Let's me just start off by saying you are doing a wonderful job! Thanks a million! Having been an faithful user of the N900, Sailfish on the Nexus 5 has been a revelation.

I originally followed RealJohnGalt's instructions to install 2.0.1.11 on a clean CM 12.1, however, without sfdroid and gapps. Everything was working perfectly.

Then I upgraded to version 2.0.5.6 following minimec's howto in #366. The result is great with one smallish problem. The sensors stop working after a while (no values being displayed at all in AIDA64). A simple reboot does NOT seem (!) to fix this. However, reflashing sensorsfix3.zip mostly helps, though not always.

Do you have any suggestions as how to remedy this situation?

Guys, I would like to install a custom android rom to use some features i miss on sailfish (Here maps for example).
I'm using multirom, how I can install the new rom and delete the original one?
What's a light rom without google apps you suggest me?

About the sensors failing in 2.0.5.6:

As far as I could determine, it's not the reflashing of sensorsfix3.zip that does the trick. That may just have been coinicidental.

BTW, the files from sensorsfix3.zip are all on the device located under the /system directory as you would expect (owner root.root, 644). I looked at this while the sensors were inoperable. Filedate is set to Aug 1 2008, which does not correspond to the date set within the zip archive. So, presumably that was the system time during the installation process.

What brought the sensors back this morning was a push-off-button-for-10s reboot.

Am I actually the only one experiencing this weird problem?

Let's just say, once one has recorded a Christmassy video sideways, one is reminded of the validity of working sensors.

Nope, the sensors service sometimes crashes or does not start on boot, just restart it with
and everything should be fine.

guys i've done a mess!
I installed an android rom and now sailfish doesn't start anymore!
Here is the black screen

i would like to recover my data at least, how i can export the partition in recovery mode? someone can help me?

edit: i found the nemo folder after hours, enabled MTP in Recovery and now i'm copying all my files..

Is SFOS your primary rom?

If not you could flash one of my or minimecs kernels and see if it boots again.

it's not. I tried with the flash of the kernel but nothing changed.
I have my personal data, now i will do a complete format and a clean install

You might want to share where you found the Sailfish folder. I don't remember exactly where it is and I just flashed CM13 back on the phone just to see how the battery behaves.

it was in multirom/sailfish/ and then a hidden folder beginning with a dot. Now i wiped all the data and i can't give you the full path.
