That would be more than a solid start, we can always aim higher (& probably fall) later

all that works in nemo but there is no sailfish settings app in sailsdk. But it should be possible to activate wlan from nemo settings app if zypper in nemo-settings in top of above?

So, now that we have a pseudo Sailfish Hacker Edition on our N9/50s, anyone tried building Silica apps from Sailfishapps and deploying them onto the phone?

Then I added more thorough logging to get at the data buffers passed between the kernel driver and nped.

Now next step would be to try to make sense of the data, and try to decipher the protocol specification. When that's done the positioning daemon can be replaced with a new implementation.
The source of nped is closed, but the algorithms on GPS calculation are public so the task should be doable.
Perhaps - or most likely - this is usefull

Yes, it is very much what I was able to decipher. I have not had time to concentrate on it fully yet, but there are lots of scattered information like that that maybe can be used to reconstruct an alternative to nped.

What is working:
- Sound
- Haptics feedback
- battery and network indicators on homescreen
- voice calls (but ui is a crap)

What is not working:
-Everything else

Do
zypper in sensorfw sensorfw-configs
if you need unlock by doubletap. Thats also fix proximty sensor.
Jolla packages depends on sensorfw-qt5(file conflicts with sensorfw) which do not works with our devices, but zypper on device dont care about file conflicts, so you can do that.

Jolla UI works, like in SDK.
