There is a 2.0.5.6 build on the mer OBS repo, but its OTA only. I ran repo sync last night and plan on crapping out a new hybris 12.1 based build tonight, or tomorrow night. I love Sailfish OS and I love being able to record video when I want to. Maybe it'll work great, maybe it won't boot, I'll snap, and i'll just run Android 4.4.4. Wish me luck friends.

Hello people,

since today the sensors on my Nexus 5 with Sailfish 2.0.4 stopped working. Should I reflash the sensorfix? No auto-rotate, no auto-brightness etc.

EDIT: Solved flashing the sensorfix3.zip again

I tried to install CM12.1 based Sailfish OS on my Nexus 5 but I am stuck in bootloop. I can see the Google logo only. I have latest TWRP 3.2.3 and I also tried with 3.1.0 and 3.0.2 but same result. I can't install the pure CM12.1 Android either. However, I am able to install CM13 based Sailfish OS just fine with latest TWRP. Any idea how I could install CM12.1 Sailfish OS?

Hi. I did an cm12 installation today but only with TWRP 3.0.0 (need a special TWRP version for Ubuntu Touch). The installation went well. Please check the md5sum of you installation images...

md5sum of the images I use:
Also be aware that you need some fixes for the sensors on the Nexus5 on CM12&CM13. These fixes come in a separate sensorsfix3.zip file, that you can only flash if you use the TWRP version mentioned in the first post of this thread. Otherwise you will have to do the changes manually, copying the files after installation.

Last not least: Currently the last working version of SailfishOS on the Nexus5-cm12-port is "SailfishOS 2.0.5.6 (Haapajoki)"


Cheers and Good Luck with SailfishOS on your Nexus5...

Maybe complete wipe and then flash from PC the first official Android ROM for Nexus 5 from Google, then flash TWRP and then CM+SfOS. Last weekend I had same problem with bootloop on my Nexus 4 and I couldn't flash any ROM from TWRP or CWM (because of some error). I thought that it is a dead end and I can't rescue my phone. But then I found advice - flash from PC the first Android ROM from Google and it helped .

Hello, I know it was long time ago, but have not found any update on this one. Can you let me know the outcome of your anbox attempt, please? Did you managed to make it work on CM12.1 or CM13? If so, with what Sailfish version? (As far as I seen anbox requires X or xwayland but Sailfish has none of them. But maybe I am wrong.)

Thanks.

Hello, I know it was a while ago but can you let me know the steps how you updated from 2.0.4.13 to 2.0.5.6, please? I have tried to follow the instruction from the main topic, but it always stuck at a package around 80% and after that I could never boot into the rom again. :-(

If you could let me know the main difference between 2.0.4.13 and 2.0.5.6 I would much appreciate that too!

Thank you.

@edp17

Have you tried to SSH into the device using usb after the reboot?

edp17 | # 649 | 2019-11-06, 08:40 | Report

No, because the phone stuck at the Google logo and I thought the system was not started at all. I will try again.
What's the benefit of upgrading 2.0.4.13 to 2.0.5.6 by the way?
(Newer Qt5 libs or more stable system or new functions?) Thanks.
