So I guess I'll make a post of things needing improvements:

- Adding accounts was either bugged or my palm accidentally kept hitting the side of the screen, because account adding seemed to jump to next screen randomly when I hadn't finished adding all the information. (does the touch screen calibrate itself? Seemed too sensitive at start)
- Store bugging at beginning, I'm not sure if the device reset I did fixed it...
- Android support is excellent, but upgrading applications doesn't seem supported at the moment. You need to uninstall program first and install the newer version.
- Android "support apps" don't seem to install (MX Player has separate decoder .apk's for different architectures, they don't install icons, so they don't seem to install at all)
- Android program settings/files can't be reset (My Amazon store has set it's language to Japanese, and I can't figure out how to change it...) (edit3, after enough googling, found out that app settings are in /data/data/ folder. Just removed com.amazon.venezia folder and reinstalled amazon and now I got english.)
- Quite a few Android apps/games depend on Google Play API's, so I think I'll need to add it. But that really isn't Jollas fault.
- In video playback, .mkv video files can't be seeked, they just return to beginning. AC3 audio doesn't seem to be supported. Few other old/bugged files didn't play back or played either audio/video only. Some .mp4's didn't show up in the Gallery app, until I remuxed them with mp4box back into .mp4's.
- why is the audio player named Media, when it only plays audio?
I hope gstreamer updates will fix at least some of these...

These are the few annoyances that I've noticed so far.

But otherwise I've enjoyed fiddling around with my Jolla, so don't take these too negatively

[edit] Oh, and the automounting of SD cards formatted with other than VFAT needs to be fixed, annoying to do it manually every time.
