[bug/question] How to get signal messenger working on XA2

So far I can receive Signal messages on my Xa2 running Sailfish, but can't send anything. It even looks like Signal isn't sending anything back to the server (my contacts said they couldn't see if messages arrived and they didn't get a notice for a new key when I re-registered with the Xa2, while they did receive both from the Signal I use via my Jolla1)

Since I read that another user got Signal working by just waiting a long time for the first messages to send [1], I registered Signal with my work number and tried that.. and that worked! But, I tried to also register my normal number and that didn't work.

I tried: - Waiting for more than 12 hours - Changing from mobile data, to wifi, to hotspot (via the Jolla1) - Editing the Android settings in Sailfish and gave all apps unrestricted data-acces and no battery-saving settings - Put location services and bluetooth on/off - Re-registered the Xa2-Signal multiple times - Re-checked the Signal-key for my contact - Set the dissapearing-messages-time again - Cleared the cache of Signal and rebooted the app - Rebooted the phone

Any ideas on what to try next?

Specs: - Xa2 'normal' single sim (not the plus, not the ultra, the basic Xa2) - Sailfish 3.0.2.8 - Signal 4.37.2

Since I read that another user got Signal working by just waiting a long time for the first messages to send [1], I registered Signal with my (previously not registered to Signal ever) work number and tried that.. and that worked!

  • Waiting for more than 12 hours

After two days of trying the things below I tried reconnecting my workphone to Signal on my Xa2 again (and waited at least 8 hours for something to send) but that doesn't seem to work anymore now either.
