Greetings from Kaupinoja hackday

Hello everyone!

Yesterday we gathered to Kaupinoja Sauna for a planning day which later towards evening turned into a hackday. We were hacking and fixing all sorts of things – and surely having fun!

An update for Sailfish OS 5.2 is coming out soon, we put the finishing touches to the release and sorted out remaining important improvements / fixes. Few small fixes still in the works. Once those issues are fixed and integrated, we are ready to roll it out for all supported devices.

Please check the behind-the-scenes video from yesterday, it’ll capture the spirit of the whole day!

Keep Calm and Sail On! :sailboat:

Sweet looking forward to it :slight_smile:

Alas! Going by the rule of “Everytime you ask delays the target by a week” you just pushed a month yourself! :slight_smile:
Looking forward to the launcher bug resolved.
As I mentioned at German Warntag, is there a hope to have emergency alert updated before Probealarm on oct 3?

Will you also fix Bluetooth with the new update? It stopped working on my brand new Jolla 2026, I wrote to Jolla Service and Support and I’m waiting for a response… Despite everything, I’m happy with the purchase and I’ve been using Jolla since 2013, then switching to a Sony with Sailfish and now this super Jolla!!!

SFOS 5.3 aimed for CBeta in October :open_mouth:

Let’s hope we get it out for everyone in 2026!

They always seem to bring a new point release with a new device, so I’m guessing that is why we might be blessed with two this year. Even though the Callback isn’t for me I’m grateful for the income and impetus it brings to Jolla and Sailfish

Rodolfo, Sorry to say, but as BT is not failing on all J2s, a system update is not intended to solve individual problems. And seeing the related topic, I got the impression your issues were solved?

How does others see the line “Jolla store X intake improvemnts” (X= api or apk)

As I would love read it as a api intake improvements as those would be welcome!

it’s apk, sorry I took the snap at the wrong point. You can download the video and use eg VLC to advance frame by frame.

Yes, then it came back and I wrote directly to the people at Jolla Service and Support 3 days ago, but they still haven’t replied to me.

Well, I have a little bit mixed feeling about that, but if it makes European companies to release even their android apps through Jolla store that could be step to righr direction

Thank you! Can’t wait to see what you guys are cooking!

About audio fixes;
when anyone else with android calls me on my J2 phone, they complain about echo in their voice.
Bugreport:

Can we get Giga-jolla?!

I would love to run that :smiley:
