Hello,
Yesterday, I reinstalled my pocophone F1 from /e/ oreo version to pie version.
Here are little comments after this upgrade :
-
At first boot, when I choised French for language, the keyboard was still in qwerty.
it’s can be surprising. -
As I’m a “Signal” user, I installed “Signal” from “Apps”.
I had the bad surprise that I could not restore my backup because, the version of “Signal” was too old.
So “Apps” have an old version of “Signal”… I had to install it from an other source to be able to restore my backup. -
After install of “Fdroid”, it said to me that there is an update for “openkeychain”.
I don’t know if it’s because the version of “openkeychain” in /e/ is a fork or not. -
Yes, good news ! There is no more “Opencamera” bug that I had with oreo version. (pictures, too more bright)
I can use “Opencamera” again. Cool. -
No problem to sync my contacts from my personal baikal server.
-
It took a long time for the GPS to point my location. It could see me from 20 miles away…
Now it seems to be better (but not perfect) without change any settings.
In “Maps”, it’s OK.
In “weather”, most of the time, it’ ok but sometimes there are a mistake from several kms and sometimes it don’t find my location.
With “Owntrack” (mosquitto selfhosted), the map shows the right location, but the name of the city is not the right one.
Thanks for the whole /e/ team.
What I can say is : Without /e/, I still wouldn’t have a smartphone, with /e/ I have one.
