Hi My xmpp client [1] makes progress and works very well. But I have problems with connection drops after about half an hour of device inactivity. I tried to send xmpp pings to the server in regular intervalls to keep the connection on. Then I tried to set the keepalive flag on the tcp socket.

Hi With the new Sailfish OS version (3.3.0.16) I noticed a regular drop of an established TCP connection during device sleep. I was able to prevent his by triggering the iphbd regularly in the previous versions using this implementation: [1]. This seems not to work as expected anymore. Also
