Sometimes I complain, but when praise is deserved, it shall be published as well: thanks for the latest release 2.2.0.29 Mouhijoki. Now I feel much more satisfied with my Xperia X/Sailfish X. Just a few improvements were enough to increase my level of satisfaction and become a happy user again:

  • native VPN is working fine again, great!
  • longtime awaited, I can now unzip mail attachments or files in the file explorer natively without going to the command line
  • well hidden in the section of Hardware Adaptation: "Xperia X: droid-system cleaned up to save space in root partition". Yes, it freed about 300-400 MB on my system partition!
  • and I never thought I would like such a thing, but, well, I do love the fingerprint unlocking now, so easy.

There are other minor things improved as well, and still some more I hope to get fixed or implemented soon, but let's put those aside and congratulate now the whole team for this release: thanks again, and keep the good work, looking forward to test Sailfish 3 this year!

From this list I noticed root partition free size increase from 900M to 1.2G. Could not get fingerprint unlocking work on first try. Sailbook is faster now.

And it even feels smoother...but maybe I am biased. ;-)

hard facts:

  • Gallery is now much better
  • QtWebview is much faster and, hence, e-mail client useable again.

Yes, OpenVPN seems to work fine - but still no v6!

Some android apps do work better now. For example "Cozify" apps screen now shows all the buttons so it should (some buttons went hidden still in Lapuanjoki). And I feel that in general Android apps run faster. Nice!

Gallery app is waaaaaaaay better than before! Now I actually can show it to people who are interested in SFOS, before I wouldn't want to show it, it was plain weird... But now, I like it!

One feature I am happy to see is that if I am playing music or a podcast when a notification comes in, it lowers the music or podcast volume slightly and does not obstruct it. Well done!
