| akrosi | o/ hey folks, been eyeing an Xperia 10 III with SailfishOS as a more reliable aternative to phones running PostmarketOS, and I'm interested to hear the perspectives of those of you who daily it. what problems might I run into? will I be comfortable if I'm used to firing up a terminal and treating my phone like I do any other Linux box, specifically with regards to mounting filesystems and using wireguard and such? | 20:42 |
|---|---|---|
| mal | not sure about wireguard but terminal in general is easy to use | 20:45 |
| akrosi | I think I saw a plugin for the settings app that lets you add wireguard VPN connections | 20:46 |
| mal | looks like there is such a community package | 20:48 |
| henk | is there any "better" keyboard for writing SMS than just "the dumb keyboard", i.e. anything with prediction/completion? | 20:54 |
| mal | there is completion support in the built-in keyboard, at least in the full version | 20:56 |
| henk | mal: i.e. the one from jolla, sailfish x? I don’t have that … I have a volla/gs290 | 20:57 |
| henk | I cound https://github.com/sailfish-keyboard/sailfishos-presage-predictor and installed it via chum but didn’t get it working yet, I think … | 20:58 |
| mal | I haven't tried that | 20:58 |
| mal | seems to work for me | 21:00 |
| mal | that presage I mean | 21:00 |
| mal | did you change to the keyboard layout in the keyboard? by swiping left or right in the keyboard | 21:01 |
| mal | the presage is one of those | 21:01 |
| mal | henk: ^ | 21:02 |
| akrosi | also, I heard suggestion of Waydroid being used instead of Jolla's compatability layer for android apps, has anyone here tried it | 21:04 |
| henk | mal: hm, it doesn’t turn up in the layouts in the settings under "text input", and also isn’t available in the keyboard … did I miss a step? | 21:08 |
| mal | henk: I only installed the package from chum, nothing more | 21:12 |
| henk | mal: and where does what show up exactly? in the messages app when you hold the spacebar there is a new entry? did I get that right? | 21:14 |
| mal | both in keyboard layout list in settings app and also in the layouts in keyboard | 21:15 |
| henk | huh, strange … and the app you installed was just called "presage" in chum, by "sailfish-keyboard", correct? | 21:17 |
| henk | mal: did you reboot or restart anything? | 21:18 |
| mal | nope | 21:33 |
| mal | maliit presage plugin was the one I installed | 21:34 |
| mal | hmm, or was it just presage, anyway also that plugin is now installed | 21:35 |
| henk | mal: via chum? I find nothing with 'mali' in chum o_O | 21:42 |
| mal | I just searched for presage | 21:45 |
| mal | which package did you install? | 21:46 |
| mal | I have Presage English US and Maliit Presage Plugin installed, probably the first one pulled in the second | 21:47 |
| henk | "presage" | 22:02 |
| henk | oh, via "chum-gui"? I only see that package searching for "presage", not "Presage English US" or "Maliit Presage Plugin", not anything else, only 1 package | 22:04 |
| mal | there is button show all? | 22:07 |
| mal | ah, it's in the pull down menu | 22:07 |
| henk | oooh, thanks (: | 22:17 |
| akrosi | hmmm, I noticed people didn't find VoLTE to work on the 10 III under Verizon... I wonder if it's possible to get working | 23:21 |
| akrosi | I don't know why verizon's VoLTE would be different than any other carrier, unless the modem is missing a profile for it, but I don't know why the modem/telephony stack would support what looks like every other major US carrier | 23:29 |
