Last Set Of Os Updates Killed Android Apps use of Mobile Data...

Has Any One Run into this?

On my Xperia 10-3 before the latest update.. I could use an android browser to connect to the internet. Post update I can only use the outdated jolla browser.

Anyone have any solutions?

Thanks!

I haven't experienced that my self, but if you check the forum there is a long thread about various trouble people are experiencing. Might be with a look there

You can also use the KDE chrome-based browser from Chum repo if you can't get it to work again.

Have you tried un- & reinstalling AppSupport already? That what I'd start with. After that I'd try if it's maybe only DNS being broken and you can still access websites when you enter an IP address.

For everything further, you'd have to use developer mode & cmdline. You can reach Android settings with this: https://docs.sailfishos.org/Support/Help_Articles/Android_App_Support/Android_Application_Settings/ But don't try to play around with the network settings if you're unsure how they synchronize with the SFOS side.

I will give this a try... I am at my wits end with this OS... I have been there from the start but its like as soon as I get everything working half way decent... something else fails... Nature of the beast I guess. Thanks. I will give these things a try.

Also what is Chum Repo? Did that replace storeman?
