Did you check that your phone is possible to unlock?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWPY...youtu.be&t=34s

I had this same error message and I solved this buy enabling "allow OEM unlock"(= something like that - I can't remember exact name) from settings. After this I was able to unlock boot loader.

Of course you need your own unique unlock code but I guess that has been used.

What am I still missing?

Just to make a check list :
  • The Jolla phone is updated to the latest 34.3.A.0.228 or .238 firmware (Important to do first because after unlocking the boot loader, OTA won't work as easily)
  • Developer menu is activated
  • USB debugging is on
  • 3rd party application are authorizsed
  • OEM unlocking is authorized
  • You have registered your IMEI on Sony's website
  • You've obtained a long hexadecimal code in return from Sony
  • Your phone was first shutdown
  • Afterwards (wait 10 seconds at least), your phone was turned on in Fastboot mode (hold "volume up" while plugging the USB cable)
  • the Xperia is in Fastboot mode (no message on the screen, the LED is blue instead of green

At that moment you should run the fastboot command in your command shell (in cmd.exe) :
fastboot.exe oem unlock 0x<hexadecimal code>

Note that depending on how windows works, this might require admin rights (I have no idea, I use Linux. Maybe you'll get a UAC security prompt ? Or you need to "Run as..." cmd.exe to start the shell in admin mode ?)

I always thought that the official limitation to 32 GB was because Jolla wants to mitigate to Microsoft for the exFAT licences (which you are obliged to do for cards >32 GB), but maybe there is more to it?

there is no physical different between SDXC and SDHC card, they absolutely speak the same protocol (MMC).
the only difference is a logical/marketing one :
- SDHC are <= 32 GB and are sold pre-formatted with FAT32.
- SDXC are > 32 GB and are sold pre-formatted with exFAT (which is patented and cannot be provided by Jolla).

(that's different from plain SD cards which use a slightly older version of the protocol, that can only address card up to 1GB, or up to 4GB with a few hacks. the difference betwen SD and SDHC/SDXC is a bit similar to the introduction of LBA and LBA48 in harddisks).

this current situation is an entirely different problem : the card and the chipset are negociating a clock frequency to talk to each other (MMC uses a separate clock trace) - at least that's what it seems given the differences in dmesg between my card and the problematic card.

It currently seems that if the kernel is 3.10.84, this step fails (bug seems to be known in Ubuntu communities).
if the kernel is more recently (probably like the one packaged in Android 7.1.1 Nougat by Sony), this bug seems patched.
At least, that's what looks the most likely given the problems (card always works in stock android system and fails after Sailfish X flashing).

It just randomly happened the this card happens to be a 128GB one and also happens to have the frequency error.

But other people on TJC have successfully used a different models (the 256 Evo+ from Samsung).

Have you made this step described on Sony's "How to unlock bootloader" site?:

Quote:

"To be able to unlock your Xperia X, prepare it by following these steps:
Go into Settings > About phone and tap seven times on Build number to enable developer options.
From Settings, go into Developer options and enable OEM unlocking."
If not have you read this on Jolla's instruction site:
Quote:

Please make sure you read the whole page of instructions before starting.
Reading instructions is mandatory to be successful!

I met this issue ( on F5121, not F5122 ) after each reboot, network settings where lost ( roaming and "delivered" status settings where always disabled )
Got to use the trick for ofono config file to get them persistent between reboot. ( file owner and group radio:radio AFAIR )
Maybe it could help you :)

Sorry to redpill you, but SailfishOS has always been built on systemd and some non-trivial benefits (like a faster boot time when compared to Android) depend on it.

Jolla developers wisely chose Wayland protocol instead of the 30-year-old X11, systemd init manager over initscripts, Qt over Gtk/Gnome, because they were building a modern Linux phone, not a desktop PC, even less a server, even less a *BSD machine. And that happened even if Wayland and systemd were not yet considered - back in 2012/2013 - well-tested and feature-complete.

The systemd hate, FUD and criticism come from luddites' worst nightmares, from ancient bug-reports (especially from misconfigured/mispatched systems), and from the wrong assumption that previous methods (like the boot script files approach) give the same level of performance, safety, manageability, speed. Basically the same kind of argument when back in 1992 Linux kernel was criticized for being monolithic by the author of Minix.

Booting a system is a non-trivial task (dependencies, ordering, parallelization, logging...) and not only systemd takes care of everything in a fast, safe and sound way, it also keeps compatibility with oldschool SysV/LSB scripts and adds in quite a number of security features based on Linux kernel features (for example capabilities restrictions) without the need to patch libraries and services. The latest systemd release adds in IP traffic accounting and dynamic users, two features found in Android, also in the Android layer on your old Jolla1) that Jolla guys may apply to native apps without modifying them.

