If you would just ask to get on the mailing list Jolla would at least be able to spread to people who know that they can brick their device. Not trowing it out on the forums and after a while have people complain that their device doesn't work properly.

[Nexus 4 General] syedyasin:

[Nexus 4 General] stskeeps:
Did you wipe data first before installing? And which image, demo or the normal one?
[Nexus 4 General] syedyasin:
Hmm wiped data/system... Installed ROM based on 4.2.2, then I installed cm 1.0.3 and finally installed sailfish 1.0.5.16...

Am in doing anything wrong ??
[Nexus 4 General] oszika05:
You first need to reboot to bootloader (while the device is turned of, press and hold vol. down + power button), then hit start(press the power key once). That should work :D
[Nexus 4 General] AntiBillOS:
But the realy stupid thing is that Multirom not work. Can anybody expain why Firefox and Ubuntu support multibooting, but Sailfish - No?
[Nexus 4 General] guimendes:
Because it is not implemented on Sailfish.

Playing mp3 files on Sailfish

Due to licensing difficulties, Jolla has not included an mp3 codec in the Nexus 4 version of Sailfish.

Of course that doesn't mean you can't install the required codec by yourself. Here's how:

First, open the terminal and obtain root.

Add xerxes2's repo -

zypper ar http://enlisy.org/~xerxes2/pkg/sailfish/armv7hl/xerxes2-sailfish-armv7hl.repo

Refresh repositories -

zypper ref

Install the fluendo mp3 codec -

zypper in gst-fluendo-mp3-0.10.23-1.armv7hl

You should now be able to play mp3 files on your Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 General] oszika05:
It's working! Thanks bro! :D
[Nexus 4 General] syedyasin:
It dint work... :(

Still getting into boot loops...

[Nexus 4 General] RumoredNow:
Wouldn't matter what version of Android you are running. It will wipe everything anyway.

Make a nandroid backup and get started. Flash 4.2.2 from the Google repository > CyanogenMod 10.1.3 > Latest Sailfish for N4.

If you want to revert you always can flash whatever Android you want back onto the N4...

[MENTION=2455489]yellman[/MENTION] yes we have to wait, guys from irc said that there are some issues with licensing like mp3 support, dalvic, store.. etc, so, some things on early stages we have to fix by ourselfs.

[Nexus 4 General] oszika05:

I could do it. Just download and install any apk file, then open it, and it will bring you to the app store, and you can register. But unfortunately, you can't download any app for some reason. Good luck

How can I install apk ? When opening apk from transfers nothing happens, in filetug it shows me details only, not execute this file? Please give somebody advice. I am wondering about aptoide.apk
[Nexus 4 General] oszika05:
I downloaded it from the internet, and I opened it in the transfers(settings>system>transfers). But it was in the first build. I tried that in the secund build, but without any success :(

http://xdaforums.com/jolla-sailfish/general/alien-dalvik-licensing-issue-t2694127

Android app compatibility isn't coming anytime soon. Alien Dalvik is a paid software that is owned by the Myriad Group and it cannot just be bundled with Sailfish OS as someone needs to get paid first. If or when the Sailfish team and Myriad agrees to maybe have a license us with a ported OS can use is unknown, maybe it'll happen or maybe not at all. Thus far it looks to be Jolla-phone exclusive software.

Should be a way to bind android sdcard to sailfish home place, didnt tried yet.

I installed the OS and it worked perfectly. Installed the audio codecs and package manager,etc. Plays mp3 without any problem. But when I try to play videos, there is no image. Sound works but there is no display. Even the browser was not able to play youtube videos, it just showed the loading screen but the video did not load.

Initially the player popped up a message saying GStreamer was missing a plugin. I installed the available plugins from the package manager but no luck getting the video.

Is this a known issue? Or did I mess up somewhere?

Yes, very simple, using Terminal :

- Python 2.7.5 :

$ pkcon install python

Programming languagens available in official Sailfish OS repositories :

- gcc 4.6.4 (with gcc-c++, gcc-objc, gcc-objc++);

- lua 5.1.5;

- perl 5.16.1 (already installed);

- python3-base, python3-devel 3.4.0;

- ruby 1.9.3;

- swi-prolog 5.6.50;

- tcl 8.5.8, tcl/tk 8.5.12 (with mer-tools);

- vala (0.23.1).

Other programming languages are in OpenRepos.net (installed via WareHouse client):

See the topic "Extra softwares in Sailfish using CLI, repositories, etc" in Talk Maemo.org.

[Nexus 4 General] wulsic:
They just got calls working so just wait some time they probably just need to adjust the output of the sound with the call. Sailfishos is still new and not based at android so its different. The good things is that its already working devs also have their own lifes. Just wait for it i believe that it will come next month.
[Nexus 4 General] Zenety:
Android is based on Linux.

Sailfish is based on Linux.

If you know the exact hardware specifications it shouldn't be a problem. That's why you flash Sailfish over CM.

It's their job. This isn't a project that they do in their private time. But maintaining mutiple devices with updates is pretty hard indeed.
[Nexus 4 General] wulsic:
I know android is based also on linux but i mean they don't use android as an base but linux. I know that its their job too but they also have lives they are not coding robots. We just have to be patient just like the people from optimus g waiting for kitkat update which could get ported to our device if they actually get it.

[Nexus 4 General] syedyasin:
Yet you can't install sailfish OS using multirom. U need to install it as single os..
[Nexus 4 General] djcody:
damn, i mixed this with ubuntu touch, thank you sir
[Nexus 4 General] RumoredNow:
Look back a few pages... It can be done, but not allowing multi-ROM to switch you to/from Sailfish on reboot. The only advantage is you don't loose your other OS choices altogether (Android, Ubuntu Touch, FirefoxOS). Those remain as switchable options - you swap in and out of Sailfish by making it the primary ROM or selecting another...

So it CAN be done. It's just not optimal for use and multi-ROM gets disabled when Sailfish is in use...
[Nexus 4 General] djcody:
thank you very much that's a lot info in one post :)
[Nexus 4 General] Sir_gpm:

Hey all,

Has anyone managed to get WiFi working yet on mako?

I'm on 1.0.5 and I've followed the instructions to the letter - flashed the full 4.2.2 image including radio, flashed cm 10.1.3 then sailfish 1.0.4 and now I'm on 1.0.5.

It connects to my WiFi network (WPA2-PSK). I get an IP address and I'm able to ping my router as well. I keep getting a popup at the top saying "Problem with connection".

At first I thought it was a DNS issue, but then I tried to ping external IP addresses (74.125.237.151) and I get "connect: Network is unreachable". So it looks like a routing issue to me..
[Nexus 4 General] Kingzak34:
I didnt got problem with Wifi. Maybe a clean install will solve the problem ?

Be aware that a full wipe, doesnt delete Sailfish forlder, it remains .in /data/.stowawy ( something like this ) ( It's an hidden folder cause of the ".", so use root file explorer or file manager in TWRP to delete it )

Anyway, be sure to be on a radio under 84
[Nexus 4 General] [deXter]:
Thanks, [MENTION=3447252]Kingzak34[/MENTION]

I did do a clean install and I'm on the old radio.

However, it looks like it's connecting fine now on my personal hotspot with my G2 - so looks like Sailfish isn't compatible with my router for some reason. Will file a bug report for that.

On a different note - any ideas how to remove the watermark? I have updated my system via pkcon and it only upgraded lipstick.
