Yes, but only if it supports VoLTE in my country. I have a 10iii which is VoLTE capable but VoLTE is not supported by Sony where I am and as a consequence none of the mobile providers recoginse the phone for VoLTE connectivity.
When 3G is switched off in a few months I will have no choice but to use another OS.
From the research Iāve done, itās both a Sony issue and a mobile provider issue.
Sony donāt sell mobiles in our market and therefore donāt install the profiles for the local mobile providers.
While itās possible one of the pre installed profiles may work, since Sony donāt support my local market, the local mobile providers will not recognise connections from Sony phones. This is apparently on the basis they donāt want the hassle of having mobiles that donāt work correctly on their networks.
SFOS on C2 still doesnāt have reliable email or Bluetooth IME and it feels like Iām carrying a roof tile around with me. I might be on the edge of that rant, but Iām not complaining about slow development, just the failure to fix basic problems.
Whatās the issue with email, seems to me to be the same as XIII, bluetooth also similar (except also now possible in android with āhacksā)? C2 is slow and has c2 specific wifi issues I never encountered on XIII, but email/bt are not
I still drive the same Land Rover I did when the J1 launched. Bluetooth either canāt see the car, wonāt connect at all, or wonāt reconnect, in most SFOS versions. Curiously it worked in most of the community ports (not in the early Pro1 ports I remember). It might have been eventually fixed in later iterations of major releases, I donāt recall exactly. Itās never been a problem with any Android or iphone or dumbphone Iāve tried.
No idea about using bt in the android emulator, Iāve never had any reason to try it.
Email silently stops logging in to my various email accounts, on various servers, and the only way I ever get them working again is to delete the accounts and recreate them. From memory, a combination of it being difficult to get debug info, and difficulty changing some of the account settings after creation. It may be related to moving between wifi and cellular connections, Iām not sure. Again, never seen a problem using various linux pcs, android phones and tablets - once email works, it just keeps working.
This isnāt the thread for a longer discussion, but maybe I should pull the C2 out of the junk drawer and give it another go.
Yeah definitely do that, especially now that email/calendar wizard dcaliste has joined jollaās team, if you can pinpoint the problem it has a high chance of getting dealt with, maybe a separate thread is a good idea
Here is my assumption, the new phone will be a slightly customised model of an existing Reeder(?) phone with better specs than the C2. The price of the new phone would be 100-150 euros more expensive than C2, and in my case i had to pay 60+ euros on top import tax.
That will make the phone marginably cheaper than Fairphone6ā¦
There are some instructions to add such operator profiles in the VoLTE thread. My attempts were not successful.
I tried to copy the profile based on the physical network I think they use (I am with Nowo now part of DIGI, which does not own antennas and uses those from MEO, according to some internet forum)
At the moment there is not one phone that can do what I want. My Volla22 doesnāt show a calling menu. I managed to revive my 10 III, which really made me happy. To my surprise the echo is now manageable when I tap on speaker after that the other started talking. Exported Threema Libre to it. An important tool to me because my family lives abroad. I can see them during a video call but they canāt see me because the connection with camera fails. Frustrating. I desperately want to use a Sailfish device daily, but it lacks some features. Donāt know what to do now.
I voted no. I already have Xperia V in the drawer waiting to be in daily usable state. But it is not and why should I buy another one, whose future is still unclear?
