[/QUOTE]boot to stock Android on your phone.

Connect your phone on the desktop through usb ( USB debugging activated ).

On the Network setting on the phone, choose to tether you net through USB ( just to test if you get your desktop connected to internet through your phone).

Now on the desktop go to : Network Indicator → Edit Connections

Then choose to add a new Connection ( choose MobilBroadband ) and go on ( Note that the name you choose here for your connection is the you have to give when setting Ubuntu touch, that is the famous <connection> from the description I posted). I suppose now that you have an Internet Flat, so choose the option "pay per MB" when ask .

as for the APN , you could see what your android use from your device : Settings → More ( from the network part ) → Mobile Network → Access Point ( APN)

when done , try to connect to internet on the desktop, it should get connected and could open a webpage just to confirme ( works by me :) )

Sorry for my bad english.[/QUOTE]

So I connected to the internet through my phone fine while on adnroid.

I can't seem to find APN settings in android for some reason. I did find this though about APN settings:

LTE Access Point Name (APN) Definitions

vzwims

Used for connections to IMS services. Required for TXT messaging.

vzwadmin

Used for administrative functions.

vzwinternet

Required for general Internet connections.

vzwapp

Required for PDA data service

vzwcf

Used for connections that must be routed through content filtering.

xx.vzwentp

Used for connections to mobile private networks.

Note 'xx' would be replaced by the enterprise MPN identifier.

xx.vzwstatic

Used for static IP connections.

Note 'xx' would be replaced by the appropriate static IP pool identifier.

I'm not sure which one to use. When I setup the connection in ubuntu desktop I get three options, vzwims, vzwinternet and vzw app. Which one do I use?

By the way, your english is fine. I understand perfectly.

Thanks
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Sorry for the late, choose the vzwinternet

Hello Friends, here the weekly summary again :
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
GSM only

So Ricardo Salveti confirmed that the 3g connection is for GSM only...for now.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
that is why I asked about the particularity of a Verizon Device :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
Its a Verizon gnex what else would you need to know?
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Did actually you success on connecting to internet with Ubuntu through your Phone ?

If not, is it because you have Verizon Gnex ?

Then what is different between Verizon GNex and other GNex , say Retail GNex ? I'm just curious here :)

The key is, I'm not living in the US so I don't know if a Verizon GNex is a GSM model or not. It would help other Verizon GNex owners here to hold out of it now and simply wait .
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
No I couldn't get it to connect but, thanks for the help though. nickman529 seems to have gotten CDMA working on his Sprint Gnex (toroplus). Hopefully we can get something going from there.

The Verizon Gnex is CDMA not GSM.

What would we wait for? All the devs working on this are doing it for the GSM models. If the CDMA users wait we'll never get it.
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
This way works for me, but after half day testing Ubuntu (which has an amazing potential) Ive one back to Android, notification, all apps in Lens as you already said and Whatsapp are really needed for me.

Anyway, when I have installed terminal in Ubuntu Touch, How can I upgrade core-apps with last improvements? How I have to upgrade the system to a new nightly?

Thanks a lot man!
[Ubuntu Touch General] gasparzim:
There's whosthere, but I have no idea how to install it...
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
I know but I think this app is not for daily use yet, is in develpment so is impossible to use whataspp daily.
[Ubuntu Touch General] emissary:
Wow installed back android as my USB ports are messed up and I can't install the core apps
[Ubuntu Touch General] ninjatalon:
Went back to android until things get a bit more stable. The most annoying thing for me was that I had to restart my phone constantly (every 2hrs). The screen lock would freeze up half way through sliding. I also needed to see my signal strength for work related reason, as well as the battery drain was a thumbs down. Internet was fine although no HSPA support, I didn't mind turning it on through terminal. Terminal was also a great tool after the gsm support was built-in as I could update without having a computer to update it.
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
I agree, does anybody know if we can make a backup of Ubuntu Touch as if it were other Android Rom and then restore it when some update come?
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
Yes you can, I've done it.
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
I'm pretty disappointed that the cdma users dont get a working version of Ubuntu Touch. I've been waiting and looking forward to being able to use it, oh well. I guess they dont give an ish about the US users.
[Ubuntu Touch General] HereticSins:
Development takes time. Be patient.
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
This was Tony Espy reply on Ricardo Salveti Post.

