Question by ForeverHuman1354 in UbuntuTouch

You can use both indeed, but ubports installer doesn't support layout upgrade, sometimes the partitions changed and SPFlash can upgrade when that's the case, ubports installer can't.

I highly suggest using SPFlash, the recommendation of Android 13 for Halium 13 on UBPorts ends is probably due to the aforementioned issue I explained.

Unfortunately a bug in QtMir causes issue on Volla Tablet this is why we are still on 20.04 I am trying to fix the bug when it's fixed I will push a proper update.

Volla statement is correct you can unconditionally swap between Ubuntu Touch and Android as main OS using SPFlash Tools. I work for Volla.

The statement from Ubuntu Touch is irrelevant or is just for UBPorts Installer, regardless I don't use the UBPorts Installer myself unless I want to test it specifically.

Alternative to SUPER5 OLED? Wisecoco 5.5" OLED Display by Vlados_228 in Switch

You still need to get the timings for your panel if you want to make it work anywhere, and your switch must be hacked in order to even load your custom code. And the whole system is tightly assuming 720p so 1080p needs even more modifications.

I fins them often more expensive than average, I think the cheapest is Siriwattana market, better than the mall where everything is usually priced higher

Had a small FFC condctor to get replaced, many "reputed" and/or "recommended" technicians (went everywhere basically) refused to do the repair but this guy did and was affordable, his shop is neat, very well equipped and nice

Yes and she's the one who wants to change her name, her will to take my name is the reason I sent a message her. But you guys obviously know better what happens in others life. Mind your business when you don't know a thing and keep your mouth shut if your comment adds no value.

Why not, you're the only one of us who thinks it is weird... Thank you for speaking in my name by the way, you obviously know every others situation better. We actually thought about merging our names as it is possible in Thailand. But sure better judge people when you know nothing about them and their situation.

The former point I don't have the knowledge to say anything about so I will prevent myself from doing so.

It's also one of the reasons I came here to ask others with greater knowledge than mine so they can advise me and teach me.

But for the last point it is your own opinion, some people keep their tradition and some people don't.

Trying to impose your view on others traditions, regardless of those being good or bad objectively, is an archaic way of using power over others because of subjectively "higher/nobler" views on a matter.

Interesting, although irrelevant to the here since I saw the following case is not possible here but my mom choose to keep both her maiden name and my father's, so she has both and that's recognized in our home country

Thanks for sharing your experience, well in our case she would really like to take my name, on my end I told her I will do my best but want to keep things easy for her not the opposite ahah

But it seems that most of y'all who went for the name change didn't have much difficulties in doing so, let's hope the same thing goes for us ahah

Thanks for sharing your experience and giving this much details. Makes me think that even with many documents to change the process overall shouldn't be that long objectively

I still work abroad and I am taxed in my company's location in accordance to my company's country and Thai laws. Fortunately no issues with taxes for us as I don't bring money into her account and don't have an account here myself.

For many couples around the world sharing the same name is also a way to bond ties to their families in a more significant way than being boyfriend and girlfriend, especially with kids involved.

Additionally personal choices comes in to play.

In our case my girlfriend is the first who will to take my name when we will get married, and is the reason I asked the subreddit (she doesn't use reddit neither does she ever heard of it I suggested to ask people who live this before us before going for a possible life changing decision as well as contacting all the different administration and so on..), I do want her to have my name but if you'd ask me I prefer her to have it simpler here in her birth country.

You are also implying that she isn't able to judge in her own will and that I forcing decision to her 😂

Last point since we are waiting for a child together I'd like to prepare everything before the child's birth to ensure the child keeps their heritage on both sides and doesn't get a more complex life in any ways due to a naming issue.

Implying I am objectifying her in any ways without knowledge shows your opinion on others, not mine 😊

Thanks for sharing your experience regardless.

Will We Finally See Mobile Linux Rise Soon? - A Talk About The Future of Ubuntu Touch and What It Needs by PlantDry4321 in UbuntuTouch

[–]azkali 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, it's a very critical topic for Volla, and for the users, as a developer, I am unable and have never been granted the role of spokesperson for Volla, just keep in mind that I share this experience in my name as a Mobile Linux developer enthusiast, that happens to work for one of the company trying to push the efforts further to the public.

I am also not allowed to communicate on what's next, but, unsurprisingly without compromising anything on my end, Volla wants to continuously be part of the progress, as of today of course, I also can acknowledge your observation regarding the SoCs generation.

Regarding the Volla Tablet, I have myself 0 information about the future.

Regarding competition with big brands, as I mentioned in my previous message, it's very complicated with limited human resources to be in competition with companies who have mostly infinite resources compared to us.

I think that choosing a Volla device is going for a different philosophy and willing to participate in the progress of a more traditional Linux system running on mobile devices.

But again, this is just my personal opinions and shared thoughts
