Awakening after the crisis – J-D bulletin #fase3

We’re in mid-June and the time is ripe for a new bulletin!
Usually May and especially June are “hot” months for Sailfish OS, before the quiet summer. Furthermore, the Covid-19 epidemic seems to be ended and Europe is getting ready to start again.
In Italy we call that “Fase 3″…

Community porting / unofficial

Here is an update from Adam Pigg: in future will be easier for community porters to add the fingerprint sensor support. Really promising!

 

The Redmi Note 7 porting by Danct 12 is going on, and a rebuilt release is coming soon!
J-D is directly looking at this porting: there is a Note 7 ready for this scope, and later some content will be crafted.

Users who appreciate

May had a positive mood: here is some good tweet you may have missed!

Sailfish OS Apps!

Watchlist and Nightly clock have been updated. Both are currently available on Openrepos.

A question about the TOHKBD:

(Let’s remind the funky and sleek design of the TOHKBD)

The Pine 64 corner

There are several interesting devices from Pine 64: now it’s the turn of the Pinetab, a 10 “tablet with a compatible keyboard, which could bring a Sailfish OS tablet to the west countries!

(If Sailfish OS can be flashed and works in Pinetime hardware. To be tested this summer)

The Hype grows…

Pine 64 finally answers! So the hardware will be available later on july.

 

Something keeps moving about Pinetime: initial support for the JF Firmware is here.

SONY Xperia 10 Black will soon join the phones available in the J-D Store!
