Patches by nephros

nephros · 17 September 2021 09:01

I created/maintain a handful of patches on both the Patchmanager Web Catalog [1] and partially as RPMs on Openrepos [2].

This thread shall serve as a discussion/support thread for those, and especially please report issues you may have as I don’t always update to the newest SFOS versions.

Here’s an (possibly incomplete] list, see [1] for the definitive version:

Glass Popups
Custom SIM Names
Email Account in Folder header
Finer Volume Control
Dimmed Launcher Icons
Glass Handles
Improved App Chooser
Quickddit: Accounts on top of Settings
Return old button style 4.x
Topmenu Favorite Ambiences Only
Fuzzy Time
Restart BT in SF Utilities
Remove cross icon from remorse timer [3.3]

*** FAILED ***

JacekJagosz · 9 October 2021 12:57

Return old button style 4.x works for me on 4.2.
I think you meant old pulley menu?

gaelic · 9 October 2021 14:28

Yes, sorry. Of course I meant old pulley

nephros · 9 October 2021 21:13

Is that a 64bit (xperia x10Ii) system?

Because there’s a general problem about library path with 64bit systens.

gaelic · 10 October 2021 08:33

Yes exactly, its on a X10ii.

nephros · 11 October 2021 06:02

Alright, the underlying problem is that on x86 and arm, 32bit systems, many things that are manipulated by patches are located in /usr/lib while in aarch64 (which the X10ii uses) in /usr/lib64.
No big deal, except patches written for one platform will not apply on the other because patch can’t find the files, even though they will be exactly the same.

For any patch that doesn’t apply for this reason, you will have to edit the patch file and find all lines that look like this:

--- /usr/lib/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Silica/...
+++ /usr/lib/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Silica/...

and replace the /usr/lib by /usr/lib64.

Then it should apply.

I have decided against distributing a separate patch for 64bits, for one it’s useless duplication and generates more maintenance work, and also we’re looking into a general solution over at Patchmanager’s Issue #71 .

gaelic · 11 October 2021 07:30

Thanks for the effort. The solution via patchmanager is definitely better than quirking around with each patch.

rdomschk · 20 February 2022 20:10

Hello nephros - could you make in the future a patch mix with Sandbox Indicator and Always show close icon in app-switcher please? I cannot activate both and I love the always show close icons. What I also missed is the patch Notifications count in Switcher. I will try also to build a patch for all tree, but I’m afraid I don’t have enough experience with this.

nephros · 20 February 2022 21:27

Thanks for the suggestion!
I can try though to be frank in the coming days or couple of weeks I will probably not find the time.

poetaster · 20 February 2022 22:03

Thanks! I really missed this and really hate html mail.

poetaster · 20 February 2022 22:32

Just to note here that this issue was resolved with version 3.2? of patch manager. I had to check https://github.com/sailfishos-patches/patchmanager/pull/109

nephros · 22 February 2022 08:10

Please try: Project: patch-sandbox-indicator-combined

relatively untested - this needs Ancelad’s patch activated and goes on top.

rdomschk · 22 February 2022 16:54

Thanks you are faster like me. It works. for me.
Here are a screenshot for the patch description.

nephros · 23 May 2022 07:41

Just replying to bump this, and:

I don’t actively use all of my patches myself. I have updated the compatability with 4.4.x on Web Catalog for those I was able to test.

If you have tried one of my patches and found that it’s working with 4.4, but it is not marked compatible please notify me here.

NB: compatibility does not update if youhave already installed the patch. For the information to update you have to re-install from Web Catalog.

nephros · 23 November 2022 11:36

By popular demand (i.e. two people asked about it :D), I have added Powerdrain on Statusbar to the Web Catalog.

poetaster · 24 November 2022 16:35

I had forgotten this thread! Yeah, patches by @nephros! Could go live on a gaming site! Powerdrain! at Twenty to Two! Or One Forty where I come from

Thanks!

mSorvisto · 26 November 2022 07:42

Maybe offtopic, but out of curiosity what’s that droid icon?

Seven.of.nine · 26 November 2022 12:31

Does it indicate ‘Android support on/running’?
