@arifkhan123 MyDocs will lose 4GB space. Thats all.
@Dave999 will see.

So now that 1.0.4.20 is out, when can we expect a ported version? :)

Any version of sailfish OS newer than 1.0.2.5 requires an updated kernel for Nemo which the N9 doesn't have at this point. This means you won't be able to run these releases of Sailfish until someone brings us a working 3.5.x kernel instead of the currenty used 2.6.32.

__fastcall 2014-03-18 14:06

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Oh well. Thanks for clearing that up. There is no way to port the kernel to the new version? I thought Meego is opensource?

Not the hardware drivers.

Version required new kernel wasn't released yet. @Just486 is wrong.
Problem in lipstick, windows manager. From 1.0.3.8 it think N9 is landscape device and showing windows in thsi way:https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bi87Mo-IcAA81MO.jpg

might there be a chance for another patch?

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Hi All,

I accidentally enabled the frame rate from developer mode in sailfish. I dont have a linux machine. In the wiki, it was given that this can be done via Harmattan terminal also.
I am using the vgrade-sailfish_r5.1.tar.bz2 image
Please help me fix this.
I have tried removing everything from
/home/user/MyDocs/sailfish
also i cannot find /home/nemo since i did not use nemo image.
Please help

sorry mate I am very busy these days, I am busy at work specially third quarter of each month, I found some drivers havent tried on my beloved N9, coz as you might know my N9 faced a problem and it was under service for more than 2 months, I will do my best to accomplish this mission.

Nice and runs pretty smooth though has bugs. couldn't download from store, browser is a pain.

I also enabled frame yesterday. i correct that by editing with pc notepad the %conf..xml just remove simple between the strings

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Is there any ETA on when Sailfish will be usable for daily users, i.e. calling, texting/sms or online messaging, camera, applications, pretty much a fully working OS?

Right now I wouldn't want to install it on my phone, and I doubt many others would install it because of its current lack of functionality. Is Jolla helping with this effort or is it now just a community effort to port sailfish to the N9?

Some of these already work: calling, texting/sms and Sailfish applications all work just fine already. We still need the camera to be fixed, as well as GPS and some bugs with the sound.

As for who's working on this: Jolla is not contributing, but is supporting the community efforts to do so. As I understand it, this is because of legal issues due to the devs' status as former Nokia employees. I also do not currently have a dev environment that would let me contribute to this, but I'm hoping to set one up next month and take a crack at the sound issues.

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Is performance decent? That's the one concern I really have. If it's less laggy than nitdroid I think I'll hop on the Saifilsh wagon, but if its not at least fairly smooth then there'll be a problem.

And how is work on 1.0.3.X compatibility? Any progress?

Performance is beautiful, most of the OS feels smoother than Harmattan. Some apps (e.g. Jolla store) feel a bit jerky; not sure whether this is the apps running slow or a problem with the touchscreen.

Someone needs to put this into a consolidated list. It's a bit disorganized, and having just a bug tracker isn't very smart.


But you've convinced me to switch to Jolla, except for one thing. Is there a way to manually resize the partitions so I have more space for music and stuff on my harmattan partition? I don't like having only 4 GB of space on a device with 16GB of storage. The apps/OS shouldn't take up 75% of the storage space.

Yes, of course. The default partition layout of N9 makes vague sense on a 16G device, bun on a 64G device it is fairly silly.
How to do it;
  • boot to ubiboot maintanance console
  • back up your existing partitions into tar files and ship off the device
  • use fdisk to repartition the device however you want it
  • format your new partitions
  • restore your data to device
  • fix the partition layout for booting in ubiboot.conf
  • profit :)

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Jolla using brtfs, you dont need to repartition anything. And Jolla have microsd slot :)

I thought this was not about Jolla, but SailfishOS on N9...

Or use Gparted AND use the mouse and the slide to change partition size. It's easy and with care it can be done without format. Just choose file format (ex. fat32 or ext4) for the created none-allocated partition when you add/move it to new partition.

Hi All,

I am unable to view videos in Jolla. I can only hear the audio of the video but screen is blank. Any fix for this?

coderus 2014-03-25 10:41

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
its Sailfish, its not Jolla
and no, no fix yet.

Shadwblade2652 2014-03-25 19:41

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)
 
Should I use @garp 's method or use juiceme's? Garps seems too simple but juicemes seems too complex.

Also I have a 16 GB but I only use like 10 apps that aren't default and I have like 7GB of music and id like for there to be enough space. Any way to run sailfish off of /Home instead of a new partition?
