I've done the same thing. I've found that a strip of Duct tape across the back and one side works wonders in solving this issue.

Yes, that sounds about right. Just plug it in and proceed as normal. Yes.

@VaZso Your symptoms sound the same as mine, I also couldn't get that boot screen that others talk about. Be patient, let the battery drain and try again with a flat battery.

The other thing to try is to either disconnect the battery or let it fully drain and try then. I had no luck with my phone until the battery completely ran dry. I was going to try the disconnect method but then rl got in the way for a couple of weeks, after which removing modemmanager worked for me. There is disassembly documentation around somewhere but otherwise I still have a copy if need be. The fact that it comes up as QDL mode is a good sign.

@fredrick@kbe@VaZso Using lsusb under linux, does the phone show up as something like: ... ID 05c6:9008 ... /dev/ttyUSB0 qualcomm modem? The other thing is to check if you have modemmanager installed. If so, remove it* as this is what could be causing the connection timed out issues. *modemmanager detects the phone and secures it for use as a modem I have been down this path and am now writing this on a resurrected Pro1 with Sailfish reinstalled.

Melbourne, Australia running SailfishOS.

For those getting the connection timed out message, check to see if you have modemmanager installed and disable the service.

Wish I had read this earlier. You're not alone. 😉 @tdmThanks for your work. I'll be able to give this a test run tomorrow. @EvilDragon thanks for following through with this.

With the kb hack, how have you guys found it? I've used the first one but have found it has disabled the quotation marks and the tilde. All other keys are fine.

I got the order completed email and found my tracking number by clicking on my order number under orders. Still no fedex email. Due to arrive in Australia on the 30th!

Pre-order #68xx, non IGG, 2nd March. Payment on 1st August. Shipping to Australia. Stock assigned email, 20th January.

The numbers are from preorder allocation. If someone before you cancels, you don't automatically get their number, it stays a cancelled order number.

I think a case like the one made for the N900 by Otterbox could work. It clipped onto both parts. It would just need a thinner bottom screen edge to allow for the new slidding mechanism.

I agree with this. I already have a couple pairs of Jabra bluetooth headphones and various corded ones. I would be happy with an opt-out / shout yourselves a drink as thanks option.

I have to buck the trend against a 6" screen. I'm actually looking forward to it. I currently use an Xperia X with sailfish and my only gripe against it is I find the 5" screen a little small for terminal use. Increase the font size and you lose to much, with a font size that works, is at times hard on the eyes. Terminal use is my main love of a keyboard phone.

I would like to know if the kernel will support the network file system?
