Can you install the Android KDE Connect Client to see whether this client can connect?

v0.4-2 seems to be not supported in SailfishX v2.2.0.29 (Unresponsive GUI; all patches disabled). Reverted to v0.3-1 which is OK.

Hi, I noticed that in the media/file selection window, the Select file to send isn't translated. I couldn't find that string in Transifex either.

Hey, thanks for reporting. I just forgot to make the string translatable. Will be fixed in the next release.

Any way I could make it run automatically with system startup?

At the moment you have to setup at your own a systemd service. Maybe in the future this is part of the installation process. I did not tested it. Just copied from harbour-sailorgram and adjusted:
Edit: Fixed harbour-sailfishconnect.service

That's not good :-/
Try to delete the config folder: /home/nemo/.config/harbour-sailfishconnect
Or run SailfishConnect on the terminal: /usr/bin/harbour-sailfishconnect
and send me the output.

What do I need, to send SMS from my linux mint desktop? I have KDE Connect and most things seem to work, but no SMS. I can see the plugin on my phone, but it's not available in KDE Connect on desktop.

I just tested with MConnect and KDE Connect as backend and it worked. At the moment SMS history and contacts is not supported. For example SMS functionality in GSConnect does it not work until this is implemented. But yes, I also do not see it in the KDE Connect plugins dialog. Maybe it's a bug, because it's possible to send messages.

I have KDE-connect SMS 20.12.1 being empty and the refresh hangs forever. This is opensuse Tumbleweed with SailfishOS 3.4.0.24. Should I submit a bug report? Or is this a feature request? There is no way to send SMS. It just remains an empty box while saying "Loading conversations from device". Refresh does'nt change anything.

Sending SMS is pretty much broken at the moment and never really worked like one would expect.

Ok, thanks! I'll try again.
Btw... I got Swedish translation ready to use, if you confirm my request at Transifex, or do you prefer PR at GitHub?

Transifex is the prefered way. Swedish is now accepted.

There seems to be a size limit for file transfer, but I didn't manage to determine its exact value.

There should not be any. The feature is not as stable as it should, but I'm working on it.

Useful to know, at least for Ubuntu users. These ports must be open on desktop side:

That is very generell. I would specify which machine(s)/IP(s) is allowed to connect.

Thanks for your app, it enhances usability of my phone a lot.
There's one issue that puzzles me, just don't know if it's me or for everyone: sailfish-connect and kde-connect don't see each other if the phone is connected via USB / developer-mode. I can contact the instance via `openssl s_client ...` so it does not seem to be a network issue. Connection via wifi work without any issue.
