Re: Sync

 

Hi Wayne, I've always had writable images, and never lost ota updates. Occasionally I loose changes I've made to the system, but not often.

Owncloud works great, though cron doesn't seem to work when the device is asleep. Would be great to have a working click package with a gui in the open app store, however as commandline works well I haven't spent much time chasing it.

Good luck.

Mitchell

Hi I'm looking after the upgrade to vivid to get some kind of better sync in place, i currently use a ssh script between the bq and computer and the nexus 7 and laptop sync to this for tasks, notes and memories app for journal. I'm looking at adding a photo / music sync into the picture. I was looking at using owncloud as I have one already set up and active. I noticed vivid has it in the apt repositories but I have to make my image writeable therefore loosing my OTA updates which is a lot to loose for one package! Is there a way I could get this package? Is there a way to bundle it in to a click package or can I make the system image writable, get owncloud installed then make none writeable and still get updates? The phine has pretty much everything but no capability of syncing data thats pretty simple.. Just feel I'm going in back in time to my zaurus manually transmitting data with a terminal and ssh when I could have some app or a cron running a owncloud sync.. Any help im most greatful as im just planning to settle down and run vivid now all is pretty stable and I have pretty much i want...

Best regards
Wayne Ward
