Hi Guys, Since I installed Sailfish OS on my fairphone 2 my sim card is not detected :'( I tryed in both slot Could it be because I am in New-Zealand? (2 degree mobile) It use to work with Android in the same device.
Thank you so much jolla for being UNLIKE :-)
Hello Seb, the alpha1 version only support the first sim slot. Before i installed SailfishOS on my phone, i removed the sim card. My provider (here in germany) give me a G3 connection. G4 connection is not available at the settings. Does anybody have G4 on the Fairphone? Or is this a restriction of the alpha1 community version? On my Jolla phone i have a G4 (but this sim is from an other provider).

Unfortunately I cannot help with your immediate issue. The only thing that I can add is that a 2degrees SIM card works without problem in my Jolla phone (all SFOS of 2015 up to 2.0.0.10). So I would assume that should rule out 2degrees as well as SFOS (official) as the culprit.
As you have already proven that the hardware works (same SIM in same device under Android), I wonder where to look next?!? Could that be a problem of the community edition? I understand the porter community has a separate communication channel. May be worth approaching them?
hubat ( 2016-03-24 07:19:45 +0300 )editI would suggest trying a different sim card if possible and if that solves the problem then ordering a new sim from your network provider. I am currently running the alpha1 in my FP2 with no sim-card problems.
