- No actions taken yet regarding community task
board nor charger / cables. (rainemak,
16:05:42)
- AppSupport on other community ports (particularly on the Xperia 1 and 5 IV) (5 mins -- @jmerono) (rainemak, 16:06:54)
- <jmerono> Following what was mentioned in
the previous community meeting (rainemak,
16:06:55)
- <jmerono> regarding the Xperia 10 IV and
V, I wondered if there were any (rainemak,
16:06:55)
- <jmerono> plans to extend that to other
well-supported ports (like on (rainemak,
16:06:55)
- <jmerono> @rinigus‘s Nagara ports). If
so, I understand the team may be (rainemak,
16:06:55)
- <jmerono> busy with the JP2026 among
other things, but may we have an (rainemak,
16:06:58)
- <jmerono> estimate of when we will have
it? (rainemak,
16:07:00)
- <Jolla> Let us start with Xperia 10 IV
and 10 V (surely jointly with (rainemak,
16:07:02)
- <Jolla> Sharks and others). Once we have
AppSupport working with 10 IV (rainemak,
16:07:04)
- <Jolla> and 10 V we certainly know more.
After reaching that target, we (rainemak,
16:07:06)
- <Jolla> have more solid ground to start
planning how to expand or (rainemak,
16:07:08)
- <Jolla> whether to expand. (rainemak,
16:07:10)
- OBS dependencies in tooling/chroot (10 mins -- rubdos / Ruben De Smet) (rainemak, 16:17:08)
- <rubdos> To build Whisperfish, we often
require a version of Rust and (rainemak,
16:17:08)
- <rubdos> LLVM that leads the version
provided by Jolla. I build and host (rainemak,
16:17:08)
- <rubdos> these packages on my home
server, such that our CI system can (rainemak,
16:17:08)
- <rubdos> build them, and the resulting
RPMs end up on OpenRepos. I’d (rainemak,
16:17:08)
- <rubdos> like to offer Whisperfish on
Chum, however. This means we’d (rainemak,
16:17:09)
- <rubdos> need to compile Rust/LLVM on
Chum, such that I can build-depend (rainemak,
16:17:11)
- <rubdos> on them. However, Rust builds
through an sb2 shim, which means (rainemak,
16:17:13)
- <rubdos> that the actual rustc and cargo
dependencies need to be (rainemak,
16:17:15)
- <rubdos> available in the tooling and
even in the chroot. See our (rainemak,
16:17:17)
- <rubdos> Dockerfile for exact prereqs. As
far as I understand, this is (rainemak,
16:17:19)
- <rubdos> not currently possible to
specify in OBS. More context at Show (rainemak,
16:17:21)
- <rubdos> home:rubdos:whisperfish / Rust -
SailfishOS Open Build Service (rainemak,
16:17:23)
- <rubdos> and Show home:rubdos:whisperfish
/ llvm - SailfishOS Open Build (rainemak,
16:17:25)
- <rubdos> Service. Would it be possible to
get some help to get this (rainemak,
16:17:29)
- <rubdos> going? I’m not entirely sure
whether I can hack this in myself, (rainemak,
16:17:31)
- <rubdos> or whether I need Jolla’s or the
community’s help on this. (rainemak,

(rainemak,

- https://build.sailfishos.org/package/show/home:rubdos:whisperfish/llvm
(rainemak,
16:17:39)
- <Jolla> Thank you for asking. We do have
Rust 1.95 and LLVM 20 PRs (rainemak,
16:17:41)
- <Jolla> ready. That should help with
Whisperfish development for some (rainemak,
16:17:43)
- <Jolla> time. There should be room to
bump up Rust to 1.97.1 and LLVM to (rainemak,
16:17:45)
- <Jolla> 22.1.8. Surely, this does not
solve generic OBS issue that you (rainemak,
16:17:47)
- <Jolla> are referring to. When we reach
up-to-date Gecko ESR version (rainemak,
16:17:49)
- <Jolla> that should also help us all to
keep Rust and LLVM up-to-date as (rainemak,
16:17:51)
- <Jolla> well and serving better
Whisperfish development needs. (rainemak,
16:17:53)
- Murray and Zambezi community ports - what are the next steps for AppSupport? (10mins -- asked by Sharks) (rainemak, 16:30:58)
