Adding a new device

This is a guide for people familiar with editing Markdown. If you have trouble editing this page or any questions, just open a new issue and report your findings.

  • Update Ubuntu touch and Webber to the latest available versions
  • Find out your device's codename on devices.ubuntu-touch.io
  • Test Webber exhaustively on your device. Try at least a few different websites and different options in Webber
    • Case 1: Everything works as expected: Add a new row with the ✔️-status to the table above
    • Case 2: Something doesn't work:
      • Search for open or closed issues and check if your problem has already been reported. If you aren't sure whether it's a device-specific issue, please open an issue.
      • If you are sure that it's a device-specific issue, please add a new table row with the appropriate ⚠️- or ⛔-status (see legend).
      • Then, add a new subsection to the device-specific issues section and provide as many details as possible. Use the example device as a starting point.
      • Try to find out if it's a Webber-specific issues or if other Webapps also don't work on your device due to issues with the Ubuntu touch image.
      • If you don't know some of the details (e.g. the reason for the problem), just leave it as TODO.
      • If you believe (or if you are not sure whether) there is something Webber can do to fix the problem, please open an issue. If you know that it's an upstream bug (e.g. in the Ubuntu touch image), please don't open a separate issue.
  • Thank you for your contribution!

Editing a device

Generally, the guidance in the adding a new device section also applies here.

  • Case 1: A device-specific bug has been fixed: update the respective table row (don't forget to update every column, including the reporter column)
  • Case 2: A new issue has occurred: follow the guide under Case 2 in the adding a new device section. If you are using the same device and the same Webber/Ubuntu Touch versions as indicated in the table, but you have contradictory results, please open an issue.
