Volla phon …], I have a Pinephone running UT. There are still a few thinks to work out on the phone. You can use it for calls and texts, but no headset support yet. As a Pinephone user, and going by the progress marked in the UT devices page, I’d say you’re bett [01:55] er off with a Volla phone. [02:14] Hopefully the kernel upgrade helps a bit. [02:33] @TotalSonic [silly name, but they make really well built stuff from my experience.], haha sorry i found a fun name so i had some fun with it [02:35] (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/MOZxLSJ2.webp [03:40] @TotalSonic [Just tested - Volla Phone on Ubuntu Touch working very well with iClever IC-BK05 …], that's a folding keyboard right? … I think I have the same model and it does work well on UT [03:43] Rich was added by: Rich [03:43] Is it possible to change the DNS settings for my WiFi connection? [03:43] @Javacookies [that's a folding keyboard right? … I think I have the same model and it does work …], Tri-folding with full size keys. Unlike other tri-folding ones I have seen, the iClever feels really solid, and is comfortable to type with. I also have a iClever BK-08, which has smaller keys along with a touchpad, and that can fold d [03:43] own to the size of a bulky smart phone and even fit in the pocket. It's not as comfortable to type on that one, but if a portable "convergence" setup is the goal, it could possibly be a good choice. [03:43] @Javacookies [that's a folding keyboard right? … I think I have the same model and it does work …], [Edit] Tri-folding with full size keys. Unlike other tri-folding ones I have seen, the iClever BK-05 feels really solid, and is comfortable to type with. I also have a iClever BK-08, which has smaller keys along with a touchpad, and th [03:43] at can fold down to the size of a bulky smart phone and even fit in the pocket. It's not as comfortable to type on that one, but if a portable "convergence" setup is the goal, it could possibly be a good choice. [03:46] I have a few clients that unfortunately like to do a bunch of their communication via SMS. Being able to have an external regular sized keyboard for dealing with these sometime more long winded and involved exchanges (including copying and pasting in links and parts of form letters) is really helpful in dealing with that. Luckily UT [03:46] paired with a decent Bluetooth keyboard can make this easy. [03:51] (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/Ehbj0b7W.png [03:51] ah yes, same as mine … it's a cool design since the folds doesn't change the key layout and size. … I've had a few of this trifold keyboards … but the common issue is that some keys may stop working especially around the hinges. [03:52] the backlight on this one is nice too [03:52] previous models came with a cool hardcase but doesn't seem to have them now [03:52] @TotalSonic [the backlight on this one is nice too], yeah different colors too [03:53] Now we sound like we're tag teaming an advertisement for them. lol [03:53] The back of this thing is a nice solid aluminum though.

[04:07] hmm i should probably test it but yes there's a cli way to do it on ut i think [04:08] another cool thing about it is that it's multi device (3 BT & 1 Wired) [04:08] Here's the iClever BK-08 with it [04:08] (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/CHjRZ5Gd.png [04:08] (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/QFHxXNMw.png [04:08] (Photo, 1280x960) https://irc.ubports.com/okOVkcVH.png [04:09] @Javacookies [], nice! - yup, looks to be the same one [04:09] it's a showcase of keyboards and UT devices LOL [04:10] send on TELEPorts is `Shift +Enter` [04:10] shouldn't it be `Ctrl +Enter`? [04:11] was sending the pics from my Redmi Note 7 running Lineage 17.1 currently. [04:11] But thanks for the key commands on TELEports - was not aware of that. [04:11] @Fuseteam [oh this was overlooked, do you mean like 1.1.1.1?], Yeah. Like, I’m using my ISP’s DNS and I wanna switch it. [04:12] and I wish `Esc` for back will be standardize on UT. Helpful when navigating with keyboard [04:12] @Javacookies [and I wish Esc for back will be standardize on UT. Helpful when navigating with …], that could be helpful. [04:13] Alfred's apps I think has it already and I'm trying to put it on my apps as well [04:14] maybe I'll just create a PR for all the apps I want it to have :D [04:14] word ribbon and emoji being available with external keyboard would be cool too [04:16] @Javacookies [], BTW, the stand here is the hardcase I'm talking about [04:16] It would definitely be good if there was some design guidance from the UBports team on suggestions for keeping key commands consistent for apps that support keyboard controls, if that hasn't happened yet. [04:16] it came with my previous trifold keyboard, just making you envious LOL [04:17] Yeah, my Meizu Pro 5 came with a kickstand in its case - I have one similar ordered for my Volla - it helps that Gigaset GS290 has a few different ones made for it - but I still had to order to be shipped in from Germany. [04:19] @Javacookies [and I wish Esc for back will be standardize on UT. Helpful when navigating with …], eh? do we really need esc? [04:20] @JIHP334 [Yeah. Like, I’m using my ISP’s DNS and I wanna switch it.], as of right now you can do `sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/SSID` and set your dns there [04:20] @Fuseteam [eh? do we really need esc?], for keyboard navigation, I like it better than bakckspace since it's usually jsut on the upper left end [04:21] @Javacookies [Alfred's apps I think has it already and I'm trying to put it on my apps as well], wait what? o.O [04:23] @Javacookies [for keyboard navigation, I like it better than bakckspace since it's usually jsu …], eh? how? much of what i do on the pc is keyboard driven, i haven't exactly used esc at all [04:23] yes even with vim /tab2escapeftw [04:23] [Edit] yes even with vim #tab2escapeftw [04:24] for UT apps for example, how do you want to go back on pages? … mouse? I think `Esc` is better [04:25] are we talking about the same thing? 😄 [04:25] hmm haven't thought of that :p [04:26] i usually alt left on the keyboard :p [04:27] @Javacookies [are we talking about the same thing? 😄], first i though you mean esc on the osk, bui when you said "keyboard navigation" thought docking station [04:27] of course, physcial keyboard, why would you navigation with an OSK? 😛 [04:29] yeah :p [04:29] whistles in vim [04:31] @Fuseteam [as of right now you can do sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/SSID …], Thank you!

