip(port in progress) tbh13:46
Maik@John als: The Zuk z2 Plus is not supported by the UBports Installer yet. You can help us by contributing a config file.13:46

ubptgbot<Stereofont> Any thoughts on ordering the list of devices by year of release? Most recent at the top13:54
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @John [Can u give me telegram I'd of developer], Join the forum and become part of that discussion13:55
ubptgbot<amyosx> @Stereofont [Any thoughts on ordering the list of devices by year of release? Most recent at …], Yes, as one of those things you can sort by13:57
ubptgbot<amyosx> By default it should be maturity imo13:57
ubptgbot<John> @Stereofont [Any thoughts on ordering the list of devices by year of release? Most recent at …], Redmi 4 in option but costs higher than zuk z2 plus on the site where i am purchasing13:58
ubptgbot<Stereofont> A drop-down sorting protocol would be nice perhaps13:59
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Price varies with location so might be low, medium, high only13:59
ubptgbot<Stereofont> But old generally equals cheap14:00
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Maybe we need three broad maturity categories. 1. Some things working. 2. Some significant issues still. 3. Daily driver if your needs are average14:03
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Scrap %14:03
ubptgbot<Stereofont> So three lists14:03
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Objective, published criteria for inclusion in 1, 2 or 314:05
ubptgbot<amyosx> Sounds good14:07
ubptgbot<amyosx> Pmos do something similar14:07
ubptgbot<amyosx> But let's avoid terms like core devices14:07
ubptgbot<Shakendo> @amyosx [But let's avoid terms like core devices], I myself like the term, stable devices14:17

ubptgbot<Sanath> @rogieroudshoorn [arm64 i preume], I meant OTA version.I don't think  it is based on latest OTA-15.14:38

ubptgbot<Sanath> @Flohack Is there any plans to release new GSI builds with every OTA release? It would be very helpful in bringing in more tester for testing. I am currently using erfan's UT GSI builds.We cannot test changes that not Generic(example: Some UI behavior).If we could support GSIs more people with other devices can also contribute.17:18
ubptgbot<just_carlod> gsi is not officially supported by ubports17:20
ubptgbot<Flohack> Yeah I am personally more leaning towards classic device images. But thats another story. Currently we have not many resources for an official support for that. Maybe I can talk weith the guys after Christmas holidays how that would fit into 202117:21

ubptgbot<dohbee> @just_carlod [installer is really buggy, it's easier to install ubnutu touch manually than via …], eh? it works fine, especially for nexus 520:08
ubptgbot<Flohack> @just_carlod [installer is really buggy, it's easier to install ubnutu touch manually than via …], Thats actually not true20:08
ubptgbot<dohbee> @xander2m [I've just bought the phone so I don't know if it has the repartition resizing.], flash last OEM Android 6 image first to be sure20:09
ubptgbot<Flohack> The installer is not buggy, but we cannot test all strange combinations of distribution and device hardware20:09
ubptgbot<just_carlod> @dohbee [eh? it works fine, especially for nexus 5], so, maybe it's buggy for me20:09
ubptgbot<xander2m> @dohbee [flash last OEM Android 6 image first to be sure], I did do this. Then I've got as far as Ubuntu recovery being installed20:09
ubptgbot<just_carlod> maybe I don't have some dependencies or something like that20:09
ubptgbot<dohbee> @xander2m [I did do this. Then I've got as far as Ubuntu recovery being installed], did installer say it finished?20:10
ubptgbot<Flohack> @just_carlod [so, maybe it's buggy for me], The installer just needs to see the device in fastboot once to flash the recovery image, and then see it another time in adb/recovery mode to copy files. If the installer waits forever, quit it and see what fastboot devices and adb devices gives you20:10
ubptgbot<xander2m> No.20:10
ubptgbot<xander2m> I'll try Ubuntu version rather than snap version20:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> @xander2m [I'll try Ubuntu version rather than snap version], i used appimage version just fine, with fastboot/adb installed from debian20:11
ubptgbot<Flohack> 90% of the problems are wrong udev rules for Android USB detection. The installer tries to fix that, but it does not work in all cases. So first thing is, can you see the device properly in fastboot and recovery mode20:11
ubptgbot<xander2m> Fastboot devices works.20:12
ubptgbot<xander2m> What do you mean by see device properly in recovery mode?20:12
ubptgbot<dohbee> run `adb devices` while in recovery20:12
ubptgbot<xander2m> [Edit] "Fastboot devices" works.20:12
ubptgbot<Flohack> Well if the installer finds the device in fastboot mode, it will flash a temporary recovery to the boot partition, and issue "fastboot reboot" to get there.20:12
ubptgbot<xander2m> @dohbee [run adb devices while in recovery], Okay20:12
ubptgbot<xander2m> @Flohack [Well if the installer finds the device in fastboot mode, it will flash a tempora …], Yes that bit worked20:13
ubptgbot<Flohack> then it waits for adb devices to show a correct, unlocked adb device20:13
ubptgbot<xander2m> Preparing system for installation formatting system is on screen now20:13
ubptgbot<Flohack> so close the installer, run adb devices and post the result20:14
ubptgbot<xander2m> @dohbee [run adb devices while in recovery], It says an unauthorized device20:14
ubptgbot<Flohack> well there we have it ^^20:14
ubptgbot<Flohack> Which device is it?20:15
ubptgbot<xander2m> Sweet. How do I fix that then?20:15
ubptgbot<xander2m> [Edit] Sweet. How do I fix that then? Please20:15
ubptgbot<just_carlod> enable adb in android20:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> @just_carlod [enable adb in android], Not so quickly. Our recoveries should all be open20:15
ubptgbot<xander2m> In developer settings?20:15
ubptgbot<just_carlod> that's true20:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> Thats not needed, only for TWRP20:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> Wait. What device is it20:15
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Flohack [Wait. What device is it], https://t.me/ubports/31144620:16
ubptgbot<xander2m> I fresh installed newest factory image, unlocked it in developer settings, and started20:16
ubptgbot<Flohack> Ouch. Nexus 5 recovery is 100% open20:16
ubptgbot<Flohack> Idk what happens there then20:16
ubptgbot<xander2m> Maybe I'll start over?20:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> i'm pretty sure our recovery checks the android property for enabling adb20:17
ubptgbot<Flohack> @dohbee [i'm pretty sure our recovery checks the android property for enabling adb], Humm. Okay but he said he unlocked it. Try to first "Allow USB debugging" in the settings, then connect the cable, and confirm to allow the device in the popup that should appear20:17
ubptgbot<xander2m> Yes, I did that first20:18
ubptgbot<dohbee> enable usb debugging in android developer settings, and do `adb shell` to get the poup and allow the PC and check the 'always allow'20:18
ubptgbot<Flohack> yes20:18
ubptgbot<Flohack> That could help20:18
ubptgbot<xander2m> I think I did that. Maybe I forgot to click the box?? I'll boot back into android and have a check20:18
ubptgbot<Flohack> @dohbee [i'm pretty sure our recovery checks the android property for enabling adb], For Halium 7.1 we have unlocked recoveries, but you might be right about 5.1 -20:18
ubptgbot<xander2m> I'll have to re-flash it as phone won't boot 😂😂😂20:20
ubptgbot<xander2m> So I typed ADB devices in terminal and ticked the box.20:42
