I've had issues to install the jolla-st9 package. Thanks to alin on IRC, the issue is solved. So if you're permanently asked for credentials when running "zypper in jolla-xt9", try the following in root:
Then, you should be able to install jolla-xt9, and you've to reboot the phone to get the predictive keyboard.

I was out of the loop for a long time, waiting for Jolla to release T-Mobile compatible handset, but it started looking like a futile endeavor, so I recently "joined the club" and now I'm using Sailfish on Nexus 5 
Did anyone manage to install Meecast lock screen applet there? It fails for me.

I'm using alpha 12, I didn't know alpha 13 is out. At least I don't see it here http://images.devaamo.fi/sfe/hammerhead/ and any mention of it here: https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Ada...for_hammerhead
I didn't follow this thread, so I must have missed tons of stuff

Will the new Nexus 5 be as compatible with Sailfish as the previous one ?
https://www.androidpit.com/nexus-5-2...specs-features
So I'd rate the chances of Sailfish ports for both as quite high. Higher than any other forthcoming phones, at least.
On the information available, I'd lean towards buying the N6. Whilst I don't really want a phone that big, the new N5 has an extremely large footprint (lots of bezel) for a phone with only a 5.2" screen, which is quite disappointing. Also from what I've heard it'll be IPS and the Huawei will be OLED. Don't quote me on that though. New N6 will be 5.7" rather than the gigantic 6" that the current (highly unpopular) Motorola is, so I expect a lot of the people who want a Nexus phablet will jump on it.
There'll definitely be Ubuntu Touch ports, so I'll be getting one or the other. If Sailfish fails to improve or ports don't materialise, I'll have back up .. plus the myriad of Android ROMs that will appear.