The Indiegogo price is pure usury, I agree. [07:13] I hope Pine64 eventually makes something similar, then we can support it without reverse-engineering APKs [07:14] Theres always nexdock: … https://nexdock.com/ [07:14] you can connect any DP / HDMI monitor to a pinephone (with a converter) right ? [07:18] @drym4rch0n [Theres always nexdock: … https://nexdock.com/], Nexdock requires device to be have DisplayPort over Type-C feature, which is not so common in phones nowadays [07:18] @drym4rch0n [Theres always nexdock: … https://nexdock.com/], [Edit] Nexdock requires device to have DisplayPort over Type-C feature, which is not so common in phones nowadays [07:21] devices that claim to work with "any" smartphone basically work by streaming desktop over USB data connection (think of VNC over USB network but more optimized for this) [07:22] my portable monitor is touchscreen-capable and it does work on my HTC 10 via type-C, I've been wanting to try UT with it but the monitor is still stuck in our office since the start of the pandemic LOL … and UT on HTC 10 has became stagnant.... [07:23] @NotKit [Nexdock requires device to have DisplayPort over Type-C feature, which is not so …], I wouldn't be surprised if it just uses `scrcpy` [07:23] @NotKit [Nexdock requires device to have DisplayPort over Type-C feature, which is not so …], How does convergence work with UT then? I thought it was just the usb-c port. [07:25] there's displayport-over-usb-c, there's MHL (HDMI over micro USB), and there's wireless display with miracast [07:25] first 2 require dedicated hardware [07:25] second one requires an adapter (or hardware) in your second screen, and has visible latency [07:27] the first one is now standard with high end qualcom chips that do usb3+, so it'll become more normal over time [07:28] @rogieroudshoorn [there's displayport-over-usb-c, there's MHL (HDMI over micro USB), and there's w …], Interesting. Would the high speed charging OnePlus phones be usb3+ chips? [07:28] Slimport is actually more common than MHL with UT-supported devices but in general, regardless of what the device uses, both should work in UT [07:28] @drym4rch0n [How does convergence work with UT then? I thought it was just the usb-c port.], currently it works only with devices that support video output to external script (except for Miracast) [07:29] usb3 type-c doesn't guarantee external display support [07:29] @drym4rch0n [How does convergence work with UT then? I thought it was just the usb-c port.], [Edit] currently it works only with devices that support video output to external screen (except for Miracast) [07:29] but there's higher change it does if it's USB3 type-c [07:29] @drym4rch0n [Interesting. Would the high speed charging OnePlus phones be usb3+ chips?], oneplus supports it since the 7. up to 7, they had usb 2 [07:29] [Edit] but there's a higher chance it does if it's USB3 type-c [07:30] OnePlus 7 and 8 should support external display because of recent Snapdragon SoCs that finally have it integrated [07:30] It's weird to me that docking to desktop didn't catch on better. I bought the Samsung Note 8 and a dock as soon as it came out just for that feature. And it was pretty cool. Few bugs, but I knew it was early in the game. Then it just never caught on. I like that Ubports is working to make that part of it. [07:31] Good to know, I have OnePlus 7 Pro and OnePlus 8T's. [07:31] actually it's even better with the Phosh / Plasma interfaces on the traditional distro's - but those are much worse at being a phone then ubports is [07:32] @drym4rch0n [Good to know, I have OnePlus 7 Pro and OnePlus 8T's.], yeah, got a 5 and 6 here :) [07:34] @rogieroudshoorn [yeah, got a 5 and 6 here :)], I was having a hard time with Verizon and