Today is the day!

If you are by any chance registered yourself to adopt Sailfish OS on your Nexus 4 before others do, today was your chance to receive an email containing a lot of new information about Sailfish Os image for your nexus 4!

Download Links will be shared soon

Although the links are available in the emails sent, I have been told to hold on before sharing them because we want to make the ones who registered feel special for a few days, so please if you are one of them, hold on until we release them here.

However

We will share the details with you all if you wanna know what works and what doesn’t!

Release notes and Known issues for Early Adopter Release 1 for mako/Nexus 4:

* We have a subtle watermark underneath the UI at all times stating

“SailfishOS development software” “This is not production quality”.

Developer mode is activated at all times.

* Modem and related functionality works, 3G data, SMS but no call audio

(comes in next release). There has been no throughout testing of telephony

related functionality (roaming, airplane mode, data counters,

etc) and any use of this functionality is at your own risk.

* Sensors, Device clock/alarms, Reset device, Bluetooth, USB control + MTP,

Bluetooth, WLAN hotspot, Camera (photography, video recording), and video

playback is not supported in this release.

* Jolla account / Store is removed from the image due to problems with

registering with Jolla infrastructure.

* The image SW is not currently upgradeable, nor is any typically licensed

multimedia codecs (MP3, etc), HERE maps, Android application compatibility

layer, or word prediction for virtual keyboard preinstalled.

* After returning from suspend, UI may be slow for a moment. It is not

possible to double-tap to wake up the device. Power button may fail to wake

device at times, check if you are covering the proximity sensor.

Powering off device puts it into a state of deep slumber; possible to get

out of by holding power button and volume down key with a bit of

persistence.

* Fingerterm applications may fail to launch during first attempts.

* FPS drop while scrolling in homescreen due to non-batching when rendering

of application icon grid

* Icons/graphics appear unproportionally small in browser toolbar, time

select widget, and Settings favourite icons

* Multiboot / multirom is not supported currently
