We’re currently talking to Alan Pope (Community Manager at Canonical, awesome lad) and if we’re lucky we will get some smart canonical devs working on that! But we’ll see that after the holidays…
I’m a proud new owner of a FP2, and reading up on threads in here, as wel as on the ubports forum and even discovering https://ut4fp.org/ (that’s you guys also, right?), I’m amazed and excited about all the progress!
I’m no programmer, but certainly a tinkerer willing to dig a little deeper and learn new things, and am not afraid of a terminal. if there’s anything i can do to help you along (and my self too, as soon as gsm works, i’m switching full to my UTFP2 ), like run tests and fetch logs, please let me know. If money helps, i may even have some of that too
for now i can see
it recognizes gps is on, but as of yet am not getting a location fix (tested with scopes, SensorsStatus and uNav)
it detects a SIM card in slot 1, not in slot 2 (do i need 2 SIM cards inserted for it to detect slot 2?) but doesn’t ask for the SIM PIN at start up, doesn’t allow me to activate the SIM at a later point, and doesn’t retrieve provider/carrier info. there is a section in system settings>privacy&security about SIM PIN, but i’m not sure if and what to do there?
-connecting external display works up to when [MSDisplayAdapter_24] says it’s connecting, and then Unity8 crashes. (this bit is outside of your scope of interest i guess)
Hi Ubuntu Touch gang! I’d like to draw your attention to this topic:
It would be great to see your work at the next European Fairphoners Community Trip to Amsterdam in 2017. If you can make it, please post in that topic.
Thanks for the video, it looks promising!
Did you shoot it with another Fairphone? It looks like there is a problem with the focus, as reported on several Fairphones (including mine):
Nice job, the Ubuntu Touch OS is now able to make calls with FP2 phone
Perhaps I’m too impatient, but does the new image is already available? On the seafile depo the last system.img is 2016-12-22 so anterior to M. Gripsgard great announcement !
I really like the layout and look of the Ubuntu Touch. But I was wondering how the data security of Ubuntu touch is compared to e.g. Android, Cyanogenmod etc. Would be really happy if someone could enlighten me
first of all thank you very much for the great work you have done.
I’m planning to flash ubuntu on my FP2 this weekend but I wanted to ask: is the data working in 4G?
Moreover I saw on ubports that the GPS is not working and I was wondering if there are plans to make it available in the future.
Hy together,
sounds great to have ubuntu touch on the fairphone, but my installation failed.
I got ubuntu running, what I see running top. but exept “Fairphone powerde by andoid” nothing else running on the screen.
What has been my mistake?
