Hey, great, you are right! Sliding between max and min exposure 3 times set it back to normal I already tried playing around with the slider before, but i guess I never slided from extreme value to extreme value

Is there any possibility that someone would adapt Sailfish for Fairphone 6 ?

looks like a great handset. i’d get it for a SFOS port if Jolla show no impending interest in the (soon to be replaced) Xperia 10vi…

I already have an fp6 and have done some preparations for porting Sailfish to it. No estimate yet how long it will take for me to finish the porting.

Only downside of fp6 is that has only USB-C 2.0 and doesn’t have 3.5mm jack.

Agreed in particular about the 3.5mm jack, I don’t even use it that many times a year, but not being able to still feels like a big downgrade.
The USB not so much for me, a bigger downgrade to me compared to previous models is that this battery requires screws to remove; no more bringing 3 full batteries to an off-grid vacation 
p.s.: Despite my beef with the lacking 3.5mm port, I do have the FP6 neatly in it’s box waiting patiently for mal to work magic

Well, missing 3,5" Jack is really not good, but as i know it was also missing on FP4 and FP5. Missing USB 3 with USB C Video is really a showstopper. I know it is useless for SailfishOS (atm.) but better to have additional HW on board which can be activated later.
Thats a very very bad shop! I change a battery of Sony device in my kitchen!
Who needs 5G as long 4G is available? Can anyone tell me, please? Data speed is usually the same, and for what does a private user need a network response time >1ms? For surfing the web, mail and chat the ~100 ms of 4G network is fine!
For old Xperia 10 one needs 2G for voice calls, and 4G for data is OK. For X10 II and X10 III, also 4G with VoLTE without 2G is OK.
5G with it’s short response times is only needed for IOT stuff as automatic driving etc., or am I wrong?
Regarding thread title: Yes, as often discussed. Jolla appsupport licence for ports would be very fine and is still missing.

is the 4g data something that only presently works on the official jolla ports?
I’m sure il will also work in future. Why not?
I had forgotten to add the package needed for VoLTE to be installed by default on fp4 and fp5. I did that now, so that will get installed next time users run “zypper ref” and “zypper dup” on their devices (as root using devel-su of course).

i think i may have been misunderstood:
does 4g data work on ports?

I just got a Fairphone 4 via Murena, so its currently running /e/ OS. I’m thrilled to hear that VoLTE is now working on FP4 under Sailfish 5—I’m tempted to flash it.
Two questions before deciding to flash the @mal Sailfish image:
- Is the bootloader relockable after flashing Sailfish?
- Has anyone had any luck getting WayDroid to run, or otherwise running Android apps?
I currently run Sailfish on my Xperia 10iii, but I do have a few (maybe 4 or 5) Android banking and payment apps that I can’t access if I don’t have Android. If there’s not any community possibility to run a random Android app or two, I may just run /e/ OS since it is free/libre software, but I prefer the UX of Sailfish.

Of course the bootloader is not re-lockable after flashing Sailfish. Re-Locking bootloader works only on Stock Android or /e/ OS when its Android Patch status is same or newer as the last official Android.

I flashed SF on FP5 without any problems.
The only question I have is: Is there a Storeman package for openrepos available?
The Storman installer does nothing unfortunately.
