Xperia 10 II + SFOS

Hardware Adaptation
#468

I have issuse getting a GPS signal … not sure what I should do. I’m on 4.1.0.24 / 10 ii. I have good 4G connectivity, and I am also connected to WiFi.

My settings look like this: Sailfish OS 4.1 10 ii GPS - Album on Imgur

However neither in Pure Maps nor in any Android App I seem to be getting a signal. The location-icon in the top bar is blinking when I e.g. open Pure Maps, but no position is shown.

I have also installed the “Positioning - Western Europe” package, however it didn’t change anything. Also I though that this package is no longer needed :thinking:

Any idea what could be wrong? I have also rebooted already, no change.

[edit] Okay just noticed I have a position in Pure Maps now, after I kept it open for about 10 minutes. Also the position is not exactly correct (I’m indoors tho, but on the iPhone the position was more precise).

So getting the position signal just seems to be really slow.

Upon 10II with just these Location settings almost instantaneous result upon Pure Maps, although Here Maps takes a while longer. Did you check results upon Android before flashing Sailfish OS?

You need some time for the first fix for a new device (or one that has been disconnected for a long time or powered down far away from next power up), up to half an hour is normal.

Alright, I’ll observe the further behaviour and see if it improves.

I have a problem with audio cals with the Xperia 10 II.
I tested two different 3.5mm headsets and with both the microphone of the cellphone got used and not the one of the headset. Does anybody know this issue?

Yeah, it’s listed under known issues for the X10-2

Something is up with oom-killer or something else: Android apps at point start closing and/or restarting :confused:

Anyone else here seeing this?

Never saw this on XA2, pretty much identical workload.

I think it might be, across all devices. see this
Haven’t experienced restarting of apps(or of Android Support itself) though

Could add to the fingerprint issues. Suddenly the fingerprint have diapered and hence not able to unlock with fingerprint. Right now i’m getting an error trying to add a third fingerprint. Unfortunately I don’t have any more info on when they did go missing.

INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY: Reconciliation failed…: Reconcile failed: Package com.android.chrome requires unavailable shared library com.google.android.trichromelibrary; failing!

1 week later still not solved :frowning:

Any fresh thoughts here?

I can add that the issue with low Bluetooth volume seems to be gone.

flashlight doesn’t work at all only after a fresh reset, works in camera flash mode
not a fan overall of 4.x, 3.x was much snappier and fast. 4.x introduced so much loading screens
pure maps voice navigation doesn’t work at all
blueltooth only only works once and after that you cant turn it on anymore only after a reset

You might want to investigate the bluetooth and flashlight issues further – I don’t have a problem with either on my 10 II. I just tried turning on and off the flashlight a few times without problem. And I double checked that bluetooth could pair again with my car audio after turning that off and back on, no issues there.

PureMaps voice should work again once a TTS engine is available for aarch64, hopefully soon™. Fingers crossed.

Can’t really make a speed/responsiveness comparison of 3.x vs 4.x on the Xperia 10 II . . . I did find 4.x to be a substantial improvement on my Xperia X in a lot of ways, and I didn’t notice slower performance there. Not quite sure what you mean by loading screens . . . are you referring to the mini-tutorials that appear the first time an app is run? As a long-time user, I’d like to turn those off, but I guess I’ll have seen them all eventually.

App startup times became a bit slower with the introduction of sailjail(4.0). That was said in a recent community meeting. But that might be improved by a Qt update.

flashlight doesn’t work until i restart my phone, went to advance camera picked a dark focus point and the flash turned on in order to focus.
loading screen that was half a joke, i meant the moving circle every time i load an app or open it from the pin code screen.
comparison of 3.x vs 4.x on the Xperia 10 II > i’m talking about the above on the xperia x and i see the exact same thing in 4.1 on the 10ii

Android apps crashing in this manner may have been caused by having Google Play Services official package installed.

Going back to microG, apps are behaving mostly nice again.

EXCEPT for running native Browser for some reason causes all other apps to slow down to a crawl, major lag etc. As soon as I close Browser, everything becomes snappy again. What’s going on with this :thinking:

I do have 332 tabs open in Browser (so nice to just backup/restore across many years of phones), but as they’re just unloaded tabs, shouldn’t have any performance impact?

I’ve long wondered if Browser “live” card in app switcher is actually a real resource hog or not. But this problem definitely didn’t exhibit itself on XA2, so must be something else?

Low memory, apps crashing - change zram settings or add swapfile? [4.x]

Another absolute responsiveness performance murder happens when JS video players render for example in Firefox Android. I close Firefox, boom, instant improvement. This is with 10 other apps open, messengers, email, camera sometimes etc. Not able to pinpoint yet if it’s cross-interaction with sonething or no.

I saw this just yesterday, the first time I tried speakerphone. The result was as if both parties were muted (or at least very, very low volume).
