This and the other applications like it only appear to adjust the speaker level on my phone. People I am calling are having a hard time hearing me. My voice coming through to them is very quiet.

.

Is it just my phone or can you guys try this. I don't have any scripts monitoring the sensor processes.

I got mad at the crash one time during an important call and almost threw away my Nexus 5. I shook it so hard with anger. To my surprise, the sensor and the touch screen started working again. I have been doing this, every time my touch screen stops responding, since this happened a few days ago. It always recover if you shake it very hard and wait for few seconds. Sometimes I have to shake it few times. I shake top end of the phone to the sides and up down --hard. Don't know why this is working.

I do have an issues with SFdroid that makes me reboot once or twice a day. It feels like SF and Droid is fighting for access to disk or running out of RAM or something and the LED starts blinking red. I don't know if anyone has reported it or know any work around.

The website said "ships in March!" but March is over and i haven't heard anything! Point being, if you order one don't expect to get it quickly. I think it'll be worth the wait though.

I ordered the FP2 in mid-Jan, received it in mid-Feb.

Installed SFOS2 on it a few nights ago, and it's fantastic.

I have the same. When the LED starts blinking red just press on the power button a couple of time to keep the phone from rebooting. I'm using sfdroid on the N5 most of the time.

Maybe it is hardware related, but that doesn't answer my question:

is there no way to increase the sensitivity of the microphone?

Really happy with Sailfish OS on the Nexus 5, but I am going to have to get a different phone if I cannot make phone calls on it.

I've have the same feeling about this; have read somewhere that covering the second mic hole on top of the phone helps, because it happens mostly in noisy surroundings, with bad signal quality

What is the approx battery life on nexus 5 with sailfish. I understand the sensor framework issue. But still just curious.

I have the same issue...red blinking led. I do exactly that. Press power one or twice or keep it pressed. Usually it doesn't reboot, but sometimes does.
Anybody knows why this is happening?

Well, to be honest it lasts less comparing to Android. But If Android does quite well the battery life so SF wouldn't be so bad at all, right?. But It always depends on your everyday use. Of course this is with sfdroid enabled and I think it makes sense. But if you disable sfdroid it lasts longer than Android ...as I remember (have sfdroid now). Hope it helps but anyway you should give it a try, despite its drawbacks or missing apps (maps or bluetooth headset connectivity) I think it worth it!.
