I have configured in my BQ E4.5 OTA-9 'lock when idle' to 4 minutes. But
after any phone call the device goes to suspend within 10 secs. Is this a

Why would you want android apps ?
Most of them won’t work because they rely on google play services or because of
the sandbox.
They would also look out of place. And if you can run android apps, why would
they be bothered to write a native app.

Actually, I'm getting email from this list here [1], and there are

Maybe the mailman thing is just an integration into Launchpad, and the

Hi Alexey!
Currently the Sim-card system is not hot-swappable, the best way to
detect SIM with the phone turned on is enable/disable flight mode.

Hi All,
Thanks for your insights. Second sim card is on its way...
Never used dual sims and never had phone, where access to sim cards was so
easy (always needed to remove battery first). So, question: are sim-cards
hot-pluggable/hot-swappable?

Hello everyone,
Another quiet day in the landing world - only one new package released
today so far: a new oxide-qt with multiple security updates. For the
rest we'll have to wait for till later next week.
We used this rather quiet day to update our wiki-pages regarding the
release procedures [1],
I'd been thinking that things had been very quiet too - I just put it
down to everyone working extra hard!

I'm trying to explore the "Ubuntu SDK" and just to test I made a "HTML 5

The app need to use my own angular library (such as: angular.min.js) and

an index page with other html views, but it doesn't work, it s

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a project, that is building a docking
station for the Bq 4.5, based on a raspberry pi?
With a custom (3D printed) case, a pi could be used to drive a display
over HDMI and use it's USB ports to connect a keyboard and mouse.
Kind regards,
