Hi:
I'm trying to use very recent Gemini-relased Sailfish 2.1 that is now available as part of the new quad boot firmware on my X27, but am having a problem with telephony.
The signal strength icon shows no signal, and when I try to make
a call I get the popup message "no network coverage".
It's a t-mobile SIM which works just fine with the latest Android
with the Gemini in the same location.
I also note that when I first boot Sailfish, it appears to have full signal
strength, which then goes to zero strength a few seconds after the
boot is completed.
Is anyone else encountering this?
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to diagnose or fix this?
I'd really like to be able to avoid using Android.
Thanks.
reply from Jolla
I also submitted my question to Jolla, who kindly and swiftly replied suggesting I use ofono logging. I sent them the logs and they replied as appended.
So, it seems that telephony is not yet working under the latest Sailfish.

Anyone know how to speed up the GPS on S8500 Bada 2?
Sometimes, it doesn't even connect and makes me crazy.
I think GPS is useless on Wave
Yes, GPS is very slow. For me, that is one of the two big 'let downs' of the Wave. Don't get me wrong, I think the Wave is a lovely piece of hardware, except for the GPS. To find out if the GPS is working at all, do the following:
1. Enter *#7092463*# (This will get you into the internal menu)
2. Select 4. Module Setting > 4. COMM > 2. Lbs (This is your starting point for several adjustments)
3. Select 4. Settings > 5. Assist Method. Select AGPS (This will make sure, that the phone uses only the internal GPS, and it's not aided by network location)
4. Now go back to the Lbs menu (starting point as mentioned earlier). Select 1. Tracking test. (Start it preferably outside or close to a window, this will help with reception).
You'll see a list of data: GPS-time, Latitude, longitude,.... position source should be GPS. Now you just have to wait. This could take longer than 10 minutes, the first time. So just be patient. After that, it probably takes 2-3min, depending on reception.
What is also suggested by many others, is using the app "GPS status". If you want to get a quick(er) lock for navigation or some sports tracker, start that app up first. Wait to you get the lock and then start the app you want.
Hopefully this will help you. Good luck!

Hi All,
I am having a lot of problem with the internet data on my phone; I can browse and use any internet required app when using wifi but I am unable to do some things using my Data plan.
Whats weird is that I can use whatsapp, olx or facebook messenger to send text messages but cannot send images through them, I am able to play games such as Clash of Clans or Clash Royale but I cannot use Uber because it just keeps signing in but it never does.
At this point I don't think theres a problems with the hardware but with a specific setting I may need to modify (May be wrong though)
Heres what I've tried so far:
- Factory reset
- Reset Network settings
- Erase and add all of the APNS for my phone company
- Check on the mobile data (enable and disable) and enable roaming data.
- Made sure the SIM fits properly on the slot
- Uninstall and reinstall all the apps that I have had problems with.
- Everything tested ok when using wifi but it starts happening when I start using my mobile data.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, I love the phone but am pretty disappointed on this situation I am having, Am even thing of maybe go back to Android 6.0 and see if 7.0 is the problem
Thanks!!!

Hi,
You need to check your sprint account and check if there is some restriction on your phone number
I had the same problem, everything ok with wifi but data partially working.
What i did is install the HiddenMenu apk then:
-LG Hidden Menu
-FieldTest
-NAO Test
-NAOT
-NAOT Settings > Enable > NAO Carrier: i selected ATT.
Then i restarted the phone and voila.
When i restart my phone i get an anoying Activating Device Popup. What i do is unlock the phone before it appears and when it comes up i slide down the notification bar and go to settings many time until the popup dissapears.

I can no longer change my Caller ID, on my Mi Max 3.
I believe it just had an update and before this, I was able to change my options from Hide ID, System ID or Number Only ID... now it's grayed out and gives no options.
I use this option, quite often. How can this be fixed?

Thanks for the reassurance that I wasn't losing my mind, lol...
I've also found some other issues...
Whenever I'm try using the speech to text, on the keyboard, it will not dictate.
When I use the speaker, the mic picks up the speaker out up and echos. The person I'm talking to, hears a bad echo. Also, I use the built in app, to auto record my calls and when I'm on a call, in speaker mode, the recording has bad echos.
Is there a way to revert back to Miui 11? What benefits does 12 offer, anyways?

