Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
the restore most likely worked at least to be able to fastboot - to get a command prompt. The question now is, what was done when having command prompt?
|
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
if you try what was posted in
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...4&postcount=54 then ifconfig eth1 192.168.42.18 netmask 255.25.255.0 up telnet 192.168.42.17 you should be at coomand prompt and perhaps stskeep can help from there? |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
after fastboot it says <waiting for device>
meanwhile I emailed the jolla care ;) |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
did you
1 power off device 2 hold vol down (keep holding) 3. plug in usb cable |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
if i do this way the phone displays fastboot mode, manufacturer and product
then sudo ifconfig -a doesn't show eth1 as an option and fastboots output is: FAILED (remote: access denied. need privilege!) if i 1 shut down 2 hold volume down 3 press power on 4 plug the usb it displays only the jolla logo and sudo ifconfig -a shows eth1 too after fastboot it says <waiting for device> |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
then you still have the locked bootloader. which cant do a good reset in your case (what we tried before).
I think now unfortunately your only option is Jolla Care |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Anyway to do this on a windows machine?

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Long story short:
My jolla phone started acting a bit strangely so i decided to restore it to factory settings. it "never" finished ( i waited about an hour) and i pulled the battery ( thinking i am a complete ***** ). restarted the phone. And BootLoop. I then started the recovery trough telnet and after six hours it had restored the / and /home images but was "hanging" on: [CLEANUP] Umounting /mnt I have now booted the image provided in this thread and tried mounting /dev/mmcblk0p28. it doesn't take long for ls to "hang" and a quick inspection with top reveals that 50% CPU [btrfs-cache-1] A quick google search provides this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...s/+bug/1088986 so anyone have any idea what i can do to recover my device? I emailed care 3 days ago. But they probably have there hands full. And it would be great to not send the phone back to Jolla. Thanks in advance. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
update:
After a couple of hours the btrfs-cache-1 probably got done with whatever it was doing. and i could unmount the root filesystem cleanly. I started the recovery process one more time and this time it completed after about an hour. still boot loop though.. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
nieldk: Now I must use this pages for factory reset (fun with usb0/eth3] - phone not fully started after reboot with your bluez package from openrepos ... maybe will be better remove this package from openrepos .. IMHO Jolla not finished start without BT control .. FYI.

But, surely, anything can happen with any application. And, situation being that we have no flashable base image - well, dont do stuff that touches the core functions if the device. Plenty of things can mess up a working device. Should I remove from my openrepos? well, perhaps I should delete all my packages from there, and keep ny own local one. Quite tired of wanba-bees that blame devs for **** they dont know about! |

I do not blame you of something. I wrote this For Your Info - maybe problem is exist. Maybe not. I write warning - because we don't want any less-experienced owners in this situation - right? :) This "thing" with bluez package only need some time: - after update BT not working .. some libs needed ? => we must do some research. - i was made only one change before this problem - update bluez => reboot in this state (BT not working) => my device is in boot stuck (not boot loop) - yes maybe this is problem combination with some other - yes sad is: we have no easy re-flashable device .. I will make some next tests .. :) |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Is that a common syndrome or side-effect for some linux-devs, being all touchy and behaving like offended primadonnas? Seen it one too many times here and other forums now.
People ARE greatful for what you great devs here do, but it should be allowed to make comments that indicates problems with the work ffs without getting the evil eye. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
The major issue is not being able to reflash to stock factory image because of Qualcomm's restrictive practices.
Many problems could be avoided if owners had full control of their own hardware and firmware and so could properly wipe clean and start from fresh. I appreciate that Jolla have done the best they could in this respect, given previous manufacturers let downs, and have provided a physical device to work with for actual hands on development. Hopefully jPhone2 or 3 will be fully FOSS compliant and free of secret blob firmware. In the meantime I hope Jolla are lobbying hard to get Qualcomm to relase this code as open source like they already did for ThinkPenquin's WLAN USB dongle. It can be done:) Richard |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Even if its a blob, why would it prevent jolla to create a flash-image ? obviously they flash the device themselves. Was it this partitioning thing that was troublesome or what. Not really getting this.
|
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
It seems to an issue of licence conditions imposed by Qualcomm.

