So this is the stable version now I guess.
I'm not subscribed to early access updates.
I've had that notification for ~2 days now.
I'm not in a hurry to perform the upgrade - been looking around here and on https://forum.sailfishos.org/ to see what people have to report.
Nothing here so far?
Some worrying threads on forum.sailfishos, but they all seem to apply to the early access version (3.4.0.22 afaics). Also this one, but it has some interesting info towards the end.

Nevertheless, I'd like to hear how the stable version update went for people (who didn't get the developer update)?

Maybe some tips? Making a backup beforehand is a given.

I'm on Xperia XA2.

I am on EA release, make sure you make a backup first and that your root partition has more than 500MB free space.

Also remove if you have applied any special patches.

No doubt seen this post from "rinigus" concerning Xperia Tama port?

Gemini PDA seems OK on 3.4.0.24 but then as no AD a lot less to go wrong with update. As usual if you have optional rear camera it only works using MiracuCam.

I'm on XA2, and I have some problems. I use the XA2 as my daily driver, and regret the upgrade at this moment. I am not in the EA programme.

- AlienDalvikControl had an invalid uninstall script at some point of time, and as a result I had two versions installed.
- The upgrade process said there were problems, and the upgrade would not follow through (or something similar). Well, the upgrade was here to stay, and I had a black screen. SSH was available, and with some help I uninstalled AlienDalvikControl. Then things seemed OK.
- OKBoard made the screen black above the keyboard. After disabling more things seemed OK.
- Except Email did not update, nor fruux (CalDAV, CardDAV). A proven solution is to delete the account, and create it again. Unfortunately I cannot create new Email accounts: the busy indicator never stops. I haven't got any response so far to resolve this.

So phone, bluetooth, browser, Whatsapp all work. But no Email, which is very unpractical.
(I added a new fruux account just now, hurray!)

For XA2 you need 700 MB of free space in root.

Not too keen on the new Email UI. I understand why they did it (to share the HTML engine with Browser), but I still do not like that the pull down menu had to go.

I've patched that part of the email client. Bye-bye buttons, hello pulley menu.

If users are interested, leave a Thanks! here. If enough users show interest, I'll upload to Openrepos.

@pichlo and @Markkyboy, I don't like it either(buttons). It's a nightmare.

Just upgraded my X, everything seems to work but the top menu on the homescreen is maybe 90% transparent and barely visible. Anyone seen this or know how to fix it?

Happens on my X all the time. It was quite freaky the first time but I've learned that restarting Lipstick before it's too late solves the problem.
