Hi,

I don't see why dalvik would not be available. If the OS runs on the
device, dalvik should be able to run too.

The phone should adapt to my needs. But this is only one problem among

> Don't be so negatif :)


My message was obviously a taunt. However, I am really frustrated by the
phone. After more than one year, it is still not usable for an everyday use.

 The stack just under Silica/Sailfish though, is amazing. A phone with GNU
> Coreutils and Python pre-installed! That's really all I've ever wanted.


The stack is a Linux. Yes, this is what I want too. But the lack of
essential functions is terrible.

What do you mean by "SailfishOS doesn't work well on Jolla"?


I'm talking about essential features that are missing. I won't talk about
the ergonomy of the OS. It is supposed to be revolutionary and I just find
it horrible. Connecting to a WiFi network is a nightmare. But I guess that
it is personal taste.

Non exhaustive list:
- No notification on voicemail. This one made me miss *very important*
messages before I realized what was happening. Today, I have to call my
voicemail twice a day to be sure not to miss one. Even the new ubuntu phone
and firefox os phone works for that. The lack of this feature is, in my
sense, unacceptable.
https://together.jolla.com/question/8779/no-notification-when-new-voicemail/
- Non threaded mails in mail app.
https://together.jolla.com/question/337/option-threaded-view-in-mail-app/
- I had to put a paper under my battery to make the phone work. Otherwise
there is no contact between the battery and the phone and I have random
shutdowns. I know that this problem cannot be solved as it is hardware, but
this is really a shame for a smartphone.
- If you attach a big file to a mail (several hundreds of Megabytes), the
phone becomes unusable. The battery is drained, all applications are killed
randomly until the faulty mail is deleted (which is hard because the mail
app is killed or doesn't work at all).
- Links between facebook contacts and gmail contacts are not saved. Since I
have to reset my phone from factory every 6 months (because this is always
the first thing people ask you when you have a problem), I have to make all
the links by hand again.
- The camera is terrible. I had to buy another phone for business at some
point. I took the cheapest Windows Phone I could find (Lumia 521) and the
photos taken by this phone look better than the one on the Jolla.
- Sailfish utils: this is a useful toolbox but I shouldn't have to use any
of these functions. The phone should be working fine without my
intervention. This menu is the proof that something is wrong.

When I bought my Jolla, I found the interface better than Android phones.
Now, Android has evolved and Jolla has not. Honestly, I would totally give
up on the interesting features to have a phone that works.

Alex.

Hi Himanshu,

Since Sailfish OS doesn't even work well on the Jolla, I would suggest you
to stick to Android if it's your only phone ;). I've been using it since

Android device.

I think it's becoming too personal here. As a fervent defender of pizzas

Apart from that, I think that news groups are a good alternative to forums.
People using a mailing list would be slightly disturbed by the change (as

Sorry for that. I was aware that the topic would be raised in the community

your wall of text. From my PoV, Jolla gave you a chance to state your case

people a bit puzzled by your silence and that cannot move forward because
you're not answering their questions.

It appears that Thomas Perl does not want to talk to you, that is why he
remains silent. So I think the protocol at this point would be to talk to
you and then get back to thp and do back and forth. If you don't want to
talk when it's your turn, then it's also your right, but then don't

Let's put it this way: you are the CEO of a company. You hire an engineer.
After a while, you discover that this engineer has personal issues with a
customer and exclude him from events related to the company because of
that. As a CEO, I wouldn't allow this to happen. No matter your personal
reasons, you have to treat each customer equally. I would understand that
you avoid contact with this customer unless you have to, but the company
should not suffer from your personal concerns. But maybe I'm the only one
thinking like that?

Anyway, I think that this thread was kind of closed by Stefano's answer:
Jolla has nothing to say on this case. If Thomas Perl wanted to talk, he
would have done it long ago. I feel sorry for you Filip but I think you

Hello Stefano,

Thanks for your answer.

> difficult to separate the personal problem sphere from the answer to your

I have tried to sort out the public matter out of all these personal
problems. I'm gonna be selfish this time. I like Python, I think that it is
a wonderful language and may code python applications for my Jolla once
I'll get more free time. Apparently, Thomas Perl is one of the guy in Jolla
to work with Python. If, at some point, I get in personal trouble with this
guy, I hope he won't exclude me from any public event because of that, and
especially using Jolla as a lever.

Believe me, I already experienced a really tricky situation where I had to
work with somebody I had huge personal problems with. And it never affected
professional matters because we put a clear separation between the two. In
this case, some personal matters seems to have lead to a public action:
asking for the exclusion of somebody from a public event.

>From your answer, I understand that such a request was made and motivated
by personal reasons. Again, I don't point any fingers, but this fact will
just add up to the list of all doubts I already have regarding Jolla and
what's happening in the community around.

Re: [SailfishDevel] Discrimination and abuse from Jolla employee Thomas Perl

2014-05-20 Thread Goulagman
Hi Filip,

*TL;DR: read only the bold paragraph.*

I am not interested in personal problems either. However, from what I read,
I understand that you only posted here as a last resort. I think that other
people could take that into account before making any critics.

Your mail is very dense, maybe that is why it is hard for people to give an
accurate answer. So, if I take apart the private concerns, and what
happened before Jolla, that leaves me with two points: IRC and Metalab.
Regarding IRC, I can see on the log that your questions remained unanswered
until somebody higlights thp. But, given the length of the logs, I don't
know if it's accidental or not. So I will left this point apart too.

That leaves me with the *Hack-a-Jolla* event. You claim that Thomas Perl
has asked the organizer to exclude you from the event. I think that this
can be checked easily by mailing Christian Ratzenhofer. For me, this is a
very serious concern, especially because he acts as a representative of the
Jolla company. I think that this affects each and every person in the
mailing list as anybody could be kicked out of any event because of
personal reasons.

*So I think that an official answer from Jolla is required on these
particular questions: Apparently, a request has been made by one of your
employee to exclude a developer from a public event. Could you clarify the
situation? Do you confirm that this has happen? If so, what was the
motivation? Has Filip received proper apologies if this problem was on your
side? Can you ensure that it won't happen again?*

I'm not pointing fingers at Jolla, I just tried to raise up the questions
that are pertinent in this list and could be of interest for other people.

I'm afraid that without any further proofs of people supporting one side or
another, we can't go further on this complaint. But that's only my opinion.

Best,

Alex.

[SailfishDevel] Getting SMS notifications

2014-03-21 Thread Goulagman
Hello,

I am trying to build an application that triggers an alarm when a
particular word is written in a SMS. The first step is to be warned whan a
SMS is received. I have searched but I can't find how to do that. I have an
application using telepathy-qt to send an SMS, so I guess that it is also
possible to be warned when one is received.

Is there a standard way to do that ?
