so please help me to fix this issue.

thanks..

Hi,

Ive been searching through XDA for an answer for you but cant find much specifics on your device, even GSMarena doesnt list your phone

I would ask someone with first hand knowledge of your device or look into the stock roms linked here:

http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/website-japanese-xperias-ftf-t2833391

but you may need to ask in the general Q&A forum found here

best of luck!

thanks demkantor

thank you very much for replying and helping me. i'll try to flash ftf in the link you sent i hope it will work

thanks again
[XDA Assist] hussam2020:
i flashed the ftf file when done my phone is stuck in boot loop problem keep restarting until i remove the battery

am really disappointed. this issue took about one month i cant access network no calls no massages no internet service

if you can find me a backup with cwm + kernel or boot.img file for my phone it may solve the problem.

you are the only one that replying to me please help.
[XDA Assist] demkantor:
HI,

Unfortunately there isn't much else i can help you with as there isn't a lot of information about your device

Status update

Hi,

it's been quite some time since i posted the last message and the first ROM.

I have been very busy and fighting hard to get GSM and mobile data working. That has been a beast as the ofono used by Sailfish is only implemented for RIL V6 and our devices library is RIL V4. That took a lot of debugging testing and backporting to make this work. There are still some nasty hacks in the code but I do have a data connection, can do outgoing and incomming calls (well kind of), send and receive text messages.

The "kind of" regarding calls is because sound is at it's start. We do have basic sound output and if you install the codecs you can even play mp3s. But sound input is completely broken and the sound routing (which speaker/headset) is not even started yet.

Another problem with calls is that all sensors work but the proximity sensor. And because of that the display shuts off immediately after starting or receiving a call because it thinks the proximity sensor is covered.

spiiroin has been working on making the led work but thats untested.

So you see we have been really working hard and sleeping little! I will try to release a Alpha 1 in the next days!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guhl99:
Hi, i did some testing now and have to tell you that this is not very usable as the current mce has support for a cover switch (turns of screen when cover is closed) and our hw-keyboard is treated as a cover switch. So once you opened the keyboard you can only use the phone with keyboard open as if you close it mce thinks you closed a screen cover and turns of the screen (and you can't turn it on with the power key anymore). I will have to rework that logic.

Hi,

I did a complete new port bases on CM-11 and SF 2.0.0.10. It works a lot better than the 1.x builds but i.e. mobile data connection that was already working on 1.x is broken now.

Hi,

Some remarks:

- There is a problem with the proximity sensor resulting i.e. the UI not coming up when receiving an incoming call.

It can be disabled by triple-clicking on the power button.

- When the UI hangs it can be reenabled by just sliding a liitle bit from the left or right edge of the screen

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dr.Colossos:
Hey, I tried your latest release, Alpha 3 - ROM sailfishos-vision-release-2.0.0.10-guhl160116.zip, and I like it pretty much.

Yes, it hangs, and while I got mobile data connection up, it seems I cannot get any data thru (ping to 8.8.8.8 failed).

Also, display brightness is pretty low when setting it to "automatically".

Also, german umlauts (using a german keyboard, where they actually are on, i.e., "ä, ü, ö") do not work ... which is neither a biggy nor a surprise.

Calling etc. works good, however, it crashed hard once I received a call.

Keep it up, this OS/ROM looks really promissing!

Status-update

Hi,

just to keep you updated.

I really started working on that again, built a new CM11 rom for the vision and used it as the basis for a Sailfish 2.0.4.14 port.

Today I finished the first SF build but unfortunately it boots but atm I can not get the hw_composer working - so no screen.

The issue is that the CM-sources that I used to build the CM11 rom are newer than the mer-hybris sources (forked from CM) and now I have some library issues between the libraries in mer-hybris and the once in the installed CM11 rom. I will have to roll back the CM-sources to the last tag these too sources have in common as updating mer-hybris from the CM-sources probably is not an option.

So it will probably take another some days until you are going to see a new SF rom for the vision.

There is some progress:

- Wifi works again

- Keyboard works again (and this time even with backlight)

I do not release a rom yet as I got a memory leak in the build that leads to the phone rebooting 20 seconds after the screen blanks.

Otherwise this builds looks a lot better then any of the previous.

no picture this time. It would have to be a video because after a week of intense debugging, testing and analysing I managed to solve the memory leak.

Hi,

I uploaded Alpha6. See OP for changelog.

Now the phone can be used for phone calls (see remark on disabling the proximity sensor in OP).

I will work on mobile data connection next but this might take a while as ofono got some real structure changes and my patches to make it work with RIL version 4 have to completely rebased.

Remark:

- in the current build the UI is in tablet mode. To change it to phone mode you have to edit the file /var/lib/environment/compositor/droid-hal-device.conf and add the following to parameters:

QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_WIDTH=49

QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_HEIGHT=81

Flashed newest CM and Sailfish, but cannot turn on Mobile data.