Tony Espy - Canonical's Product Strategy Systems Team

There is currently no support for CDMA devices in Touch, and it's not on our current roadmap.

That said merge proposals are always welcome if someone in the community wants to take this on...

[Ubuntu Touch General] Nasaris:
Great

Very exciting news and will the supported devices increase beyong the nexus devices (official support)?
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
It sucks but the big CDMA carrier here in the US is Verizon and they don't really have any phones with unlocked boot loaders. It is for this reason that I got a Nexus 4 when my contract ended and went with T-Mobile.
[Ubuntu Touch General] cctoro:
Whsy network are you on? Are you GSM or CDMA?
[Ubuntu Touch General] IconRunner:
File a bug report. Probably just a maths error in the code.
[Ubuntu Touch General] emissary:
As much as I like Ubuntu touch i will wait till an email client and easy 3g access to be available and push notifications but so far I like where it's heading
[Ubuntu Touch General] bobo1337:
+1 and at least whatsapp
[Ubuntu Touch General] p4rot:
I don't know if I'm the only one but the new saucy build (June 12) doesn't work, all i get is black screen and no boot.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ojdon:
If previous builds have worked for you before then it might just be some sort of regression as they are moving packages from raring to saucy. Try again in the next few daily builds, if the problem persists then file a bug report. :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
I will give a try tomorrow on my Nexus and the I will tell you. I want 3g and chance to make calls and receive them by an easy way, I supposed these are not easy point, but they are needed in order to make Ubuntu Touch as a daily driver. Once people are in there, there will be much more reports and feedback
[Ubuntu Touch General] balu92:
It's already known! Fix on the way!
[Ubuntu Touch General] p4rot:
June 13 build also doesn't work for grouper.
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
I put the saucy-13 build on my Nexus 7 and it's working.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
I hope we will get the summary this week, since I can't try it now because there is building error when compiling the image for the Razr XT910.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Hey all, here some news about unity 8 on Ubuntu touch :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Hey friends, here ist this weekly summary , enjoy the summary :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] sherincal:
Ugh, I tried to, but I couldn't read it out:

Mir is not yet in the nightly releases, right?
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
Its only for the 13.10 builds, which the display manager doesn't work yet.
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
Correct, the daily device images still use SurfaceFlinger. There will be an experimental Mir+Unity8 session available on Ubuntu 13.10 desktops though.
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
Hi Michael, when are we going to be able to turn on with one click Data connection and making and receiving calls? I see you all are working really hard, is there any specific date that you think all users could switch to Ubuntu Phone as a completely daily driver?

Thanks!
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
Making and receiving calls already works on the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 images that we provide. The UI for enabling mobile data is being worked on, but I don't have a timeframe for when it might be done.
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
Curious because I have Galaxy Nexus and last times I tried to make calls it didnt work at all. Y tried it some weeks ago. Any suggestion?
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
hey all here again the weekly summary, no many thing on it this time but it is have than having nothing to read :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] IconRunner:
[MENTION=2101197]mhall[/MENTION], I assume you work for Canonical? What's the eta for getting phone and sms working on non-nexus devices? There are (or rather, were) a ton of devs looking to use this OS. Until phone and sms are working they can't do anything. Hard to work on a phone when you can't leave the rom on for more than an hour or so. You guys are losing a ton of devs and hype because of this. I don't know how to report this to the right people, but this is something that needs to be fixed ASAP if you don't want to lose the community.

