Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Thanks for information! I hope there will be an update soon! It's a great app but the missing notifications are making it a little bit complicated ;)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

SailorGram 0.8 is in beta testing phase atm.
Testing is going well (there are only 3 blocker issues), so the next version should be released in early february.

The next update brings the daemon (which makes the notifications clickable), stickers, a performance boost and more. :)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Wow great news!!!i'm waiting!!!

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Great news! That's the best thing about Communities: direct communication between dev and user! Great! Donation in coming!

Hope after update there is more stability. I had to delete harbour-sailorgram dir twice...

But great effort and keep it up! I'm absolutely excited about this app!

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Thanks :)

Yes, it should be more stable!
I have updated the client to the latest available library from Aseman which fixes some connection issues present in 0.73-5.

In fact, now the client is able to restore the connection to Telegram DCs automatically.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Is it possible to be a beta tester for the next Sailorgram Version?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Thank you for your work TemeV
As i understood, you are not interested anymore to develop telepathy-morse in the future?

Our friend Dax build a very good Sailorgram App, which i use everyday, but i think i would be better to integrate Telegram into the Jolla Messaging.
And we still need a running Telegram Client for N900 (Maemo) and N9 (Harmattan)...

Would be nice, if somebody would continue your work, if you will stop here...

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Yes, but there is no beta atm :)

I'm waiting for the new LibQTelegram which supports API Level 51 (supergroups, gif, bots, broadcast channels and so on) and TelegramQML 2.0

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

wow sounds nice! :)

how can i install the Stickers on Sailorgram?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

In 0.8, Long press a sticker and tap "Install"

(Note that the default sticker set can't be installed)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

i try this, but it not install it :( but i think it was the dafault sticker. can i install the default by a other way?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

The default sticker set should be shipped with Sailorgram.

I've postponed this issue in a subsequent release because it was delaying the current one :)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Then I have no further than to wait

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I installed telegram on my ubuntu and planed to install it on sailfish to but then I realized:

Has today's people been brain watched or what the hell is going on?

They talking about open source and privacy.

b u l l s h i t

Why on earth do I have to give them my phone number?

And where is the server code if it is so open?

edit: I give up NSA asholes already have my info since I have google.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

welcome to the brave new world where IMs are phone-number based

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

...And how long do you think telegram will be under no pressure if it success and not only yet another geeksonly platform?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

And XMMP is better than telegram since it is fully open source. Telegram is not.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I've had similar feelings when I was considering registration.
What annoyed me the most?
Not the phone number entry window, that "have to" part of it.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I changed my mind.

I have decided to use telegram anyway. It seems be the most friendly chat and not only for geeks. I would recomend this for non geeks too.

works flawlessly compared to XMMP where all clients still sucks.

This is what people should choose instead of whatsup/gtalk and so on. Atleast the client is open and works on every platform.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Conversations on Android and Monal on iOS work great.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

IOS, Android it should work on all platforms including linux, macos, windows atm there is no good XMMP client working everywhere that's why no one use it except GPL folks only.

Whatever we like FOSS or not fact stands we can't convince non geeks to switch if FOSS apps is broken. So far I have not seen any XMMP based apps that works good and easy.

Also people wants media(post links, pictures, sound) not only text messages. This is something telegram has. XMMP may have some half backed approach in some clients.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I think you highly underestimate the amount of people who exclusively use their mobile phone to communicate. WhatsApp can only be used on one device - one single mobile phone - at a time, yet it has a billion active users. If desktop clients exist, lots of people will use them. If they don't, lots of people won't truly care. In fact I just realised Monal actually has a version for OSX, so there's that. If your point is that the clients on different operating systems have different names, I also think that isn't making the situation easier (because people will have to figure out the name of what they need to install depending on which kind of phone they have), but that's almost inevitable with a decentralized protocol. Almost (this has a lot of potential to be the next big thing).

Conversations and Monal

All of those work perfectly fine in Conversations, I'm pretty sure in Monal as well but I don't have an iOS device to confirm.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Which of these runs on SailfishOS?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

What is the status of "secure chat mode" I tried to send msg in this mode but it seems the received does not get the message.

I use 0.8 from openrepo also tried compile latest master branch but it didn't compile some source file was missing.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Uhm, I have noticed this message now (I need to enable notification for this topic).

In 0.8 it a good idea to avoid secret chats because they are unstable.

The master branch of Sailorgram on GitHub needs to be adjusted because I have tried to integrate the new version of the library that I was using (the Cutegram ones) but it's incomplete, buggy and unsuitable for a mobile device, and they are becoming obsolete again (they use an older layer now).

Currently I'm developing a dedicated library which uses the latest Telegram APIs (Layer 57) and I will begin the integration on Sailorgram next month, after that I will begin a new (public) 0.9 beta testing session during the end of November (if the integration goes smoothly).

The new secret chats implementation will be added during beta testing sessions and they will be available out of the box in the stable 0.9.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

As promised:

SailorGram 0.9 BETA 1 available for testing: Link :)

There is still a long road ahead, but it's promising.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I didn't receive activation code so I switched back to 0.80. Then I got the sms. After activation I saw that the previous codes had been sent in telegram though...

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

comfirm... but i receive on my desktop pc. Works smooth :)


@dex you write v0.9, in the Link is 0.89-10, and its not possible to change the language (or is this missing?)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Yes Telegram sends the activation code in another client, I will change that in the 2nd BETA (usually I prefer a telegram message instead of a sms during testing).

0.89-10 is correct: Usually I will increase the version number to 0.90 (or whatever version) only when it's stable enough to be released on Open Repos :)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Hallo, Dax !

It seems that Sailorgram does not send to telegram server phone numbers from address book. Am I right ?
This is very good !

Nimip

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

No, currently it doesn't :)

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Dax, I love you !
and hope that Sailorgram will never send my numbers to Durov's server in futher versions.
and sure will contribute more.

yours faithfully

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I missed the code at first installation and now I'm stuck in "Sending request ...".
Downgrade to openrepos version does not help either.
Also, you should disable Next button untill user enter a phone number with at least 5 digits. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1...umber#17814276

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Have installed android version and got a message "Too many attempts try again later". Seems that my account get locked for while. :(

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

I didn't miss it. But I'm in roaming and will be for a while and I'm not getting it. Why do we need a code if we were already registerd?

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

if I check daemon option to keep running even closed and then I closd app keeps running in background but it won't opens anymore..I have to kill it in terminal and restart it again..

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Private chat is no longer available.
Even daemon is running, gui can not be started and every attempt to start gui will send me a new telegram sms code. I need to close daemon in order to have gui working and again I get a telegram sms code ...

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

private chat were never available on sailorgram...there is the menù but they are not working and they will be implemented at a later time, as for the daemon, since the app is being completely rewritten from scratch, the daemon is not working right now so you need to disable it in order to make sailorgram work...it should be already written somewhere...anyway fear not because dax is working hard and daemon together with other missing features will be implemented over time...

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

What's the status of this? Abandonaware?
Telegram got a bunch of new feature recently.

Re: Telegram on SailfishOS
 

Sadly, now sailorgram is not currently developed :(

but python programmers can make easily a native telegram client: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Telethon/

I hope someone is interested in it
