My message was obviously a taunt. However, I am really frustrated by the phone. After more than one year, it is still not usable for an everyday use. The stack just under Silica/Sailfish though, is amazing. A phone with GNU > Coreutils and Python pre-installed! That's really all I've ever wanted. The stack is a Linux. Yes, this is what I want too. But the lack of essential functions is terrible. What do you mean by "SailfishOS doesn't work well on Jolla"? I'm talking about essential features that are missing. I won't talk about the ergonomy of the OS. It is supposed to be revolutionary and I just find it horrible. Connecting to a WiFi network is a nightmare. But I guess that it is personal taste. Non exhaustive list: - No notification on voicemail. This one made me miss *very important* messages before I realized what was happening. Today, I have to call my voicemail twice a day to be sure not to miss one. Even the new ubuntu phone and firefox os phone works for that. The lack of this feature is, in my sense, unacceptable. https://together.jolla.com/question/8779/no-notification-when-new-voicemail/ - Non threaded mails in mail app. https://together.jolla.com/question/337/option-threaded-view-in-mail-app/ - I had to put a paper under my battery to make the phone work. Otherwise there is no contact between the battery and the phone and I have random shutdowns. I know that this problem cannot be solved as it is hardware, but this is really a shame for a smartphone. - If you attach a big file to a mail (several hundreds of Megabytes), the phone becomes unusable. The battery is drained, all applications are killed randomly until the faulty mail is deleted (which is hard because the mail app is killed or doesn't work at all). - Links between facebook contacts and gmail contacts are not saved. Since I have to reset my phone from factory every 6 months (because this is always the first thing people ask you when you have a problem), I have to make all the links by hand again. - The camera is terrible. I had to buy another phone for business at some point. I took the cheapest Windows Phone I could find (Lumia 521) and the photos taken by this phone look better than the one on the Jolla. - Sailfish utils: this is a useful toolbox but I shouldn't have to use any of these functions. The phone should be working fine without my intervention. This menu is the proof that something is wrong. When I bought my Jolla, I found the interface better than Android phones. Now, Android has evolved and Jolla has not. Honestly, I would totally give up on the interesting features to have a phone that works. Alex.
