Soldering irons are dirt cheap so someone who wants to try swapping the joysticks for the first time might get one of them instead of a hot air station, that’s why I didn’t even try it. Who knows? I might do a video trying that at one point.

@pimodzzzАй бұрын
So, you don’t need to break them apart but if you choose to leave them intact you would have to remove all the solder off the pins while making sure you don’t add too much low temp melting solder because what can happen is the solder can flow to the other side of the pad, where the joysticks are sitting, and it will be very hard to extract. So I thought it would be more beginner friendly to break them off since they’re not usable anyway.

Please tell us if I can use such device for navigation. Is verry important for me, because I intend to buy a Lenovo Tab M10 HD 2. Generation to use it with Ubuntu touch for navigation.
@PodcastUbuntuPortugal4 ай бұрын
You mean GPS navigation? If so, than yes, there are several GPS navigation apps, I personally like uNav. However I'm not sure your tablet is supported (some versions of it are), and Ubuntu Touch doesn't have natively AGPS on most devices (just on Volla devices), which means that navigation is purely made by GPS, which is slower than most people are used to get an initial GPS position. I've visited many countries in Europe and navigated using an Ubuntu Touch device, and even crossed some very wide extensions (multiple thousands of km) using it.

Hey Steve, since my comment I have joined the Ubuntu Ports forum and have followed their device recommendations and it's been working pretty great since. Following some debugging guides I found out that the Asian models for the Pixels sometimes have different binary blobs and firmware which was causing the issue, there have been unofficial patches for this and ever since, it's pretty stable, and I only had to force restart once during the past three months, which is excellent. Waydroid is also way more stable now. It's been a good experience since.

@jondo76805 ай бұрын
@@stephensumpter5311 your question already starts wrong. First you should ask what Android doesn't which Linux does. For one it doesn't force you to open the terminal to do your work. It doesn't force you to compile your software you simply get your apk and run it. And if you uninstall it you can be sure that it's gone, no bullshit left on the device only exception is a single folder, the downloads folder, and other folders only if you gave the permission. Which is what Android does great which Linux doesn't. Permission management. It's easier than beating the first level of Mario Bros, which even 3 year old children manage to do. It also has awesome sandboxing, programm x wants to steal data from y? Well only if I give them both the permission to access the same folder. Well my file manager has access to all files that's not good. Well luckily I can deny Internet access with 4-5 touches. And I can even teach my dad how to do it. He will forget it in a month but at least not in 10 minutes.

Running APKs is not a goal, the goal is to do different. However, you can install Waydroid and run android apps there. Ubuntu Touch main feature is convergence, and not spying on users, and allow people who participate on the project to contribute to the definition of its future.
