**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 11 03:00:01 2019 Jun 11 03:21:46 @Swapnil Kulkarni [Yes i know but i want to repurpose it so we dont have lite smartphone os?], You can port... but I feel it's not worth the effort, also you need to find device sources Jun 11 04:49:00 GT-I9000 is being mainlined, but it takes a while https://github.com/PabloPL/linux Jun 11 06:26:02 Litol manki Spot was added by: Litol manki Spot Jun 11 07:53:00 Wow can't believe the device is still alive Jun 11 08:22:19 yeah, I was also surprised Jun 11 10:52:27 Dushan Janeski was added by: Dushan Janeski Jun 11 10:54:29 Hey guys! I wanted to port and install Ubuntu Touch on my huawei P10 lite, but I am unable to get an unlock code for the bootloader, nor on the internet or by contacting huawei about it(they removed it due to some EU laws from their website and do not provide the codes via e-mail either. Can I do something about it? Jun 11 10:55:52 No Jun 11 10:57:16 I mean well other then a) bruteforce unlock code or b) keep poking Huawei, you can't do much. Jun 11 10:57:37 So there is no way what so ever? Damn such a shame... Can I port the OS for other rooted devices I have? I mean, is there performance requirements for ubuntu touch? Jun 11 10:57:47 hmmm brute unlock? how does that work? Jun 11 10:57:48 If they are not providing codes to some regulations I'd say you have a no luck at all. Jun 11 10:58:58 Dushan some Huawei phones have unlock-go method in bootloader Jun 11 10:59:04 but idk if it's still there Jun 11 10:59:07 EU regulations? [source needed] Jun 11 10:59:27 I'd suggest picking a different phone next time Jun 11 11:00:50 Uhm yeah @leinir, that's what their website said about unlocking(not suported since feb this year I believe) and they don't give codes via e-mail anymore... I inherited the phone in april so yeah,great performance but bad luck on that Jun 11 11:01:18 I'll google that now @K31j0 Jun 11 11:02:26 @Dushan Janeski [Uhm yeah @leinir, that's what their website said about unlocking(not suported si …], i hope you will pardon me for not entirely trusting that statement (not yours, i'm sure it does say as much on their sire, i've just heard "EU says bad thing" too often in the last couple of years to just accept that at face value) Jun 11 11:03:00 Other vendors still have unlockable devices Jun 11 11:03:08 so that EU thing is a fallacy Jun 11 11:03:09 @K31j0 [Other vendors still have unlockable devices], Precisely that Jun 11 11:03:31 Yeah, I might have to switch do a different device if this keeps going Jun 11 11:03:55 I mean Jun 11 11:04:01 I'd just sell it if you have no use for it Jun 11 11:04:04 and get something different Jun 11 11:04:15 Whatever the reason for Huawei's decision to remove that, though, totally sucks... Jun 11 11:04:37 Yes, good call, if they won't let you unlock it, find another device that you can, and sell this one to someone who cares less about the openness thing :) Jun 11 11:05:00 yeah i was so happy i can change a dumb looking os for something better,either lineage or ubuntu(preferebly ubuntu)and i got stuck in a loop Jun 11 11:05:25 Pocho Perez was added by: Pocho Perez Jun 11 11:07:07 I can port it for a lower end samsung that I have rooted and unlocked,but it only has 1.5gb ram,idk if that'll be enough Jun 11 11:07:11 Well their intention is to datamine on you while giving you a mediocore android skin to use, I guess Jun 11 11:07:19 so I understand the intention behind that decision Jun 11 11:07:59 @Dushan Janeski [I can port it for a lower end samsung that I have rooted and unlocked,but it onl …], Can't speak for utouch, but i know plamo happily runs on less than a gig (iirc full boot to idle desktop's about 400mb) Jun 11 11:07:59 I things he's talking about the EU regulations 2014/53/EU that forces radio equipment vendors to lock down their devices for running custom software. Jun 11 11:08:06 [Edit] I think he's talking about the EU regulations 2014/53/EU that forces radio equipment vendors to lock down their devices for running custom software. Jun 11 11:08:44 @degen [I think he's talking about the EU regulations 2014/53/EU that forces radio equip …], I just checked,it was in 2018 when they did that Jun 11 11:09:05 @leinir [Can't speak for utouch, but i know plamo happily runs on less than a gig (iirc f …], Is it as good as utouch? Jun 11 11:09:24 @degen [I think he's talking about the EU regulations 2014/53/EU that forces radio equip …], Hmm... that's a massive misinterpretation (it literally just means the radio chipset), but i guess they might hand pick their interpretations because business reasons or whatever Jun 11 11:10:17 @Dushan Janeski [Is it as good as utouch?], Depends on your purpose, i guess - it's a solid base, but if you expect to use it as a daily driver, perhaps not :) Jun 11 11:10:19 @leinir [Hmm... that's a massive misinterpretation (it literally just means the radio chi …], Nah it was about the bootloader unlock codes for installing custom os on the phones Jun 11 11:12:38 I mean Jun 11 11:12:59 You can't load any other modem firmware than vendor's already so I don't know what's the point of that regulation even Jun 11 11:14:37 And Huawei's response is even weirder Jun 11 11:15:08 @K31j0 [You can't load any other modem firmware than vendor's already so I don't know wh …], I don't know if they do any cryptographic checks on it, but the OsmocomBB project did it with some old Motorola phones Jun 11 11:15:27 Modern modem firmware is quite complicated Jun 11 11:15:48 @Dushan Janeski [Nah it was about the bootloader unlock codes for installing custom os on the pho …], That's what i mean, though... the bit they're referring to would be point 16, which is about the /radio/ equipment, which is unaffected by unlocking the main device Jun 11 11:16:25 @degen [I don't know if they do any cryptographic checks on it, but the OsmocomBB projec …], The keyword is old Jun 11 11:18:30 i'm sure someone is going to yell China at some point, because it's Huwaei doing this, but i'd perhaps just note that they're a huge company, with a big interest in getting their infrastructure hardware accepted for use all over the place, and overinterpreting certain legislation relating to that would be good for business, especially cons Jun 11 11:18:30 idering current accusasions being fired in their direction (or, in summary: money is nice) Jun 11 11:19:11 @K31j0 [And Huawei's response is even weirder], but still, you know, this :P Jun 11 11:20:23 @K31j0 [The keyword is old], Keyword? Jun 11 11:20:51 @degen [Keyword?], I mean these phones are so old that nobody had a way to flash them back in the day and that was basically security by obscurity Jun 11 11:21:38 Such a shame, I really wanted to get utouch running on the phone Jun 11 11:21:48 @K31j0 [I mean these phones are so old that nobody had a way to flash them back in the d …], Yes, but I don't know if the security of loading the firmware on modems did even improved Jun 11 11:21:50 But hey, if vendors weren't so bad and upstreamed everything, this project wouldn't exist xD Jun 11 11:21:57 Nobody even made custom modem firmware anyway Jun 11 11:33:09 @Dushan Janeski [Is it as good as utouch?], utouch works reasobably smooth on 1 gig of ram and about half a gig zram Jun 11 11:35:41 @K31j0 [But hey, if vendors weren't so bad and upstreamed everything, this project would …], heck they would even benefit security wise if they did 😂 Jun 11 11:37:32 Yeah, but they are stupid and then we need to clean up after them and we can't fix everything anyway xD Jun 11 11:48:02 Does utouch run android apps by default or would I need an emulater for it? Jun 11 11:49:48 It has anbox, but idk about its status Jun 11 11:50:47 Oh cool,that should do well i suppose... I use android apps for reading manga and playing albion online so having those apps is a must 😁 Jun 11 17:47:35 gaming would be problematic with current state of Anbox if it is something demanding, so just go with Android if you need Android to be honest Jun 11 18:04:00 @K31j0 [Yeah, but they are stupid and then we need to clean up after them and we can't f …], ikr xD Jun 11 18:29:24 touch not working how to enter password to run kwinwrapper Jun 11 18:29:25 (Photo, 960x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/dIJ02l8D.png Jun 11 18:30:03 @SALPHA8506 [touch not working how to enter password to run kwinwrapper], ? Jun 11 18:30:52 https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/7QZT2CGbTT/ Jun 11 18:36:40 What happened to rendering bug on some devices? Has anyone looked into it? Jun 11 18:48:35 @SALPHA8506 [], Use an OTG mouse Jun 11 18:52:05 i don't have otg Jun 11 18:52:51 you can make one, its fairly easy to do. unless youre reffering to the phone not having the otg capability Jun 11 21:42:05 So thanks to the wonderful @peat_psuwit charger mode is now fixed in halium ^^ enjoy your devices charging instead of booting Jun 11 21:44:14 s/halium/halium-boot/ Jun 11 21:44:32 [Edit] So thanks to the wonderful @peat_psuwit charger mode is now fixed in halium-boot ^^ enjoy your devices charging instead of booting Jun 11 21:44:35 yeah ^^ Jun 11 21:45:03 That is, effectively Ubuntu Touch only. Jun 11 21:45:11 si hybris boot affected as well? Jun 11 21:45:17 [Edit] is hybris boot affected as well? Jun 11 21:46:01 hybris-boot was never designed to boot into Android when charging, as Sailfish implements its own boot animation Jun 11 21:46:19 kk Jun 11 21:46:25 [Edit] hybris-boot was never designed to boot into Android when charging, as Sailfish implements its own charging animation Jun 12 00:55:38 Hi everyone, I have a 7-inch Tablet model samsung SM T116 3g I would like to know if it is possible to install Ubuntu touch on this device thanks in advance to all of you **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Jun 12 03:00:27 2019