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Perhaps a sticky thread would be useful which advices users to backup their devices with dd and recover the unlocked bootloader.
as there are more and more bricked devices this could prevent at least some users from bricking the fragile Jolla which is easily stuck in bootloop |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
It's not possible to extract the image from a phone?
Silly question? Sorry, noob here :D |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
it is there is even a guide but it is quite lost in this forum
|
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
I guess you are speeking of your guide : https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Sai...prebuilt_image
Unfortunately, this is not for me: I have windows :( Well, it seems I need to go the Linux way... for a lot of reasons. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Boot loop here as well.
Code:
dmesg [ 1273.480188] usb 2-1: new high-speed USB device number 8 using ehci_hcd Code:
sudo fastboot -i 0x2931 boot boot-telnet-initrd.img Code:

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
My Jolla is R.I.P. Stuck in 5 second logo ON, 1 second off reboot loop no damn way to recover it seems.

You can however boot recovery and to some factory reset

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Yea, we need unlocked bootloader asap or a way to flash the device on our own. This reboot loop and send them in to care sucks hard.

My Linux box find "new USB device" but Jolla seems not activate USB network profile but find unmountable /dev/sdb hmmm Code:

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
This situation is stinky. Unacceptable.
If Jolla wants to make his mark in the smartphone world, they need the continued support of developers. Not being able to recover easily from a boot loop certainly doesn't help. For the next SW update, I would like to see only 1 improvement: to be able to recover from a boot loop. No fancy features. Just this. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
If using developer mode this is the correct ip when connect to Jolla:
Code:
sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.2.14 netmask 255.255.255.0 up Code:
re you really SURE? If you continue, ALL DATA (pictures, videos, messages, accounts and all the personal data) stored in the device memory WILL BE ERASED! [y/n] |

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Upgraded to latest release. Working fine for a few hours. Then started camera app and phone crashes and is in constant reboot loop.
What are the procedures with the latest build? |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop

I took a photo (at home) and BOOM phone died and started reboot. 5 seconds Jolla logo 1 second off. So I am not sure your problem is related to upgrade... It may be something else some wierd app writing to EMMC all the time? I dont know but something is wierd when happens to three persons in very short time. Also another issue the wheater in sweden is snowy as hell... maybe our Jolla does not like the wheater. Now if thats the issue Jolla has BIG problems.... Hope not... |

Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
For people not in Finland with bricked devices and no response from Jolla care, I'll just give this email adress:
huolto@optimaservice.fi That's the direct email for the repair service Jolla has contracted for their devices. Note that I haven't had these problems (Just in case this isn't well known on TMO.) Sending email in english is almost certainly no problem (or in swedish/scandinavian language). Here's the english version of their homepage: http://optimaservice.fi/en/ And press release about Jolla collaboration: http://optimaservice.fi/en/optima-se...join-forces-2/ |

Reset phone to factory settings Reset Phone Because I still use old firmware and first option fails see above log. So in my case I have to send it so they can flash it via jtag. Nice to see they add more options in newer firmware but I hope we dont have to use those to often because if I had to btrfs recovery all the time as "normal user" something is very very wrong... Also question is why this happens then take photos even with latest firmware... |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
Instructions for those on 1.0.3.8 and with Windows 7:-
Jolla reboot loop solution for windows 7 owners. **PC** You will need telnet. This is not installed by default so :- Open Control Panel => Click on “Programs” => Select “Turn Windows Features on/off” Then select telnet features. You need to ensure RNDIS is installed Best guide I found was here:- http://developer.toradex.com/knowled...-for-windows-7 **JOLLA** Then with Jolla off press the down volume key and keep it pressed Now press the power key and when the jolla logo appear release all keys. Connect USB lead **PC** Type telnet in the windows start menu search bar Telnet window will open type "telnet 10.42.66.66" ----------------------------- Jolla Recovery v0.2 Welcome to the recovery tool! The available options are: 1) Reset phone to factory settings 2) Reboot phone 3) Bootloader unlock [Current state: locked] 4) Shell 5) Try btrfs recovery if your device is in bootloop 6) Exit Type the number of the desired action and press [ENTER]: *I tried option 5* 5 Done Press [Enter] to reboot the phone... Rebooting... Connection to host lost. Press any key to continue...* Phone reboots and all working well Good luck. |
Re: Jolla device in a boot loop
...
5) Try btrfs recovery if your device is in bootloop ... :) Yeah! Very happy with this SW update :) Hopefully this option will help in most cases. |
