I think it could have something to do with having mobile internet connection on. I turned it on earlier today and the battery seems to have gone down a lot quicker than with only Wi-Fi on. I'll do some more tests when I get the time to see if it really impacts battery life that much even when in the presence of a known Wi-Fi access point (so it wouldn't be using the data connection).

Couldn't really find a better thread for this and I didn't think it was worth its own thread, but:

Who is this guy, and why is he so unbelievably obsessed with the browser? How does he not know that a title of a post is not meant to be a short story? Why does he make so many requests? Why does he keep making so many edits to his posts to correct things literally no one cares about (word order that isn't even incorrect, changing commas to periods and such)?

Truly, this is the greatest mystery I have ever encountered (other than 'Cicada 3301', which I also recently stumbled upon).

****ing *****s :mad:
can't even transfer a backup from one device to another

Yes, though it is possible to zip the .local folder and transfer it using mtp protocol or over wifi using sshfs, ie the geeks way. Or copy it to a sdcard.

I've always backed up .local because it is how i do on a computer, no need to rely on specialized and limited gui.

?

1. Create backup on device 1
2. Copy/move backup to microSD/computer/'cloud'
3. Copy/move backup from microSD/computer/'cloud' to device 2
4. ???
5. Profit!

Do you want to be able to share it straight from device 1 to device 2? Locally? With Bluetooth? That seems like something almost no one would ever use - unless I'm mistaken and there are many people who carry around two identical devices and move backups from one to the other for whatever reason. I have a feeling I'm not.

Edit: ah, just realised the backup only gets compressed when you move it to the microSD card, otherwise it's just the .vault directory. In any case I don't think copying a directory is particularly complicated, my parents can do it.

Re: Jolla User Experience Thread
 

First, I have no idea what this has to do with openness (agreed with Dave).

Second, of course you can do that. Just transfer the backup folder (.vault) to the other device.

Finally, since you were wrong anyways, wouldn't be better to post something like "Hey guys, how do I transfer the backup from one device to another? Thanks.", instead of this nonsense?

Re: Jolla User Experience Thread
 

My thoughts exactly... I am using cron+rsync to back up my home every night and dropping that back to any device is piece of cake really... :D

Re: Jolla User Experience Thread
 

that's what i did exactly
had to reset the device afterwards
been doing that for the last 24 hrs so, just one more time, right?
this time i added a step, i 1st made a backup on device 2
maybe something needs to be "initialized"?

see above...
