There is a problem with 2.0.1.11 image with the phone call echoing at the call recipient end. Someone mentioned that 2.0.4.13 fixes this issue and from my limited use, I can kind confirm it is resolved. Now if someone knows and can tell us how we can apply that fix to 2.0.1.11 image or after installation, that would be great.

Hey, sfdroid is running :)
Can I use whatsapp and get push notifications?

Whatsapp works

And also how can I update SFOS to the latest version? System update tells me the version is the latest, which is not true...

Just follow the instructions on the first post.

Set RELEASE=2.0.5.6

Yes, but without notification in Sailfish, as he asked

Yes I have seen that. But I am new in this topic so I do not know how to start/use that script. I think somehow with the terminal in SFOS.

I would establish a ssh connection with your computer. You can do this in >Settings>'Developer mode'. It makes the upgrade process much easier. You can then connect to the phone with 'ssh nemo@<phone_ip>'.

The upgrade process is not a script, but a chain of different terminal commands. I suggest that you did not yet enable some 'openrepos' repositories.

First... Make sure that 'zypper' is installed

Code:

devel-su pkcon install zypper

Upgrade procedure

1. assign version to variable

Code:

RELEASE=2.0.5.6

2. put the device in release mode

Code:

ssu release $RELEASE

3. Add the Nexus 5 'adaptation0' repository

Code:

devel-su sed -i -e 's#^adaptation=.*$#adaptation=http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:/RealJohnGalt:/testing:/hammerhead/sailfish_latest_armv7hl/#' \

/usr/share/ssu/repos.ini

4. delete/add/enable 'mw' repository (3 commands)

Code:

ssu dr mw

ssu ar mw http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/devel:/hw:/common/sailfish_latest_armv7hl/

ssu er mw

5. list repositories (check your changes)

Code:

ssu lr

6. clean/refresh database (2 commands)

Code:

devel-su zypper clean -a

devel-su zypper ref -f

7. start upgrade (That will take a long time. At least 1 hour or even more.)

Code:

version --dup

At some point, the upgrade will stop and 'hang'. Probably at a package similar to 'sociald-onedrive-signon' or so. The upgrade should be more than 80% done (that is my experience). Remember that package name... (write it down somewhere) and abort the installation with 'CTRL+C'.

8. sync/reboot (2 commands). You may have to force shutdown with a 'long press' on the power button.

Code:

sync

reboot

9. reinstall last package

Code:

devel-su zypper in -f <last package>

10. continue with 'version --dup' / sync / reboot

Code:

version --dup

sync

reboot

The upgrade should now be complete. In case the store is not working, disable the 'adaptation0' repository and refresh the database...

Code:

devel-su dr adaptation0

devel-su zypper ref

Update: I changed the procedure to match the indications of the first post in this thread.

@ minimec

Nice guide!

The installation up to the crash at around 80% takes around 2 hours...you'll have to abort the installation yourself with 'CTRL+C'.

I always do a 'version --dup' again to install the missing packages, it only takes a few minutes.

Re: SailfishOS 2.0 Nexus 5 CM12.1 Alpha1 | Sfdroid Pre-Alpha/Early Preview

I compiled a new kernel of the cyaonegnmod 12.1-CAF source.

Kernel boots, but lipstick doesn't start.

I get the following error message in journalctl:

Code:

localhost mce[740]: modules/display.c: mdy_stm_step(): ui 

start failed, retrying

Any ideas?

Yeah. I did that too, but had problems two times now. Last time was the upgrade to 2.0.5.6. It installed 'mesa-llvmpipe' and removed a lot of packages of the 'adaptation0' repository. I lost the whole lipstick GUI interface and had to debug...

Update: The problem I faced may be related to the fact, that I disabled the 'adaptation0' repository too early.

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=215

With those fixes, it doesn't echo, and the microphone sounds great. Those edits aren't necessary in the newer hardware adaptation, but I guess you need it for sfdroid. Let me know if I can be of further assistance! :D
