Known issues:
- Youtube videos crashes browser when seeking
- Camera configuration detection for secondary (front) camera sometimes fails (only during camera module change, update or installation)
- To solve the issue remove /etc/droid-cameradetect-module-main.conf and /etc/droid-cameradetect-module-front.conf and run “systemctl restart droid-cameradetect”
- Repeat the previous instruction until both cameras work (configuration is at /etc/dconf/db/vendor.d/jolla-camera-hw.txt and the validity of resolutions for secondary camera can be checked also manually)
