Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build) - some feedback
So, had a little free time the day before yesterday...
1. Gathered all needed pieces and software. Using pure 64bit Mageia Linux here, so made sure, that I had 64bit make_ext4fs. 2. Started to unlock bootloader. Remembered that Mageia's fastboot is named "fastboot-android" :) First try was unsuccessfull - realised that "usb debugging" is not enough, also "unlock bootloader" should be selected in android setup. Now unlocking succeeded. Did not care about DRM keys etc 3. Without disconnecting the Xperia X after unlocking bootloader, changed to the directory where I had all sailfishosx files. Made symlink "fastboot" pointing to "fastboot-android" and as sudo is not used in Mageia got root privileges with su. Started the flash.sh script. Went to get some coffee as the flashing should take several minutes, but when I returned, the process was over. 4. Started Xperia X with SailfishOS. Initial configuration & tutorial. Seems to be OK. Turned the phone off. 5. Yesterday started following tips&tricks updateing the software, enabling bluetooth, doubletap etc. 6. Upgraded to 2.1.2.3 :) 7. Installed estonian-community-translation-jolla - thanks to the Estonian translation team :) 8. Took out SIM card from Nexus6&LineageOS14.1 and inserted in Xperia X and lived with it as my primary phone until today morning. Some additional remarks: 1. 128GB SD card (exfat) was not mounted even with the "Bleeding edge sd-utils". Changed the filesystem to vfat and that was OK. 2. Only 3 Ambiences are selectable. 3. Doubletap wake does not work all time at the first try. Usually there are several attempts needed. 4. Opening e-mail's for reading is very slow... 5. During the call the volume is very low even at maximum level. Not usable at street noise level... 5. No internet connection sharing (actually a showstopper here) 6. xmpp conversation options are very basic - no support for "message carbons" or "message archive management". Is it possible to join xmpp conferences? 7. Not possible to install any openrepos.net client (warehouse, storeman) Finally - of course many thanks to m4r0v3r for creating the image and also BluesLee and others for valuable information to workaround issues :) |

So if you don't have any problem using windows it's probably the best way to go the official route and use emma. If you already have an community build installed and don't want to use windows the instructions at the top are probably the easiest but if you don't have an community build installed and don't want to use windows the instructions I linked are the way to go. Keep in mind that all emma-less ways are strictly unofficial right now. |

I already have a community build running. So, I did what is explained at the 1st page of this thread. But if I look at the instructions "The Linux Way", the only difference with the current flash.sh file is to replace "fastboot oem $BLOBS" by "fastboot cache $BLOBS", am I correct? So, the instructions displayed at the 1st page of this thread were just to put the blobs on a dedicated partition (as you explained in another thread). Am I correct? |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build) - some feedback
Quote:
The instructions at the top of the first page skip the flashing to cache step and directly copy the blobs from the old blob-location to the oem partition. |

Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
I flashed my Xperia X (F5121) at the weekend and I´m enthused.
After the Blog-posts "Introducing Sailfish X" and the "New Flashing-tool" I was a bit dissapointed first and had no high expectations. But what I see already in the community-build is awesome and I use it as my daily driver. Great thanks to m4r0v3r for the Image. There is only one little thing I miss in this Sailfish-Image, but for me its very important namely the loading of Kernel modules, which seems to be unsupported. Missing directory: /proc/modules and /lib/modules/3.10.84-g005c3d7/kernel. So I can't get mount.cifs running. Is it because of community-build or do I have to do it in another way? Maybe the support of loading kernel modules will have to be activated before building Sailfish image? Up to now, here is my experience with the Image: - Bluetooth: Pairing my Xperia with my linux-pc and with my car (no rSAP) works out of the box. No problems detected. - GPS: seems to work. (Tried it only with App "GPSInfo" from JollaStore). - SD-Card Automount: Not out of the box. But after copying the related files from sd-utils (https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/...ls/tree/master) to the Xperia, enabling the service and restarting udev it works now like on my Jolla1. - Wake-on doubletap: Works after installing mce-tools, (mcetool --set-doubletap-mode=show-unlock-screen, mcetool -i disabled, mcetool -z always) - VPN: Works for me. The connection to my own openvpn-server is stable. But the GUI needs a bit adjustment: If you have a Password-protected key you must create a plain-text file with the password in it and link to it in the GUI-VPN-advanced config. IMHO it is not good to have the key-password in plain-text on a mobile device. Even if you chmod it to 600. Than I can also leave the password out. To replace the standard nameserver with the vpn-nameserver, you must edit the connman.service to start connman with the --nodnsproxy option and add the nameserver in the vpn-config with connmanctl in terminal. (No settings-option in the GUI). - Browser: Almost no problems. The only wrong view I have is on a special site of my iobroker-server. Maybe some problems with javascript. Not so bad, webcat can do it. - Camera: Only better than Jolla1 but OK for me. - Videorecording: doesn't work. - Compass: Doesn't seem to work. (Tried it only with App "GPSInfo" from JollaStore). Altogether the Image seems stable. Additionally, no connection issues occur since the weekend (knock on wood), which is especially important for me with regard to cellphone connection. With my Jolla1 I had often connection issues. Regularly, I had to restart ofono once a day. |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
It's not so clear for me why the community build can be flashed directly after unlocking phone while official build require us to first flash Android using EMMA...
What does EMMA's Android add to the device? Isn't it the stock image we already have when buying Xperia? |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)

I can confirm though that flashing the update with the unofficial flashtool also works fine for unlocking that partition so that's a much cleaner way then the other ones I described :) |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
But starting from unlocked factory image, I didn't use flashtool to install community build; it only required me to install adb and fastboot.
Why should I need flashtool/EMMA for official sailfish? |

now it's more clear. Do you think after updating Sony image (using Emma or unofficial flashtool) we could install (official or community) Sailfish X simply using adb/fastboot ? EDIT: You answered my question there: https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...postcount=1377 |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
After upgrading to 2.1.2.3 my GPS stopped working. After a short debug session, I noticed that the geoclue-hybris is not launching. It fails to launch because of this:
/usr/libexec/geoclue-hybris: symbol lookup error: /usr/libexec/geoclue-hybris: undefined symbol: _ZN14NetworkService9connectedEv Which library should provide the symbol mentioned above? I wonder if I have a wrong version of some package? I can work around the problem by disabling the Mozilla-thingys in positioning settings. |

Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
Yesterday I put a sim card in the xperia first time. It was on for e very short time, because by mistake I deactivated it at settings->SIM_cards. Now it is gone forever.
reboot: not PIN asking, no gsm indicator at the top right, settings->SIM_cards says no SIM card inserted. If I start the csd tool, the phone asks for the PIN. And on the second test csd shows PASS. But at settings->SIM_cards still no card inserted. Any hints? Don't try the same! |
Re: Sailfish OS on Sony Xperia X (community build)
I figured out why the wifi and cell signals weren't working. Apparently if the phone is in airplane mode in Android, and you flash Sailfish, the radios are completely disabled in SFOS. I flashed back to Android, disabled airplane mode, flashed back to Sailfish and the wifi works. Camera and lockscreen are also working now; no idea why airplane mode would affect those.

lvscan on my F5122 output same errors on the same blocks on live system. PS Make sure you resize in recovery. |

"Filesystem at /dev/sailfish/home is mounted on /home; on-line resizing required" Did you carried this out in recovery mode? Did you do something prior to this that left the partitions mounted? Quote:
Flash again and then make sure that the partitions are not mounted before trying to resize them. |

If I remember correctly, then the only working 3 ones were: freedom, salamander and silence (or was it calm?). The others just did not switch to...
