Re: SailfishOS bugs and glitches
 
Sometimes on a page, like in the browser, the onscreen keyboard pops up, fills up half of the screen and I cannot get it out of the way. Clicking on the web page is not easy: most of the page may be covered with hyperlinks.

Swiping the browser to Home, and entering the page again may help, or it may not. Haven't found the trick yet. The N9 Swype could be swiped to the side, and a normal keyboard could be swiped away to the bottom.

On the Jolla I enabled Developer mode and Remote connection. I tried with and without Password. The MacBook Pro, OSX 10.8.5 cannot make a connection. Though USB:

MacBook:~ rob$ ssh 169.254.41.91
ssh: connect to host 169.254.41.91 port 22: Connection refused

Through WiFi there is a different response:
rob@192.168.254.38's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
Ok this seems to be user error.

I have no clue where you got that ip from, but that is a generic ip (like windows used to hand out) Most likely because it is trying to get an ip by dhcp from the phone. (Which will come in an update).

So first you need to set the ip on the usb interface of your pc/laptop. By default it is set to 192.168.2.15 on the device so anything like 192.168.2.1 for example will do.

Then you have to log in as user nemo (also for wifi)

so #ssh nemo@192.168.2.15

The password you need to set yourself or get generated randomly in the developer mode settings.

One rather suspects that the font might have been selected when they were anticipating a genuine HD display, before settling on the qHD we actually got.

Ok first of all you need to select developer mode to get USB networking.

See my previous post for the details.

Two: USB tethering is a feature that is coming soon. Which is sharing your phones internet connection with the pc. Not the same as being able to access your phone over USB network.

three: Windows 8.1 has rndis drivers by default

It's not a pulley menu now, it's a push gesture on the lock or home screen. Push in from the left OR the right to see your Ambience options, although you won't see anything until you've "favourited" at least one Ambience image in the Gallery app.

Personally, I think this is a total waste of the "push" gesture on the lock/home screen which could surely be used for something more useful (another page of multi-tasking apps, perhaps?). It's not as if you're going to change Ambience every 5 minutes.

Probably one of the optimisations they referred to in the Finnish article - maybe on low batt the CPU is incorrectly underclocked to a ridiculous level, possibly this worked fine with the ST-E silicon but not so good with Qualcomm...

Pasted those into a new file, sent it to the Jolla by bluetooth and it worked! There may be an easier way, but I did it!
I had a similar experience. Couldn't import a single large vcf containing about 166 contacts (with avatars etc.), but could import 26 separate files if I joined all the a*.vcf >a.vcf, b*.vcf > b.vcf etc. Importing the 26 small vcf files went like clockwork. No idea why the large file wouldn't import considering it contained exactly the same data. My method for transferring the vcf files was to email them to myself and open the email attachment on the Jolla. :)

I've now sent my large vcf file to w00t so hopefully Jolla can work out what the problem is and fix it because it's rather frustrating.

I AM a developer. It's not freaking rocket science, Mike. I didn't use that term lightly, but it's not likely to be the most onerous of changes.

Not specific to the browser problem but yes, I really wish there was a button on the keyboard that allowed you to dismiss the keyboard rather than force you to hunt around for somewhere "safe" to tap on the screen and hopefully get rid of the keyboard.

Also, I've noticed in the browser that the keyboard will quite often cover up the field into which you are trying to enter text (eg. email address, username or password) . The virtual keyboard integration with the Gecko browser still has a way to go.

Anyone know why Jolla decided on the Gecko browser, and not continue with Webkit? Is it for Firefox OS compatibility?

1. Yes I did try in Developper mode (USB mode).

2. I know this is something different, but I was advised to search with this term on the Internet because if you can tether, then you can conect to the device through IP, and there might be more results.

3. Good news!

Totally agree, see one of my posts above. :p

Just in case, I've given the link of your post to the Jolla employee that helped me, just in case he wants to share the temporary workaround he found for me (it was on IRC, can't find the logs easily).

But perhaps he will prefer to remain silent until a proper fix is found.
