CyanogenMod request for Intex Aqua Fish [subjective]

Yes i did research. And people like you said its one of the best device and you should have it. Now i have it i know it has a good GUI but you can not see the beautiful GUI everyday and say it's a good phone. Hardly their is anything that will hold anyone for more than a month. Neither it has any resale value. Most annoying is the call quality. What should i expect from this phone it does not last for more than 8HRS with data enabled. I can not talk to people because they hear breaking voice. I can not use most android apps because it crashes. It does not have VOLTE to work for my JIO. Neither basic neither advanced features work. So whats the use of it ? Not even fit for secondary phone.

First and foremost you have to understand that when someone says product X is the best thing ever they most likely mean "for their own usecase".

You need android apps. You clearly bought the wrong phone then. As simple as that. If you also need VoLTE you should have also looked into the specs and see if it was supported.

As for call quality this might be a HW issue. If yes then most likely it will be fixed under guarantee.

@ApB and you think thats ok that people have to do lots of research before buying a device? Smartphones are complicated things and having to check off a big list of all the features you expect is asking too much.

@allat1place I am not sure Cyanogenmod will help you with the call quality, network reception, or camera quality issues. Its probably easier to try and sell the Aqua Fish and buy an android phone of your choosing than organise a port anyway.

I bought this because it lacks apps and in a hope it will give at least a days backup. I already have an android phone so did not expect this to have all the apps. But as a secondary phone i bought it so when my oneplus 3 runs out of battery i still have a phone that is ON and i can talk to people. When i start from my home with both the phones 100% charge. When i reach office after 28KM of journey my OnePlus has 97% charge where as Aqua Fish reaches to 70% before my primary phone is out of battery before that Aqua Fish is turned off. A phone on which even if i disable data it hardly lasts for 8HRS. When in pocket it like carrying a burning coal.

@ApB In India hardly anyone would be interested in this Phone. I tried selling it but nobody is interested to buy this phone after using it. I am sure its mostly software issue with the phone. This is why i want to have CyanogenMod. SInce same configuration phone if you even see Lumia 650 it has the same processor but works great and even android phones on this processor works great.

The only possible correct answer.

Yes running away from the Problem is the Best answer for broken SailFish OS. People here use Sailfish and most of them would be ready to move to android if these limitations can be removed. So this is the right place for me to make people aware what problem's Intex Aqua Fish have before you jump on this. 2017 SailFish won't exist and our Aqua Fish will be Brick

As you have pointed out there is no Cyanogenmod image to use for Intex Aqua Fish at this time.

I rather put my efforts on SailfishOS. The odds are better, imho.

Definitely efforts should be made before it's too late to save and exist SailFish OS. SailFish is moving like a SnailFish so i have started expecting a Port of Android than expecting SailFish to resolve all the issues and that would be quicker than resolving. If they don't act quick they won't have a user base.

I try to improve Sailfish OS.

You suggest a cyanogenmod.

I compared with Lumia and Oneplus because i have 1. And even compared to redmi or Huawei the same budget phone it is no where close to network reception or call quality. Phone is a phone when basic features work flawlessly not because it has a good GUI. A modern GUI plus a lack of poor hardware which does not allow you to meet your basic expectation of a phone is a FAILURE.

i disagree. coming from old symbian phones i got a jolla and my brother a samsung. both jave pros and cons. we both agree that jolla aand sailfish is betzer lookwise. that its missing a lot of basics in cpmparison, well we all know that. and actually: if xoz do the tutorial you know 75%+ of the thungs you need to know. guess its very intuitive. and i am probably one of the few who didnt know androud before sailfish. cause when i had the first android in my jands it really wasnt adding uo to my expectations.