their stupid cdma-less thing while running the OnePlus 7 Pro with LineageOS so I switched to T-Mobile and they were giving away free 8T's. I only needed two lines, got two phones. Then they told me the third line is free, forever. Got a third line [07:34] and a Third freaking 8T. Then called them for 3 days straight and got them to agree to unlock the bootloader on one of them after the first 40 days is up. Heck of a deal. Really dig OnePlus Phones. [07:34] this seems to be a good list that supports it … https://en.everybodywiki.com/List_of_devices_with_video_output_over_USB-C [07:34] Plus now I have a third sim to test out UT phones...lol [07:36] i dropped my 5 on the street, cracked screen, dented back, etc - got it fixed by oneplus repair for 160 euro including fresh battery. it's now 3.5 years old, feels like new. [07:36] @rogieroudshoorn [i dropped my 5 on the street, cracked screen, dented back, etc - got it fixed by …], nice [07:37] yeah, when i told some of my friend they just looked at me like 'you got a 3.5 year old phone?' [07:38] @rogieroudshoorn [yeah, when i told some of my friend they just looked at me like 'you got a 3.5 y …], It's wild that it sounds ancient lol. [07:40] it is actually bothering that in todays world, where everyone claims to care about the environment, they throw away perfectly usable devices full of rare earth materials due to lack of software support or percieved age [07:42] @rogieroudshoorn [it is actually bothering that in todays world, where everyone claims to care abo …], There is something ironic when someone tweets from an iPhone about global warming and I know for a fact that iPhone is 2 years away from being pulled out of a massive heap of garbage in a third world country and the gold melted out of [07:42] it in the most crude way possible while the rest is tossed back in the massive heap and everyone standing around is inhaling toxic chemicals. #imhelping [07:44] But UT seems to be able to help that. Although I don't see the Kelsie's of the world ever adopting Linux phones. [07:47] well, look at linux on the desktop - it's perfectly fine, but at 1% [07:48] @rogieroudshoorn [well, look at linux on the desktop - it's perfectly fine, but at 1%], Hey now, go easy, it gained a whopping .8% over the last few years. 1.8% now. Or at least according to Gardener on YouTube it did. I did not fact check that. [07:51] Is there a way to change the stock user password on UT? It might be the GSI I installed but the option just isn't there. Can it be done through terminal? [07:53] didn't you get a setup-your-phone wizard at the start to guide you? [07:53] @rogieroudshoorn [didn't you get a setup-your-phone wizard at the start to guide you?], Yeah but it never asks for a password. Just have to use the stock phablet password [07:54] odd - on my OP6 (and the BQ before) password equals digit code [07:55] even on the GSI version of the OP6 [07:55] Strange. On the v9 GSI installer I flashed it did ask me, on the v10 installer I found, which works way better, it doesn't. [07:56] you can change unlock code under settings -> about -> developer mode at least [07:56] it's actually in `Settings > Security & privacy > Locking & Unlocking >Lock Security` [07:57] you should be able to select there what kind of lock you want [07:58] yeah it lets me select Passphrase but doesn't ask me to change the stock one. [07:59] @Danfro [Just had a look myself. This is World pack difference: "Special offer for users …], As far as Canada goes I've been advised by another resident who purchased the phone early on that our customs agency doesn't levy import duty on phones- so in this country that pack is just a straight up discount, and appreciated during thes [07:59] e financially tough COVID times.