- <Sharks> We are all very excited at the
announcement from the previous (rainemak,
16:30:58)
- <Sharks> community meeting regarding
Jolla’s confirmation that (rainemak,
16:30:58)
- <Sharks> AppSupport for the community
ports for Xperia 10IV and V is (rainemak,
16:30:59)
- <Sharks> still on the cards. As the port
maintainer, I would like to (rainemak,
16:31:01)
- <Sharks> know what is required of me to
ensure that AppSupport for this (rainemak,
16:31:03)
- <Sharks> port can be delivered to users
as soon as possible. Initial (rainemak,
16:31:05)
- <Sharks> testing from users shows the
existing AppSupport binaries do (rainemak,
16:31:07)
- <Sharks> not work out of the box
currently. Given we know community (rainemak,
16:31:09)
- <Sharks> ports have been able to run
AppSupport binaries in the past (rainemak,
16:31:11)
- <Sharks> (see: Nagara) is this a
port-specific problem (eg. something I (rainemak,
16:31:13)
- <Sharks> haven’t done right like kernel
configs), or a Jolla-side (rainemak,
16:31:15)
- <Sharks> problem (AppSupport binaries
need updating to be compatible (rainemak,
16:31:17)
- <Sharks> with Android 15 base)? Is there
a preferred way to open a line (rainemak,
16:31:19)
- <Sharks> of dialogue on this topic
between myself / any other willing (rainemak,
16:31:21)
- <Sharks> community developer(s) and Jolla
so that we can work towards a (rainemak,
16:31:23)
- <Sharks> functioning solution? Noting
that I live on the wrong side of (rainemak,
16:31:25)
- <Sharks> the world (GMT+10) and have a
day job. (rainemak,
16:31:29)
- <Jolla> Likely next steps for AppSupport
is that we first adapt (rainemak,
16:31:31)
- <Jolla> AppSupport 15 to Jolla C2. Let's
see who do we have from Jolla (rainemak,
16:31:33)
- <Jolla> team to comment on more technical
parts of this. (rainemak,
16:31:35)
- Official Xperia 10 IV/V Jolla Ports: Latest internal tests based on which blobs, how far from feature complete, can we help get it done? (5 mins -- asked by @yusssufff) (rainemak, 16:39:40)
- <yusssufff> I know that some community
ports are being developped. (rainemak,
16:39:40)
- <yusssufff> Nevertheless, I am personally
very keep on offical ports, (rainemak,
16:39:40)
- <yusssufff> especially as I prefer to
entrust @jolla for coding such (rainemak,
16:39:40)
- <yusssufff> sensitive software.
(rainemak,
16:39:40)
- <yusssufff> A company is a
liability. (rainemak,
16:39:42)
- <yusssufff> (rainemak,
16:39:44)
- <yusssufff> Therefore I wished to know
how far did went the latest tests (rainemak,
16:39:46)
- <yusssufff> @mal and @jolla did with the
10 V. About a year ago @mal (rainemak,
16:39:48)
- <yusssufff> mentionned camera and audio
finally working against ‘‘latest (rainemak,
16:39:50)
- <yusssufff> blobs’’, that fingerprint was
to be skipped, and that VoLTE (rainemak,
16:39:52)
- <yusssufff> had new configs that came
along with the new blobs and that (rainemak,
16:39:54)
- <yusssufff> it was now a hard nut to
crack… (rainemak,
16:39:58)
- <yusssufff> (rainemak,
16:40:00)
- <yusssufff> I wish to know which ‘latest’
blobs specifically were used (rainemak,
16:40:02)
- <yusssufff> back then, and how much work
is still missing (sure giving (rainemak,
16:40:04)
- <yusssufff> up on fingerprint, that’s a
given) to get it all mostly set (rainemak,
16:40:06)
- <yusssufff> up (only volte left to work
on?). Could community help crack (rainemak,
16:40:08)
- <yusssufff> this nut, if you share with
us the exact piece of work still (rainemak,
16:40:10)
- <yusssufff> needed to be achieved?
(rainemak,
16:40:12)
- <yusssufff> Would be so lovely to get the
last push for that official (rainemak,
16:40:14)
- <yusssufff> Xperia port :blush:.
