[01:18] <ubptgbot> <dohbee> @mintphin [Doing this so the About page shows correct values on Erfan's GSI.], not sure what isn't correct there, but afaik those devices aren't using system-image, which is probably related toit
[01:19] <ubptgbot> <mintphin> They should get variables from ro.product.vendor.model instead of ro.product.model
[01:19] <ubptgbot> <mintphin> Because ro.product.model is halium.
[01:20] <ubptgbot> <mintphin> In the GSI at least.

[02:51] <ubptgbot> <TartanSpartan> Sorry if tangentially off-topic, but so I flashed Lollipop 5.1 to my 16GB M10. This model was circa 2015, right?
[02:52] <ubptgbot> <TartanSpartan> Does anyone know if it can take Oreo 8, or is it only the newer 2018 model (32GB) which can do that? Not that it matters overly much, but yeah the ecosystem is very fragmented.
[02:55] <ubptgbot> <TartanSpartan> Hopefully someone has tried to flash 16GB with one of these Oreo images:

[02:56] <ubptgbot> <TartanSpartan> [Edit] Hopefully someone has tried to flash 16GB with one of these Oreo images and can provide insight:
[03:06] <ubptgbot> <TartanSpartan> Just verified, yes it does work! No need to stay on 5.1

And superfast :) The main thing I'm missing is full camera support. Taking pictures work fine but end up tilted sideways when saved. Video does not work

[11:33] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> (Video, 3s) https://irc.ubports.com/exw3twl9.mp4 would this behavior satisfy everyone? … news users will surely tap the screen if they wonder why the screen is empty 😄
[11:46] <ubptgbot> <per_sonne> That's not a problem.  … Default behaviour should be: left bar always on.  … Hides on app popping on.  … But for annoying guys like me: hiding when I don't need / want, by changing default setting. New users will always see the bar.
[11:48] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> sorry but I really don't see having a setting happen unless someone who likes it propose a PR 😅 … anyway, that video is just a quick hack. It has issues
[11:55] <ubptgbot> <per_sonne> Btw, I guess a Nokia C7 symbian is not supported for Ubtouch, right? It's not on the supported devices list.
[11:56] <ubptgbot> <per_sonne> Or is there a port going on somewhere?

[12:08] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> @per_sonne [Btw, I guess a Nokia C7 symbian is not supported for Ubtouch, right? It's not on …], I don't think there's even a port for a symbian phone. I think all are android devices.
[12:08] <ubptgbot> <Danfro> @Javacookies [<reply to media>], I guess quite some people would be very happy. I would wish it would open the drawer. 😁 Tjats why there can be no settings for everything.

[12:16] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> I believe 5-finger tap will open the launcher
[12:17] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> nope, it's 4 finger 😉
[12:20] <ubptgbot> <Danfro> @Javacookies [nope, it's 4 finger 😉], True, forgot about that. Just tricky to fit them all on the screen. 😎
[12:24] <ubptgbot> <matv1> @mateosalta [work in progress, a few bugs and i switched to xperia x performance, 3t cant tak …], That echo is weird cause I dont have that on the Oneplus 3.
[12:25] <ubptgbot> <matv1> In fact echos have been reported on and off since as long as i can remember on ut. Device independent. Personally ive experienced on the N5 and Pro5 at least
[12:27] <ubptgbot> <matv1> There have been numerous bug reports over the yrs that never seemed to fully nail the cause down
[12:28] <ubptgbot> <matv1> Which makes think there is something else at play apart from device specific causes
[12:49] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> OnePlus 3 looked good in the video … and I didn't know it has 6GM of RAM … I would have bought one without much thinking if only it supports wired display out
[12:51] <ubptgbot> <Javacookies> in comparison, for those who are excited to get their pinephone UBports edition, here's what you can expect from UT, more or less 😄  … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH3RbrwhNd8

[14:26] <ubptgbot> <Louis> What do you mean when you said "working well"?
[14:29] <ubptgbot> <Louis> I'm talking about the redmi 5 plus?
[14:55] <ubptgbot> <parasparihar5> @Louis [What do you mean when you said "working well"?], no i am talking abt redmi note 5 pro ... working well means cuz it's unofficial port made by a single dev ... almost everything is working performance battery life ... only camera is not working ... so they should have to upload it by officially but they don't ... I don't know
[14:55] <ubptgbot>  why ...
[14:56] <ubptgbot> <Louis> Oh OK 😅

[14:59] <ubptgbot> <Baking Soda, I Got Baking Soda> @Louis [And no one know if the redmi "Vince" work well?], Yes, I've been using it as a daily almost a month now. On it right now
[15:00] <ubptgbot> <Baking Soda, I Got Baking Soda> A casual reboot every few days helps speed things up, but it's pretty stable
[15:03] <ubptgbot> <Baking Soda, I Got Baking Soda> It's unofficial because they haven't ported the installer yet (honestly, the flashable zip is a million times better anyways). They're also working on porting a newer version of halium, so official support isn't really a priority atm
[15:17] <ubptgbot> <Louis> @Baking Soda, I Got Baking Soda [Yes, I've been using it as a daily almost a month now. On it right now], Oooh cool 😊
