kde 4.13 kde connect

with kde 4.13 current extra kdeconnect is supplied . good but it is an old version 5.2 .

in the past there were 0.6 , 0.6.4 , 0.6.5 and now there is 0.7

many bugs are fixed and there is new features .

see http://albertvaka.wordpress.com/2014/06/28/awesome-contributions-to-kde-connect/

where can we report we want 0.7 ?

thanks

It’s already compiled in the kde extra unstable repo:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=KDE%3AUnstable%3AExtra&package=kdeconnect-kde
So i think we just have to be patient.

hope this will be supplied with 4.13.3

thanks

No. Why should it?

It’s completely unrelated to KDE SC, that’s why it is in [noparse]KDE:Extra[/noparse].
It’s from KDE-Playground actually, see also http://www.kde.org/community/whatiskde/softwarecompilation.php):

KDE-Playground: Similar in scope to KDE-Extragear, this pseudo-package contains mostly pre-release and unstable software not part of the main software release. It is a place for applications to mature before being presented for public consumption, and should not be considered for regular users.

Anyway, I created a 0.7 package now:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wolfi323:/branches:/KDE:/Extra/

Somebody please test this and report whether it works (I cannot do that myself as I don’t have an Android device).

Unfortunately it doesn’t build for 12.3, so I’m not sure whether it will be accepted in [noparse]KDE:Extra[/noparse] then…
This might actually be the reason why it is not there yet. Well, maybe I am able to fix the build, but probably the KDE version is too old there as it builds fine for KDE_Current_openSUSE_12.3.

FYI, version 0.7 has been added to the [noparse]KDE:Extra[/noparse] repo now. (but not by me… :wink: )

And it works good :slight_smile:
Now we can finally browse the phone file system with Dolphin.

what does not work :

  1. explore files with dolphin

we can’t access to extcard : all my personnal data are in extcard : pictures , videos , documents , dcim etc. !

with the ftp server “primitive ftpd” in smartphone i have access to “device storage” and extcard
2. sending file

2.1 from pc

nothing happens when selecting “send files to smartphone”

2.2 from samrtphone

some files contents are not complete for each type i tested : jpg , mp4 , epub

this is not new

  1. i did not test
  • copy/past between pc and smartphone
  • notifications : my version 4.2.2 of android is not compliant

4 . there is 2 occurences of external module “copy/paste between device”
with each one a different icon

copy/past , 2 directions : ok

also i discovered we can now reply to an sms with the last kde telepathy app .

see http://dot.kde.org/2014/04/29/kde-telepathy-sprint

if it is compliant to 0.7 please can we get the last kde telepathy version ?

And what is the last kde telepathy version?

According to KTp - KDE Community Wiki, the current version is 0.8.0, whereas [noparse]KDE:Extra[/noparse] already has 0.8.1.
And looking into the git repo indicates that 0.8.1 is indeed the latest release.
It is the latest one available for download as well:
http://download.kde.org/stable/kde-telepathy/

Btw, your link is about the work that has been done at the KDE Telepathy Sprint in April, it doesn’t mention any new release.

| - Update to 0.8.1:

  • New bugfix release, no upstream changelog
    |

the 0.8.1 is before the sprint

so be patient

Not really before the Sprint, that was from 10. to 15. April, and 0.8.1 has been released on 25. April.
And as mentioned it is the latest one available for download.

But 0.8.1 is a bugfix only release. I guess it does contain the bug fixes mentioned in that article.
New features will have to wait until 0.9 I suppose. I have no idea when this will be released though.

so be patient

Yes.
I’m sure that when a new version is released, it will get added to [noparse]KDE:Extra[/noparse] soon afterwards. :wink:

my bug reports

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336862

for those who want to confirm or to complete them

I have not those issues with my Nexus 4 (Kitkat 4.4.4) and Kde 4.13.
Kde connect updated versions on android (0.7.1) and opensuse13.1x64 (0.7-1.1).

there is now a new android and kde version 0.7.1 with fixes and new features .

according to be consistent and to make valuable test please can we get the kde version 0.7.1 ?

OBS is down at the moment.

Please be patient…

i sent a message about 0.7.1 to the packager .

his answer :

> Thanks for info. I’ll update package today afternoon when get back from
> work :wink:

OK, OBS is working again since yesterday evening.

One note though:
I doubt that 0.7.1 will fix any of your problems.

The only changes I see in the git repo versus 0.7:

  • Should not scroll if dy is 0
  • Added right and middle click, even though it’s not implemented in Android yet
  • Implemented scrolling, by sending scroll down or scroll up button events, according to the difference value.
  • Renamed mousepad -> touchad