(rainemak,
16:40:16)
- <Jolla> The official Jolla ports for 10
IV and 10 V were left pretty (rainemak,
16:40:18)
- <Jolla> much to state we communicated
earlier. If mal is around, he (rainemak,
16:40:20)
- <Jolla> could comment more. (rainemak,
16:40:22)
- Sound/microphone issue with audio/video recordings. (5 mins -- asked by Cryx) (rainemak, 16:45:54)
- <Cryx> sound in audio and video
recordings is very bad, details get (rainemak,
16:45:54)
- <Cryx> lost. This may be related to a
possible noise cancellation (rainemak,
16:45:54)
- <Cryx> process what is good for calls,
but very bad for recordings with (rainemak,
16:45:54)
- <Cryx> camera or audiorecorder. See some
more details in the linked (rainemak,
16:45:54)
- <Cryx> thread below. (rainemak,
16:45:55)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
16:45:59)
- <Cryx> What’s the reason for that, is
there a possible solution that can (rainemak,
16:46:01)
- <Cryx> be implemented like disabeling
noise cancellation (if that’s the (rainemak,
16:46:03)
- <Cryx> reason) for recordings, maybe even
with a toggle in camera and (rainemak,
16:46:05)
- <Cryx> audiorecorder or their
settings? (rainemak,
16:46:07)
- https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/very-bad-sound-in-recordings-from-jolla-phone-2026/32800
(rainemak,
16:46:09)
- <Jolla> Thank you for asking. Needs more
investigation. Let's have open (rainemak,
16:46:11)
- <Jolla> discussion. (rainemak,
16:46:13)
- The Jolla phone 2026 screen may not have a software problem. (10 mins -- asked by Polatbirdal) (rainemak, 16:55:19)
- <Polatbirdal> Hello, this issue was also
discussed on August 20, but the (rainemak,
16:55:19)
- <Polatbirdal> exact cause still hadn’t
been properly investigated. After (rainemak,
16:55:19)
- <Polatbirdal> that meeting, some people
opened new threads, and we came (rainemak,
16:55:19)
- <Polatbirdal> across some interesting
information. (rainemak,
16:55:19)
- <Polatbirdal> (rainemak,
16:55:21)
- <Polatbirdal> Some people who bought the
Jolla Phone 2026 were able to (rainemak,
16:55:23)
- <Polatbirdal> pass every screen color
test without any issues at all. (rainemak,
16:55:25)
- <Polatbirdal> However, others experienced
problems regardless of which (rainemak,
16:55:29)
- <Polatbirdal> color test they ran. Some
described it as looking like a (rainemak,
16:55:31)
- <Polatbirdal> “Mexico filter,” while
others saw a shadowy green tint (rainemak,
16:55:33)
- <Polatbirdal> appearing over black areas,
or shading near the very top (rainemak,
16:55:35)
- <Polatbirdal> of the screen with orange
and red colors. (rainemak,
16:55:37)
- <Polatbirdal> (rainemak,
16:55:39)
- <Polatbirdal> At first, before we had
this kind of evidence, most people (rainemak,
16:55:41)
- <Polatbirdal> thought the issue was
software-related. But now that some (rainemak,
16:55:43)
- <Polatbirdal> users experience it while
others don’t experience it at (rainemak,
16:55:45)
- <Polatbirdal> all, it has made the issue
even more interesting and (rainemak,
16:55:47)
- <Polatbirdal> raised more
questions. (rainemak,
16:55:49)
- <Polatbirdal> (rainemak,
16:55:51)
- <Polatbirdal> Has any further
investigation been done on this? At this (rainemak,
16:55:53)
- <Polatbirdal> point, it doesn’t really
seem like a software-related (rainemak,
16:55:55)
- <Polatbirdal> issue anymore. (rainemak,
16:55:59)
- <Jolla> If there are hardware defects,
those are covered by warranty. (rainemak,
16:56:01)
- <Jolla> Whether you have a hardware
defect that is another story. (rainemak,
16:56:03)

(rainemak,
17:01:41)
- Camera Quality and resolution of new Jolla Phone (10 mins -- asked by Cryx) (rainemak, 17:10:08)
- <Cryx> The forum starts to discuss about
the capabilities and problems (rainemak,
