Steps to get up and running to use Ubuntu Touch on a phone as your Daily Driver, a.k.a. Dogfooding. For this you wlil need:- A supported Nexus device (other devices may be maintained by the community, but for this we're using a supported device) * LG Nexus 4 * Samsung Galaxy Nexus A computer running Ubuntu 13.04 (raring), 13.10 (saucy) or 13.10. Note 14.04 is currently still in development. Other releases may also be supported to varying degrees. == Prepare == Prepare your environment and the device as outlined on the Touch Install page. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install#Flashing_the_device for full details. Once you have done the steps outlined in "Step 1 - Desktop Setup", "Step 2 - Device unlock" and "Step 3 - Initial Device Setup" you're ready to flash the device. == Flash == Flash the device as outlined in the above page "Step 4 - Deploying Image to Device". Note that in general "phablet-flash" alone is sufficient to flash the device. This will *not* wipe your /home/phablet user area. It will also retain network configuration settings. Sometimes you may want to start clean, which will mean wiping out all your data. {{{ phablet-flash ubuntu-system --bootstrap }}} If you want to test bleeding edge images which may not have gone through automated testing then issue:- {{{ phablet-flash ubuntu-system --channel=devel-proposed }}} == Post flashing tasks == === Setup network === Ensure your laptop is connected to a wireless network and then issue:- {{{ phablet-network }}} === Setup timezone === System Settings -> Time & Date === Add google contacts === {{{ adb shell sudo -u phablet -i syncevolution --configure --keyring=no --template SyncEvolution backend=carddav syncURL=https://www.googleapis.com/.well-known/carddav username= password= consumerReady=0 target-config@google addressbook syncevolution --configure --template "SyncEvolution Client" syncURL=local://@google consumerReady=1 username= password= google-contacts addressbook }}} If you have lots (more than 50) contacts then issue the following command multiple times until all your contacts are synced. {{{ syncevolution --sync one-way-from-server Google_Contacts addressbook }}} === Copy some music over === Mount via MTP and drag music files to the "Music" folder.
