Hi all,

Just picked up a (new in box!) Nexus 5 as it seemed to be the best route for a Sailfish daily driver. After much deliberation, contemplation and research, I have decided to abandon the modern two camp paradigm and focus solely on Sailfish.

That said, I'm about to start the process of installing. Am I correct in assuming that the cm121beta0 build doesn't function correctly, and I should use the cm121alpha1 build as indicated on the piratepad?

I don't care about sfdroid. I just want a working, slick device. I don't mind advanced sysadmin tasks and I'm not hoping for a bug-free existence.

If anyone could be so kind, I just want to know which build is the latest and greatest (and most functional). Also, is sensorsfix2.zip the latest?

Thanks for all of your hard work. I've always loved this community.

I have only experience on build based on cm12.1 and it works pretty well. No sfdroid on my device.

Current status of the issues I am having;

The root cause seems to be that device only works with GPS, not AGPS. (and AFAIK all other ports hace same issue)
Investigation ongoing, been debugging the GPS interface to find a way to inject ephemerals correctly.

Have not yet started investigation, this is a low-priority problem for me.

Debugged with aid of @dpurgin, raised issue#54 for the problem on github.
Now it seems that the problem is centered on pulseaudio subsytem, probably interface setup of configuration.
Investigation ongoing.

It only took about 1-2 minutes for me after a fresh install a few days ago. Me and my Nexus were outside and i didn't notice much of a difference to my Jolla Phone with A-GPS.

can confirm @Mautz.
For me it was under a minute outdoors to have satfix in modrana after fresh install/flash.

Can confirm this. Tested the GPS again after my last post, it only took around 20 seconds to get a satfix outdoors.

With AGPS on the Jolla phone it usually takes half a second, so I'd say that's a slightly noticeable difference. I do mind waiting for GPS signal, because if you're looking for a GPS signal, it's because you need it right there and then, otherwise you could just take a look at any old regular map.

Just got this up and running on my Nexus 5, which was brand new in box. I only booted into android long enough to enable USB debugging so I could throw adb and fastboot commands at it.

Very happy with all of the hard work you all have done. Awesome!

I've run into an issue:

I cannot get MMS to work, no matter which APN/MMSC I use. I'm on T-mobile US.

Is there anyone out there that has gotten this to work on our N5? I've tried epc.tmobile.com, fast.tmobile.com, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Set it to not download mms automatically and switch to 3g/2g and download the mms. It works most of the time. It does not work on 4g
