It's a Single-SIM XPeria X.

I understand that "Android store" and Aptoide are the same thing.

I have downloaded Android store and it's marked as installed. But it doesn't show up in my applications section.

I have also tried downloading and installing aptoide from it's website to no avail.

Did you activate "allow untrusted software" and AlienDalvik in Settings? I don't know if that solves it, but it may be a reason.

Yes, and thanks, I've added this in the question.

Is it this: https://together.jolla.com/question/116173/aptoide-disappeared-after-update-to-20010/?
At some point, on a JP1, I had to do this:
cp -i /data/app/packaged/com.aptoide.partners.apk /data/app/
chown system:system /data/app/com.aptoide.partners.apk

That worked after reboot, thanks!

I have run into the same problem (also sailfish X), I lost access to the aptoide store, have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, but it simply does not show up.

None of the suggestions above worked. Would anyone have additional suggestions?
