NFC: one of the problems is that there are no radio passing translation between the GNU/Linux layer in Sailfish X and the Android layer inside the AlienDalvik compatibility (there are currently no BlueDroid inside AlienDalvik).

So even if NFC get better supported inside Sailfish X, most of the Android applications won't be able to use it yet.
You'll be stuck with the few native Sailfish application that make use of it (so initially mostly "Other-Half" -like NFC chip detection).

Forget about NFC payment initially (the payment processors won't open their protocols to let some 3rd party make a free/libre open-source app on github, and the official apps from the payment processors won't work neither).

XA2, isn't amazing for comparing Xperia X, so I hope we get official sailfish for high end device like Xperia XZ2.

Sure XA2 brings usb-c (still usb 2...), bigger battery, little bit better cpu and bluetooth 5, but that's meh.

Also that snapdragon 630 got weaker cores than 650 so that makes it little bit less good..More cores is bad thing many ways like application not optimized so well for many cores like eight.

Second thing is Jolla need use much of time for optimizing Sailfish for eight cores. Yeah I know that it's manufactured with smaller chip (14nm vs 28nm), that's good side of this newer snapdragon!

And then similarities 3gb ram, same crappy "ips lcd display" and Sailfish gets same **** camera performance.

Oh and no ac-standard wifi, no thanks...

I miss/ didn't mention everything on this message but you get my point.

New upcoming bezel-less oled Xperia would be crazy with sailfish! I would buy even double price if I can buy that dream phone.


But that's my opinion do not set war for this please.

Anyways I eagerly waiting upcoming Early access 2.1.4 lapuanjoki update since january..

Hmm perhaps not easy. But seems Mozilla did some work on that for FirefoxOS.
So, it may be worthwhile looking into that?

At least, i dont think it should be impossible

Does anyone know if there's a way to do a "glove mode" with Sailfish?
You could try:

Code:
devel-su echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/input/clearpad/glove
Does the SCR50 work with this option enabled?

As far as I've understood by quickly skimming it :

- this is about Firefox OS being able to use "bluedroid" as its BT daemon (like most android) instead of "bluez" (like any full-blown GNU/Linux), to make the life of potential community ports easier.

So it's basically the reverse.

What you would need is the opposite : make BlueZ show up as "bluedroid" inside aliendalvik to android apps

Which currently hasn't been done yet.
It's not impossible, just not done yet.
(It's an effort that will also be useful for other android compatibility layers, such as andbox)
