SYSTEM
The hardware description and SFOS version are listed here below.
- Xperia X10 II dual SIM, model XQ-AU52
- Sailfish OS Jolla-4.5.0.19 qau52-1.0.0.19
- AOSP Android 10.0 kernel 4.14 seine
- Jolla license
Default installation procedure has been followed.
Shortcoming
The GPS should be kept always on because its cold start takes minutes to fix the satellites despite the native MLS packages and several GSM/Wifi position backend services has been installed and running.
Workaroud
Configure the A-GPS as described here:
Shortcoming
Sometimes when after a reboot or after an airplane mode one of the two SIM or both, but usually one, has problem in finding the network and into the native Setting → Mobile network, the related Network field remain in searching. In this case degrade the network mode to 2G only. After the network will be found, switch to prefer 3G and then after the network will be found again, switch to prefer 4G. This seems a slower approach but in fact, it works around the problem⁰
Workaroud
The Settings:System → Info:Utilities → Restart Network Subsystem is the key-workaround and probably it would be better to have an option for each SIM to do it automatically when the airplane mode is switched off.
Solution
Choose the 4G
protocol but restrict your SIM
and modem to operate over IPv4
and ignore the IPv6
:
After that Select network automatically should work.
Shortcoming
Sometimes switching on/off/on from 4G and Wifi or viceversa, the Android apps cannot see the internet connection. In such a case, switch to airplan mode and then back to restore the full connectivity.
Workaroud
The Settings:System → Info:Utilities → Restart Network Subsystem is the key-workaround
Shortcoming
The phone calls with wired headphones have the audio volume too high even when it is at the minimum.
Workaroud
Using a good bluetooth buds pair will solve the problem and free yourself from the wire.
NOTES
⁰ this strategy could be implemented in SFOS automatically as default strategy to avoid the issue.
