Re: Prey antitheft for Jolla
 
I installed prey last week on a Jolla phone, recently cleared and reinstalled. The installation of Prey worked like a charm.

But today it appeared Prey did not see my Jolla for 4 days. I opened the terminal, and entered "prey". Unknown command. So I did the installation process again (and it worked like a charm again). But strange it is...

yes, if it was activated before update on 2.0.2.xx or 2.03.xx
On my Jolla 1 it also working on 2.0.3.14

but if you try to install it on fresh device with 2.0.2 or 2.0.3 it will fail.

Well, I'm still on Taalojarvi 2.01.11. It is working now.

I figured a workaround out. The issue is really not with Prey, but with Jolla lsb_release files are not correct

specifically, we need to change the file

Code:

/etc/hw-release
by adding this line to the top of the file

Code:

Mer release 02011 Jolla
This will allow to setup the account and activate it on Prey servers

Same :/ basically we can get location of device, other than that, we get info on the hardware and so (not so usefull)
Should also return oinfo on connected networks (wlan).

Yep, but this is something that I need to report to Jolla as a bug I believe ;)

Added a screenshot of a report that is send when device is set as missing
