New binaries / blobs for Xperia V and IV : What is happening actually?

This is last information from community meeting held at 3.7.25 Community meeting on 3rd July 2025 (new time slot) - #6 by rainemak

16:14:17 #topic ETA regarding Xperia 10V support (5 mins – louisdk)
16:14:26 #info louisdk: Is “full” Xperia 10V support in sight for SailfishOS 5.1 or do you have any ETA in sight for it?
16:15:00 #info Jolla: It sounds that you’re seeking for an update for VoLTE, GPS, NFC, sensors status. We are happy to report some progress on HIDL → AIDL changes. One remaining to fix is the VoLTE HIDL → AIDL changes. To be noted that AppSupport is already available for Xperia 10 IV and 10 V. We have not yet branched 5.1 and branching shall take place after summer vacation period. It’s yet to be seen whether we have VoLTE fixed by Sailfish OS 5.1 release. It should not be an issue to have fixes integrated for 5.1 update release after the first release.

edit. so if I would make guess they might publish paid license for IV & V during 5.1 update (probably requires at least VoLTE support) and other functionalities will follow with follow up updates.

I think Rainemak also said that there might still be one 5.0 update before 5.1.

Soon™…
