ubptgbot<Javacookies> @amyosx [Hold volume up when you plug it in], thanks for this … it actually revived my E505:05
ubptgbot<Javacookies> turns out battery wasn't the issue, the power button is just really hard to press05:05
ubptgbot<Javacookies> (Photo, 960x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/sknSakqb.png welcome back to an edge image from August 2019 😄 … and it has my keyboard prototype05:07
ubptgbot<nikio> @Javacookies [<reply to media>], oh dear.. your display is suffers.. and my eyes too😇05:10
ubptgbot<Javacookies> yeah, this phone shows its beating 😅 … there's a touch dead spot around the bottom too and that's the reason why I switched to another phone05:12
ubptgbot<Javacookies> that screen issue appeared only after being stocked for a long time05:12
ubptgbot<nikio> so, its just your testPhone?  … then i won't worry about your eyes anymore😇05:13
ubptgbot<Javacookies> yeah, it was my first UT daily driver phone 😉05:16
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I've switched to another device like 3-4 times after that 😄05:16
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> perfect for a certain test hehehehe06:19

ubptgbot<amyosx> @Lukapanio [Same], Not to mention the time they made me write an apology letter saying sorry for having a meltdown when the head was shouting at me10:02
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Sounds like a Victorian Workhouse school10:03
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I'm actually surprised that my E5 quite smoothly … it's a year old unreleased image version though but I wonder if it's still the same now10:06
ubptgbot<Javacookies> even the tab swicther in morph seems smoother than my Nexus 510:06
ubptgbot<amyosx> @Stereofont [Sounds like a Victorian Workhouse school], Just a normal British school10:07
ubptgbot<amyosx> They arent exactly the most understanding10:07
ubptgbot<Javacookies> [Edit] I'm actually surprised that my E5 is still work quite smoothly … it's a year old unreleased image version though but I wonder if it's still the same now10:08

ubptgbot<Sanath> What are you thoughts on  switch to ubport documentation to something like mediawiki or Wikijs.The primary advantage of them is ease of   updation.Currently checking in through github is a more time consuming process mainly and can discourage non techincal user who wish to update documentation.13:03
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Sanath [What are you thoughts on  switch to ubport documentation to something like media …], Well basically nice idea, but we need to gate any changes through a review process. We dont want to lower the quality, and so a Github PR is a good tool to get the attention of the core team to review stuff13:12

ubptgbot<gnugarro> Hi all. Do Teleports work on your devices?13:58
ubptgbot<gnugarro> Lately, I cannot load any chat. I can see the chat list and the details, but I cannot read the messages nor send them13:59
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @Sanath [What are you thoughts on  switch to ubport documentation to something like media …], i think the main concern was the constant spam that wikis get14:03
ubptgbot<Flohack> @gnugarro [Lately, I cannot load any chat. I can see the chat list and the details, but I c …], Yeah its a rare case of we dont know what, people report this from time to time. Only known reason is out of storage space on the device, but thats probably not the case right?14:05
ubptgbot<Levkama> I want to install ubuntu touch for Samsung galaxy Tab 2 help me14:05
ubptgbot<amyosx> Port it :)14:05
ubptgbot<Levkama> @amyosx [Port it :)], I found a video with the installation ,but the links don't work14:06
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Flohack [Yeah its a rare case of we dont know what, people report this from time to time. …], I have ~6 GB left14:06
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Flohack [Yeah its a rare case of we dont know what, people report this from time to time. …], [Edit] I have ~6 GB left, so I don't think14:07
ubptgbot<gnugarro> Do you know how can I repair it?14:07
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> perhaps restart teleports?14:07
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> or clear cache14:07
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Fuseteam [or clear cache], How do I do so? Will I lose secret chats?14:08
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @gnugarro [Lately, I cannot load any chat. I can see the chat list and the details, but I c …], this happened to me a couple of times already and as mentioned, the cause is still unknown. When it happens, teleports won't work on any of my UT devices and it gets fixed after some random time14:08
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Javacookies [this happened to me a couple of times already and as mentioned, the cause is sti …], Oh, ok14:09
ubptgbot<gnugarro> Oh14:09
ubptgbot<gnugarro> [Edit] Oh It loaded now!14:09
ubptgbot<Flohack> @gnugarro [Do you know how can I repair it?], No, sorry, except wiping it entirely with the tweak tool14:09
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @gnugarro [How do I do so? Will I lose secret chats?], uh not sure if secret chats uses .cache14:09
ubptgbot<gnugarro> 🎉14:11
ubptgbot<Flohack> @gnugarro [How do I do so? Will I lose secret chats?], Yes you will. YOu can only wait until this works again or loose them, sorry for that14:12
ubptgbot<gnugarro> It's really strange anyway14:12
ubptgbot<Sanath> @mateosalta [i think the main concern was the constant spam that wikis get], If the main is concern is spam then we could still restrict author access & allow only trusted users as authers.14:12
ubptgbot<Flohack> It seems to be a problem with Telegram servers and tdlib, they start to disagree about smth and then things get stsuck, until it gets fixed magically again14:12
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Flohack [Yes you will. YOu can only wait until this works again or loose them, sorry for …], There is no way to clean everything except secret chats?14:13
ubptgbot<Sanath> I wonder how other projects like postmarketos which use mediawiki manage to prevent spam14:13
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @gnugarro [There is no way to clean everything except secret chats?], Probably it could be a good thing to have a button in the settings menu to do that14:13
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @Sanath [If the main is concern is spam then we could still restrict author access & allo …], tbh submitting a pull request isn't that difficult14:13
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @gnugarro [There is no way to clean everything except secret chats?], [Edit] Probably it could be a good thing to have a button in the Teleports settings menu to do that14:14
ubptgbot<Flohack> @gnugarro [There is no way to clean everything except secret chats?], No, the whole purpose is that secret chats is that you cannot easily duplicate them, back them up. If you loose your device e.g. they are also gone14:14
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> it's not about duplicating perse tho it's more about wiping everything but14:15
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @Flohack [No, the whole purpose is that secret chats is that you cannot easily duplicate t …], Ok, it seems right14:15
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> people tend to overestimate pull estimate, it's actually as easy as editing a wiki but it sends it through a public review process14:16
ubptgbot<gnugarro> @gnugarro [Ok, it seems right], In the Android App I think there are specific buttons to clear the cache or parts of it, right?14:17
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> [Edit] people tend to overestimate pull requests, it's actually as easy as editing a wiki but it sends it through a public review process14:17
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @Fuseteam [tbh submitting a pull request isn't that difficult], easier trying to find out who to contact to get access to the wiki, then trying to gain trust, ect.14:17
ubptgbot<mateosalta> I just remember how the orginial ubuntu wiki went14:17
ubptgbot<Sanath> @Fuseteam [tbh submitting a pull request isn't that difficult], For a developer submitting pull request is not difficult but non a non technical person who wants to contribute to say translation or user guide he might find it overwhelming.14:17
ubptgbot<Sanath> @mateosalta [easier trying to find out who to contact to get access to the wiki, then trying …], thats true👍14:17
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @mateosalta [easier trying to find out who to contact to get access to the wiki, then trying …], i mean technically you already have access, 🤔14:18
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @Sanath [For a developer submitting pull request is not difficult but non a non technical …], no really, it not difficult at all. just click the edit button make your changes and click the green pull request button14:18
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> any changes you make gets attributed to you and you can continue to make changes14:19
ubptgbot<mateosalta> they were talking about on a qa once i think14:19
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i dunno the "technical difficulty" of pull requests is just as much of a myth as "only programmers use linux"14:20
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @Sanath [For a developer submitting pull request is not difficult but non a non technical …], i would like to encourage you to give it a try? i can guarantee you its really not as technical as it seems14:22
ubptgbot<Sanath> @Fuseteam [i would like to encourage you to give it a try? i can guarantee you its really n …], Sure I will definitely try.thanks🙂14:24
ubptgbot<amyosx> (Photo, 720x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/VDlwokeT.png Epic use of Ubuntu touch14:45
ubptgbot<amyosx> One of few devices with an SD slot14:45
ubptgbot<MichelP74> Does anyone know if and when Ubuntu Touch will be available for the Google Pixel 2 or HTC One M9 ?15:59
ubptgbot<ruedigerkupper> Just had a look at the "promoted devices" page: https://ubports.com/de/devices/promoted-devices … There's something wrong with the description of the Volla phone. I'm not sure if I am seeing some kind of text that has been autotranslated forth-and-back between English and German, but it is full of mistakes: … "Volla Phone, the smar16:01
ubptgbottphone that makes your head keep it clear. With a unique, simple controls take you right out of your phone what you need, without the mandatory use from all kinds of apps. You don't need a account to create the phone can use. With the Volla Phone decide what information you want and what data you share. This way you have more time left to do things16:01
ubptgbot that you really care about. … Want to see source code, report a bug or check latest release? Check hier  "16:01
ubptgbot<ruedigerkupper> What's happening with that text?16:02
ubptgbot<ruedigerkupper> Oh, my ... 😊 There's obviously some autotranslation magic at work. Other descriptions have mistranslations, too: "Die Aquaris ist eine Tablette, die sowohl dünn als auch leicht ist" This reads like an ad for some kind of pain killer 😉.16:05
ubptgbot<ruedigerkupper> This is using Google Chrome on the (German) Windows 10 platform. No matter which language I select in Chrome's preferences, I always get this weird autotranslation ...?16:09
ubptgbot<Javacookies> might be chrome auto translating websites16:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> @MichelP74 [Does anyone know if and when Ubuntu Touch will be available for the Google Pixel …], When someone does the porting work16:12
ubptgbot<just_carlod> @Javacookies [might be chrome auto translating websites], firefox also auto translate ubports.com website16:12
ubptgbot<just_carlod> All you can do is delete `/lang/` from  url16:13
ubptgbot<Danfro> @just_carlod [All you can do is delete /lang/ from  url], Just checked. If I set language to English, the messed up text remains. I think the original English text got messed up.16:14
ubptgbot<Javacookies> ah but I think that'16:14
ubptgbot<Javacookies> [Edit] ah but I think that's just the translated version of the site not something thaht the browser translted16:14
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I think it happens to me too, can't remember which device but it always redirects me to the italian version of the site16:15
ubptgbot<Danfro> @Javacookies [I think it happens to me too, can't remember which device but it always redirect …], Devices page has got a language setting at the bottom. When set to English, there is still the messy text there. And no language substring in the URL remaining.16:16
ubptgbot<Javacookies> oh I guess, the english version is indeed messed up16:19
ubptgbot<ptrcnull> btw, what's with the spacing on the page?16:44
ubptgbot<ptrcnull> (Photo, 234x101) https://irc.ubports.com/Cr0j6xgt.png and there is none16:45