Does it have to be done something else than just going to Settings and turning on Internet?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ch3mn3y:
So it seems that the problem is with network, but I tried 4 different SIM cards and still the same and on Android all of them works.

Device doesn't find any networks and when I try to call I get "No network coverage" notification.

Any idea what may be wrong? I have DZ not G2.

I make it works. Next reflash and few reboots and now its OK (still sometimes there is no connection, but at least once for a while it is :) ).

But I cannot install any app for their store now...

Nor mount SD card...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guhl99:
Hi,

sorry for my late response. I've been on holidays and I decided to get offline for some time (very relaxing).

Regarding your issues:

- To analyse the network issues I would need the output of the system log while you are trying to connect (do you know how to use developer mode, ssh and journalctl ? - if not i'll do a short howto)

- Store: The Jolla-Store is not available for ported devices. I would have to ask for Jolla to enable it for a specific device but the rom is by far not mature enough to do so. I did install the Warehouse App on the rom that can be used install "non official" apps from http://openrepos.net/ . Don't even ask for Android App support. First I must not deliver Alien-Dalivik because of licensing reasons and second the device does not have enough resources (RAM mainly) to run Andoird Apps on it.

- SD card: I'll mount it by default in the next rom

btw. Camera is a pain in the ass not sure if i can fix this in the near future (it was enough work to fix it for the CM11 build itself)

Hi,

I suggest you start reading this thread https://together.jolla.com/question/1919/howto-connecting-to-jolla-via-ssh-over-usb/.

There is also a link there on how to do it using WIFI.

Before you try using Developer Mode over USB:

- Go to Settings - USB: set the Default USB mode to "Developer Mode" (the Always ask does not work for me)

- Go to Settings - Developer tools: Check "Developer mode", "Remote connection", set a password (this is for user nemo) and save it

You will see the USB and or WIFI network address there.

Afterwards you can use ssh (on Windows probably using Putty) to the device using the user nemo.

To gain root use: devel-su (and the password of nemo again)

Alternatively this rom has telnet in root mode enabled. To access it use: telnet <USB or WIFI ip-address of device> 2323

After you got root access in ssh or telnet you can use: journalctl -xa to read the historic system log (use pg-up/down, pos1/end to navigate and q to quit) or jounalctl -fa to show only the most recent journal entries, and continuously print new entries as they are appended to the journal (use ctrl-c to stop it).

Try to familiarize yourself with these tools.

If you have a log that you want to share: Copy it from the terminal to something like pastebin.com and post the link here.

Thanks.

Now I need to get phone into state where it cannot connect to Network.

Coz now, after restoring backup, even after many reboots, it's still connected.

Don't know if I should be happy coz it's OK, or not - coz I don't know what and why, and have no way of knowing it...

Maybe it was nothing with the Rom, but something on my side?

I moved form smaller town to bigger city after Christmas, but both have excellent network coverage (at least 2G, 3G and "3,5G").
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androforn:
Just wanted to say thanks...

I relegated my Desire-Z to the back of the draw with much regret. I had been running Cyanogen mod an unofficial build of CM11 which was good and all but still using a relatively old kernel with tons of vulnerabilities. So in the end even though it was my favourite, practical phone I have had in many a year, I had to just bite the bullet and upgrade to something more modern.

But the other day I was just bemoaning the fact that I did not have a trackpad or a keyboard for something on my current phone when I went to look at my old Desire-Z. Was there a new version of Cyanogen out there for it? Well no.. but hang on.. to my surprise and delight I came across this thread. Sailfish on my lill' ol' HTC?! Really? I have to try this.

So I followed the instructions and installed the zips via CWM. All went well. First boo took about 5 mins, but I expected that, then came the set up and the tutorials.. Ok stuck in a few places but turning the phone off and on again seemed to unstick it so.

Basically it is all pretty much working and I am delighted how well most of it seems to work. The capacitive touch buttons seem to do nothing as does the track pad but wifi 3G bluetooth all seemed to work as did the camera.

If there is one gripe that I feel I must report it is that the battery life seems to drain before my very eyes. I know this is only and Alpha build so no biggies this is meant for testing and indeed I am willing to test any way I can.

This was with the v 2.0.0.10 Alpha

I am going to flash the latest Alpha 7 build now and see what has changed :)

Great work though and I wanted to let you know you made my New Year. Thanks!!

Something different

Hi,

As my little one got herself a S7 I got another spare device so I got a bit side tracked working on this: [ROM][17-01-17][Guhl] Thea - Sailfish OS 2.0.5.6 [Beta 1]

The other reason is that I really got frustrated working on the Vision camera for Sailfish so I needed some distraction.

So if you happen to have a 2014 Moto G LTE you might want to give it a try.

It's a lot more stable and snappy then the Vision build but that's not wonder, it has a stable CM12.1 as basis.

But I promise that I will start working on the Vision again soon.

Have fun - Guhl
