No, no, >NO< Tallien. It tried to function properly before someone put
the text markers from under to over the text position. The markers
were still to small but the accuracy was far higher than a marker over
the word we want to mark. Now I get as a bug fix a pencil? Yes, I have
one but... HELLO? >>>Just put these blue dots where they were and if
You already edit the code make them a bit bigger. How is that hard???
But I bet You miss the point again: it is not about this single but.
It is about whole attitude to the system. There seem to be no people
like me who can give a critical opinion and only people who fell in
love with UT no matter comes. If by the next OTA for example the web
browser disappears it will also be no problem for You: You'll tell me
to use Links2.
And the answer is here from NeoTheThird:
"What he just said. Could not agree more. Ubuntu Touch is good"
I didn't say it is not. I just put You an easy to solve problem in
front of the eyes and some of You guys will keep on telling me, there
is no problem.
Some of You just accept any step back without seeing it:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1284308 <<this bug
occured with the release of Ubuntu 12.04. I'll say it again, before
12.04 there were no bluetooth problems.
For the third time, these are not the biggest problems of mine. These
were only examples of the attitude to the development: if I was a
developer who makes a change to the text markers or bluetooth, I'd
test it whether it is a good or bad change. And some of You just
accept solutions that don't work in 90% of cases only because they
work better with 10% cases that are "cool".
What I also noticed is that every time I try to show a problem, some
of You see me as a hater. It is really not the point. If I was a hater
I wouldn't use devices that I hate. Any project needs a reasonable
criticism to not let make steps backward. Ubuntu gave us in its
history to many examples how to go back.
Cheers
Marcin
ps.
I hate that level 25 in a hard mode: can't pass it. That's my real and
biggest problem with UT! All these machines still pass through ;-))))

Don't know if this helps you, but I found to my pleasant surprise that
using a rubber-tipped stylus of a narrow width increased my
speed and accuracy greatly when trying to select/edit text.
I hope development continues on UT, as I would much rather avoid
using a Microsoft or Apple phone if I didn't have to! I am glad I got
my Meizu Pro 5 before it sold out and would rather have it than anything
else.
When I donated previously I seem to recall there was an option to
select what you would like the devs to work on. I always chose desktop
plus phone/tablet. I see they have changed the options to vote for now
when you download, but "personal and mobile computing" are still
listed, so that's what I'll continue to vote for with my next donation.
Please keep up the good work on UT, I need my Ubuntu phone! :)