[08:05] yeah, definitely there should be a direct way of doing it [08:05] file a feature request 😄 [08:09] Lol, it will be the idiot proof feature.

Could you please advice why?], All of the Operating Systems for the Pinephone are still in development (betas, alphas), none of them are “stable”. Im Ubuntu Touch, there are a lot of things that don’t work, like the camera, torchlight, headsets with calls. The WiFi and Bluetooth antennas require constant reboots to function. Las [08:46] tly, there are a lot of bugs still being identified, like the one that the previous replier mentioned about an SMS causing a phone reboot. The Pinephone software isn’t ready yet as a daily driver, so you should definitely try another phone if you want something you can just use. [08:55] @Javacookies [this seems to be a good list that supports it … https://en.everybodywiki.com/List_ …], usb 3.1 gen 2 support charging and OTG at the same time?

Electronic devices are definitely being discarded way to quickly and without reason. It actually irritates me that people will just throw away a phone they’ve had for less than a year just to buy the newest model. L [09:00] ike I’m here with a 2013 Nexus 5 with UT, and a 2014 FirePhone with LOS still working and being used; and you’re complaining that you need to swap your 7 month old Galaxy Note or iPhone because the new model came out?

I just happened to visit the site trough another open source project site.Thought would helpful in attracting developers to Ubuntu touch ecosystem through bounty program. [15:20] @Schmuel [Has anyone tried the PhonePad with UbuntuTouch and can report if it works and is …], it claims to have HDMI input too, so even if the USB-C video input isn't Slimport, it should be possible I guess to use a Slimport adapter to a probably micro-HDMI cable for input to the screen. They claim it can be used with anything that has HD [15:20] MI out too, so it shouldn't only work with DisplayLink or whatever custom app might be required to stream android/iOS to it [15:21] @Sanath [What are your thoughts on registering Ubuntu touch on issuehunt ( https://issueh …], i don't think it would balance with the amount of work we'd have to do in maintaining yet another list of issues and dealing with the interactions people trying to get bounties [15:23] @dohbee [it claims to have HDMI input too, so even if the USB-C video input isn't Slimpor …], 👍 [15:29] @Javacookies [and I wish Esc for back will be standardize on UT. Helpful when navigating with …], it looks like this may be a bit difficult to implement in uitk, but in qqc2 where you have to manually add the button to each page, assigning a shortcut using `StandardKey.Cancel` works well [15:30] or you can use `[StandardKey.Back, StandardKey.Cancel]` to get both `Alt+Left` and `Esc` to work [15:37] I can’t get Libertine to work on Nexus 5. It just kinda stays building the container and then it just stops. Is there anyway to get this working? [15:47] libertine can be really finicky … there was a time, the container builds like 6 hours and it was a broken container LOL … but my last try was only for 30 mins and it was successful for real [15:48] @dohbee [or you can use [StandardKey.Back, StandardKey.Cancel] to get both Alt+Left and E …], oh cool [15:48] @dohbee [it looks like this may be a bit difficult to implement in uitk, but in qqc2 wher …], yeah, it's quite easy to implement it manually on qqc2. … having it in UITK would be good though since it'll already take effect on apps that use UITK and page components. Maybe I can take a look on this in the future. === lejocelyn_ is now known as lejocelyn [16:55] Svetlana Burnett was added by: Svetlana Burnett [18:16] PereiraEdson1966 was added by: PereiraEdson1966 [18:26] Lоок!!! - https://bit.ly/2MCxYgz … Мusк рubІіshеd thаt hе bought Віtсоіn аnd оrgаnіzеd a gіvеаwау!!

