This release brings Improved audio device selection, notifications for ongoing calls, a new sensors panel (thanks @devrtz) suspend from system menu (thanks undef) and more!
While one could get back to an ongoing call on #phosh's lockscreen by swiping
to the right it wasn't clear if there was still a call ongoing. This will be
improved by showing a notification on the lockscreen making it hard to miss (and which we can likely also use to switch between calls once the calls app supports it):

An notification that allows to discover an ongoing call in #phosh
Well, I tried and failed for the second time and once again have no clue how to get #KDE / #QT apps to use a dark theme in #Phosh . I even tried switching theme and color pallet over qt5ct, qt6ct and kvantum but the mobile versions don't seem to react to those apps whatsoever or I did something really wrong (yet I set the env variable correctly). I wish something like PostmarketOS Tweaks had it, as far as I know it's just a different call because there is no proper standard for dark mode yet.
Looking forward tomorrow 3 days hackfest organized by @tbernard
The main topic is GNOME mobile, but I expect there will be lots of collateral topics such as camera, hardware enablement, adaptive apps, UX, platform APIs, interoperability, and coordination.
Also I have made a little app for #Phosh
It's called Ringman. You can use it to set ringtones, just place any audio files into special directory and then apply it from the app.
It's actually just a bash script using YAD for interface. I hope it will work if anyone besides me wants to try it, haha.
This one has a new menu on power button long press, initial emergency calls support (thanks @CoderThomasB, @devrtz), improvements on the compositor side, new completers in phosh-osk-stub, configurable ring tones and more.
Ever since doing the initial completion support in #phosh 's osk-stub I wanted to add a generic "unix pipe" like completer. phosh-osk-stub would feed the program preedit on stdin and read the completions from the program's stdout.
That is there now and with that and some more changes I can use @zachdecook 's #swipeGuess to do swipe like typing. To be clear: all the hard work is done by swipeGuess, phosh-osk-stub just piggy backs on it:
Some progress to handle notches / cutouts of #linuxmobile phones better in #phosh : I have a small lib that gets panel cutout / notch information as #svg paths and can calculate a bounding box . #phoc can use it to render cutouts for debugging and #phosh can use it for layout (so far only to shift the panel down). (see follow up posts for more pictures).

Finally got to look at this again and instead of just pushing down #phosh's top panel we now place the clock to the left or right based on the available space. The logic is still pretty simple but it covers the cases where we have data for in #gmobile. Will try to land this in 0.29.0.
