Comments
i think this issue is related or even the same as this one: #660 |
This is duplicate of #434, isn't it? |
yes I guess. |
there wasn't really an answer to my question. the instructions in the other issues aren't good explained for a noob like me and the instrucions finally didn't work right. |
The work for ubuntu touch support was stopped a while ago. Ubuntu Touch is 2015-05-26 17:02 GMT+02:00 argon-radio notifications@github.com:

I think, there are plenty of interested users in UbuntuTouch and a functional LOQUI app. Please do not bash the SDK... There must be more serious reasons against Ubuntu. I could provide you with a AQUARIS E4.5 device. |
The work was stopped basically because of missing testing resources. No one 2015-05-26 23:38 GMT+02:00 nephilim1973 notifications@github.com:

Please read my comment again: |
The thing is we are a decentralized team, so you could send the device to someone, but this would be the only person how would be able to work on ubuntu touch. Maybe @Gioyik is interested since he did the work in this last year... |
I will support you with 3 devices. My money, my risk. Deal ? |
oh well maybe let @aesedepece and @Gioyik comment on this before we decide anything. This would be a huge support for the project and I'm sure everyone of the team would appreciate it. But as you say, it's a risk. I can not tell you that actually someone has the time to work on this. We are all working on this application in our free time and I fear that you maybe provide devices that are barely to never used. Yes it's your money, but you still shouldn't waste it. |
Sounds like... "Hey man, nice try... but actually I wanna say, that it's senseless..." |
Does anyone actually know how much work needs to be done to get it working on Ubuntu Touch? I am assuming there are at least 3 areas that need attention:

Hi, @nephilim1973 First of all, thanks for having the initiative to send us devices to complete the port to Ubuntu Touch. A few things to make clear as I did in other issue about this topic. I started the port to Ubuntu Touch time ago but I had a lot of problems. I am going to mention a few of them:
** Not sure If most of those problems are solved now ** We know that there are users interested in run LoquiIM on Ubuntu Touch, I started with this interest, I contacted people from Ubuntu community to get some answers to problems developing for Ubuntu Touch, but at the end was more than difficult, so I stopped the port. I feel good seeing that someone could provide us devices for porting to a new platform, but at the same time a little afraid about the conditions. If I am not wrong the first version of Loqui was done using the Firefox Simulator not a device, then some people from Telefonica and Mozilla borrowed us (at first to Adán) some devices to improve the app, if I remember the ones from Telefonica were borrowed and the ones from Mozilla were as gift, maybe I am wrong, let Adán make this part more clear. As @TitanNano said, most of us develop (developed) Loqui on our free time and dedicating the time we consider necessary. So, if you provide us devices and we don't have results of the port what will happen? Send you back devices? Refund you money for devices you bought? What would be the conditions to receive those devices? I make all those questions because I asked to Ubuntu Community and Canonical people from beginning for a partnership were they send us devices and we use them to complete the port, but they said they didn't that kind of partnerships and were not interested on. So, if you say is your own money I want to be sure that you know all the possible situations if you send us devices. We though by a time with Adán to port LoquiIM to Tizen using a device that people from Intel (I think were Intel people, maybe I'm wrong) give as gift to Adán, at the end we didn't work on the port for Tizen. So, things happen and others not. I don't want to say, if someone send us devices to help us port Loqui to a new platform we will not work on that because it's not our interest. I write all this because if you ask me how many time will take us port LoquiIM to Ubuntu Touch with those devices... Short answer is: I don't know. Long answer: Most of us develop (developed) Loqui on our free time and dedicating the time we consider necessary. I don't want to say something as a final decision without @aesedepece opinion. So, let's release the kraken! Ping @aesedepece :) |
@nephilim1973 are you still offering Ubuntu Touch devices? As mentioned in #944 I have a basic version working on Ubuntu desktop, but can't really work on anything specific for Ubuntu Touch without a device... |
Hi, is it working in chromium? Sent using Dekko from my Ubuntu device |