Hype is already dying, please don't kill the OS with stupid planning. Ubuntu Phone could be so awesome.
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
Can't wait to see saucy builds booting on my nexus 7 :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] gazhead:
Uuh plz no ETA requests to devs
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
Saucy builds have been working on the Nexus 7 for a while now
[Ubuntu Touch General] eng.stk:
MultiROM included? on Nexus 7 saucy i tried, but no boot... precise builds work nice
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
I've never tried it with MultiROM, we only test it as a single install. Do you have any more information that could help identify what's causing the failure?
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
Same, and I'm not sure how to obtain a logcat from MultiROM. For me Ubuntu Touch 13.10 boots into a black screen.
[Ubuntu Touch General] emissary:
Tried Ubuntu touch today and its coming good but it seems as if it needs a lot of work as even though more stuff are added the essentials are missing but settings menu looks good
[Ubuntu Touch General] eng.stk:
Tried today saucy preinstalled for grouper on MultiROM and it stucks on google logo.

raring monthly-06 build work, ubuntu 13.04 desktop also. I use the same setup for both install using this guide

EDIT: It's working now with saucy ubuntu-touch-preview/daily-preinstalled/20130702/, I was using image from ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/.

[MENTION=5301536]mhall119[/MENTION] What's the diference between ubuntu-touch-preview and ubuntu-touch channels?
[Ubuntu Touch General] mhall119:
ubuntu-touch-preview is Android base system with an Ubuntu chroot, which is what we've been running since the images were first released.

ubuntu-touch is an Ubuntu base system with Android in an LXC container (what we're calling a "flipped" image) which is where we are transitioning to.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Helloy Friends, here is the Ubuntu Touch Summary week 26 :
[Ubuntu Touch General] gasparzim:
- Network Manager now automatically enables the data connection.

Does that mean... 3G data at last?
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
More than likely GSM only though, for now.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Yes, NetworkManager activate now by Default the connection. but there is a discussion going on as to whether Network Manager should by default Activate the 3G connection since there is some people wo don't have a Flatrate. I have to say I hate this behavior on Android ( Jelly Bean 4.1.2)
[Ubuntu Touch General] macpherson1999:
What Network Manager is? I mean, an application or just an option in setting menu?
[Ubuntu Touch General] pajn:
3G is GSM
[Ubuntu Touch General] gasparzim:
I was about to say, cool, now I only need whatsapp! But then saw whosthere is not going to happen anymore...
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
I'm fully aware, hence I said only gsm instead of the CDMA.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Network Manager is the app that manage any connections on Ubuntu and many Linux Distributions.

you access it the network menu.
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
doing some test, it looks great !
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
I wish backgrounds and accounts worked. :p

Hello guy , it seems other Ubuntu Touch Team are taking the path of the weekly Summary, here are those for System Settings:

I post it here since I think I is better to have all the update from one place. but it if you think we should have a separate topic for the app update, then let me know and go ahead to create the appropriate topic :p
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
Buggy, but as of today camera app for nexus 7 is working. :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] bobo1337:
Guys do u know is there any way to have something like multi rom on nexus 7? So i can have ubuntu and android? Thanks
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
Does anybody know, if the desktop mode will be enabled on other devices than the ubuntu edge?
[Ubuntu Touch General] Findee:
It is a feature of Ubuntu Touch which will only be available on high end Ubuntu Touch smartphones.

It is a key feature of Ubuntu Touch, and as the Edge may not ever be released and made, they wouldn't just cancel the feature as a result.
[Ubuntu Touch General] Master_josh:
beautifll

i think i want this :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] sebbo90:
after watching the videos on the edge phone funding website i have to say i would love to give ubuntu for android a go on my nexus 4. I wonder if they will ever release it for the nexus
[Ubuntu Touch General] ryde_razr:
Hello , here the week's summary :
[Ubuntu Touch General] ima.monstaaa:
The Nexus 4 is one of the original supported devices. The developer preview is already available for the Nexus devices and will probably be one of the first to receive the official release as well.
[Ubuntu Touch General] Findee:
No more recent weekly summaries?
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
With the latest update Ubuntu Touch on my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 is much more fluid!

Even with five or more apps open it doesn't begin lagging. Maybe they support now ram management.

I have updated via Terminal:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

You need this ppa to get the updates: https://launchpad.net/~phablet-team/+archive/ppa

How's battery life compared to android?
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
On my Galaxy Nexus it is worse. I try to figure out why (I think it has something to do with deep sleep).

On my Nexus 7 I get 3 hours screen on time (on Android I get 5-6 hours) so it is worse too.

