Take pictures in Ubuntu, than boot in android, go to data/media/0/multirom/roms/ubuntutouch and open pictures storage, than look permissions
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
Or the easiest way (install ubuntu 13.10 on your pc, right mouse button on selected file or folder and select properties, then under permissions set desired permission. Then copy via mtp, Ubuntu pc will recognise filesystem on phone and you will see few folders Documents Pictures ....)

I am encouraging everyone to try Ubuntu on their pc it is much easier than Windows for playing around with ports.:silly:
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
i get that but its strange why the first time i adb pushed the wallpapers everything was cool, and now it doesnt seem to work, they are inside the folder but galery app dont recognize them
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
What about file manager on phone? Can you see your files from file manager, see also the extension of files. I didn`t encountered such problems.
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
Yes on file manager i see them, all jpg files :( i had a great Blue background now i cant use it
[Nexus 5 General] 4I-I:
Did you try through settings/wallpaper?
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
Yeah it only shows some photos ive taken no pictures

Any way to disable vibration/haptic feedback everytime you touch the screen? This is my first time to use ubuntu os. Thank you.
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
As someone stated you should change permissions to read and write for owner, group and others for pictures you want to see in phone. I was able to recreate problem and fixed it with permissions set as above. it is easily done in Ubuntu but in Windows you could try from adb. Since adb is Linux cli you could use this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions

Use adb shell and try to cd to folder with pictures, use ls -l name_of_file.jpg to list file permissions of picture, then use sudo chmod o+x name_of_file.jpg to set permissions.
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
Thats a good sugestion, what i find strange is i reverted to 206 stable and ADB push works
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
Also r223 works.
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
after upgrading to 207 died again =S
[Nexus 5 General] abihakim:
Would love to flash thos rom. But i think it is beyond my understanding lol.

Hope it can run .apk as well soon!
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
to simplify i used the trwp and that tried again with comand line, chmod and still nothing inside the file explorer all the files have read and write status

I cant reproduce this bug. Running r233 just copied some wallpapers from my Ubuntu computer to Pictures folder on phone via mtp and confirm that wallpapers are copied and can change background. About your problem my friend I wil try to copy some pictures over adb from my Windows computer to phone and try to see if I get the same problem.:confused:
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
Tried to adb push some pictures from Windows, and pictures are not shown in gallery. However I have no problem in Ubuntu 13.10 with mtp, but with adb same **** as on Windows. Hope this helps.:eek:
[Nexus 5 General] Tyrany:
I reverted to 223 pushed all i wanted and then upgraded hehehe, not a solution but helps, kinda noticed ubuntu is a battery ***** hehehe

Yeah..I think sou d and battery are the only big problems right now, but as of now, I use Ubuntu if I do t need to worry about battery

Has enyone played with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/DualBootInstallation , aparently there is support for our phone look http://humpolec.ubuntu.com/latest/dualboot.sh . Will try this today, people behind this project updated Dualboot not so long ago https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg06840.html .:)
[Nexus 5 General] abihakim:
Ikr. Thats why i said "hope it can run .apk file, soon"

Ububtu spokesperson said that it is possible. But, ofc not now or something similar.
[Nexus 5 General] abtekk:
I have just re-read my message and realised I may have come across as a bit like I was annoyed or something, I apologise, that wasn't the case.

Canonical aren't aiming to get .apk's running, they are trying to make it possible to port apps over with ease.

sudo rights on Touch

Hello all and thanks for the detailed posts and hard work.

I just installed the 27 ROM version using MultiROM on myNexus 5 so everything's working nicely though I cannot figure out how to sudo using the terminal. The problem is it's asking for a password that I never actually had to choose when installing so anyone has a clue what the password might be or how to reset it ?

Regards
[Nexus 5 General] Echse27:
Password: phablet

Nexus 5 rocks!...
[Nexus 5 General] Gormsen:
Let us know if this works, though the say that 4.4 requires additional steps to get it working properly :)
[Nexus 5 General] Onysius:
Hi,

Thanks for the quick answer worked fine for enabling the sudo mode though when running in sudo su (root) I still cannot ls the "/" directory and cannot apt-get upgrade any idea why ? Maybe those command are not yet supported by this version of Touch.

Regards
[Nexus 5 General] haralampije2:
It installs on android side need more work with ubuntu images, needs more editing. I hope to have more time to play with this, I'll let you know.;)
[Nexus 5 General] Echse27:
You will destroy your multirom installation with the upgrade command, that's the reason why it's disabled, i think.

When you install the ut "nativ", it works fine...

With multirom you have to install the newest build to have the actual status...

Greetz, Echse...

I'm trying to sync my contacts with Google server, but following some guides, I'm not good to do it, it gave me error "no source", I think because, first of all, I have to install syncevolution, but giving sudo command, it ask me a password.

We have found the problem. Ubuntu Touch is based on CM 10.1/2. It need to rewrite all the driver. Hwcomposer is the problem with the base. So, the project is closed. Canonical has announced that Ubuntu Touch official for N5 will be released from end of Jan/start of Feb.

syncevolution --configure --template "SyncEvolution Client" syncURL=local://@google consumerReady=1 username= password= google-contacts addressbook

syncevolution --sync slow google-contacts

I just noticed that the download progress bar in the Update screen does not show any movement in the recent proposed builds. However, I left it for some time on the screen and after I unlocked an hour later, I had a dialogue asking me if I wanted to "Install and Restart". That means the update was downloaded but the progress bar is broken.

Are you facing the same issue?

Ok, those are valid reasons.

But you know when Cannonical said they released it officially for the N5 ?

No ? Of course not, this is a userbuild at this time.

Is this convergence or dual-boot?

Hello everyone! First i would like to praise the work of porting ubuntu to our nexus 5. I will be testing this out in my second nexus 5 (test device):D! Now to my question, is this the convergence canonical is talking about? Which we just plug in our phone to a "base" and it will automatically switch to ubuntu or is this a dual-boot? I ask this because i want to know if, in the future, we could make ubuntu into an "app" that when clicked Desktop ubuntu will load using some kind of paravirtualization or bare-metal virtualization (explained in ubuntu's page of Ubuntu For Android). My understanding is this is dual-booting meaning onces inside ubuntu touch we effectively "turn off" android.

Best regards :good:
[Nexus 5 General] beanaroo:
Hi! As far as I know, what you are referring to is known as Ubuntu For Android. This project hasn't officially been discontinued but development has come to a near stand-still. Ubuntu For Android is not related to Ubuntu Touch mobile OS. There is no docking into desktop mode. (That I am aware of)

Canonical's idea of "convergance" is having applications that scale to the device's display. Just like responsive web design. It has nothing to do with data spanning different devices. Maybe (probably) there is an hdmi-out desktop mode in the works for the next Unity+Mir.
