  2. Qt5 update status (asked by pasik – 15 min) (Jaymzz, 08:05:15)
    1. any news about the sailfishos qt5 update? any timeframe estimate when it will become available? is it still going to be qt 5.9, or is it possible to go directly to qt 5.12 LTS ? is qt5 licensing still an issue? (Jaymzz, 08:05:22)
    2. We've postponed the update from this year to get all necessary arrangements in place. We are re-evaluating if we still update first to 5.9 or if going directly to newer version would be better approach. (Jaymzz, 08:05:42)
    3. regarding the licensing issues: It’s not an issue anymore, for community we plan to go with OSS license. (veskuh) (Jaymzz, 08:09:55)
    4. J Pablo, late community member (elfio, 08:12:49)
    5. there may be licensing differences between commercial and community versions of Sailfish OS, but no difference in code bases. We plan to stay away from GPLv3 on other packages at least for the time being. (Jaymzz, 08:14:42)

  4. xa2 android mobile data issues (asked by pasik – 15 min) (Jaymzz, 08:32:12)
    1. it seems some users still have android mobile data connection detection problems, with sailfishos 3.1.0.11 on xa2. There are multiple reports on TJC. Especially from users of O2/Germany SIMs. Is this a known issue that is likely going to get fixed in upcoming releases, or is there something the community should do to help debug this issue and track it down? Any tips/instructions for the users who have these problems? (Jaymzz, 08:32:22)
    2. There is a file called /system/etc/apns-conf.xml which lists all the available carriers. It is possible that the one provided by AOSP 8 is outdated and that we need to update it, the community could check if https://android.googlesource.com/device/sample/+/master/etc/apns-full-conf.xml helps (overwrite /system/etc/apns-conf.xml and restart the Android Support). The community should also provide logs produced with: devel- (Jaymzz, 08:32:40)
