I don’t believe I’ve successfully sent an MMS on t-mobile US since late last year. And watching some ubports telegram talk about US providers there seems to be a similar or perhaps identical issue there too.
I also noticed today that the download button of an episode in gpodder is missing. As it is a python base app, I will try to investigate what the cause might be.

- SFOS 4.5.0.16 and 4.5.0.18 (Xperia 10 III)
Signal Android app gives notification of a new message two times.
I press the clear button in the event screen but the notification re-appears.
Anyone else getting this? I didn’t find anybody reporting it…
This was introduced with 4.5.0.16.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Apropos of nothing, I’m having a good time with SFOS 4.5, but I see many others with the exact same phone having a rough time with the software. I wonder why this could be the case? I’d imagine since the hardware is exactly the same, that the end result should be mostly consistent? I’m not even referring to cellular network stuff here.

I’m not having such a good time with SFOS 4.5. Battery consumption is terrible. Where I had about 4 days of (easy, mostly idle) use with 4.4, I now have maximum 24 hours with 4.5.

Updated XA2 U DS OTA from 4.5.16 to 4.5.18.
Browser now plays sound but video freezes now while sound keeps playing. Browser is also very slowed up when opening a web page and scrolling.
Battery use is terrible.
Every reboot produces a different problem with either wifi on and sim off or the other way round or both off or sometimes how it should be with both on.
Don’t judge me on this one. Cant remember if i had spellcheck and word suggestion but keyboard is not suggesting words or doing spellcheck. Capitalising the first letter just started working now while typing this.
Bluetooth seems to be working now but took forever to find a device that was previously paired.
In OSM Scout, no GPS.
Edit
Did a clean install and flashed 4.5.0.18.
Most issues I had, are gone now. Except problem with OSM Scout. Still cant get gps lock.

I reply when my 10 arrives, not impressed by the feedback for now :o
Good luck. Please don’t forget that negative feedback is way more visible as most often we don’t bother to report positive one.
I have 10 also and it works nicely for me.

I can confirm the missing icon in GPodder
In RPN Calc (also Python) the delete button is missing as well. Like in GPodder you can tap on the black space and have the function
I encountered two new bugs in 4.5 in the UX around the handling of the app drawer:
First, when I have the second page of the app drawer open, then close it (by starting an app or by an edge swipe) and immediately open the app drawer again by a swipe from the bottom edge, the second page comes up directly instead of the first page.
Second, when I try to tap an app icon in the bottom row, the top menue frequently opens instead of the app starting.
My device is an XA2 Ultra.
I guess, but I understood the release notes such that this bug is supposed to be fixed now, thus I thought it would be useful to mention it anyways.
I know, negative feedbacks do more loudness then positive ones. I’ve a strong familiarity with iOS forums where every releases people start whining about how bad Apple is. So I am way more then prepared for SFOS, that I believe could be more stable then latest iOS hahaha

I do hope you’ll not be disappointed.

Gpodder has a pull request in github to fix this. I fixed it myself on my phone in qml. The name of the icon had changed.
I guess I miss-/overinterpretated this statement in the Release Notes:
Homescreen
- Several fixes for the app grid behaviour
I somehow thought, this would refer to the top menu bug.
Hi jovirkku. I could solve my problem “no android apps/icons anymore after successful 4.4.0.72 → 4.5.0.16 update” in the meantime with help of jolla.customer.care and the community and your help. By advice of jolla.custom.care I gathered log files via this link Collect Persistent Logs | Sailfish OS Documentation. I send them to the jolla.customer.care and they said I should make the update to 4.5.0.18 first. After the update unfortunately again no android apps/icons were there. Then I removed all my installed waydroid files and apps and the file .storage_migration_done from default user/android_storage and made a reboot. Then I again tried on the CLI the commands systemctl restart aliendalviek, waited 1 min, canceled the command with ctrl^C and entered the command systemctl stop aliendalviek, waited some sec. and again entered systemctl restart aliendalviek. Then the status of my android app support button was on ‘running’ (before only a busy cycle was shown). And all of a sudden all my android icons were back on the grid panel and every android app was working like before. Many thanks for your support !!! Now I hope that the next update will work smoothly.

Really like the 4.5 update so far but i have a question regarding the Android icons getting transitioned to Sailfish looking icons - is it meant to be all apps or just a certain type? As i have installed a few apps from the Aurora Store that have kept the normal Android shape and now they look really out of place ;).
To name a couple of them, with the banking ones being UK versions - Virgin Money, Barclays, TallyMoney and Airtime Rewards.
