Re: Jolla at MWC 2017

If it was not for Alien Dalvik, I would have abandoned Sailfish OS as a daily driver quite a while ago. I am happy to see native replacements for Android apps in the future, but right now the user...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

fastboot mode also requires a working bootloader on the device. If you break the bootloader partition or the partition tables, it will be bricked. In case you only break the btrfs partition at...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

As of 1.0.3.8 there is now an option to unlock the bootloader in the recovery menu. You have to enter your device lock code if it is set.

Re: Jolla Phone and Google Play Store

With installing Google Play Store you also install some Google services (for automatic updates, location services, etc.). Some might be afraid to do that for privacy reasons.

If you only want some...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

If you want to experiment with a different OS, you could just boot from fastboot with "root=/dev/mmcblk1pX" as kernel argument and run from the SD card.

For a clone of the "sailfish" partition, it...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

I took an image of the entire /dev/mmcblk0 from the "fastboot rescue mode". This way I can view the partition layout with parted or gdisk on my computer without risking any damage by accidental...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

And right after I posted this I found out that it actually did work – I just wasn't aware of it. :-)

When the charging screen comes up, I need to press the power button long enough once to...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

I dared to unlock my bootloader again by restoring my saved mmcblk0p17. To verify that it works, I tried to boot the unmodified /boot/boot.img image by copying it over to my computer and then issue a...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

A factory reset actually reflashes the bootloader that is shipped in the kernel-adaptation-sbj package through the scripts in /var/lib/platform-updates. Most interestingly, these scripts actually...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

I am wondering what if newer devices are shipped with the latest firmware from the start? I guess they won't have the chance to go back to an older factory snapshot…? I think all the anger here just...

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for Jolla

This is disappointing. :(

On the one hand Jolla encourages hacking of the device to developers (which are probably the sole user base at the moment?). On the other hand they now want to secure the...

Re: Jolla User Experience Thread

I really miss the always-on AMOLED of the N9. This approach sounds like it could fit my use case to check clock and notifications quickly.
