[SFOS][Stable] SailfishOS 3.0.3.9 for cancro [May 26]

[alibay13]

Everything begins from 2010 When Nokia and Intel decided to work with each other. The result of this collaboration was named MeeGo OperatingSystem. but after a while, Nokia left from MeeGo project. a group of people from this project decided to keep MeeGo alive. and then the journey of SailfishOS began! You can read more about it here!​

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

1- Make sure that you've made a backup of your current ROM and data. I'm not responsible for data loss and etc!
2 - Install cm12.1 as your base ROM. download it from here. You can skip this step if you already have it as your base ROM.
3 - Make sure that you've done step two, then install sailfishos-cancro-release-3.0.3.9-20190526.zip on top of it. It would take a while, so be patient.
4 - When the installation is done, Just reboot the device. Note that first boot might take a while...
5 - Enjoy :fingers-crossed: !​

Known issues:
Pully menu at the ambiences section is a bit laggy ( so use it carefully! )
If you see any bugs, please report them to me! Thanks

ToDo:
No promise, But I'll do my best to bring Android support ( anbox ) on the cancro!
If you're interested in porting anbox, you can check out here.

Recommended TWRP:
Use this version of TWRP if you face any errors while flashing.

Bug reports:
If you face any bugs while working with this ROM, you can report them to me from here.
I've explained everything you need to know there!

Thanks to everyone who helped me to make this project alive again :highfive:

You're welcome
Same here! SailfishOS doesn't have Persian keyboard layout as default
But you can add it to SailfishOS by installing this packages from openrepos...
No promise on bringing Android support to Mi3/Mi4 , But I'll do my best to make it true!

Tnq.are you working any update and make rom better??
We have to use social apps like WhatsApp.if you can bring Android apps we can use sailfish as daily driver.

Yeah, I've already noticed about random reboots.
( It might be a bug from SailfishOS )
Would be fixed on next update!

Sure! I'll do my best to make SailfishOS updates available to users until I have one of cancro devices
Telegram native clients are already published for Sailfish users ( like Depecher or Telegra'me ) and they're suitable for daily using.
But about Whatsapp, there's no native client available for that right now and Yes! the only way to use that on Sailfish is to bring Android support for cancro devices
As I said before, No promise on this, But I'll do everything that I could to make it true

But how can use telegram in Iran?this version support in app proxy?or jolla has any vpn app??

As easy as ABC
SailfishOS has VPN support by default at settings. If you have any VPN account, You could give it a shot
But if not, Install tor package from openrepos. ( use this link )
Then go to terminal and run tor by typing "tor" ( after you typed that, just press enter and tor would be run )
(*Note that the only native Telegram client that supports proxy for connecting to Telegram network is Depecher)
now open Depecher ( which is already shipped with Sailfish image ) use pully menu and go to the settings.
In the proxy section type "127.0.0.1" at the address input, then type "9050" at the port input, and press "Set Proxy" button!
It may take about a minute to be connected. after that, you can connect to your account
Enjoy...

Tnq my bro
We are going to near and near for daily user.
But no way for porting Andriod™ support app to this rom???
Sorry for anoying you and my bad English
But I love sailfish and if I can i type in Persian

Thanks a lot for continuing to maintain this os for our beloved cancro! I've installed it yesterday, everything seems to work fine, including camera (taking photos, shooting videos, playing them back). The only issue I've found that after some time of not using it I've tried to reopen an app from recents, and that's when the phone just rebooted itself - twice.
Anyways, keep up the good work :good:
