Sailfish OS (also styled as SailfishOS or abbreviated to SFOS) is a mobile operating system combining the Linux kernel for a particular hardware platform use, the open-source Mer core middleware, a proprietary UI contributed by Jolla, and other third-party components.

https://img.xda-cdn.com/sP516dFVJKyUezAnTyIGYjZ1iU0=/http%3A%2F%2Fpraxistipps-images.chip.de%2FZfsIsgbRpVTn3hYYVzeQ91Fxnz0%3D%2F0x0%2Ffilters%3Ano_upscale%28%29%3Aformat%28jpeg%29%2Fpraxistipps.s3.amazonaws.com%252Fdas-jolla-phone_210d4af5.png

It's a beautiful OS developed by the Jolla and the mer team. The UI is totally guesture based. So say good bye to your boring Android navigation bar. The OS is fast and butter smooth with zero lags. This is a totally new experience and certainly a delightful one from the same old boring mundane Android which has had almost the same UI since 5.0 .

Flashing Process:
Note: This has to be flashed over LineageOS 15.1

1. Download LineageOS 15.1: LineageOS 15.1

2. Download Sailfish OS 3.0: SailfishOS 3.0

3. Wipe cache, dalvik cache system and data. Copy the two ROMs to your phone.

4. Flash LineageOS 15.1 first, then Sailfish 3.0 .

Bugs:

Bluetooth.
WiFi once turned off won't work
MTP
Maybe other stuffs I dont Know


Please Note: It is in pre-alpha condition. Not stable. Only for the Curious minds. Stable build will be uploaded in a while. But you can still flash and get a feel of it.

I hope i wasn't too late pushing out a new build. Sorry if I was late :p

Awesome work dev! I used it on my old redmi 2 and fell in love with it, had since been hoping someone would port it for zuk z2!

Is there any way to use WhatsApp on this build?

I cannot get it to boot. When flashing sailfish OS right after flashing CM13, it does not install and gives error (screenshot attached)
It installs successfully after rebooting to TWRP after installing CM13, but on boot, the phone freezes with dim white LED always on. I ran that adb shell command yet it does not boot . I couldn't take logs at that time as phone was not recognized in adb.

Are you using twrp 3.1? Actually, i forgot to mention that you won't be able to flash this on twrp 3.1.
Holdon, lemme upload twrp 3.0.x
It is chinese but you can change the language in settings. After that, follow the steps again.

Edit: Uploaded. Download the recovery from the downloads tab

What error do you see on terminal when you type it in the twrp terminal? Also, you don't have to go to fastboot. You need to stay on recovery and connect your device. From there, run the commands on PC.