I tried to flash back miui 11 but it is not working now or forever (without full wipe - dirty flash). Benefits? Well miui 12 has a higher number then miui 11 so.......I have no idea I was hoping for some bug fixes, but for know I don't see too many important changes.

Yeah, seems like nothing more than a major cluster phuck
Still looking for answers
I have a few questions regarding the new update.
1. Does region matter?
I have a RETEU device, is there a reason why flashing the RETBR wouldnt work?
2. Is it worh it? Are the features (mostly design and privacy interest me) Android 12 promised there and functional?
3. How is the battery life on it?
I would love if you guys could help me out since i am very exited about the new features!
Also is there a Third Party Android 12 ROM, or GSI or something, any of you guys have used and recommend that is somewhat functional as a daily driver?
Thanks and much love!
No harm in waiting... 12 is a mess across all devices.
I bailed with Adroid 10 and don't regret spurning 11 and up one bit. CPU cycle sucking scoped storage became mandatory with 11; 12 is likely worse. I would research this first.

Hey,
short feedback from my experiences since upgrading to Android 12 in Germany.
1. Sorry, no idea.
2. Privacy features seam to work fine. Only problems I experienced are the following.
- You can now deny new / formerly hidden permissions. Denying them can brick apps. (example denying the "alarm / reminder" permission bricks the app "Notebook" until permission is granted again).
- All quick access setting have to be sorted again.
- new "deny all microphone access" in quick setting does what it should. For me it did it's job too literally. My interpretation "deny all apps except calling" but all MEANS all (yeah I know obvious... duh....).
3. Haven't performed any special comparisons but it feels same or maybe even a bit longer.

Hi,
to be honest, I have no idea what you mean. I guess I'm too much of a noob regarding Android internals. I mean no offense. Would you be so kind to briefly explain this? Thanks
--------
Some of my own experiences / questions.
Background:
I'm using my device with the work profile to keep annoying apps at bay.
Using "Shelter" app.
Using "Aurora Store" in work profile to install apps.
No factory reset was performed since upgrade.
Not rooted.
Problem:
Since the upgrade to Android 12 I'm experiencing an quite annoying bug. Using the "phone" app (private profile) I have no sound and microphone sometimes. So I can't hear and can't be heard. If I'm activating the work profile and use the "phone" app (again from private profile) I suddenly have sound and microphone.
Fix / workaround:
Another way to "fix" this problem is to reboot the phone. After reboot it works for an undefined time. I haven't tested if the problem starts after using work profile and deactivating it again. I'm testing it and I'll try to not forget to post an update for others.
FYI:
BTW if sound from other apps does work, wasn't tested until now. If you need to call you normally have no time for testing, so reboot it was for me.
Tested solutions:
Tested some general "solutions" from REDDIT & Co.
Editing settings in "Sound & vibration" -> "Audio effects": recommended "activate Dolby ATMOS". Phone doesn't have that so i resetted the setting (after tapping "Audio effects" tap "Settings" at the bottom then tap 3 dot menu and tap "Reset")
- DIDN'T WORK
Suggestion it's a carrier problem
Set network selection to manual and select your corresponding network.
- DIDN'T WORK
Deactivate or activate "Wi-Fi calling". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
Enable or disable "VoLTE". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
My questions:
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Has anyone found a solution?

Great formating and great feedback! Thanks so much!
The first point seems irrelevant anyways since the update is now for RETEU too.
I might try to upgrade tonight but i might wait a bit since i try and degoogle my phone as much as i can so i will probably soft brick it once or twice.
If I run into any of the issues you have i will come back with more feedback!
Regarding what BlackHawk said, from my understanding somehow the new scoped storage feature ( that allows apps to have access to only selected files and folders instead of device wide storage access) somehow messes with the CPU.
He most likely knows more but thats just my basic understanding and interpretation of what he said.
Thanks again and have a great day!
Hey all,
I have had issues with my smartwatch since updating to android 13, and I have seen others having simmer issues. I have found a fix!
Go to
Settings > Apps> turn on Show system apps
Scroll to Bluetooth
Tap Battery
Set it to Unrestricted
That's it, my bluetooth devices work as intended now
Thanks! I was also going through the same problem and the above solution helped me fix it.
