Revision history [back]

1. Is Sailfish 3 just continuation of Sailfish X or is that different installation ? Which one is available now for Xperia XA2 ?

2. I have read that there is available trial version for Xperia XA2. In my understanding trial version is time limited version, however in Sailfish the limitation is some functionality (no android compatibility, neither microsoft exchange). Is it possible to run free version of sailfish for a long time at Xperia XA2 or it have additional time limitation (like 1 month or so), except the functionality limitation ones ?

3. What is the browser issue at Sailfish OS ? As I understood there is dedicated browser sailfish app. Is it possible to run Firefox without enabling Android compatibility ? I do not want any part of Android on my phone - that is why I want to acquire Sailfish OS. I would not need any app except browser and alarm clock. I would also not use browser for personal accounts etc but only for one game and few websites that are lets say quite neutral data. If the firefox is not enabled in my scenario, then what about default browser ? Is that safe and is it respect privacy ?

4. Is that possible to set just solid color like black or gray for the background ? All I can see is this Northern Lights theme which I do not like personally (but I admire too, but I am visual minimalist). I would like to set just gray color behind. Is that possible ?

5. What should I care while buying Xperia XA2 dedicated for Sailfish OS ? I have read phone should not be blocked. Do this means blockage of SIM card or something else ? Can I just buy any of Xperia XA2 and run Sailfish OS ? I have read Sailfish support dual sim (H4113, H4133), single sim (H3113, H3123, H133). All of mentioned models ? I would not want to use Xperia XA2 Ultra, neither Xperia XA2 Plus, just classic.

6. I heard in order to use camera in full quality later on (for example one day I would like to sell device or use Android again) - I need to backup TA partition before Sailfish OS installation process. Is that enough to preserve manufacturing quality of all components or should I care of something else too ?

7. Is that something important I need to know before starting to use Sailfish Os for the very first time ? Up to now I have used Symbian on my old Nokia phone and occasionally Android on other device.

If you know answer for only a single point please anyway share with me. Thank you in advance.
