I just received my JP26 phone and made instructed setup, selected microG and Aurora store. Now I try to find how to get them working. In Aurora store, should I select Anonymous user? I get unable to resolve host “auroraoss.com”
Also what I should setup in microG?
I am new Jolla user but I didn’t find any good tips.
I would appreciate any help.
Oh, it seems that browser gets my wlan access but Aurora store doesn’t.
It might be, that Android AppSupport doesn’t get WLAN access connectivity.
You should try to download F-Droid and install latest Aurora store update since Jolla Store Aurora is not latest version
Yes, unless you have some paid apps in your Google account that you want to use. Even though I haven’t ever heard this happening to anyone, but in theory this could lead to your account being flagged by Google and then it is up to them what they do to your account.
It is pre-configured if you install with AAS on the first boot. Only if you want to add your own Google-account to it (I personally haven’t done this, since I don’t know what the benefits are), you have to change the settings.
Can you access the address with your browser? Do other Android apps have access to Internet? Is your ISP blocking the address, or was their server down just temporarily?
Jolla browser has connectivity but neither Aurora or Fdroid stores cannot access to internet. I stop/start Android AppSupport from Settings. No help so far.
auroraoss.com works via browser.
Try rebooting the phone.
Oh yeah, wifi on/off several times and then access appeared globally. Weird but getting forward. S-Mobiili installed successfully. Thanks for help.
But can you really download them? Eve with my Google account in MicroG and also in Aurora store I was not able to use paid apps (at least not such with an in-app purchase to unlock)…
Indeed. There is a difference between applications unlocked within the application, and ones bought through the play store - and because even a small initial payment is a huge barrier, most apps are unlocked-from-within..
I was referring to the app you pay for in the PlayStore, those should be able for you to download if you use your Google-account in the AuroraStore. I might be wrong here, but that is just how I have understood it so far.
In app purchases probably depends on how it is executed. If the app uses their own payment setup, that is tied to some kind of account outside of your actual Google-account, then it should work just fine, but if it is tied to the Google-account, then I don’t think it will work even with microG.