The positive thing is that it gets better every week. ;)

PS: Since yesterday Ubuntu Touch is my daily driver and it works pretty good.
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
Recently with an fstrim script I've used and a couple sysctl tweaks I've gotten great battery life and sleep on my Nexus 7.
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
Could you share the tweaks, please? Or can you remember what to put into the scripts?

Btw. has anybody figured out how I can change the icons?

Is ist just replacing them in /usr/share or do I have to do something different?
[Ubuntu Touch General] payas0:
im sorry if this might sound stupid but where can i find the latest flashable zips of Ubuntu Touch ? can somebody link me ?

and oh, does flashing it over 4.3 has got any issue or something ? thanks.
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
Here you can find the latest zips: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/

Flashing over 4.3 should give you no issues. But wipe /system before flashing.
[Ubuntu Touch General] blmvxer:
I'll share the speed tweaks. And yes I know how to change the icons. I'll send you a link for both later today. :) maybe we can write a all in one mod app together. :)
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
This would be great. But I have to learn programming with Ubuntu SDK first.

I'm also interested in porting Ubuntu Desktop Themes to Ubuntu Touch so we can explore the freedome of Linux on our phones. ;)
[Ubuntu Touch General] sebbo90:
The only thing stopping me using this as my daily driver is the lack of a signal bar
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
Yes, that's really confusing.

I don't think it's necessary to fill a bug report!?
[Ubuntu Touch General] sebbo90:
I hope it's being worked on. Its OK bit of you travel alot its annoying now knowing when you have signal or it is bad
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
The icons are included into the Ubuntu Theme but we the indicator seems to not being implemented.

I think that this indicator will not come until November this year...
[Ubuntu Touch General] davjan:
How about using Ubuntu touch as daily rom? I used Ubuntu this saterday and sunday, I like it, but i am not sure about battery life and daily use

Anyone use Ubuntu daily and can tell more about battery

And mayby some must have apps or tweaks?

Thx in advance
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
I can tell you two more things about my battery life.

1. If you have the screen most of the time on, the battery life is good, but sometimes if you switch the screen off, you will have a huge battery drain

2. If you can charge your device at work or in your car once a day, you should have no problems; I get around 2-3 hours of on screen time

I have created a thread with my tweaks and tipps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2400276 (but I think you read it already ;))

I hope other users will add their tweaks to the thread so we can all mod Ubuntu Touch like Android.

There are not really any must have apps because all the apps we can get are in the coreapps ppa. :(

I hope other users will answer your question but on xda there are not really many people using Ubuntu Touch.

PS: I don't think I'll switch back to Android. For me Android is too boring. Everywhere blue and grey and everything works. :D
[Ubuntu Touch General] davjan:
Yeah read your thread already, used some stuff Will flash Ubuntu back this week and use it longer time, really like it more than Android, just like you say, Android is too boring

Do you know other forums or sites about Ubuntu touch?
[Ubuntu Touch General] :
The only other ones I've found with active people are http://ubuntuforums.org/ (no Touch forum) and http://askubuntu.com/ (every Ubuntu Touch question gets closed).

I have tried using the IRC chat (look at the Touch wiki for the link; I'm too lazy to look for it ;)), but no one has said anything for more than two hours.

What you should definetly do is subscribing to the mailing list.

Oh EDIT: Here is the subforum for Ubuntu Touch: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=426 . I think I should sign up there because this looks really interesting.

EBay app? Works

Note pad... Kinda

Wireless settings

Brightness settings

Gallery photo edit.. Auto enhance works

I'll play around and keep posting what else works

By the way. I'm dual booting stock android 4.2.2 and Ubuntu touch daily with multi ROM so I can update daily without giving up used of my android tablet
[Ubuntu Touch General] gh1234:
The release notes contain a Upgrade part:

"Some parts of the image can’t currently be upgraded, so it is best to deploy a full updated image. Some individual apps can be updated with apt, though. First add the phablet-team ppa (launchpad.net/~phablet-team/+archive/ppa) to /etc/apt/sources.list. Then run the following command with root permissions to update apps:

# apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"

I didn't test myself if the upgrade process goes smooth but it seems to be incomplete sometimes...

But I guess this will be fixed in the future :)
