weeeeell,
I have to say i like the look and feel.
However, what bothers me is:
Not knowing if apps I install are open source or not
Not knowing what data an app can access (contacts ? location ? anything ?)
Not finding a good gps maps app
having the default mail app not rendering responsive emails correctly, forcing to zoom in and ou manually
Not finding how to select text of a page to copy paste in the default browser
Having found only 1 torchlight app after seeing its not a built-in option, and it does not work
To be honest, I don’t think you can say the phone is not limited without android support… hope it will come soon ! The system and UI feel worth it.
edit:when clicking on the “where am i” link, it says something about a missing sailfish os maps package; anyone knows anything ? am i missing a default maps app ?
The network mode setting on my FP2 was ‘Prefer 3G’. There was no option 4G. But after I typed the following command in the terminal:
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.ofono /ril_0 org.ofono.RadioSettings.SetProperty string:“TechnologyPreference” variant:string:"lte"
I got 4G
But please be aware by doing that. Maybe there is a reason, why the 4G option wasn’t included…
Most are, but of course not all. Usually there’s a github link for the open source ones somewhere in the description.
There is no native app permission framework, all apps can access everything.
The Jolla maps app is proprietary licenced from HERE Maps and isn’t included in community ports, othewise there is Maep, Poor Maps, and Modrana are on offer from the community.
