Hi, there is some problem with new OS update 2.0.1.7. Folder icons are disappeared.

The patch will be removed on system update (in fact you should have unapplied the patch yourself before updating, as Jolla always recommends in release notes). Without patch, icons from folders disappear. But the problem is that reapplying patch doesn't seem to work on 2.0.1.7, have the same issue.

Can't apply the patch in 2.0.1.7 - fast update would be worth 5 bucks ...

Getting a bug where app drawer become empty.
How to reproduce : open app drawer, open one app ( warehouse in my case, cause the launching time is long > for the bug ) open right now app drawer again, go to a folder, launch an app.

1/2 time, all my apps and folders disappear from app drawer.

Currently rebuilding my environment after factory reset and SFOS update to 1.1.7.28 (not ready for 2.0.xx)

Missing a compatibility table for this patch and some others: try, fail, try next, fail, etc. Cumbersome. Note: v0.1.4.1 is OK with SFOS 1.1.7.28.

objectifnul's picture

I know. It's a problem.

 The only idea is to find a better home for your Jolla Phone, where new owner will use it with more love than you :)

objectifnul's picture

My opinion: Jolla is the worst phone in the world, except any other phone in the world ;-)

Then you need to sell it for sure, don't need to hurt yourself.

objectifnul's picture

Not sure you understood what I meant. This. Phone. Is. Not. For. Sale.

Simply because there is no better phone on earth..

Excuse me, it seems that the patch has a minor bug. When deleting app from folder page, remorse timer popup is on the previous page.

coderus's picture

sailfishos-launcher-combined-patch-0.2.5-1.noarch.rpm has an issue for me with the labels misplaced oddly. The default value was just fine, as they now overlap if you go up to 7 rows.

coderus's picture

nothing changed with labels in v0.2.5

MoritzJT's picture

Thank you for the fix! Could we get a choice selector for folder type display used? So we get the choice between page and folder? Thank you :-)

coderus's picture

no

Have you thought about chaning height of that menu drawer when tapping on screen if no app is running? It now shows like 1 and 1/10 rows instead of just first one, I guess changing current height to icon height would fix this. Thanks for fixing orientation, you're doing good work here. :)

coderus's picture

now is when? what configuration you using?

Maciek's picture

5 columns, 7 rows, changed font and icon size, 90% zoom value, themed background 100% opacity. And now it looks like that http://i.imgur.com/40vQ7Ak.png, I expected to see just the first row. (I just thought about a feature, you could add an option to show more than one row in that drawer. )