Disclaimer: I use systemd in my job. Since 2014 it saved me countless hours debugging coworkers issues (did he use a wrong userid? early start? forgot to release permissions? wrong pidfile directory? accidentally wiped /tmp? logged to a different stream? started before the network was ready?...) A number of bizarre and hard-to-catch bugs disappeared overnight as soon as I switched to systemd; we now use systemd in production on all of our servers). I bet Jolla guys just felt the same way.

I wholeheartedly agree. systemd (like wayland and Qt) is a forward-thinking project. The naysayers remind me of the early detractors of btrfs, dead set on bugs or broken implementation that were fixed many revisions ago.

People don't like change, even though change is necessary for forward momentum. Personally, I'm grateful Jolla didn't go with antiquated technologies to bring us a Linux phone.

I even enjoyed BTRFS, actually. (And I am used to it enough to not having much problems with it.)

Saddly, after being burned by ENOSP problems partially due to no optimally out-of-the-box configured btrfs partition and by badly designed recovery script (please, people, stop trying to use fsck-type programs on CoW and Log-structured FS like BTRFS, ZFS, UDF, F2FS, etc.), it seems that Jolla has decided to stop using it on device since Jolla C.

Too bad...

It would be very nice to use the camera button to start the camera app anytime, like in the old prehistoric Android days.

I think the issues I'm having are both a) getting windows (8.1) to play nicely with the fastboot drivers and b) the instructions for unlocking the bootloader (on the sony video) not matching the download links provided.

On my home PC I've got fastboot working on command line. It sees my phone

That's all it does

Just talking about my personnal experience on Win10, didn't met any issue, except shitty sony steps detailed to unlock i totally agree on this part.
IMO, Jolla should have integrate this part on their how-to and just give the user the Sony url to get the unlocking code.
It would have avoid lots of confusion for everyone.

Re: Sailfish OS (officially) on Sony Xperia devices
 
Another issue (maybe):

When playing sounds in browser or media player (via integrated speakers or headphones) the volume seems to be too high as in 'overamplified'.
For me the lowest volume setting is to loud, and high volume way to high an massively cracking, I guess on the long run it would destroy the speakers.

Is anyone experiencing the same? Resolutions?

My home wifi AP uses channel #13 and SailfishX has no problems connecting. The command iw phy phy0 info on SailfishX says that only 2484 MHz (channel 14) is actually "disabled" (because of the "global" and "Italy" regulatory domains; AFAIK channel 14 is only available in "Japan" regulations), and 5 GHz channels 36 to 140 (5.18 to 5.7 GHz) are also available.

In the "valid interfaces combinations" it clearly shows that "AP" and "Managed" are separate features, thus the hardware does not support being both an access point and a client at the same time.

Using the command iw dev wlan0 link on SailfishX I can see it is now using the channel 13 (frequency 2472 MHz) at 72 MBit/s speed.

Booted the thing in android for the updates and found it is nicely dark on lowest setting. Unprecedented in sfos device i would say.

Linux went without a glitch for me. Just had to install the android tools with a single command, turn off phone, plug it in while pressing volume up (or was it down for fastboot mode?), checking fastboot devices and proceeding from there with flashtool... if i recall correctly.

Re: Sailfish OS (officially) on Sony Xperia devices
 
Maybe just try it the Linux way. If you just have Windows machines. You can download a live-CD and use that.

Anyway I think you've made a mistake putting you phone in flashmode. Otherise there would have been a differnet error than before.

Have you waited for 15 seconds, when you shut down your device. Have pressed Volume up. Has the LED switched to blue after connection?

I didn't make a test against Android, but I can say that the display brightness does go very dark on the lowest setting, definitly much darker than my other SFOS devices (Jolla 1 / Jolla C / Tablet)

Is there any way to enable channel 12 and 13? The firmware flashed to bring the device up to 34.3 version was the Central Europe 1 version, so channel 12 and 13 should not be restricted in those regions, and yet it is. Or does Sailfish restrict it based on the timezone or IMSI?

iw reg set [2 letter country code, eg BE, DK, RU, AU, etc] works but does not survive reboot and it changes back to the original settings.

Further testing seems to show that dead SIMs from a variety of countries do not change the regulation setting, while live SIMs do, and the reg setting is changed to the country of the connected network. One wonders what happens on the Xperia dual-SIM version if one is using two different SIMs in a border area, eg, Uzbekistan (1 - 11) and Kazakhstan (1 - 13).
