[Ubuntu-phone] accessing native APIs from HTML5 app?

2016-09-14 Thread Christof Meerwald
Hi,

what would be the preferred way for an HTML5 app that needs access to
some native APIs like raw TCP sockets?

I had a quick look at Cordova, but the plugin API seems to be a
complete pain (for anything non-trivial).

So far I am leaning towards implementing and native WebSockets server
to proxy the TCP connection as a wrapper around webapp-container. Is
there any way to pass any information (like a local port number and
maybe an authentication token) to the HTML5 app on startup?

Any other options? If possible I want to avoid writing too much Ubuntu
Touch specific code.


Christof

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] something odd

2016-09-14 Thread Felipe De La Puente
Hi Wayne,

Based on your description and the bug report cited by Marcin, it looks very
likely to be a hardware design issue of the BQ M10 which makes the BT
communications (2.4GHz) to interfere with the wifi communications also
happening on 2.4GHz.

If someone could try with an android M10, then the hypothesis could be
discarded if the Android one behaves clearly better.

If you have the possibility to move your wifi to the new wifi bands (5GHz)
the problem should disappear.

Best Regards,
Felipe.

There is not an official statement but there are no ubuntu phones on the
market anymore. Plus the images for the "midori” device was 
pulled from the

image - server.



Regarding 'midori' device - could we get any official statement from
Ubuntu/Canonical team why it's pulled out from the server (project

there was image available to public without any restrictions?

Best regards,

I have no inside info here.

I remeber that the images of available devices where uploaded to the public 
image-server just a few days before the launch. I have no idea what 
happened to the midori device. There were leaks from China (I believe) that 
is was MX6 Ubuntu edition. Probably the launch didn't happen for a reason 
but I can only make guesses here.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Canonical branded phone?

2016-09-14 Thread Felipe De La Puente
I think I read somewhere that there were internal bugs at launchpad visible
only to canonical members... Even if I didn't read that it's not hard to
imagine.

Isn't it possible that they just moved the pre-release device images to a
private server?

If I made Canonical sign NDAs and suddenly I found myself reading posts
about my secret next project I would ask them to wipe out any source of
information leakage to comply with the signed NDAs...

Of course the code can still be a source of leakages, but they could also
have a private branch for this specific development... that needs to be
merged later into the main branch.

I also noted that the Final validation process of OTAs got longer since the
last OTA... could be associated to possible new devices under test?

Just crazy ideas that came to my head...

Best Regards,
Felipe.

Correct.  OpenGL is not available on Ubuntu Touch, iOS, Android, etc.

If you want to use graphics acceleration on mobile devices, you must use 
OpenGL|ES.  OpenGL|ES is supported by most
modern toolkits including Qt and libSDL.  The last update to GLUT was over 16 
years ago, it is not a modern toolkit.

Anyway, I can't for sure say whether this happened due to an upgrade on
the phone or the server, because I can't remember last  I used the sync.

But since my laptop version of Evolution is still able to sync it
(although the sync on my laptop is configured in
the .local/share/evolution and not .local/share/syncevolution - maybe
that also makes a difference, I'm not fully fluent here), and my phone

Me neither, the E4.5 is a nice phone and their service is very good. I hope 
they will keep offering Ubuntu phones.

If bq can't deliver more dedicated Ubuntu phones right now, maybe they can 
provide us instructions and a tool to root and flash some of their current 
Android models.

I prefer to avoid the "run the Chinese exe you obtained from a Russian hacker 
site to root your Android and install a better os" approach. 
If I have to root and flash, I would rather do it with bq tools.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Canonical branded phone?

2016-09-14 Thread Marcin Xc
First of all the phone would have to work correctly. How are You expected to 
sell a phone where bluetooth doesn't work and which has problems with stupid 
sms sound notification? The ?memory? management isn't any better. Every few 
days I have to reboot cause no app wants to open.
Ubuntu Edge? It wouldn't fail if the campaign was started and ran correctly. If 
someone thought a little bit how a human beign thinks like. There were for sure 
many more thousand people LIKE ME who would give You these 500$. I really 
would. Why I wouldn't? Why so many people didn't? You could read it in Facebook 
comments and it was NOT a big problem. Ubuntu Edge really could succeed. All 
You developers forget that You work and create stuff for people. It's not just 
another soft-update for a robot in a VW factory. You just change something or 
start a campaign without smallest psycho-market skills that would give You a 
chance to succeed. If I wanted to change from GNOME2 to Unity I wouldn't give a 
smallest chance to lose users that switch to MATE etc. It is only a little bit 
of psychology and understanding the other human beign (not to be confused with 
the true meaning of the >Ubuntu< word:-( ).