17:10:08)
- <Cryx> with the camera. One point is the
resolution of pictures taken (rainemak,
17:10:08)
- <Cryx> with the native SFOS camera that
just seems to use half of the (rainemak,
17:10:08)
- <Cryx> possible resolution compared to
Advanced Camera or even Android (rainemak,
17:10:08)
- <Cryx> camera apps. (rainemak,
17:10:09)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
17:10:11)
- <Cryx> SFOS has a max of 4096 with both
back cameras, while Advanced (rainemak,
17:10:13)
- <Cryx> Camera has a max 4096 and 8192 for
the different back cameras. (rainemak,
17:10:15)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
17:10:17)
- <Cryx> Front camera resoltion is a little
bit more then double with (rainemak,
17:10:19)
- <Cryx> Advanced camera compared to SFOS
stock camera. (rainemak,
17:10:21)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
17:10:23)
- <Cryx> Also the max video resolution is
1440 in all apps - but as the (rainemak,
17:10:25)
- <Cryx> camera module is/was also used in
Sony’s Xperia Range (if we got (rainemak,
17:10:29)
- <Cryx> that right) and capable of
recording 4k videos even with an (rainemak,
17:10:31)
- <Cryx> Xperia 10 III it should be
possible to do 4k videos on the much (rainemak,
17:10:33)
- <Cryx> better hardware of the new Jolla
Phone too. (rainemak,
17:10:35)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
17:10:37)
- <Cryx> Some dome concrete
questions: (rainemak,
17:10:39)
- <Cryx> (rainemak,
17:10:41)
- <Cryx> - Why does the SFOS camera app not
use the max resolution for the main (1.0) camera? (rainemak,
17:10:43)
- <Cryx> - Is the Jolla Phone capable to
take 4K videos from the hardware (rainemak,
17:10:46)
- <Cryx> side (especially camera modules
and processor)? If yes, what (rainemak,
17:10:48)
- <Cryx> must be done to enable
this? (rainemak,
17:10:50)
- <Cryx> - We had filters on other devices
(that were still in Xperia 10 (rainemak,
17:10:52)
- <Cryx> III but not working) and now are
completely missing on the new (rainemak,
17:10:54)
- <Cryx> Jolla Phone. Are there plans to
bring that feature back with a (rainemak,
17:10:58)
- <Cryx> future update? (rainemak,
17:11:00)
- <Cryx> - Several people notice a fisheye
effect especially with the (rainemak,
17:11:02)
- <Cryx> (0.5) camera in 4:3. Listening
to some people this is caused by (rainemak,
17:11:04)
- <Cryx> the picture processing. Is there
a plan to improve that (maybe (rainemak,
17:11:06)
- <Cryx> with Camera API 2 (if I’m right
even the new Jolla Phone still (rainemak,
17:11:08)
- <Cryx> uses API 1)? (rainemak,
17:11:10)
- <Jolla> Thank you asking. We opened
Camera app wishlist on January and (rainemak,
17:11:36)
- <Jolla> Camera app itself has been open
for quite some time already. (rainemak,
17:11:36)
- <Jolla> Contributions welcome ;-).
(rainemak,
17:11:36)
- https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/sailfish-camera-app-wishlist/24497
(rainemak,
17:11:36)
- <Jolla> In all seriousness, we all want
to get improvements to Camera (rainemak,
17:11:36)
- <Jolla> app. Firstly, we need a fix for
the max resolution. Further, (rainemak,
17:11:37)
- <Jolla> we should have more selections
for resolution setting. Also (rainemak,
17:11:39)
- <Jolla> people tend to understand
megapixels so there could be an easy (rainemak,
17:11:41)
- <Jolla> way to select image quality.
Maybe nowadays selecting lower (rainemak,
17:11:43)
- <Jolla> image quality due to storage
usage is not that big of issue but (rainemak,
17:11:45)
- <Jolla> there can be other factors like
capturing speed that needs to be (rainemak,
17:11:47)
- <Jolla> taken into account. (rainemak,
17:11:49)
- Open Pull Requests (PRs) to discussion (5 mins -- asked by Jolla) (rainemak, 17:25:07)
