At time of writing, the campaign is on $1,275,587USD

But if the following goals are reached, further features can be added:

$1,500,000: Micro sd card support up to 128gb (currently only up to 32gb)
$1,750,000: Split screen, ability to run 2 applications side by side - this would be amazing!
$2,500,000: For an additional $30, the tablet would be compatible with 3G sim cards for on the fly web access

Some great features there as voted for by the community - it would be amazing to have 3.5G compatibility!

We've got just under 2 weeks to help push the campaign up a level and unlock some of these great features - hopefully the addition of a retailer perk (30% discount off 20 tablets bulk buy) will help increase that total so help spread the word!

Are there any features you would have preferred or which out of those features do you like the look of the most ?]]> http://www.jollatides.com/forums/discussion/203/jolla-tablet-have-you-pledged-and-what-are-your-dreams- Wed, 19 Nov 2014 17:41:08 +0000 JollaTides 203@/forums/discussions https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/jolla-tablet-world-s-first-crowdsourced-tablet

Have you pledged on the Jolla tablet yet and will it be your 1st tablet ?

Or are you hoping to replace an existing android/ipad or other tablet with the J-tablet ?

We're very excited that USA is finally on the map to get some Jolla goodness and a number of other countries that weren't open when the Jolla phone was first released - the global reach has definitely expanded since last year!

But maybe you currently live in a country that hasn't been served by the crowdfunding - let us know!

Do you plan on using it for Linux coding ? Or maybe just a pal for your Jolla phone ? Maybe a media/games centre ? What are your expectations for Sailfish OS 2.0 ?

Not sure how we're going to be able to wait until May 2015 (WANT NOW!!), but drop by and let us know what your hopes and dreams are with Jolla's new slate! :-)

Here is what we know:

Hi all,

Here is a quick summary of our plans for this month. Our current focus is towards enabling update10 to be a stable OS update, therefore ironing out issues related to memory handling is the utmost priority right now. In addition to that, we expect to release the following improvements:

Alphanumeric support in device lock
https://together.jolla.com/question/19890/alphabetic-device-lock/
Option to keep display on while charging
https://together.jolla.com/question/37616/keep-display-on-while-charging/
Silence an incoming call by flipping the phone or by pressing the power key

A way to set default reminder
https://together.jolla.com/question/10327/feature-request-calendar-reminder-turned-on-by-default/
Our implementation: on creating a new calendar event with reminder, the reminder time set is saved and used as default for the subsequent new calendar event entries.
As protection against pocket calls, block touch input until proximity sensor is uncovered
https://together.jolla.com/question/11374/bug-accidental-unlocks-and-pocket-dialing-feature-req-disable-touch-screen-and-pwrbtn-when-proximity-is-detected/
https://together.jolla.com/question/9615/preventing-pocket-dialing-to-emergency-service-112/
Since this also means any proximity sensor faults will render the device practically unusable, it will be possible to temporarily disable proximity sensor by triple power key press.
Device lock can be activated manually by double power key press
https://together.jolla.com/question/4339/locking-the-device-right-away-without-waiting-for-the-lock-time/

Apart from finalizing update10, we will start the following activities:

start the work to update to GStreamer 1.x (latest upstream version 1.4.3)
start the work on platform UI scalability, beginning with making icons resolution independent and improving layout scaling

Jolla's native virtual keyboard, while perfectly good and more than useable, could benefit from some improvements nonetheless. Let's keep this strictly about the 'main' virtual keyboard and we'll look to cover the terminal virtual keyboard in the future.

So, what features do you miss in the native virtual keyboard if any at all ?

Much like the procedure in the last feature request, lets keep the comments succinct and precise and after 1-2 weeks, we'll put it to the vote again to present over at Together:

_______________________________________________________________________________

Example post could read like this:-

Sailfish VKB Feature Request:

1/ …….

2/ …….

3/ …….

Next weeks target area: ……..

_______________________________________________________________________________

I want to see some ideas from you guys on the next priority area of improvement for Sailfish so we can keep this rolling every few weeks, thanks! :)]]> http://www.jollatides.com/forums/discussion/197/sailfish-mail-app-missing-featuresbug-reports Tue, 30 Sep 2014 08:41:58 +0100 andreibechet 197@/forums/discussions We should focus on this for 1-2 weeks.

