*.apk installation and calDAV/cardDAV synchronisation fail
asked 2015-01-02 15:21:50 +0200
Hello jolla-users,
i have two problems with my new Jolla phone and updated the device already to the latest version of sailfish OS.
problem: Installation of *.apk files does not work! [SOLVED] I wish to receive Android apps via f-droid, but can't install it on the phone. Neither the fdroid-store app, nor the individual applications can be installed. I tap on the file but nothing happens. On the system settings the same as via the file browser from the Jolla store. I have already allowed the installation of third-party software in the settings. I also tried to download the file once via Wi-Fi and 3G once, because I read reports in the Jolla-store, that files downloaded via Wi-Fi would not work correctly in the file manager. But this also make no difference. Is it already a known issue?
problem: calDAV/cardDAV synchronization does not work! My provider for email, contacts, and calendar is mailbox.org from Germany. While the mail traffic via IMAP/SMTP works without any problems, synchronizing calendars and contacts will not work at all. It is possible to creat the accounts on the phone, but no information is synchronized. I know that this function is still an experimentel part in Sailfish OS, but i would like to ask about whether there's someone here who could synchronize successfully with this provider.
I hope someone has a tip for me, what I could try to solve this problems. Especially the first problem really bothers me. But otherwise, I'm really happy with the jolla-phone and the software! I can't wait the version 2.0 is released. And a great excuse for my bad english, I hope you can understand my concern. :o(
Many greetings from Germany
Did you install android support? it's a separate app from the jolla store. i am a mailbox.org user too, for me at the moment only caldav works.

I have used the same login data as with Thunderbird on openSUSE 13.2, however without success. But I don't know what information to use for "Kalenderpfad" in the DAV-settings on the Jolla phone