 Subject: Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Canonical branded phone?
   
 Hi, I am glad to see a bit of discussion on this subject. Canonical did try to 
launch production of a phone on it's own with the Ubuntu Edge. But they are not 
the only ones who have tried to gather interest for this idea. When the crowd 
funding campaign for the Ubuntu Edge was launched, I believe Ubuntu/Canonical 
had the "edge" on the competition (if you'll excuse the pun). However, 
development has taken time, and the others have launched different variants of 
the idea. A couple of minutes of poking around the web today and I found 
Nexdock, Casetop Dock and Superbook. Then, of course, there is Microsoft's 
Continuum for Phones. So where does this leave the Ubuntu phone venture? I am 
seriously worried that before something lands properly, others will have 
flooded the market with similar products. 
  I really wish the Ubuntu phone the success it deserves, but at the moment, I 
have to admit the future looks a bit bleak. Maybe, we are just being kept a bit 
in the dark at the moment, and something is in store? Lets hope so! If I had 
had the programming skills, I would have contributed more. As it is, my 
contribution is mainly a bit of translating, unfortunately, but that's 
something at any rate. I applaud all who are contributing to the further 
development of Ubuntu Touch and the convergence concept and I wish you the best 
of success. I look forward to some news about what we can expect in the near 
future!

 Hi,
 
 I think canonical isn't searching oem's to sell ubuntu phones. I bet in the 
opposite... oem's are trying to convince canonical to sell ubuntu phones. For 
the moment, more work has to be done. UT isn't taking full advance of the 
capabilities of the current devices. But I agree that more devices Meizu MX4, 
Pro 5, M10,  e4.5 should be in stock. 
 
 This journey was explained in a Q.A session. First will be a very limited 
range of devices, then a second round.
 
 I bet next year that second round will begin.

 yes, it was called "Ubuntu Edge" and failed teh crowdfunding
 campaign...
 
 
 That was some time ago. Market changed, smartphones (low/mid) are cheaper. We 
don't need super-high-end phone. We need a phone that can be bought all the 
time (for now, we can't buy any phone (except second hand, etc.).
 And the most important thing - Canonical now have a lot more knowledge about 
phones than before. Maybe now some costs can be lower? In example OS is more 
completed (so software part should be cheaper) than few years ago.
 
  Crowdfunding campaign ver. 2? ;)

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Canonical branded phone?

2016-09-14 Thread Radics Geza
2) I meant mobiles (hardware), not the UT. So if no new mobile comes out in
every 3 month that does not mean anything.

1) I think there are ubuntu laptops in the same way there are ubuntu
phones. Dell ships project sputnik with XPS, pre-installed with ubuntu. If
you are saying Canonical branded hardware, they don't exist.
2) No, I don't think the improvement is slowing down. There are plenty of
good things on their way to ubuntu later this year. It takes time to refine
them. Is like passing from Android 1.0 to android 2.0. Earlier this year we
received convergence, ID fingerprint, usability impromevements... I rather
say, the improvement is getting better. It's true that sometimes we've some
regressions, but that's the way it is. Keep bringing new devices means,
more time and resources consumption, more testing, more cadency between
OTA's. For the moment, having a limited range of devices has a better
impact on developement.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Syncevolution upgrade? Broken owncloud carddav sync.

2016-09-14 Thread Louis Holbrook
I'm using ownCube 8.2.5. It's a bit old, I know, but the people
maintaining the server opine that it's more stable than subsequent
upgrades. I don't know...

Anyway, I can't for sure say whether this happened due to an upgrade on
the phone or the server, because I can't remember last  I used the sync.

But since my laptop version of Evolution is still able to sync it
(although the sync on my laptop is configured in
the .local/share/evolution and not .local/share/syncevolution - maybe
that also makes a difference, I'm not fully fluent here), and my phone
suddenly is not, it indicates it has something to do with a phone update
in the meantime - most likely the one in july.
