WFM. No warranty

Edit: (And you probably can escape to the root directory of Jolla by similar commands but I haven't tested this. There is danger that you can brick your Jolla with escaping to root and then going around and fiddling, especially if the permissions and priviledges are not right.)

There you are.

Thanks bockersjv,

That last "you can brick your Jolla" sort of worries me

I hope someone can help...

[...]tap on "Import contacts from"[...]

I don't see such an option, even after copying my .vcf files on my Jolla.

Go to settings then transfers then the vcf files will be listed but just under the name file.
Best advice is tto put all the vcfs into one file.

You can always use:

Code:

invoker --type=generic vcardconverter your_file_name.vcf

But first it is best to to join all your individual .vcf files to one big file. Use cat command.

PS. Is there a way to EXPORT Jolla contacts to vcf?

I can personally live without the LPM (although it's hard), but what I really miss is folders in the icons view. I had many applications installed in my N9 but it wasn't messy because I used folders. With the Jolla I can't and that's really irritating. Only if you have more than one page of applications it starts to look messy. I really hope they'll add support for folders later on...

Hopefully it isn't that hard to compile it... then again, I'm not sure why I'd want screen or tmux on the phone :-D

Can't be hard, but Learning Another New Thing must be postponed for a few more weeks..

Having a terminal multiplexer is quite helpful for any ssh action to the phone. After all, it'll soon be time to bootstrap Gentoo Prefix on the Jolla.