[18:57] or just select `Never` in system settings lock timeout settings [18:58] then set it back to what you prefer after libertineis set up [18:58] [Edit] then set it back to what you prefer after libertine is set up [19:01] or someone add logic to prevent screen lock while libertine is doing something 😛 … same approach as normal apps can be used right? [19:15] really it shouldn't depend on the screen being locked or not [19:21] (Photo, 720x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/2I2yOGvT.png It finally worked! Thank you Steven & Rodney for your help. [19:23] @NotKit [https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/mobile-config-firefox], Has anyone tried this under Libertine with Ubuntu Touch yet? [19:24] It looks quite promising. [19:37] @By brian All rights reserved [Any idea of we can run Firefox esr], My attempt to get a Firefox 78 ESR deb built for arm64 installed earlier today into my Volla failed - both via gui and via terminal. I couldn't get Palemoon 29 to install either. [19:40] @TartanSpartan [Has anyone tried this under Libertine with Ubuntu Touch yet?], will see if there are any built deb's there and if so will try and install [19:47] .... ok, that page just links to source code and instructions to build. Would this be possible to build it into a click? Or just deb's? [19:50] should be possible but i guess the aforementioned instructions don't apply directly [19:51] @dohbee [should be possible but i guess the aforementioned instructions don't apply direc …], I really need to learn how to build clicks myself. I don't really have any coding experience though - how difficult is it for a noob to figure this out from the current docs? [19:51] i am perhaps not a good judge of difficulty for that :) [19:53] ive never made a .click either but ive made just about every other distro's package type... admittedly never anything as complex as firefox [19:54] Yeah - likely the variable in potential denseness of the noob asking that question is impossible to assess. :P So many things to learn, so little time. [19:55] a firefox .click would be amazing though [19:55] It certainly would be nice to have this version of Firefox available in UT. The versions of Geary and Lollypop from the Phosh project look nice as well. [19:55] especially that mobile config version hehe [19:55] how would it run on mir though? [19:55] or would it go via xmir [19:56] My main wish list for arm64 apps is UBsync at this point though - already missing having it on my Volla. [20:04] If someone can build UBsync to arm64 I've got $100 I can PayPal them :) [20:05] [Edit] If someone can build a working UBsync to arm64 I've got $100 I can PayPal them :) [20:06] Wow [20:06] Lmao [20:08] @amyosx [Lmao], I would be happy to have you laugh your way to the bank $100 US dollars richer if you can build that app to arm64 :) (that is, if the lmao was directed at my post) [20:09] ... I think the current issue for those that have tried so far is that there are some armhf elements hard coded into it [20:10] ... although I have limited understanding of these things, so might have that wrong. [20:13] @TotalSonic [.... ok, that page just links to source code and instructions to build. Would t …], AFAICT the easiest thing would be to build out an armhf/arm64 deb and install in Libertine, perhaps with a couple of parameters changed so one could have both this "pseudo-mobile FF" and the standard one in the repo side by side for com [20:13] parison purposes. [20:13] But that's just a layman's best guess. [20:15] Yeah - building that to deb would be easier, just follow the directions. Can anyone confirm that they are able to install a downloaded deb into Libertine on an arm64 device currently? I don't know if my problem trying to do this is user error, or a bug in Libertine. [20:19] I was always able to either do a root shell in Libertine, or use the `libertine-container-manager` nomenclature to run a `dpkg -i (nameoffile.deb)` on it to install packages (in fact this was part of how I taught myself to install Tizonia). [20:23] (Photo, 1280x800) https://irc.ubports.com/0M9UD0xS.png [20:24] ok, will try that. [20:24] Not sure if the fact that this issue was closed with no feedback as to why is good or bad for us... [20:38] Libertine in Volla Phone (arm64): working (with some definite gui problems though) abiword, geary, gtick, medit, gthumb, mypaint, hardinfo, xournal. fails firefox 85 and 84, epiphany-browser [20:45] The only browser which work on my test is midori [20:45] (UT on volla also) [20:46] Chromium fails also [20:48] Dooble probably works, but its tiny on a phone screen, and you need an external keyboard for it, and it's old so about as secure as Internet Explorer these days. Will try Midori. [20:49] Chromium has never worked on any device via Libertine in my experience [20:49] recent versions of Firefox were working ok in armhf Libertine though [20:50] The app starts by the tabs crash in my case [20:50] @I am Me [The app starts by the tabs crash in my case], yup, same thing here [20:51] @TartanSpartan [AFAICT the easiest thing would be to build out an armhf/arm64 deb and install in …], I am also tempted to just manually tweak the Firefox `about:config` and see if that will let me reap the benefits. [20:51] [Edit] Libertine in Volla Phone (arm64): working (with some definite gui problems though) abiword, aisleriot, geary, gtick, medit, gthumb, mypaint, hardinfo, xournal. fails firefox 85 and 84, epiphany-browser [20:53] I can try it on my M10 running VIvid; I know it's not secure to use such an outdated version of Firefox, and some of these tweaks may not even have functionality due to the 6-year old codebase, but then I never use Firefox on this device for anything whereby security would be a consideration. [20:53] More likely it would pay off when I get to play with the Volla. [20:55] @NickSin is using Redmi 7a and Teleports crashes. Anyone here got it to work on that device? [20:55] @Flohack [20:56] Midori is pretty awful in Libertine - you need an external keyboard/mouse with it and it is about as slow as molasses.

This site says that Morph Browser is an old chromium for Android. Is this the user agent of the Morph Browser, or could this be a mixup of the site?

[21:51] Both phones on OTA-15. Seems to be a general bug... [21:52] OTA-15 Stable Sorry... [21:53] Hm. The update includes some fixes for new Qt5.12. I wonder if that causes problems on stable. [21:53] It shouldn't be offered to stable at all. [21:53] The framework has been updated [21:56] I thought qt 5.12 is for the upcoming OTA 16? [21:57] Yes. But it is already available on devel channel. [21:57] @Nicktl [I thought qt 5.12 is for the upcoming OTA 16?], I think Dalton is talking about the Dekko updates, as in that updates to that breaks compatability with Qt 5.9 which is currently on stable [21:58] That makes sense [21:58] rc too? [21:59] sure, why not. it's just updated weekly as opposed to daily [22:01] Not in all cases. If something breaks devel, RC updates are stopped until that is fixed.
