SailorGram

First of all: Great Work, I'm using Sailorgram all the time now!

But I'm experiencing three problems. Two are related to notifications and the other one to connection problems at automatic startup.

1. I'm having two problems with notifications: One of them is that sometimes there's the LED still blinking even though I allready read the message. In this case I have to click the notification icon again and after that it works. I think it happens when I get several messages at a time. But I'm not quite sure.

2. The other problem problem is that there's sometimes no notification at all after I get messages. The Sailorgram Icon shows the number of unread messages correct, but theres no blinking light nor the notification icon.

3. And then there's this problem with the connection: When I set the daemon to start automatically at OS startup then it won't connect. I have to close the app again (including the daemon) and restart it. After that the connections works flawlessly.

Regarding the notification problem. When I had my Jolla new there was no real support for android notifications so I had an app installed to have this feature. When the official support was fixed I deinstalled this again. Could this problem be related to this?

Maybe you have an advice for me to get these bugs fixed.

Keep up the good work! ;)

don't work video with codec x264 in sailogram =((((

this is default codec in telegram. tetelgram preview codec x264 as GIF!!!!

please adding this function and smile

When can we expect two factor authentication support? I would really like to use sailorgram, but the lack of two factor authentication is a showstopper for me.

Got a couple ideas concerning the landscape mode and saving space:

I think that in 1-on-1 conversations the names could be dropped from the messages entirely as it takes some valuable space. It would probably be best as an option in settings as it could be confusing if one has the conversation bar and the message names hidden. Maybe make it so that names can be hidden only if the bar is enabled.

The conversation bar could be made transparent, maybe having a fading ambiance or black color under it so you could still sort of see the messages under it. This would be very handy in landscape mode where the keyboard takes a lot of space. I was also thinking of moving the avatar and the name to the left side but then I remembered that the message position is to be inverted later. Usually you're more interested in seeing the other person's messages so it is only logical that the name and avatar would be on the side of your own messages, covering some of them rather than the other person's messages.

In landscape mode the messages could be allowed to be horizontally longer than they're now. It would cause less line breaks which also would save some space. Line space between the message and the timestamp could be a little smaller without problems. Also there are sometimes an oddly lot of useless horizontal space in the bubbles, what would cause this?

Unable to open the app. Crashing while opening. Any solution for this issue?

Awesome application! Now with the reconnection issues fixed and notifications getting deleted when message is read on another client, I can finally remove the Android version!

May I suggest that downloaded pictures and videos should be saved in subdirectory? Either just Sailogram, ir preferably, Sailogram\username?

Also: How do I add smileys?

Great update!The app is awesome!

Just wondering if it is possible (when on telegram group) to have different color for each users? It could be easier to differentiate them.

Is that something doable ?

Thanks a lot for this app :)

Great update. The inverted message positioning seems to be own in its way still but it's a pretty minor case anyway.

Now this is an upgrade! Well done.
Having the reconnection issues solved would mean I can say bye bye to whatsapp for good.

Thanks for your work, Dax, you always deliver massive updates.

There will be the possibility that the application reaches Meego ..? Or just be support for Sailfish ......

Thank you for the update, you made my day. I can finally ditch the Android app. I subscribed the Sailogram's repository on Flattr some time ago, you get a flattr from me every month and it's well deserved...

When sending message with enter key and insertion point is not at the end of the message, it will create a line break there.

Also there seems to be a bunch of emojis that don't show correctly in the app which might already be a known issue but just in case. Not sure if the emoji pack I linked was incompete or some in-app problems. Some telegram emojis seems to use two emojis as their source like this one: http://puu.sh/mXMq8/2cd9cbcb91.jpg

In sailorgram it show as four emojis: man, woman and two boys.

The size of image preview could be smaller as I recieved a screenshot of a phone screen and the preview was almost as large as my own screen. Also if recieved or sent a picture in landscape mode its preview is larger than in vertical mode and if changed to vertical after that the preview picture stays as large as in landscape mode and will go out of boundaries of the message area. The preview size is fixed if swipe out of the chat and come back.

Another issue is that if the app is open but hidden in the conversation screen and you recieve a message and new notification will come to the notification screen, it won't go away by simply opening the app. Only by entering the conversation from the conversation list again. Also seems to happen if daemon is on but the app is closed in a conversation and new message is recieved in that conversation and the app is opened. Notification will not dissapear from the notification screen.

EDIT: The led problem seems to be solved after rebooting the device.

Updated SailorGram, removed Telegram (Android), stopped Alien Dalvik.

Thanks a lot Dax.

I have same issue when changing wlan and mobile connection like @Ingvix, but I see, you know...

When changing from wlan to mobile connection or back it says it's connected even though it's not and messages won't go through. I have to restart the app and daemon in order to get it work again.

Also it doesn't seem to count emojis as characters as seen in this picture where it goes off bounderies

Wow Dax, thanks heaps for implementing the daemon/service feature :) If you ask me, your app is well on its way to become better than the official client! Keep up the amazing job.