Note: we should write this organized so it wouldn't be very hard for me to process into a list later.
Start by writing it:
1. feature name - explanation
If someone else wrote that feature ... just say +1 to that feature (something like 1. +1 to feature_name).

After 1-2 weeks I will create some sort of processed list and post it here, to double check with all you before putting it on together. After this we can move to calendar app, messenger and so on (the order is not fixed and can be discussed in the general chat of the forum).

As i understand it there should be a service watching the Light-Sensor anyway. so the LPM workaround should not cause more Battery drainage (except for the Screen usage).

Anyone got it running for some Days and can report?

I'm not sure if it is because the general ambient temperature is hotter now with summer here or if it is just since the last update.

Has anyone else experienced this ?

I've also experienced for the first time some lagging after the phone has been running for a while. My phone memory is using 8.4gb of the 13.7gb so maybe I need to follow @grimtech suggestion: http://www.jollatides.com/forums/discussion/178/phone-memory-filling-up-and-apps-crashing-solution#Item_3

I guessed this lack of space was causing some of the problems.

I moved all my photos and videos and Mitakuuluu/whatsapp files from the main drive to my actual SD card.
this saved me 1Gb-ish.
I still couldn't find what was taking up so much space though.


I did a lot of searching and found this:

I had done a factory reset on my phone back in February when it had big problems.

All is running great again on my Jolla

Just thought this might help other users.

I'm using my Jolla on the three UK network (three.co.uk) and it works perfectly. However, when roaming abroad (Belgium and Ireland), it won't let me use data. Phone calls work fine, but I get no joy with data in spite of trying on 2G, 3G and 4G. I checked the data roaming settings under Mobile network, and there's nothing there that looks wrong. Three customer services - perhaps unsurprisingly - weren't able to help given it's not a supported phone, but they were able to confirm that there are no settings on my account that should have prevented it working.

So, my question is whether anyone else has any experience with this, or any insight into what the problem might be.]]> http://www.jollatides.com/forums/discussion/191/tested-alien-dalvik-stop-better-battery-life Fri, 11 Jul 2014 11:15:27 +0100 Hamano88 191@/forums/discussions My results with the battery drain have seriously changed. My Jolla survives longer and I would have more juice at the end of the day.

My question is, does it actually effect the phone in any negative way? Because in android if you use app killers it really effects the phone negatively.

The way I'm using it is by closing android apps after I'm done then I kill dalvik. According to Crest a, CPU tracking app, it shows how dalvik is always running in the background using the CPU intensively.

Only thing that changed is instead of the android apps works in an instant it takes a couple of seconds, I don't mind it because the huge battery Jump is worth the sacrifice.

Have a read and if you need a Satnav on your Jolla I would suggest giving this one (Mapfactor) a try. From initial testing it looks pretty good and offers either free (OpenStreetMap) or paid (TomTom) maps which you can select from within the app.

The things i've tried below are interim stages to try and get the directory off the Jolla and onto some other media where I was hoping it would be easy to copy to the Android tablet from there, but I've had some problems:

1/ So far I've managed to copy said android data directory (plus all associated files) internally to: home/nemo/public in the hope that it would be easier from there.

2/ I've tried copying the directory/files from Jolla to PC via Filezilla but there are errors (permissions?) and not all files can be transferred)

3/ I've tried copying the directory in terminal to the SD card on Jolla using:

cp -a /source/. /dest/

4/ I've also connected up my Jolla via USB to a Linux-based PC to try and copy the files via linux file manager from the home/nemo/public directory onto the PC, but again there were errors and a few files can't be copied in the process.

The next thing I've been thinking is to try Rsync to sync the directory over network from the Jolla to the rooted Android tablet - but I'm not quite sure how to achieve this or if it would work?

I thought this would be simple, but it seems the files have have some kind of r/w root permission which is making it difficult. Or maybe I'm just overlooking something ?

If anyone has an idea, I would appreciate some help - thanks!

I love and recommend Sailfish OS as the naturally most secure Mobil OS, because it is predominantly open source. So I love the Jolla, because of its native use of Sailfish OS.
In a few weeks I will be for a few hours in Helsinki and I got the plan to just get a Jolla there in a shop.
So here is my question:

"Is it at present time possible, to buy a brand-new but unbranded Jolla without any contract of a mobil phone operator (for example "DNA") in a nice shop in Helsinki?"

Maybe I will buy some Other Half too. If the answer is "yes, of course", what I really hope, what shops could you recommend?

Thanks for your answer
